receiver.
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 a 12 volt trigger when you select an input
function. However, you must specify which input
functions switch on which trigger(s) using the Expert
Setup menu (see 12 Volt Trigger on page 95 to do this).
Note that this will only work with components that have a
standby mode.
• Connect the 12V TRIGGER jack of this receiver to
the 12V TRIGGER of another component.
Two connections are possible. Use a cable with a mono
mini-plug on each end for each connection.
After you've specified the input functions that will switch
on the trigger(s), you'll be able to switch the component
on or off just by pressing the input function(s) you've set
on page 95.
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 remote control, the control signal is
passed along the chain to the appropriate component.
Note that if you use this feature, make sure that you also
have at least one set of analog audio 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.
