Basic Operation

The PXI-H990 is operated from the head unit with which it is used.

These operating instructions describe operation from both the DVI-9990 head unit and from the RUE-4196 remote control unit included with the head unit. When operating the main unit with the remote control supplied with the head unit, change the selector switch on the rear side of remote control to the “H/U” side.

Remote control icon Indicates operations performed with the remote control supplied with the head unit (only when connected to

a monitor, sold separately).

Adjusting the acoustic image (BI PHANTOM)

To achieve sound with a sense of presence, the center speaker must be placed directly in front of the driver’s seat and the passenger’s seat. With this function, the center channel information is distributed to the left and right speakers. This creates an acoustic image simulating a center speaker directly in front of the listener. (This only has an effect when “DOLBY PL II MOVIE” or “Neo:6 CINEMA” is selected at “PCM Output Settings” (page 80). The audio source must be playing back Dolby Digital or DTS signals with center channel information.)

•Avoid stopping, pausing, switching the disc, cueing, fast-forwarding or switching the audio channel of the player while making this adjustment.

1 Press and hold F • SETUP for at least 3 seconds.

2Press 1 () or 5 (), select “M.M.Manager

[Multi Media Manager]”, then press 2 (ENT).
