On-Screen Menus
The AVR85’s on-screen menu system pro-
vides both a window into the operation of
the unit and a means of easily adjusting
many system parameters. In addition to
their use in the setup and configuration
of the AVR85, the menu system provides
an easy means of operating the unit.
To activate the On-Screen display system,
press the OSD button k on the remote
for three seconds. This will cause a status
summary display to be shown on the
screen for ten seconds (see figure #6).
Once the video displays are enabled, this
status screen will also appear when the
unit is turned on.
Note: In order to view the on-screen
menu displays the receiver must be con-
nected to the standard, composite video
input of a TV monitor or projector. The
on-screen displays are NOT visible via the
S-Video output.
The status screen displays the following
information:
AUDIO SOURCE: This is the input
currently selected for audio.
VIDEO SOURCE: This is the input
currently selected for video.
TAPE MONITOR: If “ON” is
displayed in this line the output
of the AVR85 is the tape recorder
connected to the Tape1 Inputs §
rather than the actual source. This
function is used to monitor a
recording in progress.
DIGITAL INPUT: If a
digital audio source is selected, it
is displayed here.
MODE: This is the currently selected
audio/surround mode.
MULTI-ROOM: This is the source
currently selected for listening in
remote room locations.
MASTER VOLUME: This is the cur-
rent volume. The scale uses double ver-
tical bars
±
to indicate the volume level,
while single horizontal dashes
-
indi-
cate additional range available for
increased volume. The “0dB” reference
point is shown by a solid block
Í
.
Function Displays and Messages
Once the On-Screen Displays have been
activated, they appear when certain
functions are performed from the front
panel buttons or the remote control.
These messages display the current
function shown on the top line and
information about the selection or
choice on the bottom line.
The following function/operation display
screens are available:
