Setting the Incoming Digital Signal (Fixed Mode)

Fixed Mode

`Off:

The format is detected automatically. If no digital input signal is present, the corresponding analog input is used instead.

`PCM:

Only 2-channel PCM format input signals will be heard. If the input signal is not PCM, the PCM indicator will flash and noise may also be produced.

`DTS:

Only DTS (but not DTS-HD) format input signals will be heard. If the input signal is not DTS, the DTS indicator will flash and there will be no sound.

When “HDMI”, “COAXIAL” or “OPTICAL” is selected in the “Audio Selector” setting, you can then specify the signal type in “Fixed Mode”.

Normally, the AV receiver detects the signal format automatically. However, if you experience either of the following issues when playing PCM or DTS material, you can manually set the signal format to PCM or DTS.

If the beginnings of tracks from a PCM source are cut off, try setting the format to PCM.

If noise is produced when fast forwarding or reversing a DTS CD, try setting the format to DTS.

Note

The setting will be reset to “Off” when you change the setting in the “Audio Selector” (page 40).
