22 SYSTEM CONFIGURATION

System Configuration

Once the speakers have been placed in the room

and connected, the remaining steps are to

program the system configuration memories.

Although it is necessary to assign input/output

settings and surround mode choices manually,

we recommend that you take advantage of the

power and precision of EzSet/EQ II to automati-

cally select and enter the settings for all other

audio parameters. This will not only save you

time; it will ensure that your room is calibrated

and equalized with an accuracy not possible

when these settings are made manually. You are

now ready to power up the AVR 745 to begin

these final adjustments.

First Turn On

You are now ready to power up the AVR to begin

these final adjustments.

1. Make certain that the AC power cord is firmly

inserted in to the AC Power cord Recepticle



and plug the cord into an unswitched AC out-

let. To maintian the unit's safety rating,

DO NOT substitute the power cord for one with

lower current capacity.

2. Press the Main Power Switch

in until it

latches and the word “OFF” on the top of the

switch disappears inside the front panel. Note

that the Power Indicator

will turn orange,

indicating that the unit is in the Standby mode.

3. Remove the protective plastic film from the

main front-panel lens. If left in place, the film

may affect the performance of your remote

control.

4. Turn the AVR on either by pressing the System

Power Control

or the Input Source

Selector

on the front panel, or via the

remote by pressing the the Devices Button

on the TC 30 and then pressing the Screen

Button

at the top of the left side of the

remote, next to the screen message

RECEIVER

. The Power Indicator

will

turn blue to confirm that the unit is on, and the

Main Information Display

will also light

up.

Using the On-Screen Display

When making the following adjustments, you

may find them easier to make via the unit’s on-

screen display system. These easy-to-read

displays give you a clear picture of the current

status of the unit and facilitate speaker, delay,

input or digital selection you are making.

To view the on-screen displays, make certain you

have made a connection video or HDMI on the

rear panel to the appropriate matching input of

your TV or projector. In order to view the AVR’s

displays, the correct video input must be selected

on your video display.

IMPORTANT NOTE: When viewing the on-screen

menus using a CRT-based projector, plasma display

or any direct-view CRT monitor or television, it is

important that they not be left on the screen for an

extended period of time. As with any video display,

but particularly with projectors, constant display of

a static image such as these menus or video game

images may cause the image to be permanently

“burned into” the CRT. This type of damage is not

covered by the AVR warranty and may not be cov-

ered by the projector TV set’s warranty.

The AVR has two on-screen display modes,

“Semi-OSD” and “Full-OSD.” When making con-

figuration adjustments, it is recommended that

the Full-OSD mode be used. This will place a

complete status report or option listing on the

screen, making it easier to view the available

options and make the settings on the screen. The

Semi-OSD mode uses one-line displays only.

Making Configuration Adjustments

To activate and configure the AVR 745 using the

full-OSD system, either the TC 30 remote or the

ZR 10 remote may be used, though you may find

the ZR 10 an easier choice for this purpose.

With the TC 30:

• Press the Devices Button

• When the images on the LCD screen change,

press the Screen Button

at the top of

the left side of the remote, next to the screen

message

AV RECEIVER.

• Press the Menu Button

to activate the

OSD menu system.

• When the

MASTER MENU or any subse-

quent menu is on the screen, use the

⁄

Navigation Buttons

to move through

the menus or submenus. Press the OK/Enter

Button

, when appropriate, to enter a

selection.

• To scroll through the options available for a

specific menu, press the

‹

›

Navigation

Button

. In most cases, you may simply

select the option and then use the

⁄

Navigation Buttons

to move to the next

line, while in some cases you may need to

press the OK/Enter Button

first. The

detailed instructions for each menu will tell you

which buttons to press.

• Press the Menu Button

to remove the

menus from the screen and return to normal

operation.

With the ZR 10:

• Press the OSD Button E to activate the

menu system. The

MASTER MENU

(Figure 1) will appear.

• Once the

MASTER MENU or any subse-

quent menu is on the screen, use the

⁄

Navigation Buttons F to move through

the menus or sub-menus. Press the Set

Button Q, when appropriate, to enter a

selection.

• To scroll through the available options for a

specific menu, press the

‹

›

Navigation

Button F. In most cases, you may simply

select the option and then use the

⁄

Navigation Buttons F to move to the next

option, while in some cases you may need to

press the Set Button Q first. The detailed

instructions for each menu will tell you which

buttons to press.

Figure 1

The full-OSD menus remain on the screen for

twenty seconds after the last button press, after

which they “time out” and disappear from the

screen. The length of time menus remain on the

screen before the time-out may be increased to

as long as fifty seconds by adjusting the settings

for

FULL OSD TIME OUT in the

ADVANCED SELECT menu, as shown on

page 50.

In addition to the menu-driven full-OSD system, a

number of settings and adjustments may be

made directly from the TC 30 remote, using the

semi-OSD system. To make adjustments using the

semi-OSD, with the TC 30:

• Press the Devices Button

• When the images in the LCD change, press the

Screen Button

at the top of the left side

of the remote control, next to the screen mes-

sage

AV RECEIVER.

• The screen images will change again. To adjust

a setting on the first page of options, press the

Screen Button

to the left or right of the

item you wish to change, and then use the

⁄

Navigation Buttons

to move

through the available settings and option

choices. Press the OK/Enter Button

when appropriate, to enter a selection.
