Note
1 If your set-top box only has a coaxial digital output, you can connect it to one of the coaxial inputs on this receiver using a coaxial digital audio
cable. When you set up the receiver you'll need to tell the receiver which input you connected the set-top box to (see The Input Setup menu on
page 89).
