About the OPTICAL DIGITAL IN connector
You may connect an optical digital audio output-
equipped CD player, satellite tuner, or DAT instead of
a DVD player and use an optical fiber audio cable to
digitally record the output.
About the OPTICAL DIGITAL OUT connector
You can connect a CD or DAT recorder that has an
optical digital audio input, instead of a DVD player, to
the FR-V77 for digital recording. Use a standard
optical fiber audio cable for connection. Digital
recording is allowed only for the first generation. (See
“Guide to the serial copy management system” on
page 53.) If OTHER INPUTS is set to CD-R, this
connector does not output digital signals.
About the LINE jacks
In addition to the previous examples, a laser disc
player, satellite broadcast tuner, or VCR may be also
connected. Connect the analog audio output jacks to
the unit’s LINE using the audio connection cable.
Connecting a portable MD player
Refer to the portable MD player’s Instruction Manual.
Connecting an Onkyo compact
disc recorder
The following diagram shows how to connect an
optional Onkyo compact disc recorder to the FR-V77.
Connect its CDR OUT (REC) jacks and IN (PLAY)
jacks to the disc recorder’s INPUT (REC) jacks and
OUTPUT (PLAY) jacks respectively.
The
jack connection enables you to use the
following functions:
• You can control a connected Onkyo compact disc
recorder from the FR-V77’s remote controller.
• When the connected Onkyo compact disc recorder
plays back, the Input Selector on the FR-V77 is
automatically switched to CD-R.
• To connect both CD recorder and a cassette tape
deck to the FR-V77, connect the
connectors of
both devices.
Connecting the power cord
When the power cord is connected to the AC outlet, the FR-
V77 enters stand-by mode. “--:--” appears on the display.
