The SLEEP buttons enables you to set the DTR-7.1 to turn off automatically after a specified time period. If you press it once, the DTR-7.1 will turn off after 90 minutes. Each time it is pressed thereafter, the remaining time until the DTR-7.1 turns off decreases by 10 minutes. While, the sleep function is enabled, you can press the SLEEP button to see how much time is left. To cancel the sleep function, press the SLEEP button when the time displayed is less than 10 minutes.

DISPLAY: Changes the display.

Same as the DISPLAY button on front panel of the DTR- 7.1.

VOL : Adjusts the volume.

Notes:

The depth of the Late Night effect is determained by Dolby Digital software. Some sounds may produce no or little effect.

The Late Night function is effective only on Dolby Digital encoded software.

CH SEL: Selects a speaker for changing the speaker output level.

• See TEST button above.

DIMMER: Adjusts the display brightness.

There are three settings available: normal, dark and very dark.

LEVEL +: Increases the speaker level.

• See TEST button above.

LEVEL –:Decreases the speaker level.

• See TEST button above.

CH : Selects the tuner preset stations.

TEST: Outputs a test tone for setting speaker levels.

Use this button in conjunction with the LEVEL +/– and CH SEL buttons to calibrate the speakers levels without entering the OSD Menu. When TEST button is pressed, the test noise (pink noise) is output. Use the LEVEL +/– buttons to increase or decrease the sound level. Use the CH SEL button to change from speaker to speaker. For a more detailed explanation of how to calibrate the speaker levels, see page 32.

MUTING: Activates the mute function.

This button mutes the playback sound immediately. This can useful, for example, when you receive a telephone call while listening to music or another source. When pressed, “Muting” is displayed on the DTR-7.1. Press the MUTING button again to turn the sound back on.

AUDIO: For selecting the audio input signal. The setting changes from “AUTO” to “Multichannel” to “Analog” and back each time this button is pressed.

INPUT SELECTOR: Selects an input source.

Same as the input selector buttons on front panel of the DTR-7.1.

Re-EQ:Depending on the listening mode, you can turn the cinema re-equalization function on or off.

The re-equalization function takes the edginess or “brightness” out of your home cinema sound to compensate for the fact that sound mixed for theaters may sound too bright when played back through speakers in the home environment.

LATE NIGHT: Sets “High,” “Low,” or “Off” for the late night function.

Cinema sound has a vast dynamic range; therefore, to hear the quieter sounds such as human conversations, they must be played back at larger volumes. When this parameter is set to “High” or “Low,” the dynamic range of the sound is narrowed down to allow you to easily hear minute sounds at low volumes. This function is especially useful if you wish to play a movie at low volumes during the nighttime.
