Temporarily changing the speaker output levels

To change the individual speaker volumes temporarily, follow the procedure given below. Each channel can be set between –12 and +12 decibels (between –15 and +12 decibels for the subwoofer). Note that the speaker volumes will return to the original settings when the DTR-8.3 is put in the standby state.

1. Press the CH Sel button and select the desired speaker.

2.Press the + or – button to adjust the volume level.

Notes:

You cannot select a speaker if it is set to “No” or “None” in the Speaker Config Sub-menu of the Speaker Setup Menu.

To have your new speaker levels set here overwrite the settings at Setup Menu Speaker Setup Menu Level Calibration Sub-menu, press the Test button after you complete step 3 in the procedure above.

Using the sleep time (remote controller only)

The SLEEP button enables you to set the DTR-8.3 to turn off automatically after a specified time period. If you press it once, the DTR-8.3 will turn off after 90 minutes. Each time it is pressed thereafter, the remaining time until the DTR-8.3 turns off decreases by 10 minutes (i.e., from 90 to 80 minutes). While, the sleep function is enabled, you can press the SLEEP button to see how much time is left. If you now press the SLEEP button, the remaining time will be reduced down to the nearest 10 minutes. If it is pressed again, then the remaining time will be decreased by 10 minutes each time it is pressed (e.g., if SLEEP is pressed with the display reading 54 minutes, it will be reduced to 50 minutes. If it is pressed again, it will then be reduced to 40, then 30, and so on). If the SLEEP button is pressed when the time displayed is less than 10 minutes, the sleep function is cancelled.

If you are using the remote zone (Zone 2), it will turn off at the same time as the main zone. If you want to set the sleep function for Zone 2 only, set the sleep function with main zone turned on and then put the main zone into the standby state.
