Operation
Press the Set button
when the name of the
desired channel appears in the Main
Information Display
and on-screen display,
and follow the instructions shown above to
adjust the level.
Repeat the procedure as needed until all chan-
nels requiring adjustment have been set. When
all adjustments have been made press the Set
button
twice, the AVR will return to normal
operation.
NOTE: The output levels may be separately
trimmed for each digital and analog surround mode.
If you wish to have different trim levels for a specific
mode, select that mode and then follow the instruc-
tions in the steps shown above.
Changing the levels by the trim adjustment as
described above will automatically change the
level settings shown during the Output Level
Adjustment (see page 19) correspondingly (and
vice versa) and will remain in the AVR´s memory
system, even when the unit is turned off. With
Stereo modes the adjustment procedure
described above is the only way to trim the out-
put level.
6-Channel Direct Input
The AVR is equipped for future expansion
through the use of optional, external adapters for
formats that the AVR may not be capable of
processing. When an adapter is connected to the
6-Channel Direct Input
, you may select it
by pressing the 6-Ch Direct Input Selector
. The 6-Channel Direct Input may also be
selected by pressing the Input Source Selector
button
on the front panel until the words
appear in the Main
6 C H
DIRECT
Information Display
, and a blue LED lights
next to 6 CH in the Input Indicators
Note that when the 6-Channel Direct Input is in
use, you may not select a surround mode, as the
external decoder determines processing. In
addition, there is no signal at the record outputs
when the 6-Channel Direct Input is in use.
Display Brightness
The AVR's front panel Main Information
Display
is set at a default brightness level
that is sufficient for viewing in a normally lit
room. However, in some home theater installa-
tions, you may wish to occasionally lower the
brightness of the display, or turn it off completely.
You can also adjust the Display Brightness by
pressing the Dim Button
on the remote
control. Note that the blue lighting inside the
volume control and the Power Indicator
will remain lit at normal brightness to remind you
that the unit is still turned on.
Memory Backup
This product is equipped with a memory backup
system that preserves tuner presets and system
configuration information if the unit is turned off
completely, accidentally unplugged or subjected
to a power outage. This memory will last for
approximately 1 week, after which time all
information must be reentered.
Tuner Operation
The AVR's tuner is capable of tuning AM, FM and
FM Stereo broadcast stations and receiving RDS
data. Stations may be tuned manually, or they
may be stored as favorite station presets and
recalled from a 30 position memory.
Station Selection
1. Press the AM/FM Tuner Select button
on the remote to select the tuner as an input. The
tuner may be selected from the front panel by
either pressing the Input Source Selector
until the tuner is active or by pressing the Tuner
