Turn On Volume Level
As is the case with most audio/video receivers,
when the DPR is turned on, it will always return
to the volume setting in effect when the unit was
turned off. However, you may prefer to always
have the DPR turn on at a specific setting,
regardless of what was last in use when the unit
was turned off. To change the default condition
so that the same volume level is always used at
turn-on, you will need to make an adjustment in
the
ADVANCED SELECT
menu. To start the
adjustment, press the
OSD
button
L
to bring
the
MASTER MENU
(Figure 1) to the screen.
Press the
⁄
button
E
, until the on-screen
›
cursor is next to the
ADVANCED
line. Press
the
Set
button
F
to enter the
ADVANCED
SELECT
menu (Figure 12).
At the
ADVANCED SELECT
menu make
certain that the on-screen
›
cursor is next to the
VOLUME DEFAULT
line by pressing the

as needed. Next, press the

button
E
so that the word
O N
is highlighted
in the video display. Next, press the

button
E
once so that the on-screen

line. To set the
desired turn-on volume, press the
‹

buttons
E
or hold them pressed until the desired vol-
ume level is shown on the
DEFAULT VOL
SET
line. Note that this setting may NOT be
made with the regular volume controls.
NOTE
: Since the setting for the turn-on volume
cannot be heard while the setting is being made,
you may wish to determine the setting before
making the adjustment. To do this, listen to any
source and adjust the volume to the desired level
using the regular volume controls
)
î
. When
the desired volume level to be used at turn-on is
reached, make a note of the setting as it appears
in the lower third of the video screen or in the
Main Information Display
˜
.
A typical volume level will appear as a negative
number such as -25dB. When making the
adjustment, use the
‹

to enter
this setting.
Unlike some of the other adjustments in this
menu, the turn-on volume default will remain in
effect even when the unit is turned off comple-
tely, unless it is changed or turned off in this
menu.
If you wish to make other adjustments in the
menu, press the

Semi-OSD Settings
The semi-OSD system places one line messages
at the lower third of the video display screen
whenever the Volume, Input Source, Surround
mode or tuner frequency of any of the configura-
tion settings are changed. The semi-OSD system
is helpful in that enables you to have feedback
on any control changes or remote commands
using the video display when it is difficult to view
the front-panel displays. However, you may occa-
sionally prefer to turn these displays off for a par-
ticular listening session. You may also want to
adjust the length of time the displays remain on
the screen. Both of those options are possible
with the DPR.
To turn off the semi-OSD system, you will need to
make an adjustment in the
ADVANCED
SELECT
menu (Figure 12). To start the adjust-
ment, press the
OSD
button
L
to bring the
MASTER MENU
to the screen. Press the
⁄
Button
E
, until the on-screen
›
cursor is next
to the
ADVANCED
line. Press the
Set
Button
F
to enter the
ADVANCED SELECT
menu.
At the
ADVANCED SELECT
menu make
certain that the on-screen
›
cursor is next to the
SEMI OSD
line by pressing the
⁄
/
¤
buttons
E
as needed. Next, press the
›
button
E
so
that the word
OFF
is highlighted in the video
display.
Note that this setting is temporary and will
remain active only until it is changed or until the
DPR is turned off. Once the unit is turned off, the
semi-OSD displays will remain activated, even if
they were switched off for the previous listening
session.
To change the length of time that the semi-OSD
displays remain on the screen, go to the
ADVANCED SELECT
Menu as outlined
earlier, and press the
⁄
/
¤
buttons
E
as need-
ed, until the on-screen
›
cursor is next to the
SEMI-OSD TIME OUT
line. Next, press
the
‹
/
›
Buttons
E
until the desired time in
seconds is displayed. Note that unlike most of the
other options in this menu, this is a permanent
setting change, and the time-out entry will
remain in effect until it is changed, even when
the unit is turned off.
If you wish to make other adjustments in the
menu, press the
⁄

Buttons

until the on-
screen

cursor is next to the desired setting or
the
BACK T O MASTER MENU
line and
press the
Set
button

. If you have no other
adjustments to make, press the
OSD
Button

to exit the menu system.
Full-OSD Time Out Adjustment
The
FULL OSD
menu system is used to
simplify the setup and adjustment of the DPR
using a series of on-screen menus. The factory
default setting for these menus leaves them on
the screen for 20 seconds after a period of inac-
tivity before they disappear from the screen or
Time Out. This Time Out is a safety measure to
prevent the menu text from burning into the CRTs
in your monitor or projector, which might happen
if they were left on indefinitely. However, some
viewers may prefer a slightly longer or shorter
period before the Time Out display.
To change the Full-OSD Time Out, you will need
to make an adjustment in the
ADVANCED
SELECT
menu (Figure 12). To start the adjust-
ment, press the
OSD
button
L
to bring the
MASTER MENU
to the screen. Press the
⁄
button
E
, until the on-screen
¤
cursor is next
to the
ADVANCED
line. Press the
Set
Button
F
to enter the
ADVANCED SELECT
menu (Figure 12).
At the
ADVANCED SELECT
menu make
certain that the on-screen
›
cursor is next to the
FULL OSD TIME OUT
line by pressing the
⁄

Buttons

as needed. Next, press the

buttons
E
until the desired time is dis-
played in seconds. Note that unlike most of the
other options in this menu, this is a permanent
setting change, and the time-out entry will
remain in effect until it is changed, even when
the unit is turned off.
If you wish to make other adjustments in the
