Preparing Your Receiver

Using One Remote Control
for More than One Unit

If you also have an Optimus professional series CD player, VCR, or cassette
deck with the OSR mark, you can connect its

CONTROL IN

jack to the receiver

so you can control all of your equipment with a single remote control. You can
also use the other component’s remote control by pointing it at the receiver’s
front panel.

1. Connect each component to the receiver as shown in “Connecting Pro-

gram Sources.”

Note: You must connect the audio cables between the receiver and the
other audio accessory to use your receiver’s remote control to control the
accessory.

2. Connect the cable supplied with the CD player, VCR, or cassette deck

between the receiver’s

CONTROL OUT

jack and the other component’s

CONTROL IN

jack.

3. When you want to control more than one other component using the

receiver’s remote control, daisy-chain the

CONTROL OUT

and

CONTROL

IN

connections as shown.

Installing the
Remote Control’s Batteries

The remote control uses two AA batteries (not included). For the longest battery
life, we recommend alkaline batteries (such as RadioShack Cat. No. 23-557).

1. Press and remove the battery compartment cover.

2. Place two fresh AA batteries in the compartment as indicated by the

polarity symbols (+ and –) marked in the compartment.

3. Replace the battery compartment cover.

Note: When you plug the cable into a
component’s

CONTROL IN

jack, that

component’s remote sensor does not
function.

Cautions:

• Use only fresh batteries of the recom-

mended size and type.

• Always remove old or weak batteries.

Batteries can leak chemicals that can
damage electronic circuits.

Note: If the remote’s range is reduced,
replace the batteries immediately.
