Integra DTR-8.3 - Manual (Page 28)

Connecting the power cords from other devices
The DTR-8.3 is equipped with AC mains outlets for connecting the
power cords from other devices so that their power is supplied
through the DTR-8.3. By doing this, you can leave the connected
device turned on and have the STANDBY/ON button on the DTR-
8.3 turn on and off the device together with the DTR-8.3.
The shape, number, and total capacity of the AC outlets may
differ depending on the area of purchase.
Caution:
Make sure that the total capacity of the components connected to the
DTR-8.3 does not exceed the capacity that is printed on the rear
panel (e.g., TOTAL 120W).
RS 232 port
The RS 232 port is to be used in conjunction with an external
controller to control the operation of the DTR-8.3 by using an
external device.
Connections for remote control ( )
The terminal on the DTR-8.3 is for connecting other Integra/
Onkyo components equipped with the same terminal. When a
component is connected to the terminal, it can be operated by the
remote controller supplied with the DTR-8.3. In addition, when you
connect a component to the
terminal, you can also perform the
system operations given below.
Power on/ready function
When the DTR-8.3 is in the standby state, if an -connected
component is turned on, the DTR-8.3 also turns on and the input
source selected at the DTR-8.3 automatically switches to that
component.
Be aware that this function will not work if the power cord for the
-connected component is connected to the AC OUTLET on the
DTR-8.3, or if the DTR-8.3 has already been turned on.
Direct change function
When the play button is pressed at an -connected component, the
input source selected at the DTR-8.3 automatically changes to that
component.
Power off function
When the DTR-8.3 is placed in the standby state, all -connected
components are also automatically put into the standby state.
Also, if you press the ON button on the DTR-8.3 remote controller
while the DTR-8.3 is turned on, all
-connected components
(DVD players, CD players, MD recorders, tuners, etc.) are also
turned on.
To connect components using the terminal, simply connect a
remote control cable from this terminal to the terminal of the
other component. An remote control cable with a 1/8-inch (3.5-
mm) miniature two-conductor plug comes with every cassette tape
deck, compact disc player, MD recorder, and DVD player that has an
terminal.
• When performing operations with -connected components
using the system, do not use the remote zone (Zone 2).
• For remote control operation, the audio connection cables must
also be connected.
• If a component has two terminals, you can use either one to
connect to the DTR-8.3. The other one can be used to daisy chain
with another component.
• With Integra/Onkyo DVD players, you can enter the pre-
program code so that you can operate the DVD player directly
with the remote controller without connecting the
terminals
(see page 66).
