12 The System Setup and Other Setup menus Chapter 12: The System Setup and Other Setup menus Important • The procedure for setting the receiver operation mode differs for the remote controls included with the SC-37 and SC-35. For the SC-37's remote control, set the remote control operation selector switch to RECEIVER. For the SC-35's remote control, press the RECEIVER button. When "set the remote control to the receiver operation mode" is indicated in these instructions, use the respective procedure described above. Making receiver settings from the System Setup menu The following section describes how to change the speaker-related settings manually and make various other settings (input selection, OSD language selection, etc.). 1 Switch on the receiver and your TV. Make sure that the TV's video input is set to this receiver. 2 Set the remote control to the receiver operation mode, then press HOME MENU. A Graphical User Interface (GUI) screen appears on your TV. Use and ENTER to navigate through the screens and select menu items. Press RETURN to confirm and exit the current menu. • Press HOME MENU at any time to exit the Home Menu. 3 Select 'System Setup' from the Home Menu, then press ENTER. 4 Select the setting you want to adjust. • Manual SP Setup - Sets the type of connection used for surround back terminals and the size, number distance and overall balance of the connected speakers (see Manual speaker setup below). • Input Setup - Specifies what you've connected to the digital, HDMI and component video inputs (see The Input Setup menu on page 45). • OSD Language - The GUI screen's display language can be changed (see Changing the OSD display language (OSD Language) on page 43). • Network Setup - Conducts the setup necessary to connect this unit to the network (see Network Setup menu on page 117). • Other Setup - Makes customized settings to reflect how you are using the receiver (see The Other Setup menu on page 119). Manual speaker setup This receiver allows you to make detailed settings to optimize the surround sound performance. You only need to make these settings once (unless you change the placement of your current speaker system or add new speakers). These settings are designed to customize your system, but if you're satisfied with the settings made in Automatically conducting optimum sound tuning (Full Auto MCACC) on page 43, it isn't necessary to make all of these settings. CAUTION • The test tones used in the Manual SP Setup are output at high volume. 1 Select 'Manual SP Setup', then press ENTER. See Making receiver settings from the System Setup menu above if you're not already at this screen. 2 Select the setting you want to adjust. If you are doing this for the first time, you may want to adjust these settings in order: • Speaker System - Specifies how you are using your surround back speakers (page 115). • Speaker Setting - Specifies the size and number of speakers you've connected (page 115). • Channel Level - Adjusts the overall balance of your speaker system (page 116). • Speaker Distance - Specifies the distance of your speakers from the listening position (page 116). • X-Curve - Adjusts the tonal balance of your speaker system for movie soundtracks (page 117). • THX Audio Setting - Specifies whether you are using a THX speaker setup (page 117). 3 Make the adjustments necessary for each setting, pressing RETURN to confirm after each screen. 114 En
