FUNCTION RENAME

Use the FUNCTION RENAME capability to rename the display on the receiver for different functions (DVD, etc.). For example, you could rename DVD/LD as DVR-7000. For this setup in particular using the controls on the front panel is more convenient than using the remote control. Use the MULTI JOG dial instead of the 5∞ buttons and use the ENTER button on the front panel.
