as well as being indicated in the front-panel Input
Indicators !. When you are scrolling through the
list of available inputs you will hear a slight click from

relay that is used to switch between the two
Component Video Inputs.

When one of the four Video inputs is selected as the
source, you have the option of renaming the input as it
appears in the on-screen and front panel messages.
This is helpful if you have more than one VCR, if you
wish to associate a specific product brand name with
the input, or to simply enter any name that will help
you to remember which source is being selected.
To change the input name, press the
⁄
Navigation Button o on the remote so that the
cursor is pointing to NAME. Next, press and hold
the Set Button q for a few seconds until a flashing
box appears to the right of the colon. Immediately
release the Set Button q, as you are now ready
to enter the device name.
Navigation Button o and note
Press the /

that a complete set of alpha-numeric characters will
appear with the start of the alphabet in capital letters
followed by the lower-case letters and then numbers
and symbols. When you press the
¤
Button o, a series of symbols and numbers will
appear, followed by a reverse list of the alphabet in
lower-case letters. Press the button either way until the
first letter of the desired name appears. If you wish to
enter a blank space as the first character, press the ›
Navigation Button o.
When the desired character appears, press the ›
Navigation Button o and repeat the process for
the next letter, and continue until the desired name is
entered, up to a maximum of fourteen characters.
Press the Set Button q to enter the input name
once so
into the system memory and to proceed with the con-
figuration process.
If your system includes any sources that are equipped
with Y/Pr/Pb component video outputs, the AVR 430
is able to switch them to send the proper signals to
your video display. Each of the two Component
Video Inputs cd may be assigned to any source
for added system flexibility. The default setting is for
the Component Video 1 Jacks c to be assigned
to the DVD and 6/8-Channel Direct Inputs, with the
Component Video 2 Jacks d assigned to all other
inputs. If your system does not include component
video at this time, or if you do not need to change
these defaults, press the
to go to the next setting.

of the desired digital input appears. To return to the
analog input, press the button until the word
ANALOG appears.
When configuring the digital input for a source device
such as a digital cable box or other set-top tuner
product with a digital audio output where you have
Navigation
connected both the digital and analog outputs of the
source to the AVR, select the appropriate digital input
on this menu. The digital source will become the
default, and the AVR will always look there first to
see if a signal is present. However, if the digital data
stream is interrupted for any reason, the AVR will
automatically switch to the analog connection as a
backup. This is particularly useful when configuring
the connection for digital set top boxes, where some
channels feature digital sound, but others do not.
SYSTEM CONFIGURATION
To change the digital input at any time using the dis-
crete function buttons and the semi-OSD system,
press the Digital Select Button p on the remote.
Within five seconds, make your input selection using

Line # and in the lower line of the on-screen dis-

digital input assignment.
When all needed adjustments have been made, press
the
next to BACK TO MASTER MENU to con-
tinue with the system configuration.
