Connecting -compatible AV Components
The terminal on the TX-NR801/TX-NR801E is for
connecting other Onkyo components equipped with the
same
terminal. When a component is connected to
the
terminal, it can be operated by the remote
controller supplied with the TX-NR801/TX-NR801E. In
addition, when you connect a component to the
terminal, you can also perform the system operations
given below.
Power on/ready function
When the TX-NR801/TX-NR801E is in the standby
state, if an
-connected component is turned on, the
TX-NR801/TX-NR801E also turns on and the input
source selected at the TX-NR801/TX-NR801E
automatically switches to that component.
Be aware that this function will not work if the power
cord for the
-connected component is connected to
the AC OUTLET on the TX-NR801/TX-NR801E, or if
the TX-NR801/TX-NR801E has already been turned on.
Direct change function
When the play button is pressed on an
-connected
component, the input source selected at the TX-NR801/
TX-NR801E automatically changes to that component.
Power off function
When the TX-NR801/TX-NR801E is placed in the
standby state, all
-connected components are also
automatically put into the standby state.
Also, if you press the ON button on the TX-NR801/
TX-NR801E remote controller while the TX-NR801/
TX-NR801E is turned on, all
-connected
components (DVD players, CD players, MD recorders,
tuners, etc.) are also turned on.
To connect components using the
terminal, simply
connect a remote control cable from this
terminal to
the
terminal of the other component. An remote
control cable with a 1/8 inch (3.5 mm) miniature two-
conductor plug comes with every cassette tape deck,
compact disc player, MD recorder, and DVD player that
has an
terminal.
When performing operations with
-connected
components using the
system, do not use the
remote zone (Zone 2).
For remote control operation, the audio connection
cables must also be connected.
If a component has two
terminals, you can use
either one to connect to the TX-NR801/TX-NR801E.
The other one can be used to daisy chain with another
component.
With Onkyo DVD players, you can enter the pre-
program code so that you can operate the DVD player
directly with the remote controller without connecting
the
terminals (See page 82).
