HDMI Signals
Your Concert AVR-6 / AVR-8 is equipped with seven discrete HDMI in-
puts and dual assignable HDMI outputs. All the HDMI outputs are assign-
able to various display devices, the signals on both will be the same.
Output 1 -
Connect this to the primary display device located in your main
theater - such as a projector or other primary display device.
Output 2 -
Connect this to your secondary display device.
Audio Return Channel
Connect
either
of the 2 HDMI outputs to an HDMI 1.4 display device ARC
(Audio Return Channel) enabled input to receive the audio signals from
the sources connected directly to the display. The ARC source selection
on your Concert AVR-6 / AVR-8 is labeled Display. From the Display Input
Menu in the AVR, set CEC Control to On for your chosen ouput and en-
able the ARC Control to receive the audio from the display.
IR (Infra-red) Remote Control Connections
We have equipped the Concert AVR-6 / AVR-8 with two Infrared (IR)
inputs to allow for maximum control flexibility with standard IR remote
controls. This allows you to place the infrared receiver where it can “see”
the signal from the remote control when the equipment may be hidden.
The IR connections are designed for “modulated” signals and wired for
stereo or mono 3.5mm jacks with “Tip” being the modulated signal and
“Sleeve” being ground.
Zone 1 IR -
This is ideal for when the front panel of the Concert AVR-6 /
AVR-8 is hidden away in some dark closet or equipment rack. To prevent
the possibility of receiving multiple commands, when you connect an IR
receiver to this input, it will disable the front panel IR receiver.
Zone 2 IR -
Allows for control of source and volume functions of Zone 2
12V Trigger Connections
There are two stereo mini-jack 12 volt trigger outputs on the rear panel of
the Concert AVR-6 / AVR-8 which are used to remotely control such things
as the power amplifier turn-on, projector power, screen automation. The
jacks are designed for 3.5mm mono connectors with “Tip” being the trigger
output and “Sleeve” being ground. Each jack is capable of outputting a 12V
70 mA switching signal.
