Onkyo TX-NR509 Hardware, Audio Selector, Setting the Incoming Digital Signal Fixed Mode

Audio Selector

■Audio Selector

`ARC:

The audio signal from your TV tuner can be sent digitally to the HDMI OUT of the AV receiver.*1 With this selection, the TV’s audio can be automatically selected as a priority among other assignments.

`HDMI:

This can be selected when HDMI IN has been assigned as an input source. If both HDMI (HDMI IN) and digital audio inputs (COAXIAL IN or OPTICAL IN) have been assigned, HDMI input is automatically selected as a priority.

`COAXIAL:

This can be selected when COAXIAL IN has been assigned as an input source. If both coaxial and HDMI inputs have been assigned, coaxial input is automatically selected as a priority.

`OPTICAL:

This can be selected when OPTICAL IN has been assigned as an input source. If both optical and HDMI inputs have been assigned, optical input is automatically selected as a priority.

`Analog:

The AV receiver always outputs analog signals. You can set priorities of audio output when there are both digital and analog inputs.

Note

•The setting is stored individually for each input selector.

•This setting can be made only for the input source that is assigned as HDMI IN, COAXIAL IN, or OPTICAL IN. If both HDMI (HDMI IN) and digital audio inputs (COAXIAL IN or OPTICAL IN) are assigned, HDMI input will be selected as a priority by setting to “ARC” (➔ page 48). To select the digital audio input, see “Digital Audio (Digital Audio Input)”

(➔ page 40).

*1 You can select “ARC” if you select the TV/CD input selector. But you cannot select it if you’ve selected “Off” in the “Audio Return Ch” setting (➔ page 48).

Setting the Incoming Digital Signal (Fixed Mode)

■Fixed Mode

`Off:

The format is detected automatically. If no digital input signal is present, the corresponding analog input is used instead.

`PCM:

Only 2-channel PCM format input signals will be heard. If the input signal is not PCM, the PCM indicator will flash and noise may occur.

`DTS:

Only DTS (but not DTS-HD) format input signals will be heard. If the input signal is not DTS, the DTS indicator will flash and there will be no sound.

When “HDMI”, “COAXIAL” or “OPTICAL” is selected in the “Audio Selector” setting, you can then

En specify the signal type in “Fixed Mode”.

Normally, the AV receiver detects the signal format automatically. However, if you experience either of the following issues when playing PCM or DTS material, you can manually set the signal format to PCM or DTS.

•If the beginnings of tracks from a PCM source are cut off, try setting the format to PCM.

•If noise is produced when fast forwarding or reversing a DTS CD, try setting the format to DTS.

Note

•The setting will be reset to “Off” when you change the setting in “Audio Selector” (➔ page 46).
