Connect a Video Display Device or Switcher (AVR 760 only) To add video distribution to your multiroom system, connect the Multizone Video Output either directly to the video display in the remote room or to any optional video distribution switchers or amplifiers that may be required. NOTES: • Only composite video is output to the multizone system. • S-video, component or HDMI video sources may not be routed through the multizone system. Make a second, composite video connection for the multizone system. • When connecting the AVR 760 to the remote room’s video display, distance limitations may exist for composite video connections. Although the use of low-loss coax cables may reduce signal loss, optional distribution amplifiers may occasionally be required when long cable runs are used. Connect IR Control Devices to the Zone 2 IR Input For methods A, B and C, connect an IR control device to the Zone 2 IR Input for remote-room control of the multizone system, source devices and volume in the remote zone. An A-BUS system does not require a separate IR control connection. NOTE: Only analog audio sources are available to the multizone system. For digital sources, make a second, analog audio connection. The USB, The Bridge II and Internet Radio sources are available to the multizone system. INSTALLATION INSTALLATION Step tWeLVe – plug in ac power cords Before plugging the AVR into an unswitched electrical outlet, make sure the Main Power Switch behind the front-panel door is off, to prevent the possibility of damaging the AVR in case of a transient power surge. When pressed in, the switch is on. When pressed again to unlatch it, the switch pops out. You may plug one device that draws no more than 50 watts into the AC Switched Accessory Outlet on the rear panel. Turn on the device’s mechanical or master power switch, and that device will power on any time the AVR 760/ Step fourteen – program Sources Into the remote The AVR 760/AVR 660 remote may be programmed to control many brands and models of DVD players, cable boxes, satellite receivers, the Harman Kardon DMC 1000 digital media center and TVs. It is also preprogrammed to operate your iPod when docked in The Bridge II. To access the functions for a particular device, switch the remote’s device mode. Press the AVR Settings Button to access the codes that control the receiver, or the Source Selector Buttons to access the codes for the devices 23 ENGLISH AVR 660 is turned on (some devices may require additional steps to power on from their standby mode). If the device has a clock or must always be on (such as a cable set-top box programmed to make recordings), do not plug it into this outlet. The AVR 760/AVR 660 is equipped with a detachable power cord, allowing you to fully wire your system before installing the AVR. Plug the male end of the cord into an unswitched AC outlet, and the female end into the AVR 760/ AVR 660. The Advanced Manual available for download from the harman/kardon web site contains a Table A5 designed for you to enter the information from Table 2 for future reference. Step tHIrteen – Insert Batteries in remote The AVR 760/AVR 660 remote control uses four AAA batteries (included). To remove the battery cover located on the back of the remote, squeeze the tab and lift the cover. Insert the batteries as shown in Figure 18, observing the correct polarity. Figure 18 – Remote Battery Compartment Point the remote’s lens toward the front panel of the AVR 760/AVR 660. Make sure no objects, such as furniture, are blocking the remote’s path to the receiver. Bright lights, fluorescent lights and plasma video displays may interfere with the remote’s functioning. The remote has a range of about 7 meter, depending on the lighting conditions. It may be used at an angle of up to 30 degrees to either side of the AVR. Leave the Zone Selector Switch at the bottom in the Zone 1 position for normal use. If the remote seems to operate intermittently, or if pressing a button on the remote does not cause the AVR Settings Button or one of the Source Selectors to light, check or replace the batteries. programmed into the remote. To program the codes for a source device into the remote: Turn on the source device. 1. Access the remote’s menu system by pressing and holding the AVR 2. Settings Button for 3 seconds, until the “Main Menu” and “Program Device” messages appear in the LCD Display. Press the OK Button to select the Program Device function. 3. Use the 4. KL Buttons to select the Source Selector (or device) to program, and press the OK Button when the desired device appears on the lower line of the LCD Display. For two of the Source Selectors and for sources A, B, C and D, the next step 5. requires you to specify the device type. For the other Source Selectors, proceed to step 6. Cable/SAT •: Use the KL Buttons to select either a cable television or satellite television set-top box, and press the OK Button. AUX •: Use the KL Buttons to select a CD player, HDTV se...
