Connecting -compatible Components
With (Remote Interactive) you can control your -
compatible Onkyo cassette tape deck or MD recorder with
the CR-505’s remote controller, and use the following spe-
cial functions:
■
Auto Power On
When you turn on a component connected via while the
CR-505 is in Standby, the CR-505 automatically turns on
and selects that component as the input source.
This function doesn’t work if the CR-505 is already on.
■
Direct Change
When you press the play button on a component connected
via , the CR-505 automatically selects that component
as the input source.
■
Auto Power Off
When you set the CR-505 to Standby, all components con-
nected via also enter Standby.
■
Controlling Other Components
Other components can be controlled with the supplied
remote controller (see “Remote Controller” on page 10).
■
CD Synchro Recording
An MD recorder or cassette tape deck connected via ,
and set to record pause, will start recording automatically
when CD playback is started on the CR-505.
■
Timer
The CR-505’s timers can be used to automatically start
playback or recording on a cassette tape deck or MD
recorder connected via (see “Timers” on page 28).
■
Sleep Timer
When you set the CR-505’s sleep timer, the sleep timers on
component connected via are also set, so all compo-
nents switch off after the specified period.
To use , you need to connect the CR-505’s connec-
tor to an connector on the other component by using an
cable. An cable is supplied with each -compat-
ible Onkyo cassette tape deck and MD recorder.
Hookup Example:
Notes:
• Use only cables for connections.
• To use
you must make an analog RCA/phono con-
nection between the CR-505 and the other component
even if they are connected digitally.
• If a component has two connectors, you can connect
either one to the CR-505. The other connector is for con-
necting additional -compatible components.
• Connect the CR-505’s connector only to Onkyo
components. Connecting to other manufacturer’s compo-
nents may cause them to malfunction.
• Some Onkyo -compatible components may not sup-
port the special functions described above.
