15 INSTALLATION AND CONNECTIONS
Installation and Connections
VIDEO CONNECTION NOTE: Composite and
S-Video signals may only be viewed in their
native formats. S-Video inputs may only be
viewed when the AVR 110 is connected to a TV
set or video display with S-Video capability.
System and Power Connections
Remote Control Extension
If the receiver is placed behind a solid or
smoked glass cabinet door, the obstruction may
prevent the remote sensor from receiving com-
mands. In this event, an optional remote sensor
may be used. Connect the output of the remote
sensor to the
Remote IR Input jack a.
If other components are also prevented from
receiving remote commands, only one sensor is
needed. Simply use this unit’s sensor or a
remote eye by running a connection from the
Remote IR Output jack · to the Remote
IR Input jack on Harman Kardon or other com-
patible equipment.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Any cables run inside walls
should be CL3/FT4 rated, or carry any other certi-
fication that is required by the NEC or state and
local building and electrical codes.To avoid inter-
ference, audio and speaker cables should not be
parallel to, or run in the same conduits or path
with, AC cables. If you have any questions about
multiroom wiring, consult your dealer, custom
installer or low-voltage electrical contractor.
AC Power Connections
This unit is equipped with two accessory AC
outlets. They may be used to power accessory
devices, but they should not be used with high-
current draw equipment such as power ampli-
fiers. The total power draw to each outlet may
not exceed 100 watts.
The
Switched AC Accessory outlet fl will
receive power only when the unit is on. This is
recommended for devices that have no power
switch or a mechanical power switch that may
be left in the “ON” position.
NOTE: Many audio and video products go into
a Standby mode when they are used with
switched outlets, and cannot be fully turned on
using the outlet alone without a remote control
command.
The
Unswitched AC Accessory outlet ‡ will
receive power as long as the unit is plugged
into a powered AC outlet.
Finally, when all connections are complete, plug
the power cord into a nonswitched 110-volt AC
wall outlet.You’re almost ready to enjoy the
AVR 110!
