Preparing Your Receiver
Using One Remote Control
for More than One Unit
If you also have an Optimus professional series CD player, VCR, or cassette
deck with the OSR mark, you can connect its
CONTROL IN
jack to the receiver
so you can control all of your equipment with a single remote control. You can
also use the other component’s remote control by pointing it at the receiver’s
front panel.
1. Connect each component to the receiver as shown in “Connecting Pro-
gram Sources.”
Note:
You must connect the audio cables between the receiver and the
other audio accessory to use your receiver’s remote control to control the
accessory.
2. Connect the cable supplied with the CD player, VCR, or cassette deck
between the receiver’s
CONTROL OUT
jack and the other component’s
CONTROL IN
jack.
3. When you want to control more than one other component using the
receiver’s remote control, daisy-chain the
CONTROL OUT
and
CONTROL
IN
connections as shown.
Installing the
Remote Control’s Batteries
The remote control uses two AA batteries (not included). For the longest battery
life, we recommend alkaline batteries (such as RadioShack Cat. No. 23-557).
1. Press and remove the battery compartment cover.
2. Place two fresh AA batteries in the compartment as indicated by the
polarity symbols (+ and –) marked in the compartment.
3. Replace the battery compartment cover.
Note:
When you plug the cable into a
component’s
CONTROL IN
jack, that
component’s remote sensor does not
function.
Cautions:
• Use only fresh batteries of the recom-
mended size and type.
• Always remove old or weak batteries.
Batteries can leak chemicals that can
damage electronic circuits.
Note:
If the remote’s range is reduced,
replace the batteries immediately.
