DVD. Note that once an input is selected, all set- tings for the Digital Input, Speaker Configuration and Surround Mode will ”attach” themselves to that input and be stored in a non-volatile memo- ry. This means that once made, the selection of an input will automatically recall those settings. For that reason, the procedures described below must be repeated for each input source so that you have the opportunity to custom tailor each source to your specific listening requirements. However, once made they need not be changed again unless you need to alter a setting.

When using the full-OSD system to make the setup adjustments, press the OSD button L once so that the MASTER MENU (Figure 1) appears. Note that the ➞ cursor will be next to the IN/OUT SETUP line. Press the Set but- ton Fto enter the menu and the IN/OUT SETUP menu (Figure 2) will appear on the screen. Press the ‹/› buttons Euntil the desired input name appears in the highlighted video, as well as being indicated in the front panel Input Indicators ˆ. If the input will use the standard left/right analog inputs, no further adjustment is needed (except with DVD).

When you are scrolling through the list of avail- able inputs, it is possible that you hear a slight click from time to time. This is normal, as it is caused by the relay that is used to switch between the two Component Video Inputs.

Press the button either way until the first letter of the desired name appears. If you wish to enter a blank space as the first character, press the › Navigation Button E.

When the desired character appears, press the › Navigation Button Eand repeat the process for the next letter, and continue until the desired name is entered, up to a maximum of fourteen characters.

Press the Set Button Fto enter the input name into the system memory and to proceed with the configuration process.

If your system includes any sources that are equipped with Y/Pr/Pb component video outputs, the AVR is able to switch them to send the proper signals to your video display. Each of the three

Component Video Inputs may be assigned to any source for added system flexibili- ty. The default setting is for the Component DVD Jacks to be assigned to the DVD and 6/8-Channel Direct Inputs, with the Component Video 1 Jacks assigned to the other inputs. If your system does not include component video at this time, or if you do not need to change these defaults, press the ¤ Navigation Button E to go to the next setting.

To change the Component Video assignment, first make certain that the ➞ cursor is pointing to the COMPONENT IN line on the menu screen, and then press the ‹/› Navigation Button E until you see the desired input in the highlighted video. The clicking noise that you will hear when the component video inputs is switched is nor- mal, due to the relay used to ensure proper isola- tion between the three inputs.

is in use. The AVR 435’s Auto Polling feature allows you to avoid losing the audio feed when this happens by permitting both analog and digi- tal connections to the same source on the AVR. Digital audio is the default, and the unit will auto- matically switch to the analog audio if the digital audio stream stops.

In cases where only a digital source is used, you may wish to disable the Auto Polling feature to prevent the AVR from trying to “find” an analog source when the digital source is paused. To turn Auto Polling off for any input, please refer to the explanations on page 42.

The AVR 435 uses high-quality video decoding circuitry that makes it possible to convert compo- nent inputs to an S-video or composite video out- put when a receiver that is capable of displaying a component signal is not available.

When all needed adjustments have been made, press the ¤ Navigation Button Euntil the

➔cursor is next to BACK TO MASTER MENU to continue with the system configura- tion.

Audio Setup

This menu allows you to configure the tone con- trols and to turn the upsampling on or off. If you do not wish to change any of those settings at this time, proceed to the next menu screen. However, to make configuration changes to those parameters, make certain that the MASTER MENU is on the screen with the ➞ cursor point- ing to the AUDIO SETUP line, and press the Set Button F. The AUDIO SETUP menu (Figure 3) will appear.
