The table below shows the input and output video

formats available for each AV connector.

• All AV connectors also have audio in. The

VIDEO and

DVR/TV connectors also have audio out.

• The VIDEO and DVR/TV connectors are compatible

with i/o-Link.A, T-V Link, Easy Link, MegaLogic,

SMARTLINK, Q-Link, DATALOGIC, NextTView Link, etc.

The AV Direct mode

The AV Direct mode allows the receiver to pass audio/

video signals arriving at one of the AV connector inputs

to the AV connector outputs without the sound being

output through the speakers connected to the receiver.

This allows you to operate your other components as if

they were connected directly to each other without the

receiver being on. One use for this is if you want to record

from your satellite receiver to your VCR (both connected

to this receiver) without the receiver being switched on.

You could also use the AV Direct mode to watch a video,

using your TV’s speakers for the audio, without switching

on the receiver.

You can switch into AV Direct mode (from either standby

or on) using the AV DIRECT button on the remote

control. However, it’s also possible to set the receiver to

switch the AV Direct function on automatically when an

incoming signal is detected. See also AV Direct setting on

page 33.

The diagram below shows how the AV DIRECT and the

 STANDBY/ON buttons switch the receiver between

standby, AV Direct mode, and on.

Installing the receiver

• When installing this unit, make sure to put it on a

secure and level plane that is stable.

• Don’t place it on the following places:

– on a color TV (the screen may distort)

– near a cassette deck (or close to a device that gives

off a magnetic field). This may interfere with the

sound.

– in direct sunlight

– in damp or wet areas

– in extremely hot or cold areas

– in places where there is a vibration or other

movement

– in places that are very dusty

– in places that have hot fumes or oils (such as a

kitchen)

When making cable connections

Be careful not to arrange cables in a manner that bends

the cables over the top of this unit. If the cables are laid

on top of the unit, the magnetic field produced by the

transformers in this unit may cause a humming noise to

come from the speakers.
