Forthis reason, when DTS-encoded software is played back through theanalog outputs of the CD, LD, or DVD player, excessive noise will beexhibited. To avoid possible damage to the audio system, properprecautions should be taken by the consumer if the analog outputsare connected directly to an amplification system. To enjoy DTSDigital Surround™ playback, an external 5.1 channel DTS DigitalSurround™ decoder system must be connected to the digital output(S/P DIF, AES/EBU, or TosLink) of the CD, LD or DVD player.This unit is equipped with DTS Digital Surround TM decoder.Notes1.

These cables are usually packed together with thesource unit, or are available at your local electronics retailer.Microcomputer malfunctionIf operation is not possible or an erroneous display appears, eventhough all connections have been made properly, reset the micro-computer referring to “In case of difficulty”. wFor countries other than U.S.A., U.S.-Military and CanadaCAUTIONBe sure to adhere to the following, or proper ventilation will beblocked causing damage or fire hazard.• Install the R-SH7 on the top of the system.• Do not place any objects impairing heat radiation onto the top of theunit.• Leave some space around the unit (from the largest outsidedimension including projection) equal to or greater than, shownbelow.Top panel : 50 cm Side panel : 10 cm Back panel : 10 cmFor the U.S.A., U.S.-Military and CanadaCAUTIONBe sure to adhere to the following, or proper ventilation will beblocked causing damage or fire hazard.• Do not place any objects impairing heat radiation onto the top of theunit.• Leave some space around the unit (from the largest outsidedimension including projection) equal to or greater than, shownbelow.Top panel : 50 cm Side panel : 10 cm Back panel : 10 cmSetting up the system Input mode settingsCD/DVD, VIDEO2, VIDEO3 and DVD/6ch inputs each include jacksfor digital audio input and analog audio input.You must select beforehand which type of input is to be used for eachconnected component.The initial factory settings for audio signal playback (CD/DVD,DVD/6ch) and (VIDEO2, VIDEO3) are digital and analog respec-tively.To use the analog audio input for playback instead (if, for example, youhave connected a VCR to the VIDEO2 or VIDEO3 input), you must setthe input mode for the corresponding input to the analog mode.After completing connections and turning on the receiver, follow thesteps below.INPUT MODEInput Selector1 Use the Input Selector keys to select CD/DVD, VIDEO2, VIDEO3or DVD/6CH.2 Press the INPUT MODE key.Each press switches the setting as follows:In DTS play mode1 FULL AUTO (digital input, auto detect)2 DIGITAL MANUAL (digital input, manual sound)In DVD/6ch play mode1 FULL AUTO (digital input, auto detect)2 DIGITAL MANUAL (digital input, manual sound)3 6CH INPUT (DVD/6ch input)4 ANALOG (analog input, manual detect)In modes other than DTS or DVD/6ch play mode1 FULL AUTO (digital input, auto detect)2 DIGITAL MANUAL (digital input, manual sound)3 ANALOG (analog input, manual sound)Digital input:Select this setting to play digital signals from a DVD, CD, or LDplayer.Analog input:Select this setting to play analog signals from a cassette deck, VCR,or record player.Auto detect:In the auto detect mode (AUTO DETECT indicator lights), thereceiver selects the listening mode automatically during playback tomatch the type of input signal (Dolby Digital, PCM, DTS ) and thespeaker setting. The OPTICAL and COAXIAL indicator on the displaywill light up when digital signal is detected. If the input signal isanalog, the ANALOG indicator will light up. The initial factory settingis auto detect on.To keep the receiver set to the currently selected listening mode,use the INPUT MODE key to select “DIGITAL MANUAL” (manualsound). However, even when this setting is selected, there may becases in which the listening mode is selected automatically tomatch a Dolby Digital source signal depending on the combinationof listening mode and source signal.If the INPUT MODE key is pressed quickly, sound may not beproduced.•VR609/01-09/EN new 10/24/01, 10:33 PM9
