Transport Controls are set at the factory to oper-
ate your DVD player, or the controls of a specific
device such as a VCR or CD player when they are
selected. However, by using the Transport Punch-
Through feature you may program these controls to

example, you may wish to operate the transport of a
second VCR connected to the VID 2/TV input, as
shown in the following example.

EzSet Configuration
Harman Kardon’s patented EzSet feature makes it easi-
er
than ever to calibrate the output levels on your new
receiver for maximum playback accuracy. In addition
to automatically setting the levels, the AVR remote’s
LCD display allows the unit to be used as a direct
read-out SPL meter. Complete instructions for using
the EzSet features of the AVR remote are found on
pages 26 – 28 of this owner’s manual.
In most cases you will find it easier to access the
EzSet capabilities directly by pressing the
SPL Select
Button
i and following the menu prompts as
detailed on pages 26 and 27. However, there is one
function of the remote that is only available through
the remote’s menu system being described in this
section.
To avoid having the calibration settings created with
EzSet changed accidentally, the remote allows you to
disable the
SPL Select Button i on the remote.
To de-activate the button, follow these steps:
1. Press and hold the
Program Button
O
for
about three seconds while the message shown
in Figure 17 appears in the remote’s
LCD
Information Display
2
. Release the button
when the red light under the
Set Button
q
appears.

The remote’s MAIN MENU message (Figure 18),
will appear in the LCD display and the Set Button
q
will remain illuminated in red. Press the

Navigation Button o until SET SPKR
LEVELS
appears on the bottom line of the LCD
screen, as shown in Figure 66. Press the
Set
Button

to enter the main EzSet menu
branch.
