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 set-
ting, 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
SYSTEMSETUP
menu.To start the adjustment, press the OSD
button
L
to bring the main menu (Figure 1) to
the screen. Press the

to confirm. Note that this setting 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
d
.
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
Ò
.
A typical volume level will appear as a negative
number such as -25dB. When making the
adjustment, use the

enter this setting.
Unlike some of the other adjustments in this

completely, unless it is changed or turned off in
this menu.

Semi-OSD Settings
The semi-OSD system places two-line messages
at the lower third of the video display screen
whenever the Volume, Input Source, Surround
mode or tuner frequency of any of the configura-
tion settings are changed.The semi-OSD system
is helpful in that enables you to have feedback
on any control changes or remote commands
using the video display when it is difficult to
view the front-panel displays. However, you may
occasionally prefer to turn these displays off for
a particular listening session.You may also want
to adjust the length of time the displays remain
on the screen. Both of those options are possible
with the AVR.
To turn off the semi-OSD system, you will need
to make an adjustment in the
SYSTEM
SETUP
menu (Figure 32).To start the adjust-
ment, press the OSD button
L
to bring the
main menu to the screen. Press the

semi-OSD displays will remain activated, even if
they were switched off for the previous listening
session.

displays remain on the screen, go to the

Full-OSD Time Out Adjustment
The FULL OSDmenu system is used to
simplify the setup and adjustment of the AVR
using a series of on-screen menus. The factory
default setting for these menus leaves them on
the screen for 20 seconds after a period of inac-
tivity before they disappear from the screen or
Time Out. This Time Out is a safety measure to
prevent the menu text from burning into the
CRTs in your monitor or projector, which might
happen if they were left on indefinitely. However,
some viewers may prefer a slightly longer or
shorter period before the Time Out display.
To change the Full-OSD Time Out, you will need
to make an adjustment in the
SYSTEM
SETUP
menu (Figure 32).To start the adjust-
ment, press the OSD button

nent setting change, and the time-out entry will
remain in effect until it is changed, even when
the unit is turned off.
