Basic Playback Switching Analog and Digital Signal Input This switch moves the input fed to the receiver between analog and digital sources. You need to take special care to switch to the appropriate input, when necessary. For example, the switch would have to be on DIGITAL to use DOLBY DIGITAL or DTS surround sound but it would have to be on ANALOG to record to the analog out jacks on the receiver. The default setting is AUTO (priority is given to a digital signal, if there is one). 1 SOURCE RECEIVER DVD CD TV VCR 1 MULTI CONTROL CD-R TUN VCR 2 TVC 1 2 3 LOUDNESS VIDEO SELECT MULTI CH INPUT 4 INPUT ATT 5 DIGITAL NR 6 FL DIMMER 7 8 9 REMOTE SETUP SYSTEM SETUP SIGNAL SELECT +10 DISC 0 ENTER EFFECT/CH SEL RECEIVER TV VOL TV MASTER VOLUME TV CONTROL TVFUNC 4 CHANNEL ¢ TUNE ST ST ENTER TUNE GUIDE D.ACCESS & BAND ‹ MENU CLASS * 2 2 1 Press RECEIVER.

Each press switches the signal in the order below: AUTO ANALOG DIGITAL 3 While SIGNAL SELECT is set to DIGITAL lights when a Dolby Digital signal is input, DTS lights when a DTS signal is input. When a DTS signal is input. When a Dolby Digital signal is input. memo • In the AUTO setting , SIGNAL SELECT chooses the signal in the following order: DIGITAL, ANALOG. • If the Digital-In Select (see page 29) choices are set to OFF, the SIGNAL SELECT will default to ANALOG. • Because the audio from a karaoke microphone and LD recorded with analog audio only is not output from the digital output, set SIGNAL SELECT to ANALOG. • This receiver can only playback Dolby Digital, PCM (32kHz, 44kHz, 48kHz, and 96kHz), and DTS digital signal formats. If you have some equipment that outputs digital audio in a format other than these you'll have to connect and playback via the receiver's analog inputs (make sure that SIGNAL SELECT is set to ANALOG). • When an LD or CD with DTS is played back with the SIGNAL SELECT set in ANALOG, digital noise caused by playing back the DTS directly (with no decoding) is output. To prevent noise, you need to make digital connections (See pages 13 and 14) and set SIGNAL SELECT to DIGITAL or AUTO. • Some DVD players don't output DTS signals. For more details, refer to the instruction manual supplied with your DVD player. • The levels between analog and digital sources may vary so be careful with volume levels when switching between these two. 44
