Professional Calibration EQ graphical output

Symptom Remedy
The reverb characteristics graph
after EQ calibration does not appear
entirely flat.
There are cases where the graph does not appear flat (even when selecting ALL CH ADJ
in the Auto MCACC Setup) due to adjustments made to compensate for room character-
istics to achieve optimal sound.
Areas of the graph may appear identical (before and after) when there is little or no
adjustment needed.
The graph may appear to have shifted vertically when comparing before and after mea-
surements.
EQ adjustments made using the
Manual MCACC setup do not appear
to change the reverb characteristics
graph after EQ calibration.
Despite level adjustments being made, the filters used for analysis may not display these
adjustments in the reverb characteristics graph after EQ calibration. However, these
adjustments are taken into account by the filters dedicated to overall system calibration.
Lower frequency response curves do
not seem to have been calibrated for
SMALL speakers.
Low frequencies used in bass management (the subwoofer channel) will not change for
speakers that have been specified as SMALL in the configuration, or do not output these
frequencies.
Calibration is performed, but due to your speakers’ low frequency limitations, no measur-
able sound is output for display.

Display

Symptom Remedy
The display is dark or off. Press DIMMER repeatedly to select a different brightness.
The OSD screen is not displayed. The on-screen display is not displayed unless this receiver’s HDMI OUT terminal is con-
nected to the TV by HDMI cable. If the TV does not support HDMI, watch this receiver’s
front panel display when performing operations and making settings.
When the input is a 3D signal, OSD cannot be displayed.
Even through the input is switched,
DIGITAL does not light.
Check the digital connections and make sure that the digital inputs are assigned cor-
rectly (see The Input Setup menu on page 59 ).
When playing Dolby Digital or DTS
sources, the receiver’s format indica-
tors do not light.
Check that the player isn’t set up so that Dolby Digital and DTS sources are converted to
PCM.
Ensure that if there are several audio tracks on the disc, the Dolby Digital or DTS is
selected.
When AUTO is set with the Auto
Phase Control Plus feature, ‘---’ is
displayed.
There are disks that cannot be adjusted using AUTO. Please adjust manually (page 85 ).

Remote control

Symptom Remedy
Cannot be remote controlled. Set the remote control unit’s remote control mode so that it matches the setting on the
main unit (see Operating multiple receivers on page 93 ).
Check whether the receiver’s remote control mode is properly set (see Remote Control
Mode Setup on page 110 ).
Try replacing the batteries in the remote control (see Loading the batteries on page 10 ).
Be sure to operate within 7 m and a 30º angle of the remote sensor on the front panel
(see Operating range of remote control unit on page 10 ).
Check that there are no obstacles between the receiver and the remote control.
Make sure that there is no fluorescent or other strong light shining on to the remote
sensor.
Excluding VSX-830: Other compo-
nents can’t be operated with the
system remote.
If the battery ran down, the preset codes may have been cleared. Re-enter the preset
codes.
The preset code may be incorrect. Redo the procedure for entering preset codes.
When commands from the remote control units of other devices are registered using the
learning function, in some cases they may not be learned properly. In this case, register
the commands again using the learning function (see page 94 ). If they still do not work,
they may be in a special format that cannot be registered on this receiver’s remote con-
trol. Operate the device using another remote control.
