The T 777 also supports HDMI features that include compatibility with a
broad range of 3D and HD digital video sources and displays.
A/V PRESET
A particular Source can be assigned a stored Preset. The parameters set up
in the selected Preset number will be adopted into the particular Source it
is assigned (Please refer to the separate section on "A/V Presets" for further
understanding of Preset settings).
If it is desired not to assign the particular Source a Preset setting, select
"None".
TRIGGER OUT
Trigger Out feature for a particular Source is dependent upon the
configurations done in a separate menu on Trigger Setup (See "Trigger
Setup" below). If "Source Setup" is assigned to all three Trigger output
(Trigger Out 1-3) in the separate "Trigger Setup" menu window, a particular
Source can have the following Trigger Out combinations
Trigger Out: 1 $ 2 $ 1 + 2 $ 3 $ 1 + 3 $ 2 + 3 $ 1+2+ 3
These combinations are dependent upon the assignment of "Source Setup"
for Trigger 1 Out, Trigger 2 Out or Trigger 3 Out at the "Trigger Setup" menu.
Another option is "None" whereby the particular Source is not assigned any
Trigger Out.
For "Trigger Out" to become enabled and assignable at "Source Setup"
menu, make sure to carry out or note the following beforehand
• In the separate "Trigger Setup" menu, assign Trigger 1 Out, Trigger 2 Out
or Trigger 3 Out to "Source Setup. "
• "Trigger Out" will not appear as an option at the Source Setup menu
if at the separate "Trigger Setup" menu, Trigger 1 Out, Trigger 2 Out
or Trigger 3 Out are all assigned to "Main, Zone 2, Zone 3, Zone 4, or
Zone 2+3+4"; with not even one "Trigger Out" port allocated to "Source
Setup. "

SPEAKER SETUP

After connecting all ancillary sources and other combinations, the Speaker
Setup menu will guide you on how to manage and setup your speakers in
order to achieve optimum sound acoustics in your listening environment.
The following are the Speaker Setup Menu sections.

SPEAKER CONFIGURATION

Every surround-sound system requires "bass-management" to direct low-
frequency content from any or all channels to the speakers best able to
reproduce it. For this function to operate correctly, it is important that you
correctly identify your speakers' capabilities. We use the terms "Small" and
"Large" (and "Off") but note that physical size may be irrelevant.
•
A "Small" speaker is any model, regardless of physical size, that lacks
significant deep-bass response, that is, below about 200 Hz.
•
A "Large" speaker is any full-range model; that is, one with deep-bass
response
•
An "Off" speaker is one that is not present in your system. For example,
you might not have any surround-back speakers installed; in that case,
you would set the 'Surround' setup item to "Off".
The Speaker Configuration is "global"; that is, it remains in force with all input
and listening modes. However, speaker settings are part of the T 777' s Preset
system. Consequently, multiple speaker settings can be stored for easy recall as
different types of recordings or listening modes require.
Speaker Configuration can be managed and adjusted by pressing a
S D/F
combination of [ ] and then [ ] keys. Set "Front", "Center" and
"Surround" to "Large", "Small"(40Hz to 200Hz) or "Off" as your subsystem's
speakers require.
The "Back" speakers can either be one or two speakers. Set "Back" to either
1 or 2 speakers as per availability. Set "Subwoofer" to "On" or "Off" selecting
"On" only if you have a subwoofer connected to the T 777's SUBW1 or
SUBW2 output jack. If "Subwoofer" is set to "Off", "Front" speakers will
automatically be set to "Large".
