The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol, within an equilateral triangle, is intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated “dangerous voltage” within the product’s enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock to persons.
The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of important operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the appliance.
Important Safeguards
1. Read Instructions – All the safety and operating instructions should be read before the appliance is operated.
2. Retain Instructions – The safety and operating instructions should be retained for future reference.
3. Heed Warnings – All warnings on the appliance and in the operating instructions should be adhered to.
4. Follow Instructions – All operating and use instructions should be followed.
5. Cleaning – Unplug the appliance from the wall outlet before cleaning. The appliance should be cleaned only as recommended by the manufacturer.
6. Attachments – Do not use attachments not recommended by the appliance manufacturer as they may cause hazards.
7. Water and Moisture – Do not use the appliance near water –for example, near a bath tub, wash bowl, kitchen sink, or laundry tub; in a wet basement; or near a swimming pool; and the like.
8. Accessories – Do not place the appliance on an unstable cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table. The appliance may fall, causing serious injury to a child or adult, and serious damage to the appliance. Use only with a cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table recommended by the manufacturer, or sold with the appliance. Any mounting of the appliance
should follow the manufacturer’s instructions, and should use a mounting accessory recom-
mended by the manufacturer.
9. An appliance and cart combination should be moved with care. Quick stops, excessive force, and
uneven surfaces may cause the appliance and cart combination S3125A
to overturn.
10.Ventilation – Slots and openings
in the cabinet are provided for ventilation and to ensure reliable operation of the appliance and to protect it from overheating, and these openings must not be blocked or covered. The openings should never be blocked by placing the appliance on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar surface. The appliance should not be placed in a built-in installation such as a bookcase or rack unless proper ventilation is provided. There should be free space of at least 20 cm (8 in.) and an opening behind the appliance.
11.Power Sources – The appliance should be operated only from the type of power source indicated on the marking label. If you are not sure of the type of power supply to your home, consult your appliance dealer or local power company.
12.Grounding or Polarization – The appliance may be equipped with a polarized alternating current line plug (a plug having one blade wider than the other). This plug will fit into the power outlet only one way. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug should still fail to fit, contact your electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug.
2
13.Power-Cord Protection – Power-supply cords should be routed so that they are not likely to be walked on or pinched by items placed upon or against them, paying particular attention to cords at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the appliance.
14.Outdoor Antenna Grounding – If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to the appliance, be sure the antenna or cable system is grounded so as to provide some protection against voltage surges and built-up static charges. Article 810 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, provides information with regard to proper grounding of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an an- tenna-discharge unit, size of grounding conductors, location of antenna-discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode. See Figure 1.
15.Lightning – For added protection for the appliance during a lightning storm, or when it is left unattended and unused for long periods of time, unplug it from the wall outlet and disconnect the antenna or cable system. This will prevent damage to the appliance due to lightning and power-line surges.
16.Power Lines – An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of overhead power lines or other electric light or power circuits, or where it can fall into such power lines or circuits. When installing an outside antenna system, extreme care should be taken to keep from touching such power lines or circuits as contact with them might be fatal.
17.Overloading – Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords, or integral convenience receptacles as this can result in a risk of fire or electric shock.
18.Object and Liquid Entry – Never push objects of any kind into the appliance through openings as they may touch dangerous voltage points or short-out parts that could result in a fire or electric shock. Never spill liquid of any kind on the appliance.
19.Servicing – Do not attempt to service the appliance yourself as opening or removing covers may expose you to dangerous voltage or other hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.
20.Damage Requiring Service – Unplug the appliance form the wall outlet and refer servicing to qualified service personnel under the following conditions:
A.When the power-supply cord or plug is damaged,
B.If liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen into the appliance,
C.If the appliance has been exposed to rain or water,
D.If the appliance does not operate normally by following the operating instructions. Adjust only those controls that are covered by the operating instructions as an improper adjustment of other controls may result in damage and will often require extensive work by a qualified technician to restore the appliance to its normal operation,
E.If the appliance has been dropped or damaged in any way, and
F.When the appliance exhibits a distinct change in performance – this indicates a need for service.
21.Replacement Parts – When replacement parts are required, be sure the service technician has used replacement parts specified by the manufacturer or have the same characteristics as the original part. Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire, electric shock, or other hazards.
22.Safety Check – Upon completion of any service or repairs to the appliance, ask the service technician to perform safety checks to determine that the appliance is in proper operation condition.
23.Wall or Ceiling Mounting – The appliance should be mounted to a wall or ceiling only as recommended by the manufacturer.
24.Heat – The appliance should be situated away from heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other appliances (including amplifiers) that produce heat.

Setting the AM tuning step frequency (Worldwide models only)
Worldwide models are equipped with a switch that controls the AM band tuning steps. Please set this switch to match the AM band tuning step frequency in your area.
U.S.A. and Canada : 10 kHz
Other areas : 9 kHz
Setting the Voltage selector (Worldwide models only)
Worldwide models are equipped with a voltage selector to conform with local power supplies. Be sure to set this switch to match the voltage of the power supply in your area before plugging in the unit. Determine the proper voltage for your area: 220-230 V or 120 V.
If the preset voltage is not correct for your area, insert a screwdriver into the groove in the switch. Slide the switch all the way to the upper (120 V) or to the lower (220-230 V), whichever is appropriate.
Installing the remote controller batteries
1.Remove the battery compartment cover by pressing and sliding the cover.
2.Insert two AA (R6 or UM-3) batteries into the battery compartment. Carefully follow the polarity diagram (positive (+) and negative (–) symbols) inside the battery compartment.
3.After batteries are installed and seated correctly, replace the compartment cover.
Notes:
•Do not mix new batteries with old batteries or different kinds of batteries.
•To avoid corrosion, remove the batteries if the remote controller is not to be used for a long time.
•Remove dead batteries immediately to avoid damage from corrosion. If the remote controller does not operate smoothly, replace both the batteries at the same time.
•The life of the batteries supplied is about six months but this will vary depending on usage.
Using the remote controller
Point the remote controller toward the remote control sensor. The STANDBY indicator lights up when the unit receives a signal from the remote controller.
Notes:
•Place the unit away from strong light such as direct sunlight or inverted fluorescent light which can prevent proper operation of the remote controller.
•Using another remote controller of the same type in the same room or using the unit near equipment which uses infrared rays may cause operational interference.
•Do not put objects on the remote controller. Its buttons may be pressed by mistake and drain the batteries.
•Make sure the audio rack doors do not have colored glass. Placing the unit behind such doors may prevent proper remote controller operation.
•If there is any obstacle between the remote controller and the
remote control sensor, the remote controller will not operate. |

Front panel
POWER switch
Turns on and off the main power supply for the TX-DS787.
•Before turning on the power, make sure all cables are properly connected.
•Turning on the TX-DS787 may cause a momentary power surge that might interfere with other electrical equipment on the same circuit. If this is a problem, plug the TX-DS787 into a different electrical circuit.
STANDBY indicator
Lights when the TX-DS787 is in the standby state and flashes when a signal is received from the remote controller.
STANDBY/ON button
Pressing this button while the main power is turned on the STANDBY indicator lights up and the front display turns off. Pressing it again returns it to the standby state. This state turns off the display, disables control functions.
ZONE 2 indicator
Lights when a signal is output to the remote zone (Zone 2). When the ZONE 2 indicator is off, then either output to the remote zone is turned off or Rec Out is selected.
REC OUT/ZONE 2 buttons
These buttons allow you to use the TX-DS787 to output to a remote zone (Zone 2) or to another component for recording purposes (Rec Out). Press the REC OUT button to output the audio and video signals to a recording component for recording purposes. Press the ZONE 2 button to enjoy the output from the TX-DS787 in a different room, which is referred to as a remote zone (Zone 2).
When either button is pressed, the currently selected input source for recording or outputting to the remote zone is displayed in the front panel display. If “SOURCE” is displayed, then the same input source as that selected for the main zone will be output.
To select an input source, press the desired button (REC OUT or ZONE 2) and then press one of the input source button within 3 seconds. That source will be output for recording or viewing in the remote zone. To turn off either the REC OUT or ZONE 2 output, when “SOURCE” is displayed, press the button again. “OFF” appears in the front display.
Notes:
•The Rec Out and Zone 2 buttons use the same circuit and therefore cannot be used at the same time. When Rec Out is selected, nothing is output to Zone 2, and vice versa.
•When not using Rec Out or Zone 2, turn off the signal. If turned on and the connected component is not turned on, the electric signal will still be sent through the circuitry and the excess load may cause deterioration of the audio signal.
MASTER VOLUME dial
The MASTER VOLUME dial is used to control the volume for the main zone. The volume for the remote zone (Zone 2) is independent.
PHONES jack
This is a standard stereo jack for connecting stereo headphones. The audio for the front right and left speakers are sent to the headphone speakers. When the headphones are plugged in, the listening mode automatically changes to stereo and output to the speakers is stopped.
AUDIO SELECTOR button
This button is used to select the type of audio input signal. Each time pressed, the setting cycles from “AUTO” → “Multichannel” → “Analog” and back.
AUTO (automatic detection): With this setting, the TX-DS787 automatically detects whether the input signal is digital or analog. When a digital signal is not input, then the analog signal is played.
Multichannel: Select this setting to play back the input from the component connected to the MULTI CHANNEL INPUT port. This setting is effective when the Multichannel setting in the Audio Setup sub-menu is set to “Yes” (see page 35).
Analog: Select this setting to play back the input from a source component connected to an AUDIO IN jack. With this setting, even if a digital signal is input from the same component, only the analog signal will be output.
Input Source Buttons (DVD, VIDEO 1–4, TAPE, FM, AM, PHONO, and CD)
These buttons are used to select the input source for the main zone. To select the input source for the remote zone (Zone 2) or recording out (Rec Out), first press the Zone 2 or Rec Out button, and then the desired input source button.
VIDEO 4/VIDEO CAM INPUT
These inputs are for connecting video cameras and other such equipment.
RT/PTY/TP (European models only) button
This button is only available on European models. Use this button to help tune into the Radio Data System (RDS) for FM broadcasting. RDS was developed within the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) and is available in most European countries. Each time the button is pressed, the display changes from RT (radio text) to PTY (program type) to TP (traffic program) and then back to RT again.
DIMMER (other than European models) button

DIGITAL INPUT/OUTPUT (coaxial and optical)
These are the digital audio inputs and outputs. There are 2 digital inputs with coaxial jacks and 2 with optical jacks. The inputs accept digital audio signals from a compact disc, LD, DVD, or other digital source component. For digital output, there is 1 optical output. The digital outputs can be connected to MD recorders, CD recorders, DAT decks, or other similar components.
•When using the digital inputs and outputs, make sure to also connect the analog connections whenever possible.
•When using one of the optical input or output jacks, remove the protective cap and keep it safely. When the jack is not used, replace the protective cap.
•When using an optical input or output jack, always use an optical fiber cable.

Optical digital input terminal
An optical digital input terminal is equipped with a protection cap. When connecting, remove this cap. When not using, put the cap back on the terminal.
GND
Use this GND terminal for connecting the ground (or earth) wire if a turntable is connected. Refer to “Connecting a turntable” on page 18.
z (RI)
By connecting the z connector as shown in the diagram below, you can use the RC-390M remote controller to operate Onkyo cassette tape decks and compact disc players that also have Onkyo’s z connectors. Simply connect a remote control cable from this connector to the z connector of the cassette tape deck or compact disc player. An z remote control cable with a 3.5- mm (1/8-inch) miniature two-conductor plug comes with every cassette tape deck and compact disc player that has an z connector.
•For remote control operation, the audio connection cables must also be connected.
•The RC-390M remote controller does not support turntables.
•If the connected component has two z connectors, you can use either one to connect to the TX-DS787. The other one can be used to daisy chain with another component.
•For Onkyo DVD or MD players, you can control them by simply pointing the RC-390M controller directly at the component.
PRE OUT
These jacks are for connecting auxiliary power amplifier.
ANTENNA
These jacks are for connecting the FM indoor antenna and AM loop antenna that are supplied with the TX-DS787.
IR IN MAIN/IR IN ZONE 2
If the TX-DS787 is located inside a rack or cabinet that will not allow infrared beams to reach the IR sensor, you will need to connect a remote sensor to IR IN MAIN input to be able to use the remote controller. Then install the remote sensor in an unblocked location where you can easily point the remote controller.
To use the remote controller in the remote zone (Zone 2), which may be far separated from the TX-DS787, connect a multiroom system kit to the IR IN MAIN/IR IN ZONE 2 input.
To be able to use the remote controller through either the IR IN MAIN or IR IN ZONE 2 inputs, you must connect one of the following (sold separately):
•Onkyo’s Multi-Room System kits (IR Remote Controller Extension System), or
•Multiroom A/V distribution and control systems from Niles® and Xantech® to name a few
COMPONENT VIDEO INPUT/OUTPUT
If your DVD player or other device has component video connectors, be sure to connect them to these component video connectors on the TX-DS787. The TX-DS787 has two component video input connectors to obtain the color information (Y, PB, PR) directly from the recorded DVD signal or other video component and one component video output connector to output it directly into the matrix decoder of the display device. By sending the pure DVD component video signal directly, the DVD signal forgoes the extra processing that normally would degrade the image. The result is vastly increased image quality, with incredibly lifelike colors and crisp detail.

Connecting speakers
Before connecting the speakers, place them correctly by consulting the instruction manuals that came with them.
For surround playback, the configuration and placement of your speakers are very important.
For THX surround EX playback, we recommend that you use a THX speaker system that is certified by Lucasfilm Ltd.
Ideal speaker configuration
•Front right and left speakers
•Center speaker
Produces a rich sound image by serving as a sound source for the front right and left speakers and enhancing the sonic movement.
•Surround right and left speakers
Adds three-dimensional sonic movement and produces environmental sound associated with the background and effect sound for each scene.
•Surround back speaker
Required for enjoying THX Surround EX audio. For audio using surround back right and surround back left speakers, a separately-sold 2-channel power amplifier is required.
Lucasfilm/THX recommends the use of two Surround Back speakers to enjoy the full potential of THX Surround EX. An external stereo power amplifier will need to used to power the two speakers from the Pre-Amp out terminals.
However, if you are unable to position two speakers in your listening environment, a single surround speaker can be used and the TX-DS787 has an internal amplifier to power this speaker for your convenience.
•Subwoofer
Produces powerful and heavy bass.
Minimum speaker configuration for surround sound playback
•Front right and left speakers
•Surround right and left speakers
The sound recorded for the center speaker and the subwoofer will be properly distributed to the front right and left speakers for optimized surround playback.
Speaker placement
Ideal speaker placement varies depending on the size of your room and the wall coverings. Here, only typical example of speaker placement and recommendations are shown.
Surround back speaker/Surround back left and right speakers
•Surround back speaker is required for enjoying THX Surround EX audio.
•Place these speakers behind the listener so that the angle between each speaker and the listener is approximately 30 degrees.
•Place these speakers so that their height is 1 meter higher than that of the listener’s ears.

•The TX-DS787 is designed to produce optimum sound quality when speakers with impedances within the specified ranges are connected. Check the following information and choose speakers with appropriate impedances for the connections.
CAUTION:
SPEAKER IMPEDANCE
6 Ω min. per each speaker terminal.
•When you are using only one speaker or when you wish to listen to monaural (mono) sound, a single speaker should never be connected in parallel to both the right and leftchannel terminals simultaneously.
•To prevent damage to circuitry, never shortcircuit the positive (+) and negative (–) speaker wire.

•Be sure to connect the positive and negative cables for the speakers properly. If they are mixed up, the left and right signals will be reversed and the audio will sound unnatural.
•Connect speakers with an impedance between 6 and 16 Ω. Connecting speakers with an impedance less that 6 Ω may damage the TX-DS787.
•Do not connect more than one speaker cable to one speaker terminal. Doing so may damage the TX-DS787.
Connecting the speaker cable
1.Strip away 15 mm (5/8 inch) of wire insulation.
2.Twist wire ends very tight.
3.Unscrew
4.Insert wire
5.Screw

Connecting the included antennas
Connecting the FM indoor antenna:
The FM indoor antenna is for indoor use only. During use, extend the antenna and move it in various directions until the clearest signal is received. Fix it with push pins or similar implements in the position that will cause the least amount of distortion.
If the reception is not very clear with the attached FM indoor antenna, the use of an outdoor antenna is recommended.
Connecting the AM loop antenna:
The AM loop antenna is for indoor use only. Set it in the direction and position where you receive the clearest sound. Put it as far away as possible from the TX-DS787, televisions, speaker cables, and power cords.
When reception is not satisfactory with the attached AM loop antenna alone, connection of an outdoor antenna is recommended.

Connecting antennas
Connecting an FM outdoor antenna
Please make sure that you follow the considerations:
•Keep the antenna away from noise sources (neon signs, busy roads, etc.).
•It is dangerous to put the antenna close to power lines. Keep it well away from power lines, transformers, etc.
•To avoid the risk of lightning and electrical shock, grounding is necessary. Follow item 14 of the “Important Safeguards” on page 2 when you install the outdoor antenna.
Directional linkage
Do not use the same antenna for both FM and TV (or VCR) reception since the FM and TV (or VCR) signals can interfere with each other. If you must use a common FM/TV (or VCR) antenna, use a directional linkage type splitter.
