Operation

To access the settings for selecting an EQ Design preset, press the Devices Button 4 on the TC 30 followed by the Screen Button 6 at the top of the row of buttons on the left side of the TC 30, to the left of AV RECEIVER on the LCD screen. After the list of options displayed in the LCD Screen 7 changes, press the Page Left/Right Button 8 to go to the second page of AV RECEIVER settings. When that page of settings appears, you may do the following:

Press the Screen Button 6 to the left of EQ ON/OFF to bring the EQ settings into the signal path, or to put the system in the Bypass mode, which removes the equalization filters.

Press the Screen Button 6 to the left of EQ PRESETS to cycle through the EQ Designs stored in each of the three memory positions, as shown in the instructions on page 38.

Subwoofer Control

If you have a 7.2 system with two subwoofers present, you may occasionally wish to turn one of the subwoofers off to accommodate your preferences with a particular movie or musical program, or to demonstrate the change made by using one subwoofer or two. To do this, press the Devices Button 4 on the TC 30 followed by the Screen Button 6 at the top of the row of buttons on the left side of the TC 30, to the left of AV RECEIVER on the LCD screen. After the list of options displayed on the LCD Screen

7changes, press the / 7 to go to the second page of AV RECEIVER settings. When that page of settings appears, press the Screen Button 6 to the left of SUB 2 ON/OFF to turn the feed to the second subwoofer on or off.

Dim Function

Since the AVR will often be used when movies or other video programming is viewed under low- light conditions, you may wish to lower the brightness of the front-panel displays and indica- tors so that they do not distract from the video presentation. You may dim the displays using the menu system, as shown on page 53, or you may control the brightness directly from the remote.

Press the Devices Button 4 on the TC 30 remote and then press the Screen Button 6 next to AV RECEIVER. Next, press the LCD Screen 7 and after the choices in the LCD Screen 7 change, press the Screen Button

6next to DIM. Note that when the displays are dimmed or turned off, the blue lighting around the Standby/On Switch 3 will continue to stay lit as a reminder that the AVR is still turned on.

The accent lighting for the Volume Control ı will remain at its normal level, rather than dim when the panel displays are at half brightness.

Note that all changes to the front-panel bright- ness level are temporary; the displays will return to full brightness after the AVR is turned off and then on again. To return the displays to full- brightness without turning the unit off, return the TC 30 to the AVR Device screen, and press the Screen Button 6 next to DIM as needed until the displays are on.

In addition to lowering the brightness of the dis- plays or turning them off completely, you may wish to have them appear whenever a button on the remote or front panel is pushed, and then gradually fade out after a set time period. You may do this by making the appropriate settings in the VFD FADE TIME OUT line of the ADVANCED SELECT menu, as shown on page 41.

Memory Backup

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