Setting up

Using the On Screen Display (OSD)

The easiest way to set up the AVR100’s multi-channel audio and

video options is through its On Screen Display (OSD).

To enter the OSD, ensure that you have a TV connected and

press any of the arrows on the remote control’s cursor pad.

To navigate from the ﬁ rst (i.e. Setup) page, use the

•

and

•

arrows to highlight a line. To enter a highlighted page, press OK.

To leave the OSD, highlight ‘EXIT’ and press OK.

Once on a page, use the

•

and

•

arrows to move to a line

and the

•

and

•

arrows to change an option. Once you are

happy with the settings, highlight ‘SAVE AND EXIT’ and press OK

to keep them in memory. If you are unsure about the changes,

or you have entered the page accidentally, highlight ‘DO NOT

SAVE AND EXIT’ and press OK and any changes on that page

are ignored.

Setup page

The Setup page forms the index to the OSD. To navigate from

here, use the cursor pad on your remote control.

Input settings page

AUDIO Identiﬁ es the active audio source (i.e. CD,

Tuner, SAT, VCR, etc.)

VIDEO Identiﬁ es the active video source (SAT, DVD,

VCR or AUX)

MODE Identiﬁ es the surround mode associated with

the current input (Dolby Digital, DTS, Dolby

Pro Logic, Hall effect or Stereo)

DYNAMIC RANGE A compressed dynamic range is useful for

low level (night time) listening. For Dolby

Digital sources, the dynamic range has

options of 100%, 75%, 50% or 25%).

Channel balance page

From the Channel balance page, you can trim the level of

each individual loudspeaker connected to the AVR100. Due to

the different performance characteristics or positioning of each

loudspeaker they may need to be set to different levels to

provide a balanced sound from the listening position. To help set

this balance the AVR100 can generate a test tone that plays an

identical signal through each channel in turn.

Once the channel balance page is shown in the OSD, press

the

TEST button on the remote control to start the test tone.

Make sure that the volume on the AVR100 is set sufﬁ ciently

high for this to be heard. The test tone automatically cycles

through each speaker channel until the TEST button is pressed

a second time.

Each loudspeaker can be trimmed between +10dB and –10dB.

You can return to the Channel balance page at any time (without

ﬁ rst entering the OSD) by pressing the

TEST button on the

remote control. Press TEST again to exit this page.

CHANNEL BALANCE

NOTE: In some cases you may ﬁ nd that the OSD is not still

or that it ‘rolls over’ your screen. (You may also notice this

effect when the volume bar is shown on screen.) If this is

the case, you will need to switch the video system being

used by the AVR100.

To do this, ﬁ rst exit the OSD by highlighting

EXIT and press

OK. Press and hold the STORE button on the front panel of

the AVR100 then toggle between the systems shown in the

display area by pressing the SAT button – NTSC (used in

North America) or PAL (used in most of Europe) – until the

correct system is selected.

NOTE: The test tone generates a noise which may not be

heard through a subwoofer. To set your sub to a suitable

level, turn off the test tone and experiment with the trim

while playing a piece of music you are familiar with. There is

no right or wrong level for the sub: simply ﬁ nd the balance

that is best for you.
