INSTALLATION AND CONNECTIONS 9
Installation and Connections
To prevent possible damage to your speakers
and other components in your audio system, it is
important that ALL components, including the
FL 8380 and your receiver or preamp and ampli-
fiers, are turned off and unplugged from their
AC power source when installing any new com-
ponent.
Connecting the FL 8380 to your audio system is
simple. Using standard RCA-to-RCA interconnect
cords, connect the left and right Audio Output
jacks
4
on the rear panel to the CD input jacks
on your receiver, surround processor or preampli-
fier.
If your system includes an optional external
digital-to-analog converter, or if you are using a
receiver or other processor that has the capabili-
ty to decode PCM digital input signals, connect
the Coaxial Digital Output jack
1
to the
Coaxial Digital input on the decoder. Make cer-
tain to use a coaxial-style interconnect cable, as
standard audio cables will not perform as well.
Install two AA batteries by turning the remote
over so that you are holding the bottom side up.
Press lightly on the embossed arrow on the
cover and gently slide the cover towards you in
the direction of the arrow. Insert the batteries
inside the compartment, being careful to follow
the + and polarity indications at the bottom of
the compartment. Replace the cover by placing it
on the remote and sliding it back towards the
top of the remote.
NOTE: When replacing batteries, always replace
both at the same time. When the unit will not be
used for an extended period of time, it is also a
good idea to remove the batteries so that the
potential for corrosion or damage is avoided.
If the FL 8380 is installed behind a cabinet or
other obstruction that may block the path
between the front-panel Remote Sensor
D
and the location of the remote, an optional
external IR sensor may be used. Connect the
sensor to the Remote IR-In Jack
3
on the
rear panel. This jack may also be connected to
the IR-Output jack of another compatible
Harman Kardon component or a compatible IR-
system- remote product.
You may also use the IR Sensor in the FL 8380
to send commands to other compatible remote
controlled products. Connect the Remote IR-
Out jack
2
to the input of the other product
or system.
Connect the power to a nonswitched AC wall
outlet or to the accessory outlet on the rear of
another audio device in your system and you are
ready to go!
NOTE: When using the accessory outlet on
another product to power the FL 8380 make cer-
tain that it has the compatibility to power a
device that draws at least 20 watts of current in
addition to being able to handle the require-
ments of the other devices that may be plugged
into the accessory outlets. If you use a
“switched” outlet, it is important to remember
that the host product must be turned on in order
for the FL 8380 to operate.
