Coaxial connection setting
(assigning the coaxial terminal)
This receiver has two different ways you can connect
your digital video components (like a DVD player,
satellite tuner, or DVR). You can connect them with an
optical or coaxial cords (see p.11). The easiest way to
hook your equipment is using the default settings of this
receiver. In this case, use a coaxial cord to connect your
DVD player. If you use the coaxial terminal for your
satellite or TV tuner (called TV/SAT on the receiver) you
need to assign that component to the remote (that is,
tell the remote that you used the coaxial terminal for
your TV/SAT). The optical terminals’ default settings
will change in accordance with how you assign the
coaxial terminal here. See the next heading for more
information.
Follow steps 1&2 on page 27 (if necessary).
Use the 
+/–
 buttons to choose the component
that you hooked up with coaxial cords.
Press SETUP to advance to the next receiver setting
mode.
Press 
ENTER 
if you want to exit the setting
mode.
Optical connection default settings
You can connect your digital video components (like a
DVD player, satellite tuner, or DVR) with optical or
coaxial cords, as explained directly above and on page
11. However, the optical terminals cannot be assigned,
you must follow their default settings in order to match
your equipment to the remote control buttons (and
display names, etc.) of this receiver. Thus if you
followed the default setting for the coaxial terminal and
hooked a DVD up to that terminal the optical terminal
default settings are:
OPT. 1: TV/SAT
OPT. 2: DVR
If you assigned your TV/SAT (displayed as SAT) to the
coaxial terminal (see “Coaxial connection setting” above
and “Connecting Your Equipment” page 12–14) then
the defaults for the optical terminals will change
(because you cannot have one component assigned to
two different places). Thus they become:
OPT. 1: DVD
OPT. 2: DVR
Follow the default settings when hooking up equipment
to the optical terminals.
