Configuration de base

Désactivation du mode d’affichage de

démonstration

Diverses informations (de démonstration) s’affichent sur le
panneau avant lorsque le récepteur ne fonctionne pas.
Il est possible de désactiver ce mode d’affichage. Pour plus
de détails, voir la section Le menu FL Demo Mode à la
page 33.
• Le mode démo est annulé automatiquement lorsque la
configuration Auto MCACC est effectué (voir ci-dessous).

Configuration automatique du son surround

(MCACC)

Le système de calibrage acoustique multicanaux (Multi-
Channel Acoustic Calibration, MCACC) mesure les
caractéristiques acoustiques de votre position d’écoute en
tenant compte du bruit ambiant, de la taille et de la distance
des enceintes et des tests sur le retard et le niveau de canal.
Une fois que vous avez installé le microphone fourni avec
votre système, le récepteur utilise les informations provenant
d’une série de tonalités de test afin d’optimiser les réglages
d’enceinte et l’égalisation pour une pièce spécifique.
ATTENTION
• Les tonalités de test utilisées dans la configuration
MCACC automatique sont générées à un volume élevé.
Important
• L’affichage à l’écran n’apparaît pas si vous avez effectué
la connexion au téléviseur via la sortie HDMI. Utilisez les
connexions composant ou composites pour configurer le
système.
La configuration MCACC automatique remplace tous les
réglages précédemment effectués pour les enceintes.
• Si vous avez raccordé les enceintes surround arrière ou
les enceintes surround avant-haut, vérifiez que le
paramètre Pre Out est correctement réglé avant
d’exécuter la configuration automatique MCACC (voir
page 33). (Voici un exemple expliquant l’utilisation de
l’affichage OSD lorsque des enceintes surround arrière
sont connectées.)
1
Allumez le récepteur et votre téléviseur.
2
Commutez l’entrée du téléviseur sur l’entrée qui
connecte ce récepteur au téléviseur via le câble
correspondant vidéo composite ou en composantes.
3
Connectez le microphone à la prise MCACC SETUP MIC
sur le panneau avant.
Assurez-vous qu’il n’y a pas d’obstacles entre les enceintes et
le microphone.
Si vous avez un trépied, utilisez-le pour y placer le
microphone afin qu’il soit au niveau des oreilles à votre
position d’écoute normale. Sinon, placez le microphone au
niveau des oreilles en utilisant une table ou une chaise.
4
Appuyez sur la touche de la télécommande,
puis sur la touche SETUP.
Le menu de configuration du système s’affiche sur le
téléviseur. Utilisez les touches /// et ENTER de la
télécommande pour naviguer dans les écrans et sélectionner
des options de menu. Appuyez sur la touche RETURN pour
sortir du menu actuel.
Appuyez sur la touche SETUP à tout moment pour sortir
du menu System Setup. Si vous annulez la configuration
MCACC automatique à n’importe quel moment, le
récepteur abandonne la configuration automatiquement
et aucun réglage n’est enregistré.
• L’économiseur d’écran démarre automatiquement au
bout de trois minutes d’inactivité.
5
Sélectionnez ‘Auto MCACC’ dans le System Setup, puis
appuyez sur ENTER.
MIC IN clignote lorsque le microphone n’est pas
raccordé à la prise MCACC SETUP MIC.
Veillez à faire le moins de bruit possible après avoir appuyé
sur ENTER. Le système émet une série de tonalités de test
pour établir le niveau de bruit ambiant.
6
Suivez les instructions à l’écran.
Assurez-vous que le microphone est connecté.
• Vérifiez que le caisson de basses est allumé et que le
volume est monté.
• Lorsque vous utilisez les enceintes surround arrière ou
surround avant-haut, mettez sous tension l’amplificateur
auquel les enceintes surround arrière ou surround avant-
haut sont connectées, et ajustez le volume au niveau
désiré.
Consultez les remarques ci-dessous relatives au bruit de
fond et aux autres interférences possibles.
7
Attendez que les tonalités de test ne retentissent plus.
Un rapport de progression est affiché à l’écran pendant que
le récepteur émet des tonalités de test afin de déterminer la
présence des enceintes dans votre configuration. Essayez de
rester aussi silencieux que possible pendant cette opération.

Hi, I have a question. I connected the receiver to the TV via HDMI-1, and when I turn off the TV or unplug the receiver, the receiver also turns off and doesn't turn back on unless I reconnect it to the TV. Thank you very much in advance for your response, it's very important.
