[. . . ] Once the LOCK setting is engaged and you exit SETUP MENU 3, no changes may be made to any of the Setup menus. To make changes to these menus you must return to SETUP MENU 3 and use the < or > buttons i on the remote until UNLOCK is highlighted. When the LOCK setting is engaged, the word LOCK will appear at the top of the menus to remind you that no changes may be made. At this point, unless you wish to make changes to the Multiroom system, press the ¤ button i twice and then press Select j to RETURN TO THE MAIN MENU. Setup and operation of the Multiroom system is described on page 32 of this manual. System Configuration 20 At this point you may wish to adjust the delay time settings, although it is best to use the factory settings for initial listening sessions. See the Advanced Features section later in this manual for information on delay settings. The remaining item to be adjusted before normal use of the AVR85 is adjustment of the output levels. Correct adjustment of these settings is critical to proper operation of the receiver in all surround modes, and particularly when Dolby Digital sources are being played. To set the output levels press the Select button j to call up the main menu (see figure #1)if it is not already on the screen, and then press the the ¤ button i until the on-screen cursor is pointing to TEST TONE. When you press Select you will immediately hear a test noise from the front right speaker. The on-screen display will change to a graphic representation of each of the speakers in your room, with one speaker position blinking (see figure #5). That speaker is the one whose level is being set. Note: This procedure will only operate if the AVR85 is in the PRO LOGIC, AC3, MOVIE or DOLBY 3 STEREO modes. If the test tone cannot be selected, check to see which surround mode is indicated in the front panel display. If it is not one of the modes mentioned above, select one of the correct modes using the Mode Selectors y, and then move the cursor to test tone to restart the procedure. While seated in the primary listening position, you should hear a test noise signal from the left front speaker. You may leave the volume setting where it is, or raise it to an appropriate level using the Speaker Adjust / or ¤ buttons n on the remote. For a more precise calibration, we recommend that you use a sound pressure level meter. Note that the sound should now come from the Center Channel speaker, and the icon for that speaker will flash on the screen. Use the Speaker Adjust / or ¤ buttons n on the remote to change the level of the test noise so that it appears to be equal in level to the Front Left speaker. 19. Press the > button again, and repeat the procedure for the Front Right, Surround Right, Surround Left and Subwoofer channels. Each time, use the Speaker Adjust / or ¤ buttons n on the remote to change the volume level so that all speakers match, and the > button i to move to the next channel. Note: This test also serves as an opportunity to verify that all speakers are properly connected. [. . . ] If the multiroom volume has been set to FIXED the volume or source may not be changed. The AVR85's tuner has been selected as the multiroom source you may tune stations or search presets using a Harman Kardon compatible remote. If Harman Kardon compatible components are connected to the AVR85's rear panel Remote Control Output jack d the remote may also be used to control CD players and cassette decks. 4. NOTE: The multiroom system may also be operated from the remote control in either the main room or the remote location through the MULTI ROOM SELECTOR function accessed through the on-screen menu system.
