Net/USB (DTR-9.9 only) About Net/USB The AV receiver is network-ready, which means you can hook it up to your home network with a standard Ethernet cable and enjoy the music files stored on your computer or media server. If your network is connected to the Internet, you can also enjoy Internet radio. Net/USB can also be used to play music files stored on USB mass storage devices (e.g., USB flash drives and MP3 players), which can be plugged into the AV receiver’s front panel USB port.
Net/USB (DTR-9.9 only)—Continued USB Mass Storage Device Requirements Network Requirements • The AV receiver supports USB devices that support the USB mass storage device class. • Playback may not be possible with some USB devices even if they conform to the USB mass storage device class. • USB devices formatted with the FAT16 or FAT32 file system are supported. • If the storage device has been partitioned, only music files in the first partition can be played.
Net/USB (DTR-9.9 only)—Continued Connecting the AV Receiver To connect the AV receiver to your home network, plug one end of a shielded CAT5 Ethernet cable into the AV receiver’s ETHERNET port, and plug the other end into a LAN port on your router or switch.

When triggered, the output from a 12V TRIGGER OUT goes high (+12 volts, 100 milliamperes max).
Zone 2 and Zone 3—Continued Using the Remote Controller in Zone 2/3 and Multiroom Control Kits To control the AV receiver with the remote controller while you’re in Zone 2 or Zone 3, you’ll need a commercially available multiroom remote control kit for each zone. • Multiroom kits are made by Niles and Xantech. These kits can also be used when there isn’t a clear line of sight to the AV receiver’s remote sensor, such as when it’s installed inside a cabinet.
Controlling Other Components You can control your other components, including those made by other manufacturers, with the remote controller. This section explains how to: • Enter the remote control code for a component that you want to control: DVD, TV, VCR, etc. • Learn commands directly from another component’s remote controller (see page 151). • Program the Macro buttons to perform a sequence of up to eight remote control actions (see page 152).
Controlling Other Components—Continued Remote Control Codes for Integra/Onkyo Components Connected via Integra/Onkyo components that are connected via are controlled by pointing the remote controller at the AV receiver, not the component. This allows you to control components that are out of view, in a rack, for example.
Controlling Other Components—Continued To control another component, point the remote controller at it and use the buttons explained below. (You must select the appropriate remote controller mode with the Remote Mode buttons first.) With some components, certain buttons may not work as expected, and some may not work at all.
Controlling Other Components—Continued Learning Commands If the command is learned successfully, the Remote indicator flashes twice.
Controlling Other Components—Continued Using Macros You can program the remote controller’s Macro buttons to perform a sequence of remote control actions. Example: To play a CD you typically need to perform the following actions: 1. Press the [Receiver] Remote Mode button to select the Receiver remote controller mode. 2. Press the [On] button to turn on the AV receiver. 3. Press the [CD] Input Selector button to select the CD input source. 4.
Troubleshooting If you have any trouble using the AV receiver, look for a solution in this section. If you can’t resolve the issue yourself, contact the dealer from whom you purchased this unit. If you can’t resolve the issue yourself, try resetting the AV receiver before contacting the dealer from whom you purchased this unit. To reset the AV receiver to its factory defaults, turn it on and, while holding down the [VCR/DVR] button, press the [On/Standby] button.
Troubleshooting—Continued The surround back speakers produce no sound • The surround back speakers are not used with all listening modes.
