Connecting Your Components—Continued
With (Remote Interactive), you can use the following 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 with 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 (page 57), as the Direct Change
function only selects the FRONT 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 87).
Notes:
• Use only cables for connections.
cables are supplied with Onkyo players (DVD,
CD, etc.).
• Some components have two jacks. You can
connect either one to the AV receiver. The other
jack is for connecting additional
-capable
components.
• Connect only Onkyo components to jacks.
Connecting other manufacturer’s components
may cause a malfunction.
• Some components may not support all func-
tions. Refer to the manuals supplied with your
other Onkyo components.
• Before connecting the power cord, connect all your speakers and AV components.
• Connect the AV receiver’s power cord to a suitable wall outlet.
• Turning on the AV receiver may cause a momentary power surge that might interfere with other electrical equipment
on the same circuit. If this is a problem, plug the AV receiver into a different branch circuit.
