MAIN REMOTE CONTROL FUNCTIONS
t Direct Button: Press this button when the tuner
is in use to start the sequence for direct entry of a sta-
tion’s frequency. After pressing the button, simply
press the proper
Numeric Keys r to select a sta-
tion. (See page 28 for more information on the tuner.)
u Tuning Up/Down: When the tuner is in use, these
buttons will tune up or down through the selected fre-
quency band. If the
Tuner Mode Button s& has
been pressed so that
AUTO appears in the on-
screen display and
Lower Display Line ¯, pressing

v OSD Button: Press this button to activate the
On-Screen Display (OSD) system used to set up or
adjust the AVR 230’s parameters.
w Dolby Mode Selector: This button is used to
select from among the available Dolby Surround pro-
cessing modes. Each press of this button will select
one of the Dolby Pro Logic II modes or Dolby 3
Stereo. When a Dolby Digital-encoded source is in use,
the Dolby Digital mode may also be selected. (See
page 26 for the available Dolby surround mode
options.)
x DTS Digital Mode Selector: When a DTS-
encoded digital source is selected, each press of this
button will scroll through the available DTS modes. The
specific choice of modes will vary according to whether
or not the source material contains DTS-ES 6.1
Discrete encoding. When a DTS source is not in use,
this button has no function. (See page 26 for the avail-
able DTS Digital options.)
y Logic 7 Mode Select Button: Press this button
to select from among the available Logic 7 surround
modes. (See page 26 for the available Logic 7
options.)
z Skip Up/Down Buttons: These buttons do not
have a direct function with the AVR 230, but when
used with a compatibly programmed CD or DVD
changer they will change to the previous disc in the
changer or carousel.
` Transport Controls: These buttons do not have
any functions for the AVR 230, but they may be
programmed for the forward/reverse play operation
of a wide variety of CD or DVD players, and audio or
video cassette recorders. (See page 36 for more
information.)
Stereo Mode Select Button: When the button
is pressed so that
DSP SURR OFF appears in
the
Lower Display Line ¯, the AVR will operate in
a bypass mode with true, fully analog, two-channel

bass management, as opposed to other modes where
digital processing is used. When the button is pressed
so that
SURROUND OFF appears in the Lower
Display Line
¯, you may enjoy a two-channel pre-
sentation of the sound along with the benefits of bass
management. Depending on whether your system is
configured for 5.1 or 6.1/7.1 channels, the next press
of the button will cause either
5CHSTEREO or
7CHSTEREO to appear, and the stereo signal
will be routed to all five (or seven) speakers. (See
page 26 for more information on stereo playback
modes.)
DTS Neo:6 Mode Select: Press this button to
select a DTS Neo:6 mode. These modes take a two-

and create a full five-, six- or seven-channel sound
field. (See page 26 for the DTS Neo:6 options.)
Macro Buttons: Press these buttons to store or
recall a “Macro”, which is a preprogrammed sequence
of commands stored in the remote. (See page 32 for
more information on storing and recalling macros.)
Disc Skip Button: This button has no direct
function for the AVR 230 but is most often used to
change to the next disc in a CD or DVD player when
the remote is programmed for that type of device.
(See page 36 for more information on using the
remote with products other than the AVR 230.)
Preset Up/Down: When the tuner is in use,
press these buttons to scroll through the stations
programmed into the AVR 230’s memory. When
