6-/8-Channel Inputs: Connect the multichannel analog audio
outputs of a DVD-Audio, SACD ™ , Blu-ray Disc ™ or HD-DVD ™ player
(or any other external decoder) to these jacks to enjoy these proprietary
formats.
Component Video Inputs: If both a video source (e.g., DVD player
or HDTV tuner) and your television or video display have analog compo-
nent video (Y/Pb/Pr) capability, then you may connect the component
video outputs of the source to one of the two component video inputs.
Do not make any other video connections to that source.
Component Video Monitor Outputs: If you are using one of
the Component Video Inputs and your television or video display is
component-video-capable, you may connect these jacks to the corre-
sponding inputs on your video display. You will also need to connect
the composite and/or S-video monitor outputs to your video display
to view the AVR 245’s on-screen displays.
RS-232 Serial Port: This specialized connector may be used with
your personal computer in case Harman Kardon offers a software
upgrade for the receiver at some time in the future.
RS-232 Mode: Leave this switch popped out in the Operate position
unless the AVR 245 is being upgraded.
RS-232 Reset: This switch is only used during a software upgrade.
A standard processor reset is performed by pressing and holding the
front-panel Tone button.
Switched AC Accessory Outlet: You may plug the AC power
cord of one source device into this outlet, and it will turn on whenever
you turn on the receiver. Do not use a source that consumes more than
50 watts of power.
AC Power Cord: After you have made all other connections, plug the
AC power cord into an unswitched outlet.
