for example) that are not compatible with HDCP. HDCP is a
specification to protect audiovisual content across the DVI/
HDMI interface.

• This player is designed for connection with HDMI-compatible
devices. When connected to a DVI device, it may not operate
properly depending on the DVI device.
About KURO LINK function
When the player is connected to a Pioneer Flat Panel TV or AV
system (AV receiver or amplifier, etc.) supporting the KURO LINK
function, it can be operated from the Flat Panel TV.
The input switches automatically on the Flat Panel TV and AV
system (AV receiver or amplifier, etc.) when playback is started on
the player or the Home Menu or the Home Media Gallery is
displayed. When the input is switched, the playback picture, the
Home Menu or the Home Media Gallery appears on the Flat Panel
TV (Auto-select function). If the Flat Panel TV’s power is being turned
off at this time, it may turn on automatically (Simultaneous power
function). When the language information from a connected Flat
Panel TV is received, you can have the player’s on-screen display
language change automatically to that of the Flat Panel TV (Unified
language function). This function is available only when playback is
stopped and the menu screen is not displayed.
Also refer to the operating instructions of the Flat Panel TV and AV
system (AV receiver or amplifier, etc.).
Caution
• To use the KURO LINK function, connect the Flat Panel TV and
AV system (AV receiver or amplifier, etc.) to the HDMI OUT
(MAIN) terminal. The KURO LINK function will not work if
connected to the HDMI OUT (SUB) terminal.
To use the KURO LINK function
• The KURO LINK function operates when KURO LINK is set to On
for all devices connected to the HDMI OUT (MAIN) terminal.
Once connections and the settings of all the devices are
finished, be sure to check that the player’s picture is output to
the Flat Panel TV. (Also check after changing the connected
devices and reconnecting HDMI cables.) The KURO LINK
function may not operate properly if the player’s picture is not
properly output to the Flat Panel TV.
• Use High Speed HDMI™ cables when using the KURO LINK
function. The KURO LINK function may not operate properly if
other HDMI cables are used.
•For some models, the KURO LINK function may be referred to as
“HDMI Control”.
About PQLS function
The PQLS (Precision Quartz Lock System) is a transfer control
technology using the KURO LINK function. The player’s output
signals are controlled from the AV receiver or amplifier to achieve
high quality sound playback using the quartz oscillator of AV
receiver or amplifier. This eliminates the influence of the jitter
generated upon transfer which can adversely affect the sound
quality.
• The PQLS function is only activated when a Pioneer AV receiver
or amplifier compatible with the PQLS function is connected
directly to the player’s HDMI OUT (MAIN) terminal using an
HDMI cable.
• The PQLS function is only activated when playing an audio CD
(CD-DA).
• The PQLS function is activated when the player is set as follows
(page 45):
KURO LINK: On
PQLS: Auto
• Also refer to the operating instructions of AV receiver or
amplifier.
Caution
• If the output video resolution is switched when playing an audio
CD (CD-DA), the PQLS function does not work. This function will
work again after playback stops and restarts.
Connecting a TV
Connect a TV to the HDMI OUT (MAIN) terminal. Another TV or a
projector can be connected to HDMI OUT (SUB). See Connecting an
AV receiver or amplifier on page 17 to connect an AV receiver or
amplifier using an HDMI cable.
Caution
• Hold the plug when connecting and disconnecting the cable.
• Placing a load on the plug could result in faulty contact and no
video signals being output.
• The KURO LINK function will not work if connected to the HDMI
OUT (SUB) terminal. To use the KURO LINK function, connect
the TV to the HDMI OUT (MAIN) terminal.
