being trimmed to a program source rather than the test tone, as shown on page 36.

When all channels have an equal volume level, the adjustment is complete. To exit this menu, press the ⁄/¤ Buttons n until the on-screen › cursor is next to the BACK TO MASTER MENU line, and then press the Set Button p to return to the MASTER MENU.

The output levels may also be adjusted at any time using the remote control and semi-OSD system. To adjust the output levels in this fashion, press the Test Button i. As soon as the button is pressed, the test tone will begin to circu- late as indicated earlier. The correct channel from which the test noise should be heard will be shown in the lower third of the video screen and in the Lower Display Line B. While the test noise is circulating, the proper channel position will also be indicated in the Speaker/ Channel Input Indicators E by a blinking letter within the correct channel.

To adjust the output level, press the ⁄/¤ Buttons n until the desired level is shown in the display or on- screen. Once the buttons are released, the test noise will begin to circulate again in five seconds.

When all channels have the same output level, press the Test Button i again to complete the process.

NOTE: Output level adjustment is not available for the VMAx or Surround Off modes.

Additional Input Adjustments

After one input has been adjusted for Surround mode, digital input (if any), speaker type, and output levels, go back to the INPUT SETUP line on the MASTER MENU (Figure 1) and enter the settings for each input that you will use. In most cases, only the digital input and surround mode will be different from one input to the next, while the speaker type, crossover frequency, Night mode and output level settings will usually be the same and may be quickly entered by entering the same data used for the first input.

When all settings and adjustments have been made, press the OSD Button v to return to normal operation of the AVR.

Once the settings outlined on the previ- ous pages have been made, the AVR580 is ready for operation. While there are some additional settings to be made, these are best done after you have had an opportunity to listen to a variety of sources and different kinds of program material. These advanced settings are described on pages 37–38 of this manual. In addition, any of the settings made in the initial configuration of the unit may be changed at any time. As you add new or different sources or speakers, or if you wish to change a setting to better reflect your listening taste, simply follow the instructions for changing the settings for that parameter as shown in this section.

Having completed the setup and configu- ration process for your AVR580, you are about to experience the finest in music and home theater listening. Enjoy!
