2Select the volume level setting.1

Variable – Use this setting if you’ve connected a power amplifier in the sub room (this receiver is simply being used as a pre-amp) and you will be using this receiver’s controls to adjust the volume.

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. (This setting is not available if the surround back system setting is set to Multi Room & Source.)

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 – Default setting.

Setting 2 – Use this setting if the IR receiver you’re using doesn’t seem to work after selecting Setting 1.2

4When you're finished, press RETURN.

You will return to the Other Setup menu.

2Select the ‘PDP Volume Control’ setting you want.

OFF – The receiver does not control the volume of the plasma display.

ON – When the receiver is switched to one of the inputs that use the plasma display (DVD/LD, for example), the volume on the plasma display is muted so only sound from the receiver is heard.

3Assign any input source connected to the plasma display to the corresponding input number.

This matches the receiver’s input source with a numbered video input on the plasma display. For example, assign DVD/LD to input-2if you have connected the your DVD video output to video input 2 on the plasma display.

The Monitor Out Connect should be set to the input that you’ve used to connect this receiver to your plasma display.
