INSTALLATION
AVR 354
Figure 32 – HDMI Monitor Output
Component Video:
If the display does not have HDMI inputs, but
does have component video inputs, connect the Component Video
Monitor Outputs to the display (see Figure 33). As with HDMI connec-
tions, the AVR 354 is capable of converting composite and S-video
sources to the component video format, while upscaling the resolution to
as high as 1080i, depending on the display's capabilities. Unlike HDMI
connections, component video connections do not enable the AVR 354
to detect the display's capabilities and the appropriate resolution must
be selected manually, as described in the Initial Setup section.

Composite/S-Video:
If the video display does not have HDMI or
component video inputs, connect the corresponding composite or
S-video Monitor Output to the display. If available, S-video is preferred
over composite video, and if used, the AVR 354 will convert composite
video sources to S-video. See Figure 34.

Consult the manual for your TV to make sure you understand how
to select the correct video input.
Step Six – Plug in AC Power
Having made all of your wiring connections, it is now time to plug each
component's AC power cord into a working outlet.

You may plug one device into the AC Switched Accessory Outlet on the
rear of the AVR 354. See Figure 35. Make sure this device draws no
more than 50 watts. The device should have its mechanical or master
power switch turned on, and it will power on any time the AVR 354 is
turned on. If the device has a clock or must always be on, do not plug
it into this outlet.

Figure 35 – Switched AC Accessory Outlet
Before plugging the AVR 354's AC Power Cord into an electrical outlet,
make sure that the Master Power Switch on the front panel is popped
out so that the word OFF appears on its top. Gently press the button to
turn the switch off. This will prevent the possibility of damaging the AVR
in case of a transient power surge.
The AVR 354 is equipped with a detachable power cord. It allows
you to fully wire your system before installing the AVR, which may be
required for some in-wall entertainment centers or custom applications.
The male end of the cord should be plugged into an unswitched AC
power outlet, and the female end should be plugged into the receptacle
on the AVR 354's rear panel. See Figure 36.

Step Seven – Insert Batteries in Remote
The AVR 354 remote control uses four AAA batteries, which are included.
To remove the battery cover located on the back of the remote,
squeeze the tab and lift the cover.
Insert the batteries, as shown in Figure 37, making sure to observe
the correct polarity.
