FIXED – Use this setting if you’ve connected a fully integrated amplifier (such as another Pioneer VSX receiver) in the sub room and want to use that receiver’s volume controls.

CAUTION: If the "FIXED" position is chosen, the volume will be loud.

With the FIXED setting, the source is sent from this receiver at maximum volume, so make sure the volume is quite low in the sub room at first and then experiment to find the correct level.

3Select the type of IR receiver you’re using.

Setting 1 – Use this setting for all (other) IR receivers.

Setting 2 – Use this setting if the IR receiver you’re using doesn’t seem to work after selecting Setting 1.

4When you're finished, select ‘Exit’ and press

ENTER.

You will return to the System Setup menu.

Note

Some IR receivers may not work with this receiver. Check with your audio dealer for more information.
