Preparing Your Receiver
Using One Remote Control
f
or 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.”
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.

nstalling the
Remote Control’s Batteries
The remote control uses two AA batteries (not included). For the longest battery
life, we recommend Radio Shack’s alkaline batteries (Cat. No. 23-557).
1. Press and open 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.
