Output Level Trim Adjustment

Normal output level adjustment for the

AVR 2000 is established using the test tone, as outlined on pages 21 and 22. In some cases, however, it may be desirable to adjust the output levels using program material such as a test disc, or a selection you are familiar with. Additionally, the output level for the subwoofer and those for the Stereo and VMAx modes can only be adjust- ed using this procedure.

To adjust the output levels using program materi- al, first select the surround mode for which you want to trim the speakers (see NOTE below) by selecting the appropriate input, associated with the desired surround mode, start your program material source and set the reference volume for the front left and front right channels using the

Volume Control ( .

Once the reference level has been set, press the Channel Select button BÛand note that FRONT L LEVwill appear in the Main Information Display X. To change the level, first press the Set button EÓ, and then use the Selector buttons 5or the / ¤ buttons

Cto raise or lower the level. DO NOT use the volume control, as this will alter the reference setting.

Once the change has been made, press the Set button EÓand then press the Selector but- tons 5or the /¤ buttons Cto select the next output channel location that you wish to adjust. To adjust the subwoofer level, press the Selector buttons 5or the /¤ buttons C until WOOFER LEV appears in the Main Information Display X. (Only available if the subwoofer was selected during the speaker con- figuration, see page 18).

Press the Set button EÓwhen the name of the desired channel appears in the Main Information Display X, and follow the instructions shown above to adjust the level.

Repeat the procedure as needed until all chan- nels requiring adjustment have been set. When all adjustments have been made press the Set button EÓtwice, the AVR 2000 will return to normal operation.

NOTE: The output levels may be separately trimmed for each digital and analog surround mode. If you wish to have different trim levels for a specific mode, select that mode and then follow the instructions in the steps shown above.

Changing the levels using trim adjustment as described above will automatically change the level settings shown in the Output Adjustment (see page 21) correspondingly (and vice versa) and will remain in the AVR 2000´s memory system, even when the unit is turned off. With Stereo and Vmax modes the adjustment proce- dure described above is the only way to trim the output level (e.g. to match the Vmax level with other modes).

Display Brightness

The AVR 2000’s front panel Main Information Display Úis set at a default brightness level that is sufficient for viewing in a normally lit room. However, in some home theater installa- tions, you may wish to occasionally lower the brightness of the display, or turn it off completely.

The display brightness may be changed by press- ing and holding the Set button Óon the front for three seconds until the message in the Main Information Display Xreads VFD FULL. Within five seconds, press the front panel Selector buttons 5until the desired brightness display level is shown. At that point, press the Set button Óagain to enter the setting.

Once the desired brightness level is selected, it will remain in effect until it is changed again or until the unit is turned off.

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.
