OPERATION

Tune to Channel 0 for a display of your antenna module’s Radio ID
number, required for activation.

The current channel number and preset location will appear in the upper
line of the Message Display, and the channel’s name will appear in the
lower line. Three signal-strength bars will appear to the right of the
channel number and preset location. Press the Tuning Mode Button
repeatedly to display the category, current artist or song title.

For traffic and weather channels, the current city’s name will appear
instead of the channel name, and pressing the Tuning Mode Button
repeatedly will display the local weather and temperature.

Press the Set Button to search all channels. Press it again to search by
category, using the

⁄

Buttons to change the category and then

pressing the Set Button to tune the first available channel in the new
category. Press the Set Button again to change the preset bank, using
the

⁄

Buttons to change the bank letter. Press the Set Button

again to return to the all-channel search.

To store a channel in one of the 40 preset locations:

1. Press the Set Button repeatedly until PRESET SEARCH appears, then

use the

⁄

Buttons until the desired bank of presets (A through E)

appears in the upper line of the message display.

2. Press the Memory Button, and a line will appear next to the preset

bank letter.

3. Use the Numeric Keys to enter the preset location (1 through 8) you

wish to store the channel in.

Recording

Two-channel analog and digital audio signals, as well as composite
and S-video signals, are normally available at the appropriate recording
outputs. Thus, to make a recording, you need only make sure to con-
nect your audio or video recorder to the appropriate output jacks, as
described in the Installation section, insert blank media and make sure
the recorder is turned on and recording while the source is playing.

NOTES:

1. Analog audio signals are not converted to digital form, and

digital audio signals are not converted to analog audio form.
However, you may record a coaxial or optical digital audio
source using either type of digital audio output.

2. Only PCM digital audio signals are available for recording.

Proprietary formats such as Dolby Digital and DTS may not
be recorded using the digital audio connections, although if
the source is connected to the AVR using the analog audio
connections, an analog recording may be made.

3. Component video and HDMI sources are not available for

recording.

4. Please make certain that you are aware of any copyright

restrictions on any material you record. Unauthorized duplica-
tion of copyrighted materials is prohibited by federal law.

Using

The Bridge is an optional dock that may be used with a compatible iPod
(not included). When The Bridge is connected to its proprietary input on
the AVR 347 and the iPod is docked, you may play the audio, video
and still-image materials on your iPod through your high-quality audio/
video system, operate the iPod using the AVR remote or the AVR’s
front-panel controls, view navigation messages on the AVR’s front panel
or a connected video display, and charge the iPod.

Either press the front-panel Source Selector repeatedly until the mes-
sage “DMP/The Bridge is CONNECTED” scrolls across the front panel
and appears in the semi-OSD display, or press the DMP Button on the
remote to select The Bridge as the input source.

When an iPod is docked in The Bridge, the screen shown in Figure 79
will appear on a video display connected to the AVR. Navigate The
Bridge’s screens by using the

‹

›

Buttons to highlight a line and

pressing the Set Button to select the line. The

›

Button scrolls down,

and the

‹

Button scrolls up. Press the Menu Button to return to the

previous level of The Bridge’s menu system. Remember to set the
remote in The Bridge device mode by pressing the Tape/The Bridge
Button. If it lights in red, press it again quickly so that it lights in green,
indicating it is in The Bridge mode.

MUSIC:

This line allows you to navigate the audio materials stored on

your iPod.

PHOTOS/VIDEOS:

Selecting this item allows you to play still images or

videos stored on the iPod. The screen shown in Figure 80 will appear,
directing you to operate the iPod’s own controls directly to play images
and videos. You may use the AVR 347 remote instead of the iPod’s
controls to navigate it. Visual materials will be displayed on a video
display connected to the AVR.

NOTE:

After selecting video/photo viewing, the AVR may remain

in iPod Manual Mode, even after undocking the iPod or switching
to another source input and back again. To return to normal
operation, with the AVR remote in The Bridge mode, press and
hold the Menu Button.
