Model 1070 Operation

Lip-Synch Delay

Because video is more data-intensive than audio, processing video takes longer. As a result, sometimes the video will lag behind the audio, causing a lip sync error. The problem may vary with each source device. In particular, digital TV tuners (or the stations they receive) seem to cause lip sync problems more than do DVD players. The Model 1070 lets you delay the audio to fix this problem. It also lets you set a different lip sync delay for each input, in increments of 10 milliseconds.

You can adjust lip sync delay for a specific video input directly from the remote or from the Input Configuration Menu (see page 28). Lip sync delay is not available for audio-only inputs.

To set lip sync delay from the remote:

1.Press the SYNC button on the remote.

The current Lip Sync delay for the input in use will appear on the bottom line of the front panel display and the on screen message (unless you have selected OSD: OFF in the Input Configuration menu).

2.Press the or buttons on the remote to adjust the amount of delay being applied.

Watching a close-up of an actors’ lips while carefully listening to their dialogue is the best way to set the proper amount of lip sync delay.

If you hear dialog before you see lips moving, increase the delay time. If you see lips moving before you hear dialog, decrease the delay time.

3.Press SET to choose the new lip sync setting.

Adjusting Tone Controls

You can adjust the bass and treble for a specific input directly from the remote or from the Input Configuration Menu (see page 28). The maximum boost or cut is ±6dB.

To adjust tone controls:

1.Press the TONE button on the front panel or remote.

The current setting for Treble boost or cut will appear in the lower line of the front panel and on screen display (unless you have selected OSD: OFF in the Input Configuration menu.)

2.Press the or buttons on the front panel or remote to increase the boost or cut of the Treble as desired.

The input choices for both Bass and Treble appear as follows as you scroll through them:

-6db-5db-4db-3db-2db-1db0dB1db2db3db4db5db6db

3.When the desired boost or cut is set, press the Tone button again to toggle from Treble to Bass.

4.Press the or buttons on the front panel or remote to increase the boost or cut of the Bass as desired.

5.Press the SET button on the front panel or remote when you are finished with the tone control adjustments.

Using the AM/FM Tuner

The Model 1070 incorporates an AM/FM/FM stereo tuner with 30 station- memory presets. You can mix AM and FM presets as you wish. Stations can also be tuned manually. To use the tuner, you must connect antennas to the AM and FM antenna terminals on the back of the unit (see page 20).

To select the AM/FM tuner as your source:

nPress AM/FM on the remote or TUNER on the front panel.

The band and frequency will appear on the bottom line of the front panel display and in the on-screen messages (unless you have selected OSD: OFF in the Input Configuration menu).

To change the frequency (station) manually:

nPress CHANNEL UP or CHANNEL DOWN on the remote control, or the or buttons on the front panel.

The band and frequency will appear on the bottom line of the front panel and on-screen display (unless you have selected OSD: OFF in the Input Configuration menu.)

To scan for the next frequency (station) automatically:

nPress CHANNEL UP or CHANNEL DOWN on the remote control, or the or buttons on the front panel. Hold the button down for one second, then release it.

The tuner will automatically scan up or down to the next active fre- quency. The band and frequency will appear on the bottom line of the front panel and on-screen display (unless you have selected OSD: OFF in the Input Configuration menu.)

To enter a frequency (station) directly:

1.Press DIRECT on the remote.

The current frequency will go blank on the bottom line of the front panel and on-screen displays.

2.Use the 10-key numerical keypad on the remote to enter the desired frequency.

For example, to enter 89.3 FM, simply punch in 0893.

3.Press SET on the remote.

To change the band (AM or FM):

nPress AM/FM on the remote or TUNER on the front panel.

The band and frequency will appear on the bottom line of the front panel and on-screen display (unless you have selected OSD: OFF in the Input Configuration menu.)

To change the FM tune mode (mono or stereo):

nPress TUNE MODE on the remote or the front panel to select the desired tuner mode.

STEREO will tune stereo signals.

MONO will tune either mono or stereo signals. When a station’s signal is weak in the STEREO mode, selecting mono will often provide a signal that is more acceptable by switching to the mono sound mode.
