Press these buttons when the tuner

is the input source to select the station being listened to

from the frequencies previously entered into the preset

memories.

8

Press this button to temporarily

silence the audio output. Press the button again, or

change the volume level to return to normal operation.

Note that when the Mute function is activated, the feed

to any recorders connected to the 

£

will remain uninterrupted. When Mute is engaged a

reminder message will appear in the on-screen display

(see figure OSD-15 on page 38) and the word Mute

will replace the volume level in the 

) (see figure FPD-9 on page 38).

Turn this knob to the right or 

left to raise or lower the volume. This is an electronic

volume control, so unlike the conventional volume

controls you may be used to, it does not have a start or

end point to its rotation. Volume indications are provided

in both the front panel 

)

and the on-screen control system (see figure OSD-13 

on page 38) to provide information about the relative

volume setting.

)

This two-line display is

your window into the status and operation of the 2.0. 

In normal operation it displays the current input source

and surround mode at the left side of the display, and the

volume level on the right side. When the tuner is in use

the top line of the display will show the preset number

and frequency of the station being listened to. Additional

messages will be displayed depending on which input or

mode is in use, including RDS data from the FM tuner,

and abbreviated versions of the on-screen menus used

during installation, setup and configuration.

!

This area contains the

sensor that receives commands from the Signature 2.0’s

infrared remote control. Make certain that it is not

blocked by cabinets, smoked glass or doors or other

objects that may interfere with the line of sight from 

the remote.

10

¡

Use these inputs for

connections to optional, external audio adapters. To

select a device connected to these jacks, the audio input

for a source must be changed to “6-CH Direct” using the

Source Menu

(see figure OSD-6 on page 29).

™

Connect the output of

analog audio devices to these inputs. Note the left

channel input is on top, and the right channel input is 

on the bottom. Once the inputs have been connected

they may be assigned to any of the 2.0’s seven source

positions using the Source Menu (see figure 

OSD-6 on page 29).

£

Each of these two pairs of 

jacks carries the identical audio signal, which is the 

audio output selected through the Record Outputs

menu (see figures OSD-35 and OSD-36 on pages 50 and

51). Connect these jacks to the “REC IN” input of a VCR,

cassette recorder, DAT, reel-to-reel recorder, or another

audio recording device.

¢

Connect these

jacks to the input of the audio power amplifier. When

making connections to an amplifier make certain that

channels are connected to a matching input on the amp.

(e.g., front left to front left, center to center, etc.).

IMPORTANT NOTE: Never make or remove any connections to the Signature 2.0 with the Master Power Switch in the

“ON” position. It is also a good practice to make certain that the power amplifiers connected to the 2.0 are also turned 

off when making or removing any connections. This eliminates the risk of possible damage to your speakers or other

system components.

When making connections to the Signature 2.0 make certain that the plugs are firmly seated into the jacks. This prevents

intermittent connections which may interfere with performance.

Connect this jack to the 

line level mono input of an optional powered sub-

woofer, or the audio input of an external amplifier used

to drive a passive subwoofer. If you are using a passive

subwoofer that has both left and right inputs and no

indication of which to use for mono subwoofer inputs, 

it is advisable that a “Y” cable be used so that the signal

is fed to both inputs.

§

This jack is provided to

permit operation of the Signature 2.0 by computers or

home automation systems. The use of this control port

requires additional optional software and it is strongly

recommended that a Harman Kardon dealer be consulted

before any connections are made.

¶

If the 2.0’s front panel IR sensor is blocked

due to cabinet doors or other obstructions, an external IR

sensor may be used. Connect the output of the sensor to

this jack.

•

This jack may be connected to other

compatible Harman Kardon products so that they 

will receive infrared commands captured by the 2.0’s

remote sensor.

ª

If a compatible Signature Series or

Harman Kardon audio power amplifier will be used with

the 2.0, connect the amplifier connection cable supplied

with the 2.0 between this jack and the “Trigger Input” of

the amplifier. When connected by a properly trained

dealer or installer, this output may also be used to control

other devices designed to accept a 6- to 12-volt “Power

On” trigger signal, such as projection television screens or

automatic blinds. The MAXIMUM current draw for all

circuits connected to this output is 150 milliamperes.

‚

Connect this plug to an

unswitched, wall-mounted AC outlet.

⁄

Connect this jack to the

S-Video “REC-IN” input of a VCR.

¤

Connect this jack to the 

S-Video input of the TV, video monitor, projector or

display that will be used to view the On-Screen Control

Menus of the 2.0 along with any selected S-Video input.

‹

Connect the output of S-Video

sources to these input jacks. Once the inputs have been

connected they may be assigned to any of the 2.0’s seven

source positions using the Source Menu (see figure

OSD-5 on page 27).

›

Connect this

jack to the composite video “REC-IN” input of a VCR.

fi

Connect this

jack to the composite video input of a TV set, video

monitor, projection television or other video display

device that will be used to view the On-Screen Control

Menus of the 2.0 along with the selected video input.

fl

Connect the output of

composite video sources to these input jacks. Once the

inputs have been connected they may be assigned to any

of the 2.0’s source positions using the Source Menu

(see figure OSD-5 on page 27).

‡

Connect the

Optical (TosLink) digital audio output of audio sources 

to these jacks. Once the inputs have been connected 

they may be assigned to any of the 2.0’s source 

positions using the Source Menu (see figure 

OSD-5 on page 27).

°

Connect the coax

digital audio output of audio sources to these jacks. Once

the inputs have been connected they may be assigned to

any of the 2.0’s source positions using the Source

Menu

(see figure OSD-5 on page 27).

·

Connect the AM loop antenna

supplied with the 2.0 to these terminals. An external AM

antenna may also be connected here.

a

Connect an FM antenna 

to these terminals. Note that the supplied 300-ohm to

75-ohm adapter is required for connections from twin-

lead dipole antennas.
