Note:
The digital optical output socket is fitted with a protective plug that must be removed before use.
18 AV2 Detailed Setup
Once all the desired input and output connections are
made should the AV2 setup procedure be initiated.
Although the AV2 can be set up and controlled from
its front panel, many parameters are best set from
the primary listening and viewing position, so setup
from the NARCOM AV or NARCOM DV handset is
recommended. It is important however that the AV2
front panel is visible during setup because its display
provides feedback of control parameters. This is of
less importance if a DVD5 is connected as on-screen
display of setup parameters will then be available.
Note:
Flash remote handsets running Version 2 software can also
be used to control the AV2. For information on Flash software
updates please contact your local Naim Audio representative.
When initially powered up from the switch on the rear panel the
AV2 will, after a short delay as internal house-keeping is carried
out, be in Standby mode. Standby is indicated by an illuminated
Naim logo and a single dot indicator on the display. To wake
the AV2 press the handset
standby
key (
standby
standby
front panel:
press and
hold
input
or
mode
buttons). The AV2 will wake up in either the
default state, if it is previously unused, or in the state in which it
was last shut down.
There are two independent setup pages; each with a setup
routine to be executed: Input Setup and Speaker Setup. Input
Setup, which defines the type of source component connected
to each input, should be carried out first. Speaker Setup enables
various parameters and options for each speaker channel to be
set.
Note:
Some speaker setup parameters are dependent on the
selected AV2 input so setup may be simplified if the AV2 is
initially returned to its setup defaults. To restore the default values
separately in either setup “page” press and hold the handset disp
key while the AV2 is in the desired setup mode. The display flashes
once to confirm.
To restore the default values
simultaneously across both setup
pages press and hold the handset
disp key while the AV2 is in
normal mode. The mode button
will flash, three bars appear in the
display, and after a short delay the
AV2 will re-awake in input setup
mode. The factory default settings
are shown in Section 21.
Note:
The AV2 will drop out of
either setup mode after 5 minutes
if no keys or buttons are operated.
Note:
It may help during setup
to refer to the “quick setup”
diagrams in Section 15.
18.1 Input Setup Routine
The first AV2 setup page and routine defines the type of source
equipment connected to each input and enables a remote
control input function to be selected. To switch the AV2 into
Input Setup mode press the menu key followed by the
i/p
5
key
(
front panel:
press and hold
input
button).
The complete list of source component display options available
is as follows:
DVD
(DVD video/audio),
LD
(laser disc),
TV
(television),
SAT
(satellite),
CAB
(cable service),
HDR
(hard disk
recorder),
VCR
(video cassette),
GM
(game console),
PC
(personal
computer),
PRE
(audio preamp),
CD
(compact disc),
CDR
(compact
disc recorder),
TUN
(tuner),
DAB
(digital tuner),
MD
(mini disc),
DAT
(digital audio tape),
TAP
(audio tape)
AUX
(auxiliary),
DVA
(DVD
audio)
SCD
(super audio compact disc).
The following order of setup steps is arbitrary. It is possible to
move between setup steps by pressing
2
5
or
8
6
(
front panel:
mode
or
input
buttons).
18.1.1 Input V1
The AV2 display will show
VI1
on the left hand side and
6CH
,
8CH
,
---
,
AN1
or one of twenty possible source component types on the
right hand side.
VI1
refers to Versatile Analogue Input 1 and the
right hand options to the type of source component connected
to the input.
---
denotes an input set as unused. The
6CH
and
8CH
options re-configure the DIN socket input connectors 1 and 2
to offer a combined set of analogue inputs routed direct to the
AV2 output volume control and output channels. Use the
3
4
or
6
4
keys (
front panel:
rotate
rotary
control) to select the option
appropriate for the source component connected to the input(s).
Move to the next step by pressing
8
6
(
front panel:
mode
button).
Note:
If you wish not to specify a specific source component for
any input, the right hand side of the display can either be left at
its default setting, or be set to “unused” by selecting ---. Inputs
set to --- will not appear for selection when in the AV2 is used in
operational mode.
