Use a 3-ringed miniplug SR+ cable

1

to

connect the

CONTROL IN

jack of this receiver

with the

CONTROL OUT

of your plasma

display.

Before you can use the extra SR+ features, you
need to make a few settings in the receiver. See

SR+ Setup for Pioneer plasma displays

on

page 60 for detailed instructions.

To make the most of the SR+ features, you
should connect your source components (DVD
player, etc.) in a slightly different way to that
described in this chapter. For each
component, connect the video output directly
to the plasma display, and just connect the
audio (analog and/or digital) to this receiver.

Using the SR+ mode with a Pioneer
plasma display

When connected using an SR+ cable, a
number of features become available to make
using this receiver with your Pioneer plasma
display even easier. These features include:

• On-screen volume display.
• On-screen display of listening mode.
• Automatic video input switching on the

plasma display.

• Automatic volume muting on the plasma

display.

See also

SR+ Setup for Pioneer plasma displays

on page 60 for more on setting up the receiver.

1

Make sure that the plasma display and

this receiver are switched on and that they
are connected with the SR+ cable.

See

Using this receiver with a Pioneer plasma

display

above for more on this.

2

To switch SR+ mode on/off, press

RECEIVER

, then the SR+ button.

The front panel display shows

SR+ ON

or

OFF

.

Note

1 • The 3-ringed SR+ cable from Pioneer is commercially available under the part number ADE7095. Contact the Pioneer Cus-
tomer Support division for more information on obtaining an SR+ cable (you can also use a commercially available 3-ringed
mini phone plug for the connection).

• If you connect to a Pioneer plasma display using an SR+ cable, you will need to point the remote control at the plasma dis-

play remote sensor to control the receiver. In this case, you won’t be able to control the receiver using the remote control if you
switch the plasma display off.
