Listening Mode Preset, Charge Mode, 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 also be produced.

`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 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 is stored individually for each input selector.

•The setting will be reset to “Off” when you change the setting in “Audio Selector” (➔ page 57).

Charge Mode

■Charge Mode

`Auto:

Power feeding is interrupted when your iPod/iPhone is fully charged.

`On:

Power feeding continues even if your iPod/iPhone is fully charged.

`Off:

Your iPod/iPhone is not charged.

You can specify how the power is fed to your iPod/iPhone when the AV receiver is in standby mode.

Note

•This setting cannot be selected when:

–the UP-A1 Dock with docked iPod/iPhone is not connected to the AV receiver, or

–the docked iPod/iPhone model is not supported.

•When the “Charge Mode” setting is set to “On”, or to “Auto” with your iPod/iPhone recharging, the SLEEP indicator is dimly lit in standby mode. In such conditions, the power consumption of the AV receiver slightly increases. With “Auto”, when the iPod/iPhone becomes fully charged, the SLEEP indicator goes off and the power consumption in standby mode is reduced.

Listening Mode Preset

You can assign a default listening mode to each input source that will be selected automatically when you select each input source. For example, you can set the default listening mode to be used with Dolby Digital input signals. You can select other listening modes during playback, but the mode specified here will be resumed once the AV receiver has been set to standby.
