Installation and Connections
Connecting -compatible AV Components
The
terminal on the RDC-7.1 is for connecting other
IntegraRESEARCH/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 RDC-7.1. 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 RDC-7.1 is in the standby state, if an
-
connected component is turned on, the RDC-7.1 also
turns on and the input source selected at the RDC-7.1
automatically switches to that component.
Direct change function
When the play button is pressed on an
-connected
component, the input source selected at the RDC-7.1
automatically changes to that component.
Power off function
When the RDC-7.1 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 RDC-7.1
remote controller while the RDC-7.1 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/Zone 3).
• 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 RDC-7.1. The other one
can be used to daisy chain with another component.
• With IntegraRESEARCH/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 129).
