Operating other Pioneer components
with this unit’s sensor
Many Pioneer components have
SR CONTROL jacks
which can be used to link components together so that
you can use just the remote sensor of one component.
When you use a remote control, the control signal is
passed along the chain to the appropriate component.
1
Important
• Note that if you use this feature,
make sure that you
also have at least one set of analog audio, video or
HDMI jacks connected to another component for
grounding purposes.
1
Decide which component you want to use the
remote sensor of.
When you want to control any component in the chain,
this is the remote sensor at which you’ll point the
corresponding remote control.
2
Connect the CONTROL OUT jack of that component
to the CONTROL IN jack of another Pioneer component.
Use a cable with a mono mini-plug on each end for the
connection.
3
Continue the chain in the same way for as many
components as you have.
Note
1 • If you want to control all your components using this receiver’s remote control, see
Setting the remote to control other components on
page 100.
• If you have connected a remote control to the
CONTROL IN jack (using a mini-plug cable), you won’t be able to control this unit using the
remote sensor.
• See
Using this receiver with a Pioneer flat screen TV on page 68 if you are connecting a Pioneer flat screen TV.
