The Input Setup menu

You only need to make settings in the Input Setup menu if you didn’t hook up your digital equipment according to the default settings (see Input function default and possible settings below). In this case, you need to tell the receiver what equipment is hooked up to which terminal so the buttons on the remote control correspond to the components you’ve connected.

4Select the input function that you want to set up. The default names correspond with the names next to the terminals on the rear panel (such as DVD/LD or VIDEO/ GAME 1) which, in turn, correspond with the names on the remote control.

inputs on the back of the receiver.

• If you change the setting to an input that has been

previously assigned to another function (for example,

TV) then the setting for that function will

automatically be switched off.

• If your component is connected via a component

video cable to an input terminal other than the

default, you must tell the receiver which input

terminal your component is connected to, or else you

may see the S-video or composite video signals

instead of the component video signals.1

6 When you’re finished, select ‘Next’ to continue to

the next screen.

The second screen of the Input setup has three optional

settings:

• Input Name – You can choose to rename the input

function for easier identification. Select Rename to

do so, or Default to return to the system default.

• 12V Trigger 1 / 2 – After connecting a component to

one of the 12 volt triggers (see Switching components

on and off using the 12 volt trigger on page 61), select

MAIN, ZONE 2, ZONE 3 or OFF for the corresponding

trigger setting to switch it on automatically along

with the (main or sub) zone specified.

• PDP In (SR+) – To control certain functions on this

receiver from a plasma display, select the display

input to which you’ve connected the receiver.2

Note

1For high-definition video (using component video connections), or when digital video conversion is switched off (in Setting the Video options on page 72), you must connect your TV to this receiver using the same type of video cable as you used to connect your video component.

2You will have to make an SR+ cable connection from a CONTROL OUT jack on the display to the CONTROL IN jack on this receiver (opposite from the setup in Using this receiver with a Pioneer plasma display on page 62). Note that to control this receiver using the remote, you will have to point it at the plasma display’s remote sensor after making this connection.
