Step 4. Connect AM and FM antennas (as shown above). (See page 13.)
Step 5. Connect source components,as shown in Figures 4 and 5, and the
Device Connection Options chart on the back of this Guide (see
pages 1314).
AUDIO connections: Right channel (red) on source to right (red)
on AVR,and left channel (white) on source to left (white) on AVR.
DIGITAL AUDIO connections, if available: Choose either coax
(
orange) to coax (orange) OR optical to optical for each device.
The Coax 1 input defaults to the DVD player, but may be reassigned.
Assign the other digital inputs and outputs as appropriate for your
equipment (see Step 7).
VIDEO connections: Choose either composite (yellow) or S-Video
(4-pin) for each video source. Connect the composite and S-Video
Monitor outputs to your Video Monitor (TV). Switch your TV set’s input
to match the type of video used for the currently selected source.
Step 6. Plug all components into AC power outlets.The outlets on the back
of the AVR230 should be used
only for low-current products,such
as CD or DVD players, and the total should not exceed 100 watts.
Basic Receiver Configuration
Step 7. Select digital inputs: If your DVD is connected to Coax 1, no adjust-
ment is needed. For any other digital-device connections, use the
On-Screen In/Out Setup menu or the front-panel Digital Select button
and the arrow buttons to select an optical or coax digital input (see
pages 17 and 25).
Step 8.
Select a surround mode: Press the Surround Mode button on the
front panel to select Dolby
®
Pro Logic
®
II – Movie. (You may select
other modes later as you become familiar with the AVR 230;see
pages 17–18 and 24–28.)
Step 9.
Configure speakers: No action is needed if you have five “small”
satellite-type speakers and a subwoofer. Otherwise,use the OSD
Speaker Setup Menu,or press the Speaker button and then the Set and
arrow buttons to select the correct speaker choices for your system
(see pages 18–20).
Step 10.
Use to set output levels: Set the Balance to 12 o’clock,
and the Volume to 15dB. Hold the remote in front of you at shoulder
level,and point it at the AVR 230. Press the SPL button for 3 seconds,
and release it when the LED flashes amber.Press “5”or “7”to indicate
the number of speakers. Hold the remote steady, and wait for the
process to be completed.In six-speaker systems, the levels for both
surround back channels will be set using the single surround back
speaker to optimize Logic 7
®
and other 7-channel processing (see
pages 21–23).
Step 11.
Your system is configured – sit back and enjoy!
