System Configuration
Before using the unit, you will probably want to
change the settings for some inputs so that they
are properly configured to reflect the use of digi-
tal or analog inputs and the surround mode
associated with the input. Remember that since
the AVR memorizes the settings for each input
individually, you will need to make these adjust-
ments for each input used. However, once they
are made, further adjustment is only required
when system components are changed.
To make this process as quick and as easy as
possible, we suggest that you use the full-OSD
system with the on-screen menus, and step
through each input.
In/Out Setup
The first step in configuring the AVR is to select
an input, i.e. to associate an analog or digital
input with each input source in use, e.g. CD or
DVD. Note that once an input is selected, all set-
tings for the Digital Input, Speaker Configuration
and Surround Mode will "attach" themselves to
that input and be stored in a non-volatile memo-
ry. This means that once made, the selection of
an input will automatically recall those settings.
For that reason, the procedures described below
must be repeated for each input source so that
you have the opportunity to custom tailor each
source to your specific listening requirements.
However, once made they need not be changed
again unless you need to alter a setting.
When using the full-OSD system to make the
setup adjustments, press the OSD button
once so that the
MASTER MENU
appears. Note that the ➞ cursor will be next to
the
line. Press the Set but-

24 SYSTEM CONFIGURATION
When any input other than the tuner, 8-channel
inputs or USB input, is selected as the source,
you have the option of renaming the input as it
appears in the on-screen and front panel mes-
sages. 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

colon. Immediately release the Set Button

In normal operation, when a digital audio stream
is interrupted, the unit will automatically switch
to the analog inputs associated with that source.
This is particularly useful with cable set-top boxes
where the input is normally digital, but occasion-
ally changes to analog. If you wish to configure
an input so that the auto-poll circuit is turned off,
