Connecting Your Components
—Continued
With (Remote Interactive), you can use the following special functions:
Auto Power On/Standby
When you start playback on a component connected via , if the AV receiver is on Standby, it will automatically
turn on and select that component as the input source. Similarly, when the AV receiver is set to Standby, all compo-
nents connected via will also go on Standby. This function will not work on components connected to an AC
OUTLET on the AV receiver.
Direct Change
When playback is started on a component connected via , the AV receiver automatically selects that component
as the input source. If your DVD player is connected to the AV receiver’s multichannel DVD input, you’ll need to
press the [MULTI CH] button to hear all channels (see page 43), as the Direct Change function only selects the
FRONT DVD IN jacks.
Remote Control
You can use the AV receiver’s remote controller to control your other -capable Onkyo components, pointing the
remote controller at the AV receiver’s remote control sensor instead of the component. You must enter the appropri-
ate remote control code first (page 63).
Notes:
Use only cables for connections.
cables are supplied with Onkyo players (DVD,
CD, etc.).
Some components have two jacks. You can
connect either one to the AV receiver. The other
jack is for connecting additional -capable
components.
Connect only Onkyo components to jacks.
Connecting other manufacturer’s components
may cause a malfunction.
Some components may not support all func-
tions. Refer to the manuals supplied with your
other Onkyo components.
Connect the AV receiver’s power cord to a suitable wall outlet.
Notes:
Before connecting the power cord, connect all of your speakers and AV components.
•Turning on the AV receiver may cause a momentary power surge that might interfere with other electrical equipment
on the same circuit. If this is a problem, plug the AV receiver into a different branch circuit.
