04Basic Setup

Problems when using the Auto MCACC Setup

3Select ‘System Setup’ from the HOME MENU.

If the room environment is not optimal for the Auto MCACC Setup (too much background noise, echo off the walls, obstacles blocking the speakers from the microphone) the final settings may be incorrect. Check for household appliances (air conditioner, fridge, fan, etc.), that may be affecting the environment and switch them off if necessary. If there are any instructions showing in the front panel display, please follow them.

Some older TVs may interfere with the

operation of the microphone. If this seems to be happening, switch off the TV when doing the Auto MCACC Setup.

The Input Setup menu

You only need to make settings in the Input Setup menu if you didn’t hook up your digital equipment according to the default settings (see Input function default and possible settings on page 41). In this case, you need to tell the receiver what equipment is hooked up to which terminal so the buttons on the remote control correspond to the components you’ve connected.

1Switch on the receiver and your TV. Use  RECEIVER to switch on.

2Press RECEIVER on the remote control, then press HOME MENU.

A Graphical User Interface (GUI) screen appears on your TV. Use /// and

ENTER to navigate through the screens and select menu items. Press RETURN to confirm and exit the current menu.

4Select ‘Input Setup’ from the System Setup menu.

5Select the input function that you want to set up.

The default names correspond with the names next to the terminals on the rear panel (such as DVD or VIDEO) which, in turn, correspond with the names on the remote control.

6Select the input(s) to which you’ve connected your component.

For example, if your DVD player only has an optical output, you will need to change the DVD input function’s Digital In setting from COAX-1(VSX-1019AH model)/COAX (VSX- 919AH model) (default) to the optical input you’ve connected it to.The numbering (OPT-1to 2) corresponds with the numbers beside the inputs on the back of the receiver.

If your component is connected via a component video cable to an input terminal other than the default, you must tell the receiver which input terminal your component is connected to, or else you

may see the composite video signals instead of the component video signals.1

Note

1For high-definition video (using component video connections), or when digital video conversion is switched off (in Setting the Video options on page 66), you must connect your TV to this receiver using the same type of video cable as you used to connect your video component.
