Other connections 08 The system will not work if the connected components form a loop. If a loop is detected, the message LOOP CONNECT shows in the display. Figs. 3 and 4 show connections that form a loop. fig. 3 i.LINK cable fig. 4 i.LINK cable Another consideration when connecting i.LINK devices is the speed of the interface. At present there are three speeds; S100 (slowest), S200 and S400 (fastest). This receiver uses the S400 type. Although you can use components with different speeds together, we recommend connecting slower-speed components at the edge of the network if possible (shown by the shaded boxes in figs. 1 and 2). This will keep the network free of bottlenecks. When used within an i.LINK network, this receiver must be on for the i.LINK connection to be maintained. Other components in the network may or may not maintain the connection in standby (none will when the power is completely off)-check the operating instructions supplied with individual components. Note that the audio may be momentarily interrupted if a component in the i.LINK network is switched on/off, or its i.LINK connection is switched on/off. This product complies with the following i.LINK interface specifications: 1) IEEE Std. 1394a-2000, Standard for a High Performance Serial Bus 2) Audio and Music Data Transmission Protocol 2.0 Following the standard for AM824 sequence adaptation layers, the product is compatible with IEC60958 bitstream, DVD-A and SACD. Connecting the multichannel analog inputs For DVD Audio and SACD playback, your DVD player may have 5.1, 6.1 or 7.1 channel analog outputs (depending on whether your player supports surround back channels).1 Make sure that the player is set to output multichannel analog audio. 1 Connect the front, surround, center and subwoofer outputs on your DVD player to the corresponding MULTI CH input jack on this receiver. • Use standard RCA/phono jack cables for the connections. 2 If your DVD player also has outputs for surround back channels, connect these to the corresponding MULTI CH input jacks on this receiver. • Use standard RCA/phono jack cables for the connections. • If there is a single surround back output, connect it to the SURROUND BACK L (Single) jack on this receiver. Selecting the multichannel analog inputs If you have connected a decoder or a DVD player as above, you must select the analog multichannel inputs for surround sound playback.2 RECEIVER INPUT SELECT SYSTEM OFF SOURCE CD DVD TV VIDEO 2 SAT VIDEO1 TVCONT 1 Make sure you have set the playback source to the proper output setting. For example, you might need to set your DVD player to output multichannel analog audio. 2 Use the INPUT SELECT button to select MULTI CH IN. You can also use the INPUT SELECTOR dial on the front panel. • Depending on the DVD player you're using, the analog output level of the subwoofer channel may be too low. In this case switch the receiver into standby, then press STANDBY/ON while holding down VIDEO SELECT on the front panel. This switches between SW IN +10dB (increase of 10 decibels) and SW IN 0dB (default) in the subwoofer channel. Note 1 To listen to multichannel analog audio you'll need to switch the input signal selector to MULTI CH INPUT (see Selecting the multichannel analog inputs above for more on this). 2 • When playback from the multichannel inputs is selected, you can't use Midnight/Loudness, Dialog Enhancement or the SIGNAL SELECT and ANALOG ATT buttons, as well as any of the listening modes (including STEREO and the surround back channel processing). • When playback from the multichannel inputs is selected, only the volume and channel levels can be set. • You can't listen to your speaker B (Second Zone) system during playback from the multichannel inputs. 51 En
