User manual HARMAN KARDON AVR 254

[. . . ] AVR 254 AUDIO/VIDEO RECEIVER OWNER'S MANUAL SAFETY INFORMATION Important Safety Instructions Read these instructions. The A/V receiver's cabinet may be cleaned by gently wiping with a soft cotton or microfiber cloth. Do not use water or any liquid cleaners. Do not block any of the ventilation openings. [. . . ] The PAL format is used in parts of 36 INITIAL SETUP Europe and elsewhere. The AVR 254 is capable of detecting PAL video sources and converting them to the NTSC format for display on American televisions. Adjust Lip Sync: Use this adjustment to resynchronize the audio and video signals from a source to eliminate a "lip sync" problem. Lip sync issues can occur when the video portion of a signal undergoes additional processing in either the source or the video display that desynchronizes it from the audio. Select this line to display the Lip Sync adjuster by itself, enabling you to view the video while listening to the audio. Use the < / > Buttons to delay the audio by up to 180ms. Use the Back/Exit Button to exit, then return to the Setup Source line of the Main Menu and select the next source to configure. When you have finished configuring all sources, press the Back/Exit Button to clear the menus from view. You are now ready to begin enjoying your new receiver! Figure 51 ­ Adjust Lip Sync Change Name: Use this line to change the display name for your source. This can be useful if your source's device type is different from the available source names. Select this line and use the // ¤ Buttons to scroll forward or reverse through the letters A through Z and the numbers 0 through 9. When the desired character appears, use the > Button to move the cursor to the next position. Move the cursor again to leave a blank space. When you have finished entering the new name, press the OK Button. The name will be used on the front panel to refer to the source, and will appear next to its original name, e. g. DVD, throughout the on-screen menu system. To clear the entry without making any changes, scroll to the blank character between "9" and "A". Audio Auto Polling: Use this setting when both analog and digital audio connections are made from the source device to the AVR. When no digital signal is present, the AVR will automatically switch to the analog audio input. This can be useful for some older cable television systems that broadcast some channels in analog audio and others in digital audio. It is also useful for making analog recordings of copy-protected digital sources, and for multichannel disc players that decode high-resolution multichannel audio and output it through their multichannel analog audio outputs. However, it can be inconvenient when no analog audio connection is made and playback is stopped, as the audio signal will be lost.
