Once the setting is made, the

will turn red, indicating that the jacks

are now an output, instead of in the default setting as

an input. Once changed to an output, the setting will

remain as long as the AVR 7200 is turned on, unless

the setting is changed in the OSD menu system, as

described above. However, once the AVR 7200 is

turned off, the setting is cancelled. When the unit is

turned on again, the front panel jacks will return to

their normal default setting as an input. If you wish to

use their jacks as an output at a future time, the set-

ting must be changed again using the OSD menu sys-

tem, as described above.

Output Level Trim Adjustment

Normal output level adjustment for the AVR 7200 is

established using the test tone, as outlined on pages

24 – 26. In some cases, however, it may be desirable

to adjust the output 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

ır

î

.

If you are using a disc with test signals or an external

signal generator as the source from which to trim the

output levels, you may use the EzSet feature of the

remote as an SPL meter to guide you to the correct

SPL level. To use the remote for this purpose, follow

the instructions shown on page 25 for using the

remote in the SPL meter mode.

Once the reference level has been set, press the

Channel Select Button

m

and

FRONTL

LEV

will appear in the

Lower Display Line

B

.

To change the level, first press the

Set Button

p

,

and then use the

⁄

¤

Navigation Button

to

raise or lower the level. DO NOT use the volume con-

trol, as this will alter the reference setting.

Once the change has been made, press the

Set

p

and then press the

requiring adjustment have been set. When all adjust-

ments have been made and no further adjustments

are made for five seconds, the AVR 7200 will return to

normal operation.

The channel output for any input may also be adjusted

using the full-OSD on-screen menu system. First, set

the volume to a comfortable listening level using the

Volume Control

Memory Backup

This product is equipped with a memory backup sys-

tem that preserves the system configuration information

and tuner presets if the unit is accidentally unplugged

or subjected to a power outage. This memory will last

for approximately two weeks, after which time all infor-

mation must be reentered.
