Initial Setup Setting Up for Surround Sound To ensure the best possible surround sound, complete the following setup operations. You only need to make these settings once (unless you change the placement of your current speaker system or add new speakers, etc.). To set up this receiver's home cinema system you can use on-screen displays on your TV or the front panel display on the receiver. Switch on the receiver and your TV, and make sure that the receiver is selected as your TV's video input. You can make the settings with the remote control or the MULTI JOG dial on the front panel.

Then press the ENTER button (or the MULTI JOG dial). There are three second tier setup modes: Assign Setup, Surround Setup and Rename. The first of these, Assign Setup, is for telling the receiver which components are hooked up to which terminals and how they are connected as well as setting up the optional MULTI ROOM feature, which is only used if you want the receiver to power systems in more than one room. In the Assign Setup menu you must make the Digital In adjustments if you didn't follow the default settings when you hooked up your DVD/LD player. We suggest you start with Digital In and adjust and make all the necessary adjustments here and then move on to the other entries in this menu and decide if you need to make these adjustments. It is likely you will not need to bother with any of the other things on this menu.
