INITIAL SETUP
The first line indicates that the receiver is currently set to the tuner source. In fact, you may hear static if the tuner is set to an unused frequency. You will not be able to make any changes to the tuner, other than selecting a component video input or adjusting the tone controls. It is not recommended that you make either of these changes for
the tuner at this time.
Press the ‹ Button to view the next source. The sources will be selected in the following order: Tape,
›Button selects the sources in the reverse order.
For each of these sources, you may adjust the following settings. At a minimum, you should make sure that sources connected to any of the component video or digital audio inputs have the correct settings. Other settings are optional, and you may adjust them at a later time when you have more experience with the AVR. Refer to the Table A4 worksheet in the appendix that you filled out during installation as you assign inputs to each source.
TITLE: You may change the display name for any source (except the tuner). Not only does this enable you to customize your system; it helps you to select the correct source device even when you have forgotten which physical connections you used.
Move the cursor down to the TITLE line and press the Set Button. A block cursor will blink. See Figure 52.
AUDIO IN: By default, the analog audio inputs are assigned to all sources at the factory, with the following exceptions:

If you used a digital audio connection for another source, change this setting to assign the correct digital audio input to the source, even if you also connected the analog audio outputs of the source to the receiver. Move the cursor to this line, and press the ‹/› Buttons until the correct digital input appears.
AUTO POLL: The Auto Poll feature is used when both an analog audio and digital audio connection have been made for one source device. If for some reason no digital signal is available, the AVR 147 will switch to the analog inputs for the source. This situation can occur with some cable or satellite television broadcasts, where some channels are broadcast with digital audio and others with analog audio.
For some sources, the Auto Poll feature is unnecessary and may be undesirable. For example, if your DVD player is stopped, you may not want to use the analog audio signal or you may have decided not
to connect analog audio. Move the cursor to this line, and press the ‹/› Buttons until OFF appears, disabling the Auto Poll feature. With Auto Poll turned off, the receiver will only check for a signal at the
audio input assigned to the source.
DMP SETTING: If you select DMP/The Bridge as your source input, you will notice that the AUDIO IN line of the INPUT SETUP menu has been replaced by the option GO TO DMP SETTING. See Figure 53.

Now you may use the ⁄/¤ Buttons to scroll through the alphabet in upper and lower case, as well as numbers and a variety of punctuation marks. When you have selected the desired character, press the › Button to move to the next space. You may also press the › Button to leave a blank. Press the Set Button when you have finished spelling out the new display name for the source.
COMPONENT IN: If you connected the source to one of the two compo- nent video inputs, make sure the correct set of inputs is displayed at this line. If it isn’t, move the cursor to this line, and then press the › Button to change the setting.

Since The Bridge is connected to the AVR using a dedicated connection, it isn’t possible to select a different audio input for this source. However, there are several special settings used only with The Bridge. Selecting GO TO DMP SETTING displays the DMP SETTING menu (see Figure 54).
