Connecting the AV Receiver —Continued
■ Using Optical or Coaxial Connections
(playback only)
If you connect to a digital audio input, you’ll need to
assign it (see page 43).
• Use an optical digital audio cable to connect one of the
AV receiver’s OPTICAL DIGITAL IN jacks to the
optical output on your recorder, as shown.
OR
• Use a coaxial digital audio cable to connect one of the
AV receiver’s COAXIAL DIGITAL IN jacks to the
coaxial output on your recorder, as shown.
■ Digital Recording
If your recorder has a digital input, by connecting it to
the AV receiver’s optical DIGITAL OUT jack, you can
record digitally. However, because the AV receiver
doesn’t convert analog input signals to digital and vice
versa, only input signals connected to a DIGITAL IN
jack can be recorded in this way.
