Full-OSD Time-Out Adjustment
The FULL OSD menu system is used to simplify
the setup and adjustment of the AVR 445 by using a
s
eries of on-screen menus. The factory default setting
f
or these menus leaves them on the screen for 20
seconds after a period of inactivity before they disap-
pear from the screen (Time-Out). Time-Out is a safety
measure to prevent image retention of the menu text
i
n your monitor or projector, which might happen if it
were left on indefinitely. However, some viewers may
prefer a slightly longer or shorter period before the
on-screen display disappears.
With the
ADVANCED menu on the screen
(Figure 23) make certain that the cursor is next to the
FULL OSD TIME OUT line by pressing the

Next, press the

until the desired time is displayed in seconds. Unlike
most of the other options in this menu, this is a per-
manent setting change, and the Time-Out entry will
remain in effect until it is changed, even if the unit is
turned off.
If you wish to make other adjustments, press the

DMP/ Auto Power
When using Harman Kardon’s optional
iPod docking station, the normal operation is to have
the iPod selected as the input source only when it is
specifically chosen. However, you may set the AVR so
that whenever the iP
od is turned on,
the
AVR will also
turn on automatically and set The Bridge as the input.
To change the setting, first make certain that the
ADVANCED menu (Figure 23) is on the screen,
and then press the
