REAR-PANEL CONNECTIONS 0 Preamp Outputs: Connect these jacks to an optional, external power amplifier for applications where higher power is desired. 1 Subwoofer Output: Connect this jack to the linelevel input of a powered subwoofer. If an external subwoofer amplifier is used, connect this jack to the subwoofer amplifier input. 2 Tape Outputs: Connect these jacks to the Record/Input jacks of an audio recorder. 3 A-BUS Connector: Connect this jack to optional A-BUS®-certified products to extend the multiroom capabilities of your AVR 645. See page 19 for more information on A-BUS. 4 Tape Inputs: Connect these jacks to the Play/Out jacks of an audio recorder. 5 Surround Speaker Outputs: Connect these outputs to the matching + and - terminals on your surround channel speakers. In conformance with the CEA color-code specification, the blue terminal is the positive (+) terminal that should be connected to the red (+) terminal on the Surround Left speaker with older color-coding, while the gray terminal should be connected to the red (+) terminal on the Surround Right speaker with the older color-coding. Connect the black (-) terminal on the AVR to the matching black negative (-) terminals for each surround speaker. (See page 17 for more information on speaker polarity.) 6 CD Audio Inputs: Connect these jacks to the left/right analog audio output of a compact disc player or CD changer or other audio source. 7 Front Speaker Outputs: Connect these outputs to the matching + or - terminals on your left and right speakers. When making speaker connections, always make certain to maintain correct polarity by connecting the color-coded (white for front left and red for front right) (+) terminals on the AVR 645 to the red (+) terminals on the speakers and the black (-) terminals on the AVR 645 to the black (-) terminals on the speakers. See page 17 for more information on speaker polarity. 8 Multiroom Audio Outputs: Connect these jacks to the optional external audio power amplifier and video distribution system that delivers the source selected for multizone distribution. 9 TheBridgeTM Digital Media Player (DMP) Input: With the AVR 645 turned off, connect the optional Harman Kardon TheBridgeTM to this connector. Once this is done and with a compatible iPod® (optional) docked in The Bridge, selecting the The Bridge/DMP input allows you to play audio from the iPod and view navigation menus on the AVR's front panel and any video display connected to the AVR. You may control the iPod's functions and select tracks using the n©, Set Fœ and Transport GIJπ buttons. See page 40 for more information. A Fan Vents: These ventilation holes are the output of the AVR 645's airflow system. To ensure proper operation of the unit and to avoid possible damage to delicate surfaces, make certain that these holes are not blocked and that there is at least 3 inches of open space between the vent holes and any wooden or fabric surface. It is normal for the fan to remain off at most normal volume levels. An automatic temperature sensor turns the fan on only when it is needed. B Full Carrier IR Output: The output of this jack is the full signal received at the Remote Sensor Window ^ or input through the IR Input F including the carrier frequency that is removed from signals at the IR Output C. Use this output to extend IR signals to the input of compatible products either by direct connection or through the use of optional, external IR "blasters". If you are in doubt as to which of the IR Output jacks to use, we recommend that you consult with your dealer or installer, or check with the manufacturer of the external equipment you wish to control. C IR Output: This connection permits the IR sensor in the receiver to serve remote controlled devices with "stripped carrier." Connect this jack to the "IR IN" jack on compatible Harman Kardon equipment. D Center Channel Speaker Outputs: Connect these outputs to the matching + and - terminals on your center channel speaker. In conformance with the CEA color-code specification, the green terminal is the positive (+) terminal that should be connected to the red (+) terminal on speakers with the older color-coding. Connect the black (-) terminal on the AVR to the black negative (-) terminal on your speaker. (See page 17 for more information on speaker polarity.) E Surround Back/Multiroom Speaker Outputs: These speaker terminals are normally used to power the surround back left/surround back right speakers in a 7.1-channel system. However, they may also be used to power the speakers in a second zone, which will receive the output selected for a multiroom system. To change the output fed to these terminals from the default of the Surround Back speakers to the Multiroom Output, you must change a setting in the Advanced menu of the OSD system. See page 46 for more information on configuring this speaker output. In normal surround system use, the brown and black terminals are the surround back left channel positive (+) and negative (-) connections and the tan and black terminals are the surround back right positive (+) and negative (-) terminals. For multiroom use, connect the brown and black SBL terminals to the red and black connections on the left remote zone speaker and connect the tan and black SBR terminals to the red and black terminals on the right remote zone speaker. F IR Input: If the AVR 645's front-panel IR sensor is blocked due to cabinet doors or other obstructions, an external IR sensor may be used. Connect the output of the sensor to this jack. G Switched AC Accessory Outlet: This outlet may be used to power any device you wish to have turned on when the AVR 645 is turned on with the Standby/ On Switch 1. IMPORTANT NOTE: The power consumption of any device connected to the accessory outlet should not exceed 100 watts. Never connect high-power devices such as amplifiers or video displays to the accessory outlet. H Trigger Output: Connect this jack to the "Trigger In" jack of an optional external component such as an audio power amplifier that you want to be controlled to mirror the power state of the AVR 645. When this connection is used, the AVR 645 will automatically send a low-voltage signal to the connected device that turns it on when the AVR 645 is on, and off when the AVR 645 is placed in the Standby mode. The connected component must respond to 6-volt presence as the control signal. I AC Power Cord Socket: Connect the AC power cord here when the installation is complete. To ensure safe operation, use only the power cord supplied with the unit. If a replacement is required, it must be of the same type and capacity. J RS-232 Port: This jack may be used to control the AVR 645 over a bidirectional RS-232 serial control link to a compatible computer or programmable remote control system. Due to the complexity of programming RS-232 commands, we strongly recommend that connections to this port for control purposes be made by a trained and qualified technician or installer. K HDMI Output: Connect this jack to the HDMI input on a compatible HDMI-equipped video display. L HDMI Inputs: Connect the HDMI output of video sources such as a DVD player, set-top box or HDTV tuner to either of these jacks. M Component Video Monitor Outputs: Connect these outputs to the component video inputs of a video display. N Multiroom IR Input: Connect the output of an IR sensor in a remote room to this jack to operate the AVR 645's multiroom control system. O Component Video Inputs: These inputs may be used with any source device that is equipped with analog component video outputs, as assigned through the IN/OUT SETUP menu. See page 24 for more information on configuring the component video inputs. REAR-PANEL CONNECTIONS 9
