MAIN REMOTE CONTROL FUNCTIONS 11
M
Dolby Mode Selector: This button is used
to select one of the available Dolby Surround
processing modes. Each press of this button will
select one of the Dolby Pro Logic II modes, Dolby
3 Stereo or Dolby Digital. Note that the Dolby
Digital mode is only available with a digital input
selected and the other modes only as long as a
Dolby Digital source is not playing (except Pro
Logic II with Dolby Digital 2.0 recordings, see
page 32). See page 27 for the available Dolby sur-
round mode options.
N
DTS Digital Mode Selector: When a DTS
source is in use the AVR will select the appropri-
ate mode automatically and no other mode will
be available. Pressing this button will display the
mode currently selected by the AVR´s decoder,
depending on the surround material played and
the speaker setting. When a DTS source is not in
use, this button has no function. (See page 27 for
the available DTS options.)
O
Logic 7 Selector: Press this button to select
one of the available Logic 7 surround modes. (See
page 27 for the available Logic 7 options.)
P
Transport Control Buttons: These buttons
do not have any functions for the AVR, but they
may be programmed for the forward/reverse play
operation of a wide variety of CD or DVD players,
and audio or video- cassette recorders. (See page
44 for more information on programming the
remote.)
Q
EzSet Sensor Microphone: The sensor
microphone for the EzSet microphone is behind
these slots. When using the remote to calibrate
speaker output levels using EzSet, be sure that
you do not hold the remote in a way that covers
these slots. (See page 24 for more information on
using EzSet).
Skip Up/Down Buttons: These buttons do
not have a direct function with the AVR, but
when used with a compatibly programmed CD or
DVD player/changer they will change the tracks
on the disc currently being played.
Stereo Mode Selector: Press this button
to select a stereo playback mode. When the but-
ton is pressed so that
DSP SURR OFF
appears in the Main Information Display
˜
,
the AVR will operate in a bypass mode with true
fully analog, two-channel left/right stereo mode
with no surround processing or bass manage-
ment as opposed to other modes where digital
processing is used. When the button is pressed so
that
SURROUND OFF appears in the Main
Information Display
˜
, you may enjoy a two-
channel presentation of the sound along with the
benefits of bass management. When the button
is pressed so that
5 CH STEREO or
7 STEREO appears, the stereo signal is rout-
ed to all five speakers, if installed.(See page 23
for more information on stereo playback modes).
DTS Neo:6 Mode Selector: Pressing this
selector button cycles the AVR through the
various DTS Neo:6 modes, which extract a five- or
seven-channel surround field from two-channel
program material (from PCM source or analog
input signal). The first press selects the last DTS
Neo:6 surround mode that was in use, and each
subsequent press selects the next mode in the
following order:
Macro Buttons: Press these buttons to
store or recall a “Macro”, which is a pre-pro-
grammed sequence of commands stored in the

lighting
green for each channel. (See page 24 for more

TV/Video Button: This button does not
have a direct function on the AVR, but when used
with a compatibly programmed VCR, DVD or
satellite receiver that has a “TV/Video” function,
pressing this button will switch between the out-
put of the player or receiver and the external
video input to that player. Consult the Owner’s
Manual for your specific player or receiver for the
details of how it implements this function.

Mute: Press this button to momentarily
silence the AVR or TV set being controlled,
depending on which device has been selected.
When the AVR remote is being programmed to
operate another device, this button is pressed with
the Input Selector button

gramming process. (See page 41 for more infor-
mation on programming the remote.)

Dim Button: Press this button to activate
the Dimmer function, which reduces the bright-
ness of the front panel display, or turn it off
entirely. The first press of the button shows the
default state, which is full brightness by indicat-

again within five seconds to reduce the bright-
ness by 50%, as indicated by
DIMMER
HALF
. Press the button again within five sec-
onds and the main display will go completely

play will always return to full brightness when
the AVR is turned on. In addition,both the Power
Indicator

and the blue accent lighting inside
the volume control will always remain at full
brightness regardless of the setting. This is to
remind you that the AVR is still turned on.
NOTE: With the press of any remote button the
Input Selector button
45
associated
with the botton pressed will briefly flash red to
confirm the transmission of the command, as
long as there is a function for that button with
the device selected (see function list on
pages 44-45).
