ADVANCED FEATURES 53

ENGLISH

The AVR is equipped with a number of advanced

features that add extra flexibility to the unit’s

operation. While it is not necessary to use these

features to operate the unit, they provide addi-

tional options that you may wish to use.

To change a setting from its factory default, you

will use the

ADVANCED SELECT menu.

First press the TC 30's Device Button

, then

press the Screen Button

next to AV

RECEIVER

in the display and then press the

Menu Button

. With the ZR 10 remote,

press the OSD Button E to call up the

MAIN MENU (Figure 1). Next, press the

⁄

Navigation Buttons

F so that the cursor

is next to

ADVANCED; then press the

OK/Enter Button

on the TC 30 or the Set

Button Q on the ZR 10. When the

ADVANCED SELECT menu (Figure 31)

appears, follow the instructions shown below to

make any needed configuration adjustments.

Front-Panel-Display Fade

In normal operation, the front-panel displays and

indicators remain on at full brightness, although

you may also dim them or turn them off as

shown on page 51. As an additional option, you

may also set the AVR so that the displays are on

whenever a button is pressed on the front panel

or remote, but then fade out after a set period of

time.

With the

ADVANCED SELECT menu on

your video display, press the

⁄

Navigation

Button

F so that the ➞ cursor is pointed

to the

VFD FADE TIME OUT line. Next,

press the

‹

›

Navigation Button

F so

that the amount of time that you wish the dis-

plays to fade out after a button is pressed is

shown.

Once this time is set and the unit returned to

normal operation, the displays will remain on for

the time period selected whenever a button is

pressed on the front panel or remote. After that

time they will gradually fade out, with the excep-

tion of the lighting surrounding the Standby/On

Switch

, which remains on to remind you

that the AVR is turned on. Note that if the dis-

plays have been turned completely off using the

Dim Button, as shown on page 51, the Fade

function will not operate.

If you wish to make adjustments to other items

on the

ADVANCED SELECT menu, press

the

⁄

Navigation Button

F to place

the ➞ cursor next to the desired item, or place

the ➞ cursor next to the

BACK TO

MASTER MENU

line and press the OK/Enter

Button

on the TC 30 or the Set Button

Q on the ZR 10 to make an adjustment to

another menu. If you have completed all adjust-

ments, press the Menu Button

or the OSD

Button E to exit the menu system.

Display Brightness

The AVR’s front panel Main Information

Display

is set at a default brightness level

that is sufficient for viewing in a normally lit

room. However, in some home theater installa-

tions, you may wish to occasionally lower the

brightness of the display, or turn it off completely.

To change the brightness setting, at the

ADVANCED SELECT menu, make certain

that the on-screen ➞ cursor is next to the

VFD

line, and press the

›

Button

F until the

desired brightness level is highlighted in the

video display. When

FULL is highlighted, the

display is at its normal brightness. When

HALF

is highlighted, the display is at half the normal

brightness level. When

OFF is highlighted, all of

the indicators in the Main Information

Display

will go dark. Note, however, that the

Power Indicator

, will always remain lit to

remind you that the unit is turned on.

If you wish to make other adjustments in the

menu, press the

⁄

Buttons

F until the

on-screen ➞ cursor is next to the desired setting

or the

BACK TO MASTER MENU line and

press the OK/Enter Button

on the TC 30

or the Set Button Q on the ZR 10. If you have

no other adjustments to make, press the Menu

Button

or the OSD Button E to exit the

menu system.

Turn On Volume Level

As is the case with most audio/video receivers,

when the AVR is turned on, it will always return

to the volume setting in effect when the unit was

turned off. However, you may prefer to always

have the AVR turn on at a specific setting,

regardless of what was last in use when the unit

was turned off. To change the default condition

so that the same volume level is always used at

turn-on, you will need to make an adjustment in

the

ADVANCED SELECT menu.

At the

ADVANCED SELECT menu make

certain that the on-screen ➞ cursor is next to the

VOLUME DEFAULT line by pressing the

⁄

buttons

F as needed. Next, press the

➞ button

F so that the word ONis high-

lighted in the video display. Next, press the

button

F once so that the on-screen ➞

cursor is next to the

DEFAULT VOL SET

line. To set the desired turn-on volume, press the

‹

›

buttons

F or hold them pressed until

the desired volume level is shown on the

DEFAULT VOL SET line. Note that this set-

ting may NOT be made with the regular volume

controls.

NOTE: Since the setting for the turn-on volume

cannot be heard while the setting is being made,

you may wish to determine the setting before

making the adjustment. To do this, listen to any

source and adjust the volume to the desired level

using the regular volume controls



I. When

the desired volume level to be used at turn-on is

reached, make a note of the setting as it appears

in the lower third of the video screen or in the

Main Information Display

A typical volume level will appear as a negative

number such as -25dB. When making the

adjustment, use the

‹

›

buttons

F to

enter this setting.

Unlike some of the other adjustments in this

menu, the turn-on volume default will remain in

effect even when the unit is turned off comple-

tely, unless it is changed or turned off in this

menu.

If you wish to make other adjustments in the

menu, press the

⁄

Buttons

F until the

on-screen ➞ cursor is next to the desired setting

or the

BACK TO MASTER MENU line and

press the OK/Enter Button

on the TC 30

or the Set Button Q on the ZR 10. If you have

no other adjustments to make, press the Menu

Button

or the OSD Button E to exit the

menu system.
