What if I Have Several Kenwood Devices (System Control Chaining)?
Connecting system control cords after connecting a
KENWOOD audio component system lets you take advan-
tage of convenient system control operations.
This unit is compatible only with the [SL16] mode. The sys-
tem control operation is not available if the unit is con-
nected in the [XS8] connection mode.
If your component has the mode select switch, set the con-
nected components to the [SL16] mode.
• You can connect the system control cord to either sys-
tem control jack of the unit.
• Do this operation after completing all connections. (En-
sure that the power plug is not connected.)
System Control connection allows you to:
• See the current status of the selected source device, such
as
Play or Stop
• control connected devices via the remote
• switch the receiver’s input automatically to a connected
device when you start playback from that device
• synchronize recording a CD automatically when you
start playback from the connected CD player

Make sure the units are connected to the correct jacks on
the receiver—for example, no device connected to the
CD2/
TAPE2 MONITOR jacks can use a system control cable.
Some CD players and cassette decks do not support the SL16
system control mode. Do not include these devices in a set
of SL16 chained connections.
Do not mix connections of the two modes: if a device does
not support the mode you are using for chaining, do not
connect that device.
Do not connect system control cables to any device not
specified by Kenwood. Using system control functions with
a device that does not support them can damage the device.
Make sure system control plugs are firmly seated in the ap-
propriate jacks.
