Is DSP writing mode entered? (Simultaneously press and hold the ↑ and VIDEO SELECT keys.)
Is DIR locked? → You can check this on the Signal Select indicator if the input is set to Auto and
Digital. If DIR is not locked, check the input function and digital connections between the player
and this unit.
Is the stream (Track No., etc.) being played back correct?
Are compressed audio signals, such as WMA, being input when or after writing mode is entered ?
→ As soon as the compressed audio signals are input, writing mode is exited. It is recommended
that playback be paused at the beginning of the track of a updating stream then writing mode is
entered by simultaneous pressing of the keys. Release Pause mode after entering of writing mode
is confirmed.
Make sure that the player being used is appropriate for updating, in the following way:
• Turn the receiver off.
• Connect a speaker to the front channel of the receiver.
• Turn the receiver back on normally. (Normal power on, not by simultaneous pressing of the keys)
• Turn the volume up moderately.
• Play back the WMA9Pro stream stored on the last track of the disc.
Note: Do not turn the volume up too much, as a large noise may be generated when this test
stream is played back on some players.
→ If music is played back normally, that player can be used for updating. ("WMA" indication on the
FL display)
→ If noise is output, updating cannot be done with that player. Use another player.
Tips: The fact that PCM data can be played back or that a dts-CD can be played back does not
mean that the player can be used for updating.
Is the volume control of the receiver set to -∞ dB? If not, set it to -∞ dB (- - -).
Reset the receiver then enter writing mode.
Note: All the user data stored in the receiver are cleared when the receiver is reset.
Is the track played back from the beginning to the end?
→ With the receiver in writing mode, be sure to play back the stream track twice.
If an error is generated because any scratches on the disc, "OK" is not displayed.
→ In such a case, play back the same stream stored on another track as backup.
