Initial Setup; Using The On-Screen Menu System - Harman Kardon AVR 347 Owner's Manual

Before you begin enjoying your new receiver, a few adjustments should
be made to configure the AVR 347 to match your actual system.
Make sure that you have connected a video display to one of the video
monitor outputs on the receiver. When you turn on your display and the
AVR, you should see a blue screen. A message may appear briefly at
the bottom of the screen. This message is part of the on-screen display
system, and is referred to as the "semi-OSD". The semi-OSD is activated
any time you send a command to the AVR, and any time the AVR
detects a change in the incoming signal. Semi-OSD messages are
overlaid on top of any video signal, so that you may continue to watch
your program while making adjustments to the AVR.
Although it's possible to configure the AVR using only the remote and
the semi-OSD messages, we recommend that you use the full-screen
menu system, known as the "full OSD".

Using the On-Screen Menu System

The full-OSD system is accessed by pressing the OSD Button on the
remote. See Figure 47. While the full-OSD system is in use, it isn't
possible to see any video programming. In addition, an OSD ON
message will appear on the front panel of the receiver to remind
you to use a video display.
Figure 47 – Navigation Buttons
NOTE: The ‹ / › and Set Buttons on the front panel have no
effect on the OSD system.
The OSD system consists of six main menus: Input Setup, Surround
Setup, Speaker Setup, Multiroom Setup, Video Setup and System Setup.
Navigation tabs for each menu appear on the left side of the screen.
When you first press the OSD Button, the Input Setup menu will be visi-
ble (see Figure 48), since its tab is at the top of the screen. However,
you must press the Set Button to select the Input Setup menu so that
you can make any necessary adjustments. If you wish to select another
menu, use the / Buttons to highlight the tab for the desired menu,
⁄ ¤
and press the Set Button to select it.

INITIAL SETUP

Figure 48 – OSD System
When you first select a menu, the first setting line will be highlighted
(see Figure 49).

If you wish to change that setting, press the Set Button. Although the
setting name will remain highlighted, the value will appear in blue type
with arrows to the left and right, indicating that you may use the
Buttons to scroll through the available values. See Figure 50. When the
desired value appears, press the Set Button to select it.
Figure 50 – Changing a Setting
Use the / Buttons to navigate to other settings within the menu.

When you have finished making all adjustments in that menu, press the
‹
Button to return to the navigation tabs, and then use the
Buttons to select the tab for another menu.
We recommend that most users follow the instructions in this INITIAL
SETUP section to configure a basic home theater system. You may
return to these menus at any time to make additional adjustments.
Thanks to the EzSet/EQ system, most of the menu adjustments may
be saved until you have become more familiar with the AVR, and are
therefore described in the Advanced Functions section.
