To change the Component Video assignment, first
m
ake certain that the cursor is pointing to the
COMPONENT IN line on the menu screen;
then press the
‹/› Buttons o until you see the
desired input. When the desired component video
input has been selected, press the

to go to the next setting.
If you wish to associate one of the digital inputs with
t

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 digital input jack 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 five seconds, make your input selection using
the
⁄

¤
Buttons n until the desired digital or
analog input is shown in the
Upper Display Line P
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 340’s Auto Polling feature allows you to
avoid losing the audio feed when this happens by
automatically searching both analog and digital con-
nections for a signal.
Digital audio is the default,
and
the unit will automatically switch to analog audio if the
digital audio stream stops.
In cases where only a digital source is used, such as
for a DVD player, 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 Auto Polling off for any input, first make certain
that the
›
cursor is pointing to the AUTO POLL
line on the menu screen. Next, press the
‹
/
›
Buttons o so that OFF appears. To restore
the Auto Polling feature, repeat the procedure at
any time so that
ON appears.
When DMP has been selected as the source
input, an additional line will appear in this menu that
lets you select whether you wish to allow your iP
od to
c
ontinue charging while docked in when the
AVR 340 is turned off and placed in Standby mode.
To make your selection, press the

wish charging to continue, and the blue lighting on
The Bridge will remain lit when the AVR 340 is in
Standby mode to indicate that charging is taking
p
lace. The default setting is
N
O
,
in which the docked
iPod will not continue to charge when the AVR 340
is turned off, even though remains connected
to the AVR.
When all needed adjustments have been made, press
the

cursor is next to
BACK TO MASTER MENU to continue with
the system configuration.
Audio Setup
This menu allows you to configure the tone controls. If
you do not wish to change those settings at this time
,
proceed to the next menu screen. However, to make
configuration changes to those parameters, make cer-
tain that the
MASTER MENU (Figure 1) is on
screen with the
› cursor pointing to the AUDIO
SETUP
line, and press the Set Button p. The
AUDIO SETUP menu (Figure 3) will appear.
Figure 3
The first line controls whether or not the bass/treble
tone controls are in the signal path. The nor
mal default
is for them to be in-line, but if you wish to remove
them from the circuit for “flat” response, first make
certain that the
› cursor is pointing to the TONE
line on the menu and press the ‹/› Buttons o
so that OUT appears
.
If you wish to leave the tone controls in the signal
path, make sure that
IN appears on the TONE
line, using the ‹/› Buttons o to adjust this set-
ting if necessar
y. The amount of boost or cut for bass
and treble may be adjusted by
up to
±
10dB
,
in 2dB
increments, by pressing the
⁄
/
¤
Buttons n so
that the
› cursor is next to BASS or TREBLE
depending on which setting you wish to adjust.
Next,
press the
‹/› Buttons o until the desired setting
is shown.
When all desired changes have been made on this
menu, press the
¤ Button n so that the › cur-
sor is next to the

Surround Setup
T
he next step is to set the surround mode you wish
to use with the input that was previously selected in
t
he
I
NPUT SETUP
m
enu. 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 340, it is best to select Dolby
Pro Logic II or Logic 7 for most analog inputs. 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 pages 35–40 for more
information on available surround modes.
When selecting surround modes for digital program
material, the AVR 340 will always examine the data
stream and automatically select Dolby Digital or DTS
as applicable.
IMPORTANT NOTES:
• You will not be able to access any of the Dolby
Digital or DTS Digital modes unless a source signal
in that format is present. Thus, in order to make
adjustments to the output levels and delay settings
(if available) for these modes, you will need to play
a source in that for
mat,
such as a DVD.
•
Y
ou will not be able to access any of the 6.1- or
7.1-channel modes; such as Dolby Digital EX, DTS
Neo:6 (6CH), 7-channel Stereo and Logic 7/7.1;
unless the AVR 340 has been configured for 6.1-/
7.1-channel operation by setting the surround back
speaker channels to
SMALL or LARGE using
the
SPEAKER SIZE submenu, which is
accessed from the
MANUAL SETUP sub-
menu. See page 28 for more information. Note that
the
AVR 340 is configured for 6.1/7.1 operation by
default.
It is easiest to complete the surround setup using
the full-OSD on-screen menus
,
although you may also
use the remote control buttons for each mode group
(see pages 12–13).
