Input Setup

The first step is to configure each input. Once an

input is selected,

the settings mode will “attach” them-

selves to that input and be stored in a nonvolatile

memory. This means that once configured, the selec-

tion 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 customize each source to your spe-

cific listening and viewing 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 once so

that the MASTER MENU (Figure 1) appears. The

➔ cursor will be next to the IN/OUT SETUP

line. Press the Set Button q and the IN/OUT

SETUP menu (Fig. 2) will appear on the screen.

Press the

‹

›

Navigation Button o until the

desired input name appears, as well as being indicated

in the front-panel Input Indicators !. As you scroll

through the list of inputs, you may notice that the

video will occasionally switch to black, and you will

hear a slight click. This is normal and does not indi-

cate any problem with the AVR 7300. When the video

turns to black, that is your indication that the proces-

sor has momentarily muted the signal while the proper

video settings for each input are reestablished by the

Faroudja processor. The clicking noise is caused by

the use of a relay to switch between the component

video inputs for the highest signal quality and to mini-

mize video crosstalk.

When any of the video inputs is selected as the

source, you have the option of changing the name that

appears in the on-screen and front-panel messages.

This allows you to associate a specific product brand

or other name with the input, or to simply enter any

name that will help you to remember which source is

being selected.

To change the input name, press the

⁄/¤

Navigation Button o on the remote so that the ➔

cursor is pointing to TITLE. Next, press and hold

the Set Button q for a few seconds until a flashing

box appears to the right of the colon. Immediately

release the Set Button q, as you are now ready

to enter the device name.

Press the

⁄/¤ Navigation Button o and a

complete set of alpha-numeric characters will be avail-

able with the start of the alphabet in capital letters fol-

lowed by the lower-case letters and then numbers and

symbols. Press the button either way until the first

letter of the desired name appears. If you wish to

enter a blank space as the first character, press the

› Navigation Button o.

When the desired character appears, press the ›

Navigation Button o and repeat the process for

the next letter. Continue until the desired name is

entered, up to 14 characters. When the name is com-

plete, press the Set Button q to enter it into the

system memory.

If your system includes sources equipped with Y/Pr/Pb

component video outputs, the AVR 7300 is able to

switch them to send the proper signals to a video dis-

play. The Component Video Input FGH may be

assigned to any source for added system flexibility.

The default setting is for the DVD Component Video

Input F to be assigned to the DVD and 6/8-

Channel Direct Inputs, with the Component Video 1

Input H assigned to the device defined as Video 1,

and Component Video 2 Input G assigned to all

other inputs. If your system doesn’t include component

video, or you don’t need to change these defaults,

press the

¤ Navigation Button o to go to the

next setting.

To change the Component Video assignment, first

make certain that the ➔ cursor is pointing to the

COMPONENT IN line on the menu screen;

then press the ‹/› Navigation Button o until

the desired input name appears.

When the desired

component input has been selected,

press the ¤

Navigation Button o to go to the next setting.

If you wish to associate a digital input with an input

source or change the default digital input selection,

press the

Navigation Button o while the

IN/OUT SETUP menu (Figure 2) is on the

screen, until the cursor moves to the DIGITAL

IN line. Press the

‹

›

Navigation Button o until

the desired digital input appears. To return to the ana-

log input, press the button until ANALOG appears.

To change the digital input at any time using the dis-

crete function buttons and the semi-OSD system,

press the Digital Select Button p on the remote.

Within five seconds, make your input selection using

the

⁄

Navigation Button o until the desired

digital or analog input is shown in the Upper Display

Line # and in the lower line of the on-screen dis-

play. Press the Set Button q to enter the new

digital input assignment.

Some digital video input sources, such as a cable box

or HDTV set-top, may change between analog and

digital outputs, depending on which channel is in use.

The AVR 7300’s Auto Polling feature allows you to

avoid losing the audio feed when this happens by per-

mitting both analog and digital connections to the

same source on the AVR 7300. Digital audio is the

default, and the unit will automatically switch to the

analog audio if the digital audio stream stops.

In cases where only a digital source is used, you may

wish to disable the Auto Polling feature to prevent the

AVR 7300 from trying to “find” an analog source

when the digital source is paused. To turn Auto Polling

off for any input, first make certain that the ➔ cursor

is pointing to the AUTO POLL line on the menu

screen. Next, press the

‹

›

Navigation Button o

so that OFF appears. Repeat the procedure at any

time by selecting ON to restore the Auto Polling

feature.

When any changes to the Auto Polling configuration

are complete, press the

Navigation Button o

to go to the next setting.

The front-panel analog Video 5 Inputs 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 audio/video recorders. To temporarily switch them

to outputs, you must first be at the IN/OUT

SETUP menu. Press the

Navigation Button

o until the on-screen ➔ cursor is pointing to the

VIDEO 5 line. Press the

›

Navigation Button

o so that the word OUT appears. The Input/

Output Status Indicator between the S- and

composite video jacks will turn red, indicating that the

analog Video 5 jacks are now record outputs.

Selection of the front-panel jacks as an output will

remain effective as long as the AVR 7300 is on. Once

the unit is turned off, the jacks will revert to their nor-

mal use as an input when the unit is turned on again.

When changes to the Video 5 setting are

complete, press the

¤ Navigation Button o

to go to the next setting, or press the › Navigation

Button o until the ➔ cursor is next to BACK

TO MASTER MENU to continue.

The REC OUT line gives you the opportunity to

select which type of audio signal is directed to the

Record Output Jacks (associated with the Tape ∂,

Video 1 π and Video 2 ∆ sources). The default

setting is ANALOG, which will send the analog

signal from any source to all three sets of analog

record outputs.
