OAK OPEWONS AVC 50 Remote Control Cables The REMOTE CONTROL connectors are used if you have Yamaha compatible components (with an ff;3: mark). These connections allow you to control the components from the supplied Remote Control Unit. Connect the Remote Control cables from the components to the correct connectors on your amplifier (i.e. PHONO, TUNER, TAPE). Note that no cable is necessary for a compatible CD player as the Remote Control Unit operates the player directly. Once all components are connected to your amplifier, press the POWER switch to turn the equipment on. The power indicator will light on the amplifier, and power will be supplied to all connected components. Note that all other equipment must be on, and connected to the switched AC outlets of the amplifier, for this switch to operate as a "master" system on•off control. Listening to an Audio Source The INPUT SELECTOR is used to select which audio input source component connected to the amplifier is to be monitored. Press the left or right side of the button to select the components as indicated on the panel, in a left or right direction. Press once to select the next source Holding the button down selects each source in succession. Use the VOLUME control to increase or decrease the output volume level of all speakers. Use the REAR LEVEL button to adjust the volume of the rear speakers only. Press the UP side to increase volume, and the DOWN side to decrease volume. Use the BALANCE control on the rear panel to adjust the relative volume of the right and left speakers connected there. This should be done once when the speakers are positioned, to compensate for unbalanced listening conditions due to room acoustics and speaker placement. Use the INPUT BALANCE control to further adjust the relative volume of the rear speakers when the sourround sound processor is being used, to obtain optimum surround effect. Use the BASS EXTENSION switch to engage a circuit which extends the low frequency response of the amplifier. Use the AUDIO MUTING button on the remote control unit to lower overall system volume to the -20 dB level. It lets you lower the volume (to answer the phone for example) without disturbing the main volume setting. For instructions on using the other Processing Mode controls, see the section "Using the Surround Sound Processor" Recording an Audio Source The REC OUT SOUND buttons direct the audio signal from the source selected to the REC OUT terminals for recording. Since these buttons are independent from the . INPUT SELECTOR, you can listen to the same source you are recording, or to a different one When the OFF button is pressed, no audio signal is fed to the REC OUT terminals. Watching a Video Source The PICTURE SELECTOR is used to select which video input source component connected to the amplifier is to be monitored. Press the left or right side of the button to select the components as indicated on the panel, in a left or right direction. Press once to select the next source. Holding the button down selects each source in succession. Use the HIGH FILTER switch to cut out the high frequency audio noise which is noticeable in video programs. Remember that since audio and video selection are completely independent, you can listen to a different audio source than the video source you are watching. Recording a Video Source The REC OUT PICTURE buttons direct the video signal from the source selected to the REC OUT terminals for recording. Since these buttons are independent from the PICTURE SELECTOR, you can watch the same source you are recording, or a different one. When the OFF button is pressed, no video signal is fed to the REC OUT terminals. For information on using the Video Enhancer controls, see the section, "Using the Video Enhancer" Note that if the VIDEO ENHANCER PB/REC button is pressed during video recording, the picture will go blank for a few moments. 15
