04Basic Setup
5Wait for the test tones to finish, then confirm the speaker configuration in the GUI screen.
A progress report is displayed
receiver outputs test tones to determine the speakers
present in your setup. Try to be as quiet as possible while it’s doing this.1
If no operations are performed for 10 seconds while the speaker configuration check screen is being displayed, the Auto MCACC Setup will resume automatically. In this case, you don’t need to select ‘OK’ and press ENTER in step 6.
•With error messages (such as Too much ambient noise! or Check microphone.) select RETRY after checking for ambient noise (see Problems when using the Auto MCACC Setup below) and verifying the mic connection. If there doesn’t seem to be a problem, you can simply select GO NEXT and continue.
6Make sure ‘OK’ is selected, then press ENTER. A progress report is displayed
Again, try to be as quiet as possible while this is happening. It may take 3 to 10 minutes.
7The Auto MCACC Setup procedure is completed and the Home Menu menu reappears automatically.3
Be sure to disconnect the microphone from this receiver upon completion of the Auto MCACC Setup.
The settings made in the Auto MCACC Setup should give you excellent surround sound from your system, but it is also possible to adjust these settings manually using The Advanced MCACC menu on page 71 or The system and the other setup on page 84.4

The configuration shown
•If you see an ERR message (or the speaker
configuration displayed isn’t correct), there may be a problem with the speaker connection.
If selecting RETRY doesn’t work, turn off the power
and check the speaker connections. If there doesn’t seem to be a problem, you can simply use / to select the speaker and / to change the setting and continue.
•If Reverse Phase is displayed, the speaker’s wiring

–If the connections were wrong, turn off the power, disconnect the power cord, then reconnect properly. After this, perform the Full Auto MCACC procedure again.
–If the connections were right, select GO NEXT and continue.
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.

Note
1Do not adjust the volume during the test tones. This may result in incorrect speaker settings.
2If the speaker is not pointed to the microphone (listening position) or when using speakers that affect the phase (dipole speakers, reflective speakers, etc.), Reverse Phase may be displayed even if the speakers are properly connected.
3You can also choose to view the settings from the MCACC Data Check screen. See Checking MCACC Data on page 80 for more on this.
4• Depending on the characteristics of your room, sometimes identical speakers with cone sizes of around 12 cm will end up with different size settings. You can correct the setting manually using the Manual speaker setup on page 84.
•The subwoofer distance setting may be farther than the actual distance from the listening position. This setting should be accurate (taking delay and room characteristics into account) and generally does not need to be changed.
•If Auto MCACC Setup measurement results are incorrect due to the interaction of the speakers and viewing environment, we recommend adjusting the settings manually.
