A
COMPONENT VIDEO IN 1, 2, 3 (28, 30, 32)
These component video inputs can be used to con-
nect AV components with component video outputs,
such as DVD players.
B
AM ANTENNA (24)
These push terminals are for connecting an AM
antenna.
C
COMPONENT VIDEO OUT (27)
This component video output can be used to con-
nect a TV or projector with a component video
input.
D
FM ANTENNA (24)
This jack is for connecting an FM antenna.
E
RS232 (38)
This port is for connecting the AV receiver to home
automation equipment and external controllers.
F
12V TRIGGER OUT A/B/C (73, 78)
These jacks can be connected to the 12-volt trigger
inputs on other components. These trigger outputs
can each be assigned to an input so that when that
input is selected, a 12-volt trigger signal is output.
G
IR IN/OUT (78)
These jacks are for connecting the remote sensors
included with multiroom kits (sold separately).

A-BUS
A-BUS is a simple, efficient, elegant audio distribu-
tion system. The wiring installation time is signifi-
cantly reduced as only a single CAT-5 wire is run to
each location. A-BUS is easy to use, reliable,
affordable, and most of all, far better sounding than
conventional auto former based volume controls.
ZONE 2 OUT:
Use CAT-5 (eight conductor
twisted) cable to connect directly from the
receiver’s A-BUS RI45 Hub to an A-BUS keypad.
Warning:
DO NOT connect A-BUS output to any computer or
network connections (i.e. ethernet). it will cause
damage to the computer or network components as
24-volt power runs on this same cable to power the
amplifier stages of the amplifier module.
IR OUT:
Another feature of the A-BUS system is
the ability to control source equipment in another
room where the A-BUS module is installed. If you
wish to control another source from the receiver at
the A-BUS keypad by remote control, connect
A-BUS or another brands’s IR emitter on the
receiver’s 40 K terminal. Then place the emitter on
the remote receiver on the front panel.
Typically, the emitter will work when you connect
with a 40 K connector. If it does not work, try a
56 K connector.
DC IN:
Connect A-Bus power supply. Do not use
any other AC Adapter on this connector as it may
cause severe damage to the receiver.
I
MONITOR OUT (27)
The S-Video or composite video jack should be
connected to a video input on your TV or projector.
