31 ADVANCED FEATURES

Advanced Features

The AVR 210 is equipped with a number of

advanced features that add extra flexibility to

the unit’s operation.While it is not necessary

to use these features to operate the unit, they

provide additional options that you may wish

to use.

Display Brightness

The AVR 210’s Main Information Display

Û is set at a default brightness level that is

sufficient for viewing in a normally lit room.

However, in some home-theater installations,

you may wish to occasionally lower the bright-

ness of the display, or turn it off completely.

To change the display brightness setting for a

specific listening session, you will need to make

an adjustment in the ADVANCED

SELECT menu. To start the adjustment,

press the OSD button v to bring the

MASTER MENU to the screen. Press the

button q six times, until the on-screen

›

cur-

sor is next to the ADVANCED line. Press the

Set button o to enter the ADVANCED

SELECT menu (Figure 9).

Figure 9

To change the brightness setting, at the

ADVANCED SELECT menu, make cer-

tain that the on-screen

›

cursor is next to the

VFD line, and press the

›

button until

the desired brightness level is highlighted in the

video display. When FULL is highlighted, the

display is at its normal brightness. When

HALF is highlighted, the display is at half the

normal brightness level. When OFF is high-

lighted, all of the indicators in the Main

Information Display Û will go dark. Note,

however, that the green LEDs for the Input

Indicators  and the Surround Mode

Indicators ˜, as well as for the Power

Indicator 3, will always remain lit to remind

you that the unit is turned on.

The display brightness may also be changed by

pressing and holding the Set button Ô on the

front for three seconds until the message in the

Main Information Display X reads VFD

FULL. Within five seconds, press the front

panel Selector buttons 5 until the desired

brightness display level is shown. At that point,

press the Set button Ô again to enter the

setting.

Once the desired brightness level is selected, it

will remain in effect until it is changed again or

until the unit is turned off.

If you wish to make other adjustments, press

the

⁄

buttons mq until the on-screen

›

cursor is next to the desired setting or the

RETURN TO MENU line and press the Set

button o. If you have no other adjustments

to make, press the OSD button v to exit the

menu system.

Turn On Volume Level

As is the case with most audio/video receivers,

when the AVR 210 is turned on, it will always

return to the volume setting in effect when the

unit was turned off. However, you may prefer to

always have the AVR 210 turn on at a specific

setting, regardless of what was last in use

when the unit was turned off.To change the

default condition so that the same volume level

is always used at turn-on, you will need to

make an adjustment in the ADVANCED

SELECT menu. To start the adjustment,

press the OSD button v to bring the

MASTER MENU (Figure 1) to the screen.

Press the

button q six times, until the on-

screen

›

cursor is next to the ADVANCED

line. Press the Set button o to enter the

ADVANCED SELECT menu (Figure 9).

At the ADVANCED SELECT menu make

certain that the on-screen

›

cursor is next to

the VOLUME DEFAULT line by pressing

the

⁄

buttons mq as needed. Next,

press the

›

button so that the word ON

is highlighted in the video display. Next, press

the

button q once so that the on-screen

›

cursor is next to the DEFAULT VOL

SET line.To set the desired turn-on volume,

press the

‹

›

buttons n until the

desired volume level is shown on the

DEFAULT VOL SET line. Note that this

setting may NOT be made with the regular vol-

ume controls.

NOTE: Since the setting for the turn-on volume

cannot be heard while the setting is being

made, you may wish to determine the setting

before making the adjustment. To do this, listen

to any source and adjust the volume to the

desired level using the regular volume controls

Ó . When the desired volume level to be

used at turn-on is reached, make a note of the

setting as it appears in the lower third of the

video screen or in the Main Information

Display X. (A typical volume level will appear

as a negative number such as –25dB.) When

making the adjustment, use the

‹

›

buttons

n to enter this setting.

Unlike some of the other adjustments in this

menu, the turn-on volume default will remain in

effect until it is changed or turned off in this

menu, even when the unit is turned off.

If you wish to make other adjustments, press

the

⁄

buttons mq until the on-screen

›

cursor is next to the desired setting or the

RETURN TO MENU line and press the Set

button o. If you have no other adjustments

to make, press the OSD button v to exit the

menu system.

Semi-OSD Settings

The semi-OSD system places one line messages

at the lower third of the video display screen

whenever the Volume, Input Source, Surround

mode or tuner frequency of any of the configu-

ration settings are changed.The semi-OSD sys-

tem is helpful in that enables you to have feed-

back on any control changes or remote com-

mands using the video display when it is diffi-

cult to view the front panel displays. However,

you may occasionally prefer to turn these dis-

plays off for a particular listening session. You

may also want to adjust the length of time the

displays remain on the screen. Both of those

options are possible with the AVR 210.

To turn off the semi-OSD system, you will need

to make an adjustment in the ADVANCED

SELECT menu (Figure 9). To start the

adjustment, press the OSD button v to bring

the MASTER MENU to the screen. Press

the

¤ button q six times, until the on-screen

¤ cursor is next to the ADVANCED line.

Press the Set button o to enter the

ADVANCED SELECT menu.

At the ADVANCED SELECT menu,

make certain that the on-screen

› cursor is

next to the SEMI OSD DEFAULT line by

pressing the

⁄

buttons mq as needed.

Next, press the

› button so that the word

OFF is highlighted in the video display.

Note that this setting is temporary and will

remain active only until it is changed or until

the AVR 210 is turned off. Once the unit is

turned off, the semi-OSD displays will remain
