Operation
Preset Tuning
Using the remote, up to 30 stations may be
stored in the AVR 110’s memory for easy recall
using the front panel controls or the remote.
To enter a station into the memory, first tune
the station using the steps outlined above.
Then:
1. Press the
Memory button on the
remote. Note that the
MEMORY indicator S
will be illuminated and flash in the Main
Information Display
Û.
2. Within five seconds, press the
Numeric
Keys
r corresponding to the location where
you wish to store this station’s frequency. Once
entered, the preset number will appear in the
Preset Number/Sleep Timer display i P.
3. Repeat the process after tuning any
additional stations to be preset.
Recalling Preset Stations
• To manually select a station previously
entered in the preset memory, press the
Numeric Keys r that correspond to the
desired station’s memory location.
• To manually tune through the list of stored
preset stations one by one, press the
Preset
Stations Selector
buttons )z on the
front panel or remote.
Tape Recording
In normal operation, the audio or video source
selected for listening through the AVR 110 is
sent to the record outputs. This means that any
program you are watching or listening to may
be recorded simply by placing machines con-
nected to the outputs for
Tape Outputs ™ or
Video 1 or 2 Outputs ∞bfi in the
record mode.
When a digital audio recorder is connected to
the
Digital Audio Outputs ª, you are able
to record the digital signal using a CD-R,
MiniDisc or other digital recording system.
NOTES:
• The digital outputs are active only when a
digital signal is present, and they do not
convert an analog input to a digital signal,
or change the format of the digital signal.
In addition, the digital recorder must be
compatible with the output signal. For
example, the PCM digital input from a CD
player may be recorded on a CD-R or
MiniDisc, but Dolby Digital or DTS signals
may not.
• Please make certain that you are aware of
any copyright restrictions on any material you
copy. Unauthorized duplication of copyrighted
materials is prohibited by federal law.
Output Level Trim Adjustment
Normal output level adjustment for the
AVR 110 is established using the test tone, as
outlined on pages 22 and 23. In some cases,
however, it may be desirable to adjust the out-
put levels using program material such as a test
disc, or a selection you are familiar with.
Additionally, the output level for the subwoofer
can only be adjusted using this procedure.
To adjust the output levels using program
material, first set the reference volume for the
front-left and front-right channels using the
Volume Control Ó .
Once the reference level has been set, press
the
Channel Select button
l
Ù and note
that
FRONT L LEV will appear in the
Main Information Display W. To change
the level, first press the
Set button oÔ ,
and then use the
Selector buttons 5 or the
⁄
/
¤
buttons
mq
to raise or lower the
level. DO NOT use the volume control, as this
will alter the reference setting.
Once the change has been made, press the
Set
button oÔ and then press the Selector
buttons 5 or the
⁄
/
¤
buttons
mq
to
select the next output channel location that you
wish to adjust. To adjust the subwoofer level,
press the
Selector buttons 5 or the
⁄
/
¤
buttons
mq
until SW LEV appears in the
Main Information Display W.
Press the
Set button oÔ when the name of
the desired channel appears in the
Main
Information Display
W follow the instruc-
tions shown earlier to adjust the level.
Repeat the procedure as needed until all chan-
nels requiring adjustment have been set. When
all adjustments have been made and no further
adjustments are made for five seconds, the
AVR 110 will return to normal operation.
NOTE: The output levels may be separately
trimmed for each digital and analog surround
mode. If you wish to have different trim levels for
a specific mode, select that mode and then follow
the instructions in the steps shown earlier.
Display Brightness
The AVR 110’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, press and
hold the
Set button Ô on the front for three
seconds until the message in the
Main
Information Display
W 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.
When
FULL appears in the Main
Information Display
W, the display is at its
normal brightness. When
HALF appears, the
display is at half the normal brightness level.
When
OFF appears, 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.
Once the desired brightness level is selected, it
will remain in effect until it is changed again or
until the unit is turned off.
Memory Backup
This product is equipped with a memory backup
system that preserves the system configuration
information and tuner presets if the unit is acci-
dentally unplugged or subjected to a power
outage. This memory will last for approximately
two weeks, after which time all information
must be reentered.
