System Setup - Harman Kardon HS300 Service Manual

HS300
INITIAL SETUP
Before you begin enjoying your new home theater, a few adjustments
should be made to configure the system.
Make sure that you have connected a video display to one of the video
monitor outputs. When you turn on your display and the HS 300, you
should see the HS 300's splash screen. The last-used source will be
selected. If it was the Disc Player, the HS 300 will determine whether a
disc is loaded and, if so, begin play. If not, the splash screen will remain.
For other sources the corresponding screen will be displayed.
Using the On-Screen Menu System
The HS 300 uses two types of menu screens: Setup menus and
Source menus.
Press the Setup Menu button on the remote to display the System
Setup menu. See Figures 32 and 33.

All of the HS 300's menu screens follow the same basic format.
The top line is the Main Menu line. The first six selections correspond
to the source inputs. Selecting one of these menus also selects that
source. The last item is the Setup menu that is used to configure the
HS 300's system settings.
The HS 300 displays instructions at the bottom of the screen to guide
you in making your selections. When adjusting a setting, available
options will appear below the instructions line.
On the left side of the screen are navigation icons that may be used to
access the submenus or display information. Use the Navigation buttons
on the remote to highlight an icon, and press the Enter button to select
or deselect it. When the icon is selected, it will look like a button that
has been pressed in. When it is deselected, it looks like a button in the
out position.
Most of the screen contains the various configuration settings, with the
current setting displayed to the right. Use the Navigation buttons to
highlight a setting. See Figure 34.
Figure 34 – Selecting a Setting
Press the Enter Button to make changes to the setting. The screen's
appearance will change to alert you that you are affecting the system
configuration. The selected setting line will remain fully lit, and the setting
itself will change from a button to plain text with arrows on both sides.
The remaining setting lines on the screen will dim. On the options line
at the bottom of the screen, the current setting will be highlighted as
a button. Use the ‹ / › buttons to scroll through the options list. As
various options are highlighted at the bottom of the screen, the new
setting will appear on the setting line. See Figure 35.
Figure 35 – Choosing a New Option for a Setting
Press the Enter Button when the desired setting is highlighted, and use
the / buttons to select another setting line.

When you have made all desired adjustments to the current submenu,
use the Navigation buttons to highlight the icon for the next submenu,
and press the Enter Button to switch to that submenu.
When you have finished adjusting all settings, press the OSD button
(but not the Setup Menu button) to clear the menu from the display.
See Figure 32.
Step One – System Setup
In this step you will configure some basic system settings using the
System Setup submenu. Press the Setup Menu button and the Enter
button as explained above to access the settings in this submenu. Your
screen should look similar to the one shown in Figure 33.
DISPLAY LANGUAGE: This setting selects the language that will be
used for the HS 300's OSD menus and other system messages.
The default is English, but you may select French, Spanish, German
or Italian.
