Connecting Your Components —Continued
With (Remote Interactive), you can use the following special functions:
■ Auto Power On/Standby
When you start playback on a component connected via , if the AV receiver is on Standby, it will automatically
turn on and select that component as the input source. Similarly, when the AV receiver is set to Standby, all compo-
nents connected via
will also go on Standby. This function will not work on components connected to an AC
OUTLET on the AV receiver.
■
Direct Change
When playback is started on a component connected via , the AV receiver automatically selects that component
as the input source. If your DVD player is connected to the AV receiver’s multichannel DVD input, you’ll need to
press the [MULTI CH] button to hear all channels (see page 37), as the Direct Change
function only selects the
FRONT DVD IN jacks.
■ Remote Control
You can use the AV receiver’s remote controller to control your other -capable Onkyo components, pointing the
remote controller at the AV receiver’s remote control sensor instead of the component. You must enter the appropri-
ate remote control code first (page 60).
Notes:
• Use only cables for connections.
cables are supplied with Onkyo players (DVD,
CD, etc.).
• Some components have two jacks. You can
connect either one to the AV receiver. The other
jack is for connecting additional
-capable
components.
• Connect only Onkyo components to jacks.
Connecting other manufacturer’s components
may cause a malfunction.
• Some components may not support all func-
tions. Refer to the manuals supplied with your
other Onkyo components.
• Connect the AV receiver’s power cord to a suitable wall outlet.
Notes:
• Before connecting the power cord, connect all of your speakers and AV components.
• Turning on the AV receiver may cause a momentary power surge that might interfere with other electrical equipment
on the same circuit. If this is a problem, plug the AV receiver into a different branch circuit.
