This receiver is equipped with four DIGITAL IN terminals—one
digital coaxial terminal and three digital optical terminals—and one
DIGITAL OUT terminal.
IMPORTANT:
• When connecting a DVD player, digital TV broadcast tuner or DBS
tuner using the digital terminals, you also need to connect it to the
video jacks on the rear. Without connecting it to the video jacks, you
can view no playback picture.
• After connecting the components using the DIGITAL IN terminals,
set the following correctly if necessary.
– Set the digital input (DIGITAL IN) terminal setting correctly. For
details, see “6 Setting the Digital Input (DIGITAL IN) Terminals”
on page 25.
– Select the digital input mode correctly. For details, see “Selecting
the Analog or Digital Input Mode” on page 19.
Notes:
• When shipped from the factory, the DIGITAL IN terminals have
been set for use with the following components:
– DIGITAL 1 (coaxial): For DVD player
– DIGITAL 2 (optical): For CD player
– DIGITAL 3 (optical): For digital TV broadcast tuner
– DIGITAL 4 (optical): For CD recorder
• When you want to operate the CD player, CD recorder, or MD
recorder using the COMPU LINK remote control system, connect
the target component also as described in “Analog Connections”
(see page 9).
• When you want to operate a DVD player using the AV COMPU
LINK remote control system (see page 49), connect the DVD
player also as described in “Analog Connections” (see page 12).
Note:
The digital signal format output through the DIGITAL OUT terminal is
the same as that of the input signal. This means that when the DTS
Digital Surround signals are input, the DTS Digital Surround signals
are output.
