Output Level Trim Adjustment
Normal output level adjustment for the
AVR 2000 is established using the test tone, as
outlined on pages 21 and 22. In some cases,
however, it may be desirable to adjust the output
levels using program material such as a test disc,
or a selection you are familiar with.Additionally,
the output level for the subwoofer and those for
the Stereo and VMAx modes can only be adjust-
ed using this procedure.
To adjust the output levels using program materi-
al, first select the surround mode for which you
want to trim the speakers (see NOTE below) by
selecting the appropriate input, associated with
the desired surround mode, start your program
material source and set the reference volume for
the front left and front right channels using the
Volume Control
(
V
.
Once the reference level has been set, press the
Channel Select button
B
Û
and note that
FRONT L LEVwill appear in the Main
Information Display
X
. To change the level,
first press the Set button
E
Ó
, and then use
the Selector buttons
5
or the
⁄
/
¤
buttons
C
to raise or lower the level. DO NOT use the
volume control, as this will alter the reference
setting.
Once the change has been made, press the Set
button
E
Ó
and then press the Selector but-
tons
5
or the ⁄/¤ buttons
C
to select the
next output channel location that you wish to
adjust.To adjust the subwoofer level, press the
Selector buttons 5 or the
⁄/¤ buttons
C
until WOOFER LEVappears in the Main
Information Display
X
. (Only available if the
subwoofer was selected during the speaker con-
figuration, see page 18).
Press the Set button
E
Ó
when the name of
the desired channel appears in the Main
Information Display
X
, and follow the
instructions shown above to adjust the level.
Repeat the procedure as needed until all chan-
nels requiring adjustment have been set.When
all adjustments have been made press the Set
button
E
Ó
twice, the AVR 2000 will return
to normal operation.
NOTE: The output levels may be separately
trimmed for each digital and analog surround
mode. If you wish to have different trim levels for a
specific mode, select that mode and then follow the
instructions in the steps shown above.
Changing the levels using trim adjustment as
described above will automatically change the
level settings shown in the Output Adjustment
(see page 21) correspondingly (and vice versa)
and will remain in the AVR 2000´s memory
system, even when the unit is turned off.With
Stereo and Vmax modes the adjustment proce-
dure described above is the only way to trim the
output level (e.g. to match the Vmax level with
other modes).
Display Brightness
The AVR 2000’s front panel Main Information
Display
Ú
is set at a default brightness level
that is sufficient for viewing in a normally lit
room. However, in some home theater installa-
tions, you may wish to occasionally lower the
brightness of the display, or turn it off completely.
The display brightness may be changed by press-
ing and holding the Set button
Ó
on the front
for three seconds until the message in the Main
Information Display
X
reads VFD
FULL. Within five seconds, press the front
panel Selector buttons
5
until the desired
brightness display level is shown.At that point,
press the Set button
Ó
again to enter the
setting.
Once the desired brightness level is selected, it
will remain in effect until it is changed again or
until the unit is turned off.
Memory Backup
This product is equipped with a memory backup
system that preserves tuner presets and system
configuration information if the unit is turned off
completely, accidentally unplugged or subjected
to a power outage. This memory will last for
approximately two weeks, after which time all
information must be reentered.
