SYSTEM CONFIGURATION 21
Input Setup
The first step in configuring the AVR5000 is to
select an input. This may be done by pressing
the front panel Input Source Selector
!
until the desired input’s name appears momen-
tarily in the Main Information Display
Y
,
and the green LED lights next to the input’s
name in the front panel Input Indicators
.
The input may also be selected by pressing the
appropriate Input Selector on the remote control
46
.
When using the full-OSD system to make the
setup adjustments, press the OSD button
L
once so that the MASTER MENU (Figure
1) appears. Note that the
cursor will be next
to the IN/OUT SETUP line. Press the
Set button
F
to enter the menu and the
IN/OUT SETUP menu (Figure 2) will
appear on the screen. Press the
/ buttons
EU
until the desired input name appears in
the highlighted video, as well as being indicated
in the front panel Input Indicators
by the
green LED next to the desired input name. 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
¤ but-
ton
D
on the remote while the IN/OUT
SETUP menu (Figure 2) is on the screen, and
note that the on-screen cursor will drop down to
the DIGITAL IN line. Press the
/ but-
tons
EU
until the name of the desired digi-
tal input name appears. To return to the
ANALOG input, press the buttons until the
word analog appears. When the correct input
appears, press the
¤ button
D
until the
cursor appears next to RETURN TO
MENU, and press the Set button
F
.
To change the digital input associated with the
input selected at any time using the discrete
function buttons and the semi-OSD system,
press the Digital Input Select button
Ú
G
on the front panel or the remote. Within five sec-
onds, make your input selection using the
Selector buttons on the front panel
5
or the
/¤ buttons
D
on the remote until the
desired digital or analog input is shown in the
Main Information Display
Y
and in the
lower third of the video display connected to the
AVR5000. Then press the Set button
F
to
enter the new digital input assignment.
An exclusive Harman Kardon feature is the abili-
ty to switch front panel jacks from their normal
use as inputs to output connections so that
portable recording devices may easily be con-
nected. The front panel analog Video 4 Jacks
^
are normally set as an input for use with
camcorders, video games and other portable
audio/video products, but they may be switched
to an output for connection to portable
audio/video recorders. To temporarily switch
them to outputs, select the IN/OUT
SETUP menu. Press the
¤
button
D
until
the on-screen
cursor is pointing to the
VIDEO 4 line. Press the
button
U
so
that the word OUTis highlighted. Note that
the Input/Output Status Indicator
$
between the S and Composite video jacks will
turn red, indicating that the analog Video 4
jacks
^
are now record outputs.
On the AVR5000, the Coaxial 3 Digital Jack
%
is normally an input, but it may also be
switched to a digital output for use with CD-
R/RW decks, MD recorders or other digital audio
recorders. To change the jack to an output, press
the
/¤ buttons
D
while the IN/OUT
SETUP menu is on the screen so that the
cursor is next to COAXIAL 3. Then press
the
/ buttons
E
/
U
so that the word
OUTis highlighted. Note that the Digital
Coax 3 Status Indicator
$
will turn red,
indicating that the jack is now a record output.
Note: A signal will be sent to this jack only
when the input selected for use by the AVR5000
is digital. Digital signals will be passed through
regardless of their format, and which digital
input (optical or coax) they are fed from.
However, analog signals are not converted to
digital, and the format of the signal (e.g., PCM,
Dolby Digital or DTS) may not be changed.
Selection of the Digital Coax 3 jack as an
output will remain effective as long as the
AVR 5000 is on. However, once the unit is
turned off, the jack will revert to its normal use
as an input when the unit is turned on again.
Surround Setup
Once the input setup has been completed, the
next step for that input is to set the surround
mode you wish to use with that input. Since sur-
round modes are a matter of personal taste, feel
free to select any mode you wish – you may
change it later.The Surround Mode chart on
page 28 may help you select the mode best suit-
ed to the input source selected. However, to
make it easier to establish the initial parameters
for the AVR5000, it is best to select Dolby Pro
Logic 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, if
that is your preferred listening mode for stan-
dard stereo sources, where it is unlikely that sur-
round encoded material will be used.
Alternatively, the 5 Channel Stereo or
Logic 7
Music mode may also be a good choice for
stereo-only source material.
It is easiest to complete the surround setup
using the full-OSD on-screen menus. From the
main MASTER MENU menu (Figure 1),
press the
/¤ button
D
until the cursor is
next to the SURROUND SETUP menu.
Press the Set button
F
so that the
SURROUND SETUP menu (Figure 3 or 4)
is on the screen.
Figure 3
Figure 4
Since the factory default for all inputs is Stereo,
the words SURR OFFwill initially appear in
highlighted video (Figure 3) unless another sur-
round mode choice was made with the input
just selected. To change the surround mode
while the
cursor is next to the surround line,
press the
/ buttons
EU
until the desired
surround mode’s name appears in the highlight-
ed video. As the modes are changed, a green
LED will also light next to the mode names in
the Surround Mode Indicators
˜
on the
front panel.
Note that the data lines next to the items in the
screen display will show either numbers or a
series of dashes, depending on whether or not
the specific parameter is adjustable. For example,
the Center Delay and Night Mode items are only
adjustable for Dolby Digital, and the Delay Time
is only adjusted for Dolby Digital and Dolby Pro
Logic. Note, also, that Dolby Digital and DTS will
only appear as choices (Figure 4) when a digital
input was previously selected.These settings for
Delay, Crossover Frequency and Night mode, that
are independent of any input selected, will be
described in the next chapter on page 23.
