[. . . ] AVR600 Handbook AVR surround amplifier English Class II product This equipment is a Class II or double insulated electrical appliance. It has been designed in such a way that it does not require a safety connection to electrical earth (`ground' in the U. S. ). safety guidelines CAUTION: To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not remove cover (or back). WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose this apparatus to rain or moisture. The lightning flash with an arrowhead symbol within an equilateral triangle, is intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated `dangerous voltage' within the product's enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock to persons. [. . . ] These settings are applied to the named Input only and are stored in memory and recalled each time the unit is powered up and whenever that input is selected. Input ­ The currently selected input connectors to which the settings below relate. You can change the name of any input to more closely match your setup. For example, if you had two satellite receivers, you could connect the main receiver to the Sat audio and video input connectors and change the Name to `SAT 1'. You could then connect the second satellite receiver to the VCR audio and video input connectors, but change the VCR Name to `SAT 2'. It is then clearer to users of your AVR600 which inputs they wish to select when scrolling though. Lip Sync ­ Each input can have its own setting to add a time delay between the audio and video signals to compensate for the sound and picture not being synchronised. This is normally required when video processing is used in the system for scaling or de-interlacing video. Mode ­ Sets the initial audio decode mode for stereo sources on this input. < Last Mode recalls the last used setting for this input when a stereo source was applied. See section `Multi-channel source modes' on page 41 for more information. Mode ­ Sets the initial audio decode mode for multi-channel digital sources on this input. < Last Mode recalls the last used setting for this input when a stereo source was applied. See section `Multi-channel source modes' on page 41 for more information. Treble ­ Bass ­ These allow you to alter the bass and treble tone controls for all currently active speakers for each individual Room EQ ­ When the Auto Speaker Setup function is run it also calculates Room Equalisation coefficients to remove some of the worst effects of resonant frequencies of the room at the listening position. By default Room EQ is not applied to any of the source inputs, however you can enable them on a per-input basis as you wish. < Not Calculated: (Information only) Auto Speaker Setup has not been run or has errors so cannot be selected. Input Trim ­ Sets the maximum analogue input signal level (sensitivity) on this input before the ADC (Analogue-to-Digital converter) signal path clips. For example, analogue sources with low output levels may benefit by choosing the 1V maximum setting, or the 0. 5V maximum setting if the source has a very low output. This helps maximise signal-to-noise performance of the AVR600 and also helps keep the various analogue sources sounding about the same level for any given AVR600 volume control setting. Dolby Volume ­Dolby Volume is an intelligent system that improves the perceived audio frequency response at lower listening levels and corrects for volume inconsistencies between sources (e. g. < Cinema: enables Dolby Volume for this source and configures the input for audio which comes mostly from movie soundtracks. [. . . ] < the DVD player has been set to output `bitstream' audio on the digital output. < a USB memory device is connected that conforms to the mass storage class. < the computer is connected via a network and not USB ­ the AVR600 USB port cannot be used for a direct connection to a computer and the network hardware. use DHCP. < the Ethernet cable you are using is correctly connected between the AVR600 < the network is set up for fixed IP addressing and you have the AVR600 set to < the network is set up for DHCP and you have the AVR600 set to use fixed IP addressing. When playing a Dolby Digital DVD, the AVR600 selects Dolby Pro Logic Hum on the analogue input < you have a digital connection from your DVD player. < sometimes Dolby Digital DVD discs contain material at either the beginning or the end of the main movie that is not in full 5. 1 format, but in twochannel or Pro Logic decoding. < all cables are making a good connection.
