5. Turn the AVR 7200 on either by pressing the

System Power Control 2 on the front panel, or

via the remote by pressing the Power On Button

b, the AVR Selector e or any of the Input

Selectors df on the remote. The Power

Indicator 3 will turn green to confirm that the unit

is on, and the Main Information Display ˜ will

also light.

Using the On-Screen Display

When making the following adjustments, you may find

it easier to use the AVR 7200’s on-screen display sys-

tem. These easy-to-read displays give you a clear pic-

ture of the current status of the unit and make it easy

to see which speaker, delay, input or digital selection

you are making.

To view the on-screen menus, make certain you have

made a connection from the

Video Monitor Output

Jack d on the rear panel to the composite or S-

Video input of your TV or projector. In order to view

the AVR 7200’s displays, the correct video source

must be selected on the video display. The on-screen

menus are not available when a component video

display is in use.

IMPORTANT NOTE: When viewing the on-screen

menus using a CRT-based projector, plasma display or

any direct-view CRT monitor or television, it is important

that they not be left on the screen for an extended peri-

od of time. The constant display of a static image such

as these menus or video game images may cause the

image to be permanently “burned into” the projection

tubes, plasma screen or CRT.This type of damage is not

covered by the AVR 7200 warranty and may not be

covered by the projector/TV set’s warranty.

The AVR 7200 has two on-screen display modes,

“Semi-OSD” and “Full-OSD.” When making configura-

tion adjustments, it is recommended that the Full-OSD

mode be used. This will place an option listing on the

screen, making it easier to view the available options.

Making Configuration Adjustments

The full-OSD system is available by pressing the OSD

Button U. When this button is pressed, the

MASTER MENU (Figure 1) will appear, and

adjustments are made from the individual menus.

Figure 1

The semi-OSD system is also available, allowing you

to make adjustments directly, by pressing the appro-

priate buttons on the front panel or remote control for

the specific parameter to be adjusted. For example, to

change the digital input for any of the sources, press

the

Digital Select Button oP and then press

the

⁄

Buttons U)# to scroll through the

list of options as they appear in the on-screen display

or the

Lower Display Line B.

To use the full-OSD menu system, press the OSD

Button U. When the menu is on the screen, press

the

⁄

Navigation Button n until the on-

screen

›

cursor is next to the item you wish to adjust,

and then press the Set Button p to adjust that

item. The menus will remain on the screen for 20 sec-

onds, and then they will “time-out” and disappear from

the screen. The time-out may be increased to as much

as 50 seconds by going to the

ADVANCED

menu, and changing the item titled FULL OSD

TIME OUT.

When the full-OSD system is in use, the menu selec-

tions are not shown in the

Main Information Display

˜AB. When the full-OSD menu system is used,

OSD ON will appear in the Upper Display Line

A and the OSD Indicator C will light to remind

you that a video display must be used. When the

semi-OSD system is used in conjunction with the dis-

crete configuration buttons, the on-screen display will

show a single line of text with the current menu selec-

tion. That selection will also be shown in the

Upper

Display Line A or the Lower Display Line B,

depending on which parameter is being adjusted.

Setting the System Configuration Memory

The AVR 7200 features an advanced memory system

that enables you to establish different configurations

for the speaker configuration, digital input, surround

mode, delay times, crossover frequency and output

levels for each input source. This flexibility enables you

to custom-tailor the way in which you listen to each

source and have the AVR 7200 memorize those set-

tings. This means, for example, that you may use dif-

ferent output levels or trims for different sources, or

set different speaker configurations with the resultant

changes to the bass management system. Once these

settings are made, they will automatically be recalled

whenever you select that input.

The factory default settings for the AVR 7200 have all

inputs except for DVD configured for an analog audio

input except for the DVD input, where the

Coaxial

Digital Audio Input 1 is the default. The default

speaker settings are for “Large” speakers at the front

left/right, “Small” at all other positions, and for the

Subwoofer set as being on. However, once the DSP

processing system is used for the first time for any

input, the speaker settings will automatically default

to “Small” at all positions with the subwoofer set to

“LFE.” The default setting for the surround modes is

“Surround Off,” or two-channel stereo, although Dolby

Digital or DTS will automatically be selected as appro-

priate when a source with digital encoding is in use.

Before using the unit, you will probably want to

change the settings for most inputs so that they are

properly configured to reflect the use of digital or ana-

log inputs, the type of speakers installed and the sur-

round mode specifics of your home theater system.

Remember that since the AVR 7200 memorizes the

settings for each input individually, you will need to

make these adjustments for each input used.

However, once they are made, further adjustment is

only required when system components are changed.

To make this process as quick and as easy as possi-

ble, we suggest that you use the full-OSD system with

the on-screen menus, and step through each input.

Once you have completed the settings for the first

input, many settings may be duplicated for the remain-

ing inputs. It is also a good idea to set the configura-

tion data in the order these items are listed in the

MASTER MENU, as some settings require a

specific entry in a prior menu item. Remember that

once the settings are made for one input, they must

be made for all other input sources in your system.

Input Setup

The first step in configuring the AVR 7200 is to config-

ure each input. Once an input is selected,

all settings

for the Digital Input, Speaker Configuration, Surround

Mode and Delay Timing will “attach” themselves to that

input and be stored in a non-volatile memory. This

means that once made, the selection of an input will

automatically recall those settings. For that reason, the

procedures described below must be repeated for

each input source so that you have the opportunity to

custom tailor each source to your specific listening

requirements. However, once made they need not be

changed again unless you need to alter a setting.

When using the full-OSD system to make the setup

adjustments, press the

OSD Button U once so that
