9.An appliance and cart combination should be moved with care. Quick stops, excessive force, and

uneven surfaces may cause the S3125A appliance and cart combination 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.

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 antennadischarge unit, size of grounding conductors, location of an- tenna-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.

2

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.

Component video output

Connecting your video components

Below is an example of how you can connect your video components to the DTR-7.3. Refer to the diagram above for the following connection examples.

COMPONENT VIDEO INPUT/OUTPUT

For DVD players or other devices that have component video connectors, the DTR-7.3 has two banks of component video input connectors (Y, PB, PR) for direct component video input. The DTR- 7.3 also has one bank of component video output connectors for direct component video output to the matrix decoder of a television, projector, or other display device. By sending the pure component video signal directly, the 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.

VIDEO IN/OUT

These are the video inputs and outputs. On the rear panel, there are five video inputs and two video outputs and each one includes both composite video and S video configurations.

Connect VCRs, VTRs, LD players, DVD players, and other video components to the video inputs. Connect VCRs, VTRs, and other recording components to the video outputs to make video recordings.

•When connecting a VCR or other video component, make sure you connect its audio and video leads to the same bank (e.g., both to VIDEO 3).

•The VIDEO 5 inputs are located on the front panel.

The flow of the video signals is as follows:

Signals that comes in from VIDEO and S-VIDEO INPUT are output to VIDEO and S VIDEO, signals that comes in from COMPONENT VIDEO INPUT are only output to COMPONENT VIDEO OUTPUT. When connecting a video player to the COMPONENT VIDEO INPUT jacks, be sure to connect your television to the COMPONENT VIDEO OUTPUT jacks.

4. Connecting a DVD player (DVD)

Using an RCA video cable, connect the video output jack (composite) of the DVD or LD player to the DVD VIDEO IN jack of the DTR-7.3. Or if the DVD or LD player has an S video output jack, connect it to the DVD S VIDEO IN jack with an S video cable. Or if the device has component video outputs, connect them to one of the banks of COMPONENT VIDEO INPUT jacks on the DTR-7.3.

With the initial settings of the DTR-7.3, the DVD input source is set for the COMPONENT VIDEO INPUT 1 jacks.

If you connect the DVD or LD player to the COMPONENT VIDEO INPUT 2 jacks, this must be changed at Setup Menu → Input Setup → Video Setup → Component Video (see page 48).

Using an RCA audio connection cable, connect the audio output jacks of the DVD or LD player to the DVD AUDIO IN jacks of the DTR-7.3. Make sure that you properly connect the left channel to the L jack and the right channel to the R jack.

Connecting speakers

Before connecting the speakers, it is very important to place them properly for the optimum sound space for your listening pleasure. Be sure to refer to the instruction manuals that came with the speakers during placement and connection. Furthermore, be aware that for surround playback, the configuration and placement of your speakers are both very important.

For THX surround EX playback, we recommend that you use a THX speaker system that is certified by THX 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 right and left speakers

Required for enjoying Dolby Digital EX, THX Surround EX, DTS-ES Matrix 6.1, or DTS-ES Discrete 6.1 audio.

•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.

In order to create the optimum conditions for the best sound quality, be sure to place all the speakers so that the greatest difference between the distances of each speaker to the listening position is less than 20 feet (6 meters).

Important points regarding speaker placement

Front left and right speakers and center speaker

•Place these three speakers all at the same height.

•Place each speaker so that it is aimed at the location of the listener’s ears when at the listening position.

Surround left and right speakers

•Place these speakers so that their height is 3 feet (1 meter) higher than that of the listener’s ears.

Surround back speakers

•Place these speakers so that their height is 3 feet (1 meter) higher than that of the listener’s ears.

•When using surround back left and right speakers, place them behind the listener so that the angles between the lines from each speaker to the listener and a line straight back from the listener are less than 30 degrees.

Subwoofer

When bass sound is reproduced, its volume and quality greatly depend on subwoofer placement. Those characteristics also depends on the shape of your listening room as well as your listening point. Generally speaking, good bass sound is obtained when the subwoofer is placed in the corner of the room or at one-third the length of the room.

corner

1/3 room length

For optimizing the subwoofer placement, we recommend you to:

•play a movie or music source containing good quality base sound,

•take some experimenting while changing subwoofer’s position in the room, and

•try different positioning until you get the most out of the base sound while fixing the listening point.

Connecting speakers

Connecting speakers

After determining the layout of your speaker system, it is now necessary to connect the speakers correctly to your DTR-7.3.

Caution:

Connect only speakers with an impedance between 4 and 16 Ω to the DTR-7.3. If the impedance of even one speaker is between 4 and 6 Ω, be sure to set the speaker impedance setting accordingly (see page 41).

Notes:

•Even if you are using only one speaker or listening to monaural (mono) sound, never connect a single speaker in parallel to both the right and left-channel terminals.

Connecting the remote zone (Zone 2) speakers

The DTR-7.3 allows you to watch and listen to two separate input sources at the same time. This allows you to, for example, place speakers and a television in two different rooms so that two or more people can enjoy two different movies at the same time. The room where the DTR-7.3 is actually located is referred to as the main room while the separate room is referred to as the remote zone (Zone 2). In addition, the IR IN/OUT terminal of the DTR-7.3 allows you to control the DTR-7.3 from the remote zone (Zone 2) with the remote controller even though the remote zone is physically separated. The diagram below shows how to make the proper connections for the remote zone.

When using the SURR BACK/ZONE 2 SPEAKERS terminals

If you are using a 5.1-channel speaker system in the main room, you can connect the speakers for the remote zone (Zone 2) to the open SURR BACK/ZONE 2 SPEAKERS terminals.

With this connection, select “Zone 2” for the Hardware Setup → Surr Back/Zone2 → Surr Back/Zone 2 setting in the Setup menu (see page 42).

Operating components not reached by the remote controller signals (IR IN/OUT)

In order to use the remote controller to control the DTR-7.3 from a remote location, you will need to prepare a multi-room kit (sold separately) such as one of those given below:

•Onkyo’s Multi-Room System kits (IR Remote Controller Extension System)

•Multiroom A/V distribution and control system such as those from Niles® and Xantech®

If the remote controller signal does not reach the DTR-7.3 remote sensor

If the DTR-7.3 is located inside a cabinet or other enclosure where the infrared rays from the remote controller cannot enter, then operation with the remote controller will not be possible. In such a case, it will be necessary to install a remote sensor at a location outside of the cabinet for the infrared rays from the controller can reach.

With this connection, select “Main” for the Hardware Setup → IR IN Setup → Position setting in the Setup Menu (see page 42).

Miscellaneous Connections

Connections for remote control ()

The terminal on the DTR-7.3 is for connecting other Integra/ Onkyo components equipped with the same terminal. When a component is connected to the terminal, it can be operated by the remote controller supplied with the DTR-7.3. In addition, when you connect a component to the terminal, you can also perform the system operations given below.

Power on/ready function

When the DTR-7.3 is in the standby state, if an -connected component is turned on, the DTR-7.3 also turns on and the input source selected at the DTR-7.3 automatically switches to that component.

Be aware that this function will not work if the power cord for the -connected component is connected to the AC OUTLET on the

DTR-7.3, or if the DTR-7.3 has already been turned on.

Direct change function

When the play button is pressed at an -connected component, the input source selected at the DTR-7.3 automatically changes to that component.

Power off function

When the DTR-7.3 is placed in the standby state, all -connected components are also automatically put into the standby state.

Also, if you press the ON button on the DTR-7.3 remote controller while the DTR-7.3 is turned on, all -connected components (DVD players, CD players, MD recorders, tuners, etc.) are also turned on.

DTR-7.3

connector

Ex: Integra/Onkyo CD player

connector

Ex: Integra/Onkyo cassette tape deck

To connect components using the terminal, simply connect a remote control cable from this terminal to the terminal of the other component. An remote control cable with a 1/8-inch (3.5- mm) miniature two-conductor plug comes with every cassette tape deck, compact disc player, MD recorder, and DVD player that has an terminal.

•When performing operations with -connected components using the system, do not use the remote zone (Zone 2).

•For remote control operation, the audio connection cables must also be connected.

•If a component has two terminals, you can use either one to connect to the DTR-7.3. The other one can be used to daisy chain with another component.

•With Integra/Onkyo DVD players, you can enter the preprogram code so that you can operate the DVD player directly with the remote controller without connecting the terminals (see page 65).

26

Connecting the power cords from other devices

The DTR-7.3 is equipped with AC mains outlets for connecting the power cords from other devices so that their power is supplied through the DTR-7.3. By doing this, you can leave the connected device turned on and have the STANDBY/ON button on the DTR- 7.3 turn on and off the device together with the DTR-7.3.

The shape, number, and total capacity of the AC outlets may differ depending on the area of purchase.

Caution:

Make sure that the total capacity of the components connected to the DTR-7.3 does not exceed the capacity that is printed on the rear panel (e.g., TOTAL 120W).
