Operating your AV9

Introduction

For information display we recommend you use the OSD on your TV/screen whenever possible. However

all key information is also duplicated one line at a time on the front panel display of the AV9.

Using the controls

Switching on

Press the power button in. Between one and  ve seconds later, the power LED will then come on ( rst as

yellow), the front panel display window shows ‘ARCAM’, followed by ‘initialising’. This is followed by the

initial volume setting and the name of the input selected. After initialisation is complete, the power LED

changes colour to green.

Please wait until the unit has  nished initialising before operating the AV9. It is recommended that if the

unit is switched off, you should wait at least 10 seconds before switching the unit back on.

Standby

The AV9 has a standby mode which can be entered by pressing STANDBY on the remote control. When in

standby mode the display is blank and the power LED glows red.

When not being used, the AV9 may be left in standby mode, as power consumption is low. If you are not

using your AV9 for several days we recommend you switch the unit completely off at the front panel.

To switch on from standby

Press one of the source buttons on the front panel or on the remote control, or use the standby button

on the remote control.

Front panel display

The AV9 is ready for use after about four seconds. This display window shows the

processing mode and initial volume setting.

Output channels in digital processing modes are indicated in the format: ‘3/2.1’,

where ‘3’ refers to the front channels, ‘2’ to the rear channels, and ‘.1’ to the

subwoofer channel.

Selecting a source

To select a particular source, press the

corresponding button on the front panel or on the

remote control. There are nine inputs available:

DVD, Sat, AV, VCR, Phono/Aux, CD, Tuner, Tape

and DVD-A (multichannel).

On selecting a source, the AV9 will normally select

an active digital input in preference to an analogue

input. If you want to override the digital input and select the analogue input, press and hold the source

button for at least two seconds.

The processing mode and Stereo Direct functions are remembered and recalled for each input. The

digital input and high quality video input associated with each source may be customised in the setup

procedure.

The DVD-A input is intended for direct analogue pass-through of DVD Audio or SACD surround sources.

Apart from volume control and level trim, no processing modes are possible on this input.

Tape operation

The AV9 has a fully independent tape loop. This can be con gured to record the source you are listening

to, or to record any other input using the Record to Tape option in ‘Main Menu Screen 2’.

Pressing the TAPE button will select audio from the tape input.

If the Record to Tape option is set to Source (its default setting), the tape LED will illuminate as well

as the previously selected input.

If the Record to Tape option is set to a speci c input, the tape LED will illuminate as well as the input

selected in the Record to Tape menu item.

This indicates the tape loop is active and displays the source that will be recorded.

For example, if Record to Tape is set to Source and you want to record the CD input:

Select the CD input then put your recorder into record pause so that it will monitor its input.

Press the TAPE button – you can now listen to the sound actually being recorded by your tape

deck from the CD player.

If you select a different source from CD, the recording will change to this source.

If you want to record from CD while listening to the Tuner input:

Call up the ‘Main Menu Screen 2’ and set Record to Tape to CD.

Put your recorder into record pause so that it monitors its input then press the TAPE button.

You can now start the recording and listen to the sound actually being recorded by your tape

deck from the CD player.

Once the recording is running press the TUNER button to listen to the Tuner, the recording of the

CD will continue.

You can check the progress of the recording at any time by pressing the TAPE button again.
