At the “Center Speaker” menu, enter the distance between the front of the center channel speaker and the preferred
listening position, or “sweet spot”. If possible, this should be the location where the calibration microphone or SPL

Video Output Configuration
This menu selects the way in which video will be routed from the 7.0 to your TV, monitor, projector or video display
device. Although the 7.0 is capable of switching and selecting from either standard (composite) or “S” video sources, it
can only output a signal in it’s native form. That means that a composite video source may only be viewed in the
composite form, and an “S” video source may only be viewed on in the “S” video format. The 7.0 cannot convert a
source from one format to the other. Therefore, when you view a program, or if you wish to use the on screen
graphics and menu system, you must do two things, First, the display device must be set to the correct input. Second,
the 7.0 must know which format to use of the output of the menus. This section will configure the 7.0 so that the video
output matches the format of the video input of each source.
At the System Setup Menu, use the ”Ï“ or “Г buttons to move the “Ö“cursor so that it is pointing towards “Video
Config”. Press “Select” to move to the next menu.
Based on the setup in your specific system, use the “Ï“ and “Г keys to move the on screen “Γ cursor to one of the
four menu choices. (Figure #xx) They are based on the type of video sources connected to the rear panel jacks. You
may wish to check the exact configuration before proceeding.
A. The “Normal Presets” option routes the menus to the composite video output for the sources connected to inputs, 1
and 2, and 5 through 8. The menus are routes to the “S” video output when the sources connected to inputs 3 and 4
are selected. You will need to change the input at your TV monitor, projector or video display to match the output
source from the 7.0, unless that device has an auto select mode. If you connect only two “S” input devices to the
inputs marked “IN3” and “IN4” on the rear panel, no further change is needed. Press “Exit/OK” to return to the “System
Setup” menu.
