3. SETUP MENU continued …
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 50’s infra-red inputs. Being able to do so can be useful when
an IR receiver, connected to the AVM 50, is located in the same room as the AVM 50. In such a case, the
AVM 50 can receive two IR signals for the same command – one through the front, and one through the back.
The potential result is that whatever you’re trying to command may not respond. Disabling the Front IR solves
this problem.
In rare 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 IR commands to be intermittent or ineffective. 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.
If the AVM 50 does not respond to Remote Control commands, enter the Setup using the Front Panel
buttons, go to menu ‘10. TRIGGERS/IR/RS-232’, followed by ‘e. SET IR-INPUTS’, and make sure the
FRONT IR settings are set to ‘*’. Try this before contacting technical support (see also section 5.6).
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 only by custom installers).
RS-232 TX Status:
When ‘On’, all commands, status changes, and control information are echoed through the RS-232 port
(normally for use only by custom installers).
Example: Activate Trigger1 when DVD1 is selected in MAIN.
Enter the Setup Menu. Go to ‘10. 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 ‘DVD1’. Press SELECT.
Use the  buttons to change the ‘’ to ‘*’.
Press BACK twice to leave this submenu.
