If you have a S-LINK CONTROL S-compatible Sony TV,
satellite tuner, monitor, DVD player or VCR, use an
audio/video/control S connecting cord or a control S
connecting cord to connect the CTRL S (STATUS) IN (for
TV, satellite tuner, or monitor) or OUT (for VCR, etc.) jack
on the receiver to the appropriate S-LINK jack on the
respective component. Refer to the operating instructions
supplied with your TV, satellite tuner, monitor, VCR, etc.,

of the receiver changes to VIDEO 1 or DVD/LD whenever

CONTROL A1 hookup
• If you have a CONTROL A1
CD player, tape deck, or MD deck
Use a CONTROL A1 cord (not supplied) to connect the
CONTROL A1 jack on the CD player, tape deck, or
MD deck to the CONTROL A1 jack on the receiver.
Refer to "CONTROL A1 Control System" on page 55
and the operating instructions supplied with your CD
player, tape deck, or MD deck for details.
Note
If you make CONTROL A1 connections from the receiver to
an MD deck that is also connected to a computer, do not
operate the receiver while using the "Sony MD Editor"
software. This may cause a malfunction.
• If you have a Sony CD changer with a
COMMAND MODE selector
If your CD changer's COMMAND MODE selector can
be set to CD 1, CD 2, or CD 3, be sure to set the
command mode to "CD 1" and connect the changer to
the CD jacks on the receiver.
If, however, you have a Sony CD changer with VIDEO
OUT jacks, set the command mode to "CD 2" and
connect the changer to the VIDEO 2 jacks on the
receiver.
