assign it (see page 42).

AV receiver's OPTICAL DIGITAL IN jacks to the
optical output on your recorder, as shown.

■ Digital Recording
If your recorder has a digital input, by connecting it to
the AV receiver's optical DIGITAL OUT jack, you can
record digitally. (With the TX-SR702/702E, you can use
its coaxial DIGITAL OUT jack.) However, because the
AV receiver doesn't convert analog input signals to dig-
ital and vice versa, only input signals connected to a
DIGITAL IN jack can be recorded in this way.

Note:
Don't connect the recorder's digital output to the AV
receiver when the recorder's digital input is connected to
one of the AV receiver's digital outputs. Doing so may
create a signal loop and cause a malfunction.
