Connecting the AV Receiver —Continued
With (Remote Interactive), you can use the follow-
ing 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 components 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 46), 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 appropriate remote control code first
(see page 73).
Notes:
• Use only
cables for connections. cables
are supplied with Onkyo players (DVD, CD, etc.).
• Some components have two jacks. You can con-
nect either one to the AV receiver. The other jack is for
connecting additional
-capable components.
• Connect only Onkyo components to jacks. Con-
necting other manufacturer’s components may cause a
malfunction.
• Some components may not support all functions.
Refer to the manuals supplied with your other Onkyo
components.
The AV receiver has an AC outlet on its rear panel for
connecting the power cord of another AV component.
The other component’s power switch can then be left in
the ON position so that it turns on or off when the AV
receiver is set to On or Standby.
Caution:
Make sure that the capacity of the component that you
connect to the AC OUTLET does not exceed the stated
capacity (e.g., 100W).
Notes:
• Onkyo components with
jacks should be con-
nected directly to wall outlets, not the AV receiver’s
AC OUTLET.
• The socket type and capacity will depend on the coun-
try in which you purchased the AV receiver.
Connecting Onkyo Components
Step 1: Make sure that each Onkyo component is
connected to the AV receiver with an analog
audio cable (connection
in the hookup
examples) (see pages 24 to 35).
Step 2: Make the connection.
Step 3: If you’re using an MD, CDR, or HDD com-
ponent, change the input display (see page
44).
