6-Channel Direct Input

The AVR 510 is equipped for future expansion through the use of optional, external adapters for formats that the AVR 510 may not be capa- ble of processing. When an adapter is connected to the 6-Channel Direct Input ª, you may select it by pressing the 6-Ch Direct Input Selector 37 . The 6-Channel Direct Input may also be selected by pressing the Input Source Selector button ! on the front panel until the words 6 CH DIRECT appear in the Main Information Display Y, and a green LED lights next to 6 CH in the Input Indicators .

Note that when the 6-Channel Direct Input is in use, you may not select a surround mode, as the external decoder determines the processing in use. In addition, there is no signal at the record outputs or bass management when the 6-Channel Direct Input is in use.

Memory Backup

This product is equipped with a memory backup system that preserves the system configuration information and tuner presets if the unit is acci- dentally unplugged or subjected to a power outage. This memory will last for approximately two weeks, after which time all information must be reentered.
