COMPONENT IN: If you connected the source to one of the two compo-
nent video inputs, make sure the correct set of inputs is displayed at this
line. If it isn't, move the cursor to this line, and then press the
change the setting.
AUDIO IN: By default, the analog audio inputs are assigned to all
sources at the factory other than the DVD and Video 2 sources, which
default to Coax 1 and Optical 1, respectively. If you used a digital audio
connection for the source, you will need to change this setting to assign
the correct digital audio input to the source, even if you also connected
the analog audio outputs of the source to the receiver. Move the cursor
to this line, and press the ‹
appears.
AUTO POLL: The Auto Poll feature is used when both an analog audio
and digital audio connection have been made for one source device.
If for some reason no digital signal is available, the AVR 145 will switch
to the analog inputs for the source. This situation can occur with some
cable or satellite television broadcasts, where some channels are broad-
cast with digital audio and others with analog audio.
For some sources, the Auto Poll feature is unnecessary and may be
undesirable. For example, if your DVD player is stopped, you may not
want to use the analog audio signal or you may have decided not to
connect analog audio. Move the cursor to this line, and press the
Buttons until OFF appears, disabling the Auto Poll feature. With Auto Poll
turned off, the receiver will only check for a signal at the audio input
assigned to the source.

trols at their factory defaults for most listening, in order to enjoy the
sound mix created by your favorite movie and music artists. However, if
your room or speakers have unusual characteristics, or simply as a mat-
ter of personal preference, see the Tone Controls section on page 32
