Remote Control Settings

Remote ID

`1, 2, or 3

When several Onkyo components are used in the same room, their remote ID codes may overlap. To differenti- ate the AV receiver from the other components, you can change its remote ID from “1”, to “2” or “3”.

Note

If you do change the AV receiver’s remote ID, be sure to change the remote controller to the same ID (see below), otherwise, you won’t be able to control it with the remote controller.

Changing the Remote Controller’s ID

1 While holding down RECEIVER, press and hold down SETUP until the remote indicator lights (about 3 seconds) (34).

2 Use the number buttons to enter ID 1, 2, or 3.

The remote indicator flashes twice.

FM/AM Frequency Setup Settings

For FM/AM tuning to work properly, you must specify the FM/AM frequency step used in your area. Note that when this setting is changed, all radio presets will be deleted.

`200k/10kHz:

Select if 200k/10kHz steps are used in your area.

`50k/9kHz:

Select if 50k/9kHz steps are used in your area.

HDMI Setup

Menu

HDMI Setup

Audio TV OUT

`Off:

HDMI audio is not output.

`On:

HDMI audio is output.

This preference determines whether audio received at the HDMI IN is output by the HDMI OUT. You may want to turn this preference on if your TV is connected to the HDMI OUT and you want to listen to the audio from a component that’s connected to an HDMI IN, through your TV’s speakers. Normally, this should be set to “Off”.

Note

If “On” is selected and the signal can be output by the TV, the AV receiver will output no sound through its speakers.

If “On” is selected, “TV Sp On” appears on the display by pressing DISPLAY.

When “TV Control” is set to “On”, this setting is fixed to “Auto”.

With some TVs and input signals, no sound may be output even when this setting is set to “On”.

When the “Audio TV OUT” setting is set to “On”, or “TV Con- trol” is set to “On” and you’re listening through your TV’s speakers (15), if you turn up the AV receiver’s volume con- trol, the sound will be output by the AV receiver’s front left and right speakers. To stop the AV receiver’s speakers producing sound, change the settings, change your TV’s settings, or turn down the AV receiver’s volume.

LipSync

`Disable:

HDMI lip sync disabled.

`Enable:

HDMI lip sync enabled.

The AV receiver can be set to automatically correct any delay between the video and the audio, based on the data from the connected monitor.

Note

This function works only if your HDMI-compatible TV supports HDMI Lip Sync.

You can check the amount of delay being applied by the HDMI Lip Sync function on the A/V Sync screen.
