Connecting an IR receiver
If you keep your stereo components in a closed
cabinet or shelving unit, you can use an
optional IR receiver (such as a Niles or Xantech
unit) to control your system instead of the
remote sensor on the front panel of this
receiver.
1
1 Connect the IR receiver sensor to the IR IN
jack on the rear of this receiver.
2 Connect the IR IN jack of another
component to the IR OUT jack on the rear of
this receiver to link it to the IR receiver.
Please see the manual supplied with your IR
receiver for the type of cable necessary for the
connection.
• If you want to link a Pioneer component to
the IR receiver, see Operating other Pioneer
components with this unit’s sensor below
to connect to the CONTROL jacks instead
of the IR OUT jack.
Operating other Pioneer
components with this unit’s
sensor
Many Pioneer components have SR CONTROL
jacks which can be used to link components
together so that you can use just the remote
sensor of one component. When you use a
remote control, the control signal is passed
along the chain to the appropriate component.
• Note that if you use this feature, make sure
that you also have at least one set of analog
audio jacks connected to another
component for grounding purposes.
1 Connect the
CONTROL OUT
of this
receiver to the
CONTROL IN
jack of another
Pioneer component.
Use a cable with a mono mini-plug on each
end for the connection.
2 If the Pioneer component also has a
CONTROL OUT
jack, you can continue the
chain in the same way for as many
components as you have.
Note
1• Remote operation may not be possible if direct light from a strong fluorescent lamp is shining on the IR receiver remote
sensor window.
• Note that other manufacturers may not use the IR terminology. Refer to the manual that came with your component to check
for IR compatibility.
• If using two remote controls (at the same time), the IR receiver’s remote sensor takes priority over the remote sensor on the
front panel.
