REMOTE CONTROL FUNCTIONS

Test Tone: Press this button to activate the test tone for manual output-level calibration.

TV/Video/Video Off: This button has no effect on the receiver, but is used to switch video inputs on some video source components.

When the DVD player has been selected (by pressing the DVD Input Selector), pressing this button disables the DVD 38’s video output to avoid “burning in” menus or still images on sensitive video displays. This feature is particularly useful when listening to CDs or other audio-only presentations.

Sleep/Audio Select Button: Press this button to activate the sleep timer, which shuts off the receiver after a programmed period of up to 90 minutes.

When the DVD player has been selected, this button may be used to select another audio format or language, if one is available on the disc.

Volume Controls: Press these buttons to raise or lower the volume, which will be shown in decibels (dB) in the Message Display.

DSP Surround/Title: Press this button to select a DSP Surround mode (Hall 1, Hall 2, Theater).

When the DVD player has been selected, this button serves the Title function. When a DVD is playing, press this button to go back to the main title menu for the disc. If you are playing a DVD-Audio disc that contains other formats the DVD 38 is capable of playing, such as linear PCM or Dolby® Digital 5.1, pressing this button may enable you to switch playback from one audio format to another.

On-Screen Display (OSD)/Disc Info: Press this button to activate the AVR 146’s on-screen menu system.

When the DVD player has been selected, this button serves the Disc Info function. Press it once to access the Player Information menu for information on the current disc and the playback mode settings. This function is different from the Disc Menu and DVD Setup functions.

HD Mode: This button has no effect on the AVR, but when the DVD player has been selected, this button serves the HD Mode function, which is available when the DVD 38’s HDMIoutput is used. Pressing this button enables you to select a lower resolution than the maximum your video display is capable of handling, as determined by the “handshake” procedure between the DVD 38 and AVR 146 and your video display. See the AVR 146 and DVD 38 owner’s manuals for more information on HDMI and the HD Mode Selector.

Channel Level/Disc Menu: Press this button to set the output levels for each channel so that all speakers sound equally loud at the listening position. Usually this is done while playing an audio selection, such as a favorite CD, after you have calibrated the levels using EzSet.

When the DVD player has been selected, this button serves the Disc Menu function. While a disc is playing, press this button to view the disc’s menu. This function is different from the Disc Info and DVD Setup functions.

Speaker Setup/DVD Setup: Press this button to configure speaker sizes, that is, the frequency-range capability of each speaker.

Usually this is done using the on-screen menu system, as described in the Initial Setup section of the AVR 146 owner’s guide.

When the DVD player has been selected, this button serves the DVD Setup function. Press it to use the DVD 38’s on-screen menu system to adjust the player’s configuration settings. This function is different from the Disc Info and Disc Menu functions.

Navigation and Set/Enter Buttons: These buttons are used together to make selections within the AVR 146’s or DVD 38’s on-screen menu system, or when accessing the AVR functions of the four buttons surrounding this area of the remote – Channel Level, Speaker Setup, Digital Input or Delay.

Digital Input Select/Drawer Open/Close: Press this button to select the specific digital audio input (or analog audio input) you used for the current source.

When the DVD player has been selected, this button is used to open or close the disc drawer.

Delay/DVD Status: Press this button to set delay times that compensate for placing the speakers at different distances from the listening position, or to resolve a “lip sync” issue that may be caused by digital video processing. This may also be done using the on-screen menu system, as described in the Initial Setup section of the AVR 146 owner’s guide.

When the DVD player has been selected, this button serves the DVD Status function. Press it while a DVD is playing to view the on-screen Status Bar, which will display the current title and chapter, the Play Mode icon and the elapsed time, in addition to a “temperature bar” display of the time elapsed. The Status Bar may be navigated as described in the DVD 38 manual.

Numeric Keys: Use these buttons to enter radio station frequencies or to select station presets. Press the Direct Button before entering the station frequency. In DVD mode, these buttons serve a variety of functions, including password entry and chapter/track selection. See the DVD 38 owner’s manual for more information.

Tuning Mode/ Zoom: When listening to AM or FM radio, this button toggles between Manual (one frequency step at a time) and Automatic (seeks frequencies with acceptable signal strength) Tuning modes. It also toggles between Stereo and Mono modes when an FM station is tuned.

When the DVD player has been selected, this button performs the Zoom function. Press it to zoom in on a DVD, VCD or JPEG image. The image may be enlarged by a factor of x2, x3, x4 or x5. Once the on-screen indication of the zoom ratio disappears from the screen, you may use the Navigation Buttons to explore the picture.

Memory/Playlist: After you have tuned a particular radio station, press this button, then a Numeric Key, to save that station as a radio preset.

When the DVD player has been selected, this button performs the Playlist function, which enables you to change the order in which tracks or chapters are played.
