Chapter 8:
KURO LINK
Important
• The procedure for setting the receiver operation
mode differs for the remote controls included with
the SC-27 and SC-25. For the SC-27’s remote control,
set the remote control operation selector switch to
RECEIVER
. For the SC-25’s remote control, press the
button. When “set the remote control to
the receiver operation mode” is indicated in these
instructions, use the respective procedure described
above.
Synchronized operation with a KURO LINK-compatible
Pioneer flat panel TV or Blu-ray disc player or with a
component of another make that supports the KURO
LINK function is possible when the component is
connected to the receiver using an HDMI cable.
For details about concrete operations, settings, etc., refer
to the operating instructions for each component.
• You cannot use this function with components that
do not support KURO LINK.
• We do not guarantee this receiver will work with
Pioneer KURO LINK-compatible components or
components of other makes that support the KURO
LINK function. We do not guarantee that all
synchronized operations will work with components
of other makes that support the KURO LINK function.
• Use a High Speed HDMI™ cable when you want to
use the KURO LINK function. The KURO LINK
function may not work properly if a different type of
HDMI cable is used.
Making the KURO LINK connections
You can use synchronized operation for a connected flat
panel TV and up to four other components.
Be sure to connect the flat panel TV’s audio cable to the
audio input of this unit.
For details, see
Connecting your TV and playback
components
on page 29.
Important
• When connecting this system or changing
connections, be sure to switch the power off and
disconnect the power cord from the wall socket.
After completing all connections, connect the power
cords to the wall socket.
• After this receiver is connected to an AC outlet, a 2
second to 10 second HDMI initialization process
begins. You cannot carry out any operations during
initialization. The HDMI indicator on the display unit
blinks during initialization, and you can turn this
receiver on once it has stopped blinking.
• To get the most out of this function, we recommend
that you connect your HDMI component not to a flat
panel TV but rather directly to the HDMI terminal on
this receiver.
• To use the KURO LINK function, connect this
receiver and flat panel TV using the
HDMI OUT 1
terminal. Connecting the KURO LINK compatible
component using the
HDMI OUT 2
terminal may
result in malfunction. If this happens, turn off the
KURO LINK compatible component’s KURO LINK
setting.
• While the receiver is equipped with four HDMI inputs,
the KURO LINK function can only be used with up to
three DVD or Blu-ray disc players or up to three DVD
or Blu-ray disc recorders.
Cautions on the KURO LINK function
• Connect the TV directly to this receiver. Interrupting a
direct connection with other amps or an AV converter
(such as an HDMI switch) can cause operational
errors.
• Only connect components (Blu-ray disc player, etc.)
you intend to use as a source to the HDMI input of
this receiver. Interrupting a direct connection with
other amps or an AV converter (such as an HDMI
switch) can cause operational errors.
• When
KURO LINK
is set to
ON
, HDMI Input is
automatically set to
OFF
.
