Connecting AV Components—Continued
The following diagram illustrates how to connect an optional Onkyo compact disc recorder.
Connect the FR-X7A CDR OUT jacks to the disc recorder’s IN (REC) jacks. Connect the FR-X7A CDR IN jacks to
the disc recorder’s OUT (PLAY) jacks.
About the OPTICAL DIGITAL OUT connector
You can connect a CD or DAT recorder that has an optical digital audio input to the FR-X7A for digital recording.
Use a standard optical digital audio cable for connection. Digital recording is allowed only for the first generation.
(See “Guide to the Serial Copy Management System” on page 7.)
The
jack connection enables you to use the following functions:
• You can control a connected Onkyo compact disc recorder using the supplied remote controller. You also need
to connect the RCA/phono audio cable.
• To operate the
system, the source name in the display should be CD-R. (Since the default source name in
the display is CD-R, you do not need to change the setting. See page 66 for further information.)
• When the connected Onkyo compact disc recorder plays back, the Input Selector on the FR-X7A is automati-
cally switched to CD-R.
