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 controller is on Standby, it will automatically
turn on and select that component as the input source. Similarly, when the AV controller is set to Standby, all compo-
nents connected via
will also go on Standby. This function will not work with components that are connected to an
AC OUTLET on the AV controller.
Direct Change
When playback is started on a component connected via
, the AV controller automatically selects that component as
the input source. If your DVD player is connected to the AV controller’s multichannel input, you’ll need to press the
[AUDIO SEL] button repeatedly and select Multich to hear all channels (see page 74), as the Direct Change
func-
tion selects the DVD IN L/R jacks.
Remote Control
You can use the AV controller’s remote controller to control your other
-capable Onkyo components. You must enter
the appropriate remote control code first (see page 123). And remember to point the remote controller at the AV con-
troller and not the other component.
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 controller. 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.
• While Zone 2 or Zone 3 is on, the Auto Power
On/Standby and Direct Change
functions do not
work.
• Before connecting the power cord, connect all your speakers and AV components.
• Connect the power cord to the AV controller’s AC INLET.
• Plug the other end of the power cord into a suitable wall outlet.
• Turning on the AV controller 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 controller into a different branch circuit.
