Playing the input source 1 3 5 2 Lightly press on the bottom of the door to open it. 1 Select the input source to be played. Example: CD INPUT SELECTOR CD 8 (Main unit) (Remote control unit) 2 When the tape 2 input (TAPE-2 MON) is selected, the input indicator lights. Lit 2 Select the input mode. • Selecting the analog mode Press the ANALOG button to switch to the analog input. ANALOG ANALOG (Main unit) (Remote control unit) • Selecting the external input (6CH/8CH EXT. IN) mode Press the 6CH/8CH EXT. IN (on the EXT. IN button on the remote control unit) to switch the external input. 6CH / 8CH EXT. IN EXT.IN (Main unit) (Remote control unit) • Selecting the AUTO, DIGITAL, PCM and RF modes The mode switches as shown below each time the INPUT MODE button is pressed. AUTO DIGITAL PCM (RF) INPUT MODE INPUT MODE (Main unit) (Remote control unit) 2 The RF mode can only be selected when the program source is set to VDP. 1 START SYSTEM CALL SET CALL DVD VDP 1 2 TV/DBS 4 V.AUX 5 VCR-1 CD 7 8 VCR-2 +10 0 RC-853 LEARNED/TX POWER OFF ON / SOURCE TUNER 3 SHIFT PHONO 6 MD / TAPE-1 9 CHANNEL TAPE-2 MON TV/VCR A / B 3 2 VOLUME DISC SKIP+ DOLBY / DTS HOME THX CINEMA SURROUND DIRECT DSP SIMULATION 5CH STEREO INPUT MODE ANALOG STEREO EXT.IN MASTER VOL.

The selected input modes for the separate input sources are stored in the memory. 1 AUTO (All auto mode) In this mode, the types of signals being input to the digital and analog input jacks for the selected input source are detected and the program in the AVR-5700's surround decoder is selected automatically upon playback. This mode can be selected for all input sources other than PHONO, TAPE-2 and TUNER. The presence or absence of digital signals is detected, the signals input to the digital input jacks are identified and decoding and playback are performed automatically in DTS, Dolby Digital or PCM (2 channel stereo) format. If no digital signal is being input, the analog input jacks are selected. With a VDP input (used most often for Laser Disc), the presence or absence of a Dolby Digital AC-3 RF signal is also detected. If an AC-3 RF signal is detected at the Dolby Digital AC-3 RF jack, the RF signals are decoded and played with priority. 2 DIGITAL (Digital auto mode) The signals being input to the digital input jacks are identified and decoding and playback are performed automatically in DTS, Dolby Digital or PCM format 3 PCM (exclusive PCM signal playback mode) Decoding and playback are only performed when PCM signals are being input. 4 RF (exclusive RF signal playback mode) This can only be selected when the program source is set to VDP. Decoding and playback are only performed when RF signals are being input. This is used when the LD player has an AC-3 RF output jack, but does not have a PCM digital output jack. 5 ANALOG (exclusive analog audio signal playback mode) The signals input to the analog input jacks are decoded and played. 6 6CH/8CH EXT. IN (external decoder input jack selection mode) The signals being input to the external decoder input jacks are played without passing through the surround circuitry. NOTES: • When the AUTO (all auto) mode is selected for the VDP program source and the mode is switched from pause or chapter skip, etc., to playback while playing the Dolby Digital sound of an LD, the PCM/analog sound may be output momentarily before the sound switches to Dolby Digital. If this happens, switch to the "RF" (fixed RF input) mode and the sound will not be interrupted. That is due to the fact that when paused or during chapter skip, the AC-3 RF signal is interrupted. • When playing PCM signals in the DIGITAL (digital auto) mode, the sound may be briefly interrupted when playback starts after searching on CDs or LDs, depending on how the signals are recorded on the disc. If this happens, switch to the "PCM" (exclusive PCM signal playback) mode to prevent the sound from being interrupted. • Note that noise will be output when CDs or LDs recorded in DTS format are played in the "PCM" (exclusive PCM signal playback) or "ANALOG" (exclusive PCM signal playback) mode. Select the AUTO (all auto) or DIGITAL (digital auto) mode when playing signals recorded in DTS from a laser disc player. 37
