Using The Menu System
The AVP2 uses a dynamically-updated menu system that operates more intelli-
gently than most such systems. For example, when configuring inputs, the menu
options change according to the selections you have already made. In effect, the
AVP2 only asks you for relevant information, thereby minimizing confusion.
Four buttons on the remote control are used to navigate through its extensive on
screen menu system:
menu, enter, volume +, volume –.
You may also navigate the menus from the front panel. The volume knob on the
may be used interchangeably with the volume ± buttons on the remote. If you
are more comfortable navigating the menu from the front panel, pressing and
holding recall will get you into the menu system (much as pressing menu would
from the remote); once in the menu system, recall continues to serve as menu
would (though you no longer have to press and hold it). Finally, while in the
menu system, pressing mute on the front panel has the same effect as pressing
enter on the remote. Thus:
• volume ± = volume knob
• menu = recall
(must press and hold to enter menu system)
• enter = mute
For clarity’s sake, in most of the rest of the manual will refer to the labelled re-
mote control commands only, rather than always making awkward references to
menu (recall) or similar constructions. Just remember that you can use the
menus just as easily from the front panel as from the remote control.
to enter the menu system Pressing menu once will display the AVP2 Main Menu of the on screen menu
system. Note that the front panel display of the AVP2 shows –SETUP MENU– when
you enter the on screen menu system (to encourage you to look on screen,
where the important information is). The main menu provides access to the three
major function areas of the menu system:
• The Operate Menu is where user preferences are set. These items
tailor the way the system interacts with you to suit your personal
preferences, but do not effect the actual performance of the system
in any substantive way.
• The Setup Menu is normally used only by the installer at the time
of the initial system setup. Many of the items in this menu have
significant impact on the actual performance and functionality of
the system, and should be changed only by those who have taken
the time to learn the way the system works. (Reading this manual
should do the trick.)
• The Custom Menu is also used by your installer to customize your
system even further. Whereas every system must be properly setup
using the Setup Menu, the items in the Custom Menu are more
rarely needed—primarily in systems that employ home automation.
Once again, the items contained within this menu should be used
and/or changed only by those who have taken the time to learn
the way the system works (which you can do by reading this
manual thoroughly, if you wish).
• The About… menu describes the various parts of the operating
