18 SYSTEM CONFIGURATION
When using the full-OSD system to make the setup
adjustments
, press the
OSD Button v once so that
the
MASTER MENU (Figure 1) appears. The ›
cursor will be next to the INPUT SETUP line.
Press the
Set Button p to enter the menu and the
INPUT
SETUP
menu (Figure 2) will appear on
the screen. Press the
‹
/
›
Buttons o until the
desired input name appears in the highlighted video,
as well as being indicated in the front-panel
Input
Indica
tors
ı.
If the input will use the standard
left/right analog inputs
, no further adjustment
is needed.
Figure 2
If you wish to associate one of the digital inputs with
the selected input source, press the
¤
Button n
on the remote while the INPUT SETUP menu
(Figure 2) is on the screen, and the on-screen cursor
will drop down to the
DIGITAL IN line. Press
the
‹
/
›
Buttons o until the name of the desired
digital input appears. To return to the analog input,
press the buttons until the word
ANALOG appears.
When the correct input source appears, press the
¤
Button n once so that the › cursor appears next
to
BACK TO MASTER MENU, and press the
Set Button p.
To change the digital input at any time using the dis-
crete function buttons and the semi-OSD system,
press the
Digital Select Button q on the remote.
Within 5 seconds, make your input selection using the
⁄
/
¤
Buttons n until the desired digital or analog
input is shown in the
Upper Display Line ˜ and in
the lower line of the on-screen display. Press the
Set
Button
p to enter the new digital input assignment.
Some digital video input sources, such as a cable box
or HDTV set-top, may change between analog and
digital outputs, depending on which channel is in use.
The AVR 335’s Auto Polling feature allows you to
avoid losing the audio feed when this happens by per
-
mitting both analog and digital connections to the
same source on the AVR. Digital audio is the default,
and the unit will automatically switch to the analog
audio if the digital audio stream stops
.
In cases where only a digital source is used,
you may
wish to disable the Auto Polling feature to prevent the
AVR from trying to “find” an analog source when the
digital source is paused.
To turn the Auto Polling off for
any input,
first make certain that the
› cursor is point
-
ing to the
AUTO POLL line on the menu screen.
Next, press the
‹/› Navigation Buttons o so
that
OFF appears. Repeat the procedure so that
ON appears to restore the
Auto Polling feature.
When all needed adjustments have been made, press
the
¤
Button n until the › cursor is next to
BACK TO MASTER MENU to continue with
the system configuration.
Surround Setup
T
he next step is to set the surround mode you wish
to use with the input that was previously selected in
the
INPUT
SETUP
menu.
Since surround
modes are a matter of personal taste, feel free to
select any mode you wish – you may change it later.
However, to make it easier to establish the initial
parameters for the AVR 335, it is best to select Dolby
Pro Logic II or Logic 7 for most analog inputs and
Dolby Digital for inputs connected to digital sources. In
the case of inputs such as a CD Player, Tape Deck or
Tuner, you may wish to set the mode to Stereo
(“Surround off”) as they are not typically used with
multichannel program material, and it is unlikely that
sur
round-encoded material will be used. Alternatively,
the
Logic 7 Music mode is a good choice for stereo-
only source material. See page 29 for more informa-
tion on available surround modes.
When selecting surround modes for digital program
material, the AVR 335 will always examine the data
stream and automatically select Dolby Digital or DTS
as applicable.
It is easiest to complete the surround setup using the
full-OSD on-screen menus. From the
MASTER
MENU (Figure 1), press the
⁄
/
¤
Buttons n
until the › cursor is next to the SURROUND
SELECT
line. Press the Set Button p until the
SURROUND SELECTmenu (Figure 3) is on
the screen.
Figure 3
Each of the option lines on this menu (Figure 3)
selects the surround mode category, and within each
of those categories there will be a choice of the
specific mode options. The choice of modes will
var
y according to the speaker configuration in your
system.
When the
SURR
BACK
line of the
SPEAKER SETUP menu (Figure 9) is set to
NONE the AVR 335 will be configured for 5.1-
channel operation, and only the modes appropriate to
a five-speaker system will appear
. When the
SURR
BACK
line of the SPEAKER SETUP menu
(Figure 9) is set to
SMALL or LARGE the
AVR 335 will be configured for 6.1/7.1-channel oper-
ation,
and additional modes such as Dolby Digital EX
and DTS-ES will appear
, as they are only available
when seven main speakers are present. In addition,
some of the modes available in the AVR 335 will
not appear unless a digital source is selected and is
playing the correct bitstream. Remember that when
6.1-channel program material is playing, the same
information will be heard through both of the surround
back speakers.
To select the mode that will be used as the initial
default for an input, first press the
⁄
/
¤
Buttons
n until the on-screen cursor is next to the desired
mode’s master category name, such as
DOLBY,
DTS, DSP (SURR) or VMAX. Next, press
the
Set Button p to view the submenu. Press the
‹
/
›
Buttons o to scroll through the available
choices, and then press the
¤
Button n so that
the cursor is next to
BACK TO MASTER
MENU
to continue the setup process.
The following few paragraphs detail the instructions
needed for modes with multiple choices.
On the
DOLBY menu (Figure 4), choices include
Dolby Digital, Dolby Pro Logic II-Music, Dolby Pro
Logic II-Movie, Dolby Pro Logic, Dolby 3 Stereo, Dolby
Pro Logic IIx (Movie and Music) and Dolby Virtual
Speaker Reference or Wide. The Dolby Digital EX and
Dolby Pro Logic IIx modes are only available when the
system is set for 6.1/7.1 operation by configuring the
Surround Back speakers to
“Small”
or
“Large”
as
described on page 20 or 23. When a disc is playing
that contains a special “flag” signal in the digital audio
data stream,
the EX mode will be selected automati-
cally. It may also be selected using this menu or
through the front-panel or remote controls
,
as shown
on page 28. A complete explanation of these modes
is found on page 29.
When a Dolby Surround mode is selected, a menu will
be shown,
as detailed in Figure 4.
The choices on this
menu include the selection of the actual surround
mode, the selection of rear channel post-processing
when the system is configured for 7.1 operation,
adjustments to the Night Mode when available with
a Dolby Digital soundtrack,
the adjustment of special
parameters available when either Dolby Pro Logic II
Music or Dolby Pro Logic IIx Music is selected as
