INSTALLATION
Figure 31 – Connecting a Device to the Front-Panel Inputs
Audio Components: Connect audio-only devices, such as CD players,
to either the Coaxial or Optical Digital Audio Inputs, or the Analog Audio
Inputs (see Figure 31).
Step Five – Connect the Video Display
IMPORTANT NOTE: Do not connect any video output on the
video display (TV) to any video input on the AVR. Doing so will
cause undesirable video interference.
HDMI Video: If the display has an HDMI input, connect it to the
HDMI Monitor Output (see Figure 32). No other video connections are
required from the AVR to the video display. Analog video sources
(composite, S-video and component) are converted to the HDMI format
and upscaled to as much as 1080p resolution, depending on the
display’s capabilities. Proceed to Step Six.
Figure 32 – HDMI Monitor Output
Component Video: If the display does not have HDMI inputs, but
does have component video inputs, connect the Component Video
Monitor Outputs to the display (see Figure 33). The AVR 3550HD
converts composite and S-video sources to the component video
format, while upscaling the resolution to as high as 1080i, depending
on the display’s capabilities. Select the appropriate resolution manually,
as described in the Initial Setup section.
Figure 33 – Component Video Monitor Outputs
Composite/S-Video: If the video display does not have HDMI or
component video inputs, connect the composite or S-video Monitor
Output to the display. If available, S-video is preferred over composite
video.The AVR 3550HD will convert composite video sources to
S-video. See Figure 34.

Consult the manual for your TV to learn how to select the correct
video input.
Step Six – Plug in AC Power
After making all wiring connections, plug each component’s AC power
cord into a working outlet.
You may plug one device that draws no more than 50 watts into the
AC Switched Accessory Outlet. See Figure 35. Turn on the device’s
mechanical or master power switch, and it will power on any time the
AVR 3550HD is turned on. If the device has a clock or must always
be on, do not plug it into this outlet.
Figure 35 – Switched AC Accessory Outlet
Flip the rear-panel Master Power Switch Off before plugging the AC
Power Cord into an electrical outlet. This will prevent the possibility
of damaging the AVR in case of a transient power surge.
The AVR 3550HD is equipped with a detachable power cord, allowing
you to fully wire your system before installing the AVR. Plug the male
end of the cord into an unswitched AC outlet, and the female end into
the AVR 3550HD. See Figure 36.
