Note: Changes to the trigger setup do not take effect until the Setup Menu is exited completely, to avoid
unnecessary rapid turning off and on of triggers while changes are being made.
Set IR Inputs:
This allows you to enable or disable the AVM 30’s Front IR Receiver and Rear IR Inputs. Being able to do so
can be useful when an IR repeater, connected to the AVM 30, is located in the same room as the AVM 30. In
such a case, the AVM 30 can receive two IR signals for the same command – one from the Remote Control
and one from the repeater. The problem is that rear signal is delayed slightly, and may confuse the IR
Receivers’ control circuits. Disabling the Front IR solves this problem.
In other situations, the IR signal may find its way to the internally mounted IR receiver through the vents in
the top cover. This could also cause confusion for the AVM 30. If the Rear IR inputs are not in use, simply
disable them to prevent any potential problems.
After highlighting an IR input, press SELECT and use the buttons to move from one Path to another. To
turn the input off, use the  buttons to change the ‘*’ to a ‘’. Do this through the Front Panel, since
Remote Control commands are ineffective once an IR sensor is turned off.
Note: If the AVM 30 does not respond to Remote Control commands, check the FRONT IR menu – enter
the Setup using the Front Panel buttons, go to menu ‘9. TRIGGERS/IR/RS-232’, followed by
‘e. SET IR-INPUTS’, and make sure the FRONT IR settings are set to ‘*’.
Baud Rate and Flow Control:
The Baud Rate (adjustable from 1200 to 115200 bps), and Flow Control (‘RTS’, ‘CTS’, or ‘None’), allow
configuration of the serial port communication parameters (normally for use by dealer/installers only).
RS-232 TX Status:
When ‘On’, all commands, status changes, and control information are echoed through the RS-232 port
(normally for use by dealer/installers only).
Example: Activate Trigger1 when DVD is selected in MAIN.
Enter the Setup (section 7.1). Go to ‘9. TRIGGERS/IR/RS-232’ and press SELECT.
Upon entering this menu item, ‘a. ALL TRIGGERS: Disabled’ will be highlighted in red.
Use the buttons to change to ‘Enabled’.
•Press the button to go to ‘b. SET TRIGGER 1. Press SELECT.
Use the  buttons to go to ‘DVD’. Press SELECT.
Use the  buttons to change the ‘’ to ‘*’.
•Press BACK twice to leave this submenu.
