component to the IR OUT jack on the rear
of this receiver to link it to the IR receiver.
Please see the manual supplied with your IR
receiver for the type of cable necessary for the
connection.
! If you want to link a Pioneer component to
the IR receiver, see Operating other Pioneer
components with this unit's sensor on page
24 to connect to the CONTROL jacks instead
of the IR OUT jack.

Operating other Pioneer
components with this unit's
sensor
Many Pioneer components have SR CONTROL
jacks which can be used to link components
together so that you can use just the remote
sensor of one component. When you use a
IR
remote control, the control signal is passed
IN
along the chain to the appropriate component.
! If you want to control all your components

(DVD)
using this receiver's remote control, see page
56.
! If you have connected a remote control to the
DVR/
IN OUT
CONTROL IN jack (using a mini-plug cable),
you won't be able to control this unit using the
remote sensor.

Important
! Note that if you use this feature, make sure
that you also have at least one set of analog
audio, video or HDMI jacks connected to
another component for grounding purposes.
1 Decide which component you want to
use the remote sensor of.
When you want to control any component in the
chain, this is the remote sensor at which you'll
point the corresponding remote control.
2 Connect the CONTROL OUT jack of that
component to the CONTROL IN jack of
another Pioneer component.
Use a cable with a mono mini-plug on each end
for the connection.

Switching components on and
off using the 12 volt trigger
You can connect components in your system
(such as a screen or projector) to this receiver
so that they switch on or off using 12 volt
triggers when you select an input function.
However, you must specify which input func-
tions switch on the trigger using the The Input
Setup menu on page 28 . Note that this will only
work with components that have a standby
mode.

% Connect the 12 V TRIGGER jack of this
receiver to the 12 V trigger of another
component.
Use a cable with a mono mini-plug on each end
for the connection.
After you've specified the input functions that
will switch on the trigger, you'll be able to
switch the component on or off just by pressing
the input function(s) you've set on page 28.
Note
! VSX-53 only:
It is also possible to have the component
switch not when the input function is
switched, but when HDMI OUT is switched.
For details, see HDMI Setup on page 47 .
