Troubleshooting Before starting the procedure Problems may be solved by simply turning the power on/off or disconnecting/connecting the power cord, which is easier than working on the connection, setting and operating procedure. Try the simple measures on both the unit and the connected device. If the problem is that the video or audio is not output or the HDMI linked operation does not work, disconnecting/connecting the HDMI cable may solve it. When reconnecting, be careful not to wind the HDMI cable since if wound the HDMI cable may not fit well. After reconnecting, turn off and on the unit and the connected device. The AV receiver contains a microPC for signal processing and control functions. In very rare situations, severe interference, noise from an external source, or static electricity may cause it to lockup. In the unlikely event that this happens, unplug the power cord from the wall outlet, wait at least 5 seconds, and then plug it back in. Onkyo is not responsible for damages (such as CD rental fees) due to unsuccessful recordings caused by the unit’s malfunction. Before you record important data, make sure that the material will be recorded correctly.

Troubleshooting Noise can be heard Using cable ties to bundle audio cables with power cords, speaker cables, etc. may degrade the audio performance, so refrain from doing it. An audio cable may be picking up interference. Try repositioning your cables.
Page 151
Troubleshooting The sound changes when I connect my headphones When a listening mode other than Direct, Pure Audio (European, Australian and Asian models), or Mono is selected, connecting a headphone automatically selects Stereo.
Page 152
Troubleshooting About DTS signals When DTS program material ends and the DTS bitstream stops, the unit remains in DTS listening mode and the dts indicator remains on. This is to prevent noise when you use the pause, fast forward, or fast reverse function on your player. If you switch your player from DTS to PCM, you may not hear any sound because the unit does not switch formats immediately. In such case, you should stop your player for about 3 or more seconds and then resume playback. With some CD and LD players, you will not be able to playback DTS material properly even though your player is connected to a digital input on the unit. This is usually because the DTS bitstream has been processed (e.g., output level, sampling rate, or frequency response changed) and the unit does not recognize it as a genuine DTS signal. In such cases, you may hear noise. When playing DTS program material, using the pause, fast forward, or fast reverse function on your player may produce a short audible noise. This is not a malfunction.
Page 153
Troubleshooting The beginning of audio received by an HDMI IN cannot be heard Since it takes longer to identify the format of an HDMI signal than it does for other digital audio signals, audio output may not start immediately.

Reference Information About HDMI HDMI (HighDefinition Multimedia Interface) is a digital interface standard for connecting TVs, projectors, Bluray Disc/DVD players, settop boxes, and other video components. Until now, several separate video and audio cables have been required to connect AV components. With HDMI, a single cable can carry control signals, digital video and digital audio (2channel PCM, multichannel digital audio, and multichannel PCM). The HDMI video stream (i.e., video signal) is compatible with DVI (Digital Visual Interface) (*1), so TVs and displays with a DVI input can be connected by using an HDMItoDVI adapter cable. (This may not work with some TVs and displays, resulting in no picture.) This unit supports HDCP (Highbandwidth Digital Content Protection) (*2), so it can display picture only on HDCPcompatible components. HDMI of the unit supports the following functions. Audio Return Channel, 3D, x.v.Color, Deep Color, LipSync, 4K (Passthrough) Audio Formats Supported by The Unit: 2channel linear PCM (32 192 kHz, 16/20/24 bit) Multichannel linear PCM (up to 7.1 ch, 32 192 kHz, 16/20/24 bit) Bitstream (Dolby Atmos, Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby TrueHD, DTS, DTSHD High Resolution Audio, DTSHD Master Audio) Your Bluray Disc/DVD player must also support HDMI output of the above audio formats. About Copyright Protection: The unit supports Revision 1.4 and Revision 2.2 (HDMI OUT and HDMI IN1 to 3 only) of the HDCP (Highbandwidth Digital Content Protection) (*2), a copyprotection system for digital video signals. Other devices connected to the unit must also support HDCP. DVI (Digital Visual Interface): The digital display interface standard *1 set by the DDWG (*3) in 1999. HDCP (Highbandwidth Digital Content Protection): The video *2 encryption technology developed by Intel for HDMI/DVI. It is designed to protect video content and requires a HDCPcompatible HDMI/DVI receiver to display the encrypted video.
Page 195
industry group's objective is to address the industry's requirements for a digital connectivity specification for highperformance PC and digital displays. Caution: There are some content that can be played only with HDCP Rev. 2.2 compatible devices. To play such content, connect an HDCP Rev.2.2 compatible TV or player to the HDMI OUT jack or HDMI IN1 to 3 jacks of the unit. The HDMI video stream (i.e., video signal) is compatible with DVI (Digital Visual Interface), so TVs and displays with a DVI input can be connected by using an HDMItoDVI adapter cable. (Note that DVI connections only carry video, so you will need to make a separate connection for audio.) However, reliable operation with such an adapter is not guaranteed. In addition, video signals from a PC are not supported. The HDMI audio signal (sampling rate, bit length, etc.) may be restricted by the connected source component. If the picture is poor or there is no sound from a component connected via HDMI, check its setup. Refer to the connected component’s instruction manual for details.

Reference Information Home network (LAN) The connection of several components via cables enabling the mutual communication is called a network. At households, many families create (generally, the term "build" is used) a network to connect PC and gaming machines to the Internet and to exchange data between PC. The network established in a relatively narrow area such as one household is called a LAN (Local Area Network). In this manual, a term "home network" (network for a family) is used instead of "LAN," so this LAN becomes more familiar. By connecting this unit with the network server such as a PC, playing music files in the network server (in the PC) is possible. Moreover, by connecting to the Internet, listening to the Internet radio is also possible. This unit, PC, and Internet are not directly connected. When connecting with a PC and/or Internet, several components (network components) are necessary. Components necessary for establishing a home network (LAN): Components necessary for the home network (LAN) for using the NET function of this unit are as follows. Router A router is a device that controls information (data) flow between the unit, PC, and the Internet. As a network term, the flow of information (data) is called "traffic". The router has a role to control the information flow as the traffic control, between connected components. A router with a builtin 100BaseTX switch is recommended. In addition, if your router has the DHCP function, facilitating the network setting becomes possible. Some routers have a builtin modem, and some Internet Service Providers (ISP) require you to use specific routers. Please consult your ISP or PC dealer if you are unsure. CAT5 Ethernet cable The Ethernet cable is a cable that actually connects components that comprise the network. There are straight type and cross type Ethernet cables. ...

Consult your cable store for details of Ethernet cable. Network server (When PC etc./network server is used) Component that stores music files and provides the unit with those files at the time of playback. Requirements for use with this unit depend on the component that is used as a network server. Conditions for pleasant playback of music files on the unit depend on the using network server (PC performance). See instruction manuals of using components. Modem (when Internet radio is used) Device that connects home network (LAN) and Internet There are many kinds of modems depending on the forms of Internet connection. In addition, when connecting to the Internet, it is required to conclude an agreement with a company that provides Internet connection service, called ISP (Internet Service Provider). Use a modem that is recommended by your ISP company for the Internet connection. There are some devices that have both router and modem functions. Within above network components, prepare a router, Ethernet cable, and network server when the NET function "network server" is used. For enjoying the NET function "Internet radio," it is necessary to use the router, Ethernet cable, and modem (and agreement with ISP).
