When operating the remote control unit:
AUTO (All auto mode) :
In this mode, the types of signals being input to the
digital and analog input terminals for the selected input
source are detected and the program in the AVR-
5805CI’s surround decoder is selected automatically
upon playback. This mode can be selected for all input
sources other than PHONO and TUNER.
The presence or absence of digital signals is detected,
the signals input to the digital input terminals 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 terminals are selected.
Use this mode to play Dolby Digital signals.
Input mode
• The AVR-5805CI has an AUTO signal detection mode that
automatically identifies the type of incoming audio signals,
but is also equipped with a manual mode that can be
switched according to the type of input audio signals.
DTS (exclusive DTS signal playback mode) :
Decoding and playback are only performed when DTS
signals are being input.
PCM (exclusive PCM signal playback mode) :
Decoding and playback are only performed when PCM
signals are being input.
Note that noise may be generated when using this
mode to play signals other than PCM signals.
