Playback using the external input (EXT. IN) jacks 1 Set the external input (EXT. IN) mode. EXT.IN EXT.IN Press the EXT. IN to switch the external input. (Main unit) (Remote control unit) Once this is selected, the input signals connected to the FL (front left), FR (front right), C (center), SL (surround left), SR (surround right), SBL (surround back left) and SBR (surround back right) channels of the EXT. IN jacks are output directly to the front (left and right), center, surround (left and right) and surround back (left and right) speaker systems as well as the pre-out jacks without passing through the surround circuitry. In addition, the signal input to the SW (subwoofer) jack is output to the PRE OUT SUBWOOFER jack. 2 Cancelling the external input mode To cancel the external input (EXT. IN) setting, press the input mode (AUTO, PCM, DTS) or ANALOG button to switch to the desired input mode. (See page 42.) AUTO PCM DTS ANALOG MODE ANALOG (Main unit) (Remote control unit) • When the input mode is set to the external input (EXT. IN), the play mode (DIRECT, STEREO, DOLBY/DTS SURROUND, 5/7CH STEREO, WIDE SCREEN or DSP SIMULATION) cannot be set. 2 6.1 / 7.1 SURROUND DIRECT STEREO MODE INPUT ANALOG EXT.IN SYSTEM CALL CALL 1 CALL 2 BACKLIGHT 1 NOTES: • In play modes other than the external input mode, the signals connected to these jacks cannot be played. In addition, signals cannot be output from channels not connected to the input jacks. • The external input mode can be set for any input source. To watch video while listening to sound, select the input source to which the video signal is connected, then set this mode. 47
