Operating components not reached by the remote
controller signals (IR IN)
(TX-SR700/700E only)
In order to use the remote controller to control the TX-SR700/
700E from a remote location, you will need to prepare a multi-
room kit (sold separately) such as one of those given below:
• Onkyo’s Multi-Room System kit (IR Remote Controller
Extension System)
• Multiroom A/V distribution and control system such as those
from Niles ® and Xantech ®
If the remote controller signal does not reach the
TX-SR700/700E remote sensor
If the TX-SR700/700E is located inside a cabinet or other enclosure
where the infrared rays from the remote controller cannot enter, then
operation with the remote controller will not be possible. In such a
case, it will be necessary to install a remote sensor at a location
outside of the cabinet where the infrared rays from the controller can
reach.
With this connection, select “Main” at “Preference”
→ “IR IN
Position” (see page 56).
The IR IN input allows you to control the TX-SR700/700E from the
remote zone (Zone 2) with the remote controller even though the
remote zone may be on the other side of the building from the main
zone. The diagram below shows how to make the proper connections
for the remote zone.
With this connection, select “Zone 2” at “Preference”
→ “IR IN
Position” (see page 56).
