Installation and Connections

System Installation

Afterunpackingtheunit,and placingit ona solidsurfacecapableof supportingitsweight,youwillneedto maketheconnectionsto youraudioandvideoequipment.

Audio Equipment ConnectionsWerecommendthat you usehigh-qualityinter-connectcableswhenmakingconnectionstosourceequipmentand recordersto preservetheintegrityof the signals.

Whenmakingconnectionsto audio sourceequipmentor speakersit is alwaysa good prac-tice to unplug the unit fromthe ACwall outlet.Thispreventsanypossibilityof accidentallysendingaudio or transientsignalsto the speak-ers that maydamagethem.

1. Connectthe analogoutput of a CDplayertothe CD inputsQ.

NOTE:When the CDplayerhasboth fixedandvariableaudio outputsit is best to use thefixed

output unlessyou find that the inputto thereceiveris so low that the sound is noisy,or so

high that the signal is distorted.

2. Connectthe analogPlay/Outjacks of a cas-sette deck,MD,CD-Ror otheraudio recorderto

the Tape Input jacks I_t. Connectthe analogRecord/Injacks on the recorderto the TapeOutput jacks O on the AVR110.

3. Connectthe output of anydigital sourcesto the appropriateinput connectionson theAVR110 rear panel. Note that the Optical

and Coaxial Digital Inputs _i_li'_ maybe usedwith a DolbyDigital or DTSsourceorthe output of a conventionalCDor LDplayer'sPCM (S/P-DIF)output.

4. ConnecttheCoaxial or Optical DigitalOutputsI_ on the rearpaneloftheAVR110tothematchingdigital inputconnectionsona CD-Ror MiniDiscrecoldel.

5. AssembletheAM LoopAntennasuppliedwith the unit asshownbelow.Connectit to the

AM and 6ND screwterminalsO.

6. Connectthe suppliedFMantennato the FM

(75 ohm)connectionO. TheFM antennamaybe anexternalroof antenna,an insidepoweredor wire leadantennaor a connectionfrom a

cableTVsystem.Notethat if the antennaorconnectionuses300-ohmtwindeadcable,youmust usethe 300-ohm-to-75-ohmadaptersup-pliedwith the unit to makethe connection.

7. Connectthe front, centerand surround

speakeroutputs_)_)_ to the respective

speakers.

Toensurethat all the audiosignalsare carriedto your speakerswithout lossof clarityor reso-lution, we suggestthat youusehigh-qualityspeakercable.Manybrandsof cableareavail-ableand the choiceof cablemaybe influencedby the distancebetweenyour speakersand thereceive_,the typeof speakersyouuse,personalpreferencesand otherfactors.Yourdealerorinstalleris a valuableresourceto consultin

selectingthe propercable.

Regardlessof the brandof cableselected,werecommendthat youusea cableconstructedoffine,multistlandcopperwith a gaugeof 14 orsmaller.Rememberthat in specifyingcable,thelower the AWGnumber,thethickerthe cable.

Cablewith a gaugeof 16 maybeusedfor shortrunsof lessthan ten feet.Wedo not recom-

mendthat youusecableswith anAWGequiva-lent of 18or higherdueto the power lossanddegradationin performancethat wilt occur.

Cablesthat are run insidewalls shouldhavethe

appropriatemarkingsto indicatelistingwith ULCSAor otherappropriatetestingagencystan-dards.Questionsabout runningcablesinsidewalls shouldbe referredto your installeror alicensedelectricalcontractorwho is familiar

with the NECand/orthe applicablelocalbuild-ing codesinyour area.

Whenconnectingwiresto the speakers,becer-tain to observeproperpolarity.Remembertoconnectthe "negative" or "black" wire to thesameterminalon both the receiverandthe

speaker.Similarly,the "positive" or "red" wireshouldbeconnectedto like terminalson the

AVR110 andspeakec

NOTE:While mostspeakermanufacturers

adhereto an industryconventionof usingblackterminalsfor negativeand red onesfor positive,somemanufacturersmayvaryfromthis config-uration.Toassureproperphaseandoptimal

performance,consultthe identificationplateonyour speakeror the speaker'smanualto verifypolarity. If youdo not know the polarity of yourspeaker,askyour dealerfor advicebeforepro-ceeding,or consultthe speaker'smanufaeturec

We also recommendthat the length of cableusedto connectspeakerpairsbe identical.Forexample,usethe samelength pieceofcableto connect the frontdeft and front-rightor surrounddeft and surround-right speakers,even if the speakersare a different distancefrom the AVR110.

8. Connectionsto a subwooferare normatiymadevia a line-levelaudio connectionfromthe

2. Measurethe distancefrom the listening/viewing positionto the surroundspeakers.

3. Subtlactthe distanceto the surroundspeak-

Digital Status IndicatorsWhena digital sourceisplaying,theAVR110sensesthe typeof bitstreamdata that is pres-

ent. Usingthis information,the correctsur-round modewilt automaticallybeselected.Forexample,DTSbitstreamswill causethe unit to

sourcesto beselectedmanually.Sincetherangeof availablesurroundmodesis depend-ent on the typeof digital data that is present,theAVR110 usesa varietyof indicatorstolet you know what typeof signal is present.Thiswill helpyou to understandthe choiceof modes.

Whena digital sourceis playing,a BitstreamIndicator [] will light to show whichtype ofsignal is playing:

DOLBY D:Whenthe DOLBYD indicator

lights, a DotbyDigital bitstreamis beingreceived.Dependingon the settingson thesourceplayerandspecificsurroundinformationand numberof channelson the disc,a number

of surroundmodesare possible.Fordiscswith

full 5.1 audio,only the DolbyDigitaland VMAxmodesare available.Whenthe DolbyDigitalsignal is only two-channel,youmayalsoselectfromthe Logic7 Cinema/Music,Hall,Theater,DolbyProLogicor Dolby3 Stereomodes.

DTS: When the DTSindicator lights,a DTSbitstreamis beingreceived.Whenthe unitsensesthis typeof data, only the DTSmodemaybeused.

PCM: When the PCMindicator lights,a stan-

dardPulseCodeModulation,or PCM,signal isbeing received.Thisis thetype of digital audiousedby conventionalcompactdiscand laserdiscrecordings.Whena PCMbitstream is pres-ent, all modesexceptDotbyDigital and DTSareavailable.

MP3: When the MP3indicator lights, a com-

patible MPEGl/Layer 3 digital signal is beingreceived.Thisis the popularaudio format used

by manycomputerprogramsfor recordingcom-pressedaudiofiles.Whenan MP3bitstreamispresent,the soundwilt automaticallybeplayedin the stereo(surroundoff} mode.Thesurroundmodesare not availableduring MP3playback.

In addition to the bitstreamindicators,the

AVR110 featuresa set of uniquechannel-input

indicatorsthat tell you how manychannelsofdigital informationare beingreceivedand/orwhetherthe digital signal is interrupted.

Theseindicatorsare the L/C/R/LS/RS/LFElettersthat are insidethecenter boxesof the

Speaker/Channel Input Indicators [] in

the front panelMain Information Display[]. Whena standardanalogsignal is in use,only the "L" and "R" indicatorswill light, asanalogsignalshaveonly left and right chan-nels,respectively.

Digitalsignals,howevel,mayhavetwo, five orsix separatechannels,dependingon the pro-grammaterial,the method of transmissionandthe way in which it wasencoded.Whena digi-tal signal is playing,the letters in theseindica-tors will light in responseto the specificsignalbeing received.It is importantto notethatalthough DolbyDigital,for example,is referredto as a "5.1" system,not all DolbyDigital DVDs

or programsare encodedfor 5.1.Thus,it issometimesnormalfor a DVDwith a Dotby

Digitalsoundtrackto trigger only the "L" and"R" indicators.

NOTE:ManyDVDdiscsare recordedwith both"5.1" and "2.0" versionsof the samesound-

track.Whenplayinga DVD,alwaysbecertaintocheckthe typeof materialon the disc.Mostdiscsshow this informationin the form of a

listing or icon on the backof the discjacket.Whena discdoesoffermultiple soundtrack

choicesyou mayhaveto makesomeadjust-mentsto your DVDplayer(usuallywith the"AudioSelect"button or in a menuscreenon the disc)to senda full 5.1 feedto the

AVR110. It is also possiblefor the typeof sig-nal feed to changeduringthe courseof a DVDplayback.In somecasesthe previewsof specialmaterialwill only be recordedin 2.0 audio,while the mainfeature is availablein 5.1 audio.

As long asyour DVDplayeris set for 6-channeloutput, theAVR110 will automaticallysense

changesto the bitstreamand channelcountand reflectthem in theseindicators.

Theletters usedbythe Speaker/ChannelInput Indicators [] alsoflash to indicatewhen a bitstreamhasbeeninterrupted.This

will happenwhena digital inputsourceisselectedbeforethe playbackstarts,or whenadigital sourcesuchasa DVDis paused.The

flashingindicatorsremindyou that the play-backhasstoppeddueto the absenceof a

digital signalandnot through anyfault of theAVR110. Thisis normal,and the digital play-backwill resumeoncethe playbackis startedagain.

Night ModeA specialfeatureof DotbyDigital is the Nightmode,which enablesAC-3input sourcesto beplayedbackwith full digital inteltigibiltywhilereducingthe minimumpeaklevelby 1/4to 1/3.Thispreventsabruptlyloud transitionsfrom dis-turbing others,without reducingthe impactofthe digital source.The Night modeis availableonly when DolbyDigitalsignalswith specialdata are being played.

TotakeadvantageoftheAVR110's MP3capa-bilities,simplyconnectthe PCMoutput ofacomputer'ssoundcard or the PCMoutput of aportabledigital audiodeviceto either the rearpanel Digital Inputs _ or the front panelDigital Inputs _J_]. As soonasthe digitalsignal is available,the MP3 BitstreamIndicator [] will light, and the audio willbegin playing.

NOTES:• TheAVR110 is only capableof playingsig-

nalsin the MP3 (MPEGl/Layer 3) format, itis not compatiblewith other computeraudiocodecs.

• Thedigital audio input signalmaybeeitheropticalorcoaxial,but the signalmust be inthe PCMformat. Directconnectionof USBorserialdata outputsis not possible,eventhough the signalsare in the MP3format. Ifyou haveanyquestionsabout the data out-put format fromyour computeror a soundcard, checkwith the device'sowner'smanualorcontact the manufacturer'stechnicalsup-port area.
