With u (Remote Interactive), you can use the following
special functions:
■ Auto Power On
When you start playback on a component connected via
u while the AV controller is on Standby, the AV
controller will automatically turn on and select that
component as the input source.
■ Direct Change
When playback is started on a component connected via
u, the AV controller automatically selects that
component as the input source.
■ System Off
When you turn off the AV controller, the components
turn off automatically.
■ Remote Control
You can use the AV controller’s remote controller to
control your other u-capable Integra/Onkyo
components, pointing the remote controller at the AV
controller’s remote control sensor instead of the
component. You must enter the appropriate remote
control code first (➔ page 82).
Note
•Use only u cables for u connections. u cables are supplied
with Integra/Onkyo components.
• Some components have two u jacks. You can connect either
one to the AV controller. The other jack is for connecting
additional u-capable components.
• Connect only Integra/Onkyo components to u jacks.
Connecting other manufacturer’s components may cause a
malfunction.
• Some components may not support all u functions. Refer to
the manuals supplied with your Integra/Onkyo components.
• While Zone 2/3 is on, the System Off, Auto Power On and Direct
Change u functions do not work.
See “Recording” for details on recording (➔ page 47).
Note
• The AV controller must be turned on for recording. Recording is
not possible while it’s in standby mode.
• If you want to record directly from your TV or playback VCR to
the recording VCR without going through the AV controller,
connect the TV/VCR’s audio and video outputs directly to the
recording VCR’s audio and video inputs. See the manuals
supplied with your TV and VCR for details.
• Video signals connected to composite video inputs can be
recorded only via composite video outputs. For example, if your
TV/VCR is connected to a composite video input, the recording
VCR must be connected to a composite video output.
• The surround sound and DSP listening modes cannot be
recorded.
• Copy-protected Blu-ray Discs and DVDs cannot be recorded.
• Sources connected to a digital input cannot be recorded. Only
analog inputs can be recorded.
• DTS signals will be recorded as noise, so don’t attempt analog
recording of DTS CDs or LDs.
Connecting Integra/Onkyo u Components
