Along with the newly designedPWM digital amplifier, this not only reduces signaldegradation caused by digital-to-analog conversionstages; the increased efficiency makes it possible toreduce the DPR’s size and weight without sacrificingperformance.The DPR 2005 is designed to serve as the hub ofyour home entertainment system, providing a varietyof listening options. When playing movies or other pro-gramming from digital formats such as DVD or HDTV,the DPR decodes Dolby* Digital, Dolby Digital EX,DTS®and DTS-ES.®Two-channel stereo and matrixsurround sources benefit from the new Pro Logic IIxtechnology and DTS Neo:6.®A Harman Kardon exclu-sive in receivers is the latest version of Logic 7®tocreate a wider, more enveloping sound field and moredefined surround channel positioning, regardless of thetype of source material. Additional processing optionsinclude MP3 decoding when connected to a compati-ble computer and HDCD®for enhanced CD playback.Advanced technology is also at work even when onlytwo speakers are used. Dolby Virtual Speaker modesand Harman International’s proprietary VMAx®are bothavailable to create enveloping sound fields from thefront left and right speakers, while Dolby Headphonecircuitry creates an amazing sense of openness withheadphones.Along with the many listening options, the DPR 2005offers numerous settings that let you customize thesystem. A Quadruple Crossover bass managementsystem configures each speaker group for a differentcrossover setting, while the assignable, wide bandwidthcomponent video inputs may be linked to any videosource. To further enhance the viewing experience withdigital video sources or advanced digital video dis-plays, the DPR 2005’s A/V Sync Delay feature allowsyou to compensate for the loss of lip sync common inmany video processing systems by delaying the audiosignal independently for each input. An advanced ver-sion of Harman Kardon’s patented EzSet remote com-pletes the package, making it easier than ever to setsystem output levels and to program the remote tooperate virtually any program source.The DPR 2005’s multizone options and a standardZone II remote control make it possible to listen to aseparate source in one room while the main hometheater uses a different source. Thanks to assignablerear surround channel amplifiers, you may create abasic remote listening zone without any additionalequipment. The unit’s Multiroom outputs may also beused to feed an optional, external power amplifier andvolume control. For one-wire multiroom connectivity,the DPR 2005 is A-BUS Ready,®requiring only a sin-gle Category 5/5e cable and an optional remote mod-ule to power remote speakers while controlling volumeand enabling full control over the program source andcompatible IR-controlled devices.Combining state-of-the-art circuitry, digital technologyand proven performance with an elegant design that is compatible with the latest source components andvideo displays, the DPR 2005 represents the culmina-tion of Harman Kardon’s 50-year history of deliveringthe finest sonic performance.For Canadian modelModèle pour les Canadien■All popular digital and matrix surround modes,including Dolby* Digital, Dolby Digital EX,Dolby Pro Logic* IIx, DTS,®DTS-ES®Discreteand Matrix, DTS Neo:6®and DTS 96/24■Harman Kardon’s exclusive Logic 7®processing,along with a choice of either Dolby VirtualSpeaker or VMAx®processing for use whenonly two speakers are available ■Dolby Headphone to create spacious, opensound fields when using headphones■HDCD®decoding for enhanced CD playback,and MP3 decoding for use with compatiblecomputers■High-bandwidth, HDTV-compatible componentvideo inputs may be assigned to any video input■Full bass management for all inputs, includingthe analog direct inputs for DVD-Audio andSACD players, including Quadruple Crossoverand individual settings for each input■A/V Sync delay adjustable for each input delivers perfect lip sync with digital programsor video displays■Front-panel digital audio and analog audio/video jacks may be used as either inputs oroutputs for connection to portable products orvideo game consoles■Extensive Multiroom options, including a standard Zone II remote, assignable rear-channel amplifier channels and A-BUS Ready®capability for listening to a separate source ina remote zone■Easy-to-program  remote with two-line LCD display automatically sets output levels for optimal performanceTMCet appareil numérique de la classe B est conforme à la norme NMB-003 du Canada.Sur les modèles dont la fiche est polarisee:ATTENTION: Pour éviter les chocs électriques, introduire la lame la plus large de la fiche dans la borne correspondante de la prise et pousser jusqu’au fond.This class B digital apparatus complies with CanadianICES-003.For models having a power cord with a polarized plug:CAUTION: To prevent electric shock, match wide blade of plug to wide slot, fully insert.INTRODUCTION  3®,HDCD®,High Definition Compatible Digital®and Pacific Microsonics™are either registered trademarksor trademarks of Pacific Microsonics, Inc., in the United States and/or other countries.

INSTALLATION AND CONNECTIONSSystem InstallationAfter unpacking the unit, locating it in a place with ade-quate ventilation and placing it on a solid surface capableof supporting its weight, you will need to make the con-nections to your audio and video equipment.IMPORTANT NOTE: For your personal safety and toavoid possible damage to your equipment and speakers,it is always good practice to turn off and unplug the DPRand ALL source equipment from the AC output beforemaking any audio or video system connections.Audio Equipment ConnectionsWe recommend that you use high-quality interconnectcables when making connections to source equipmentand recorders to preserve the integrity of the signals.1. Connect the analog output of a CD player to theCD Inputs ‚.NOTE: If your CD player has both fixed and variableaudio outputs, it is best to use the fixed output unlessyou find that the input to the receiver is so low that thesound is noisy, or so high that it is distorted.2. Connect the analog Play/Out jacks of a cassettedeck, MD, CD-R or other audio recorder to the Tape Inputs ¤.Connect the analog Record/Injacks on the recorder to the Tape Outputs ⁄on the DPR 2005.3. Connect the output of any digital audio sourcesuch as such as a CD or DVD changer or player,advanced video game, a digital satellite receiver,HDTV tuner or digital cable set-top box or theoutput of a compatible computer sound card tothe Optical and Coaxial Digital Audio Inputsfl‡HJ.4. Connect the coaxial or optical Digital Audio Outputs°· on the rear panel of the DPR 2005 to thematching digital input connections on a CD-R orMiniDisc recorder.5. Assemble the AM loop antenna supplied with the unitso that the tabs at the bottom of the antenna loopsnap into the holes in the base. Connect it to the AM and GND Screw Terminals .6. Connect the supplied FM antenna to the FM (75-Ohm) Connection .The FM antenna may bean external roof antenna, an inside powered orwire-lead antenna or a connection from a cable TVsystem. If the antenna or connection uses 300-ohm twin-lead cable, you must use an optional300-ohm-to-75-ohm adapter to make the connection.7. Connect the front, center, surround and surroundback speaker outputs efgh to the respectivespeakers.To ensure that all the audio signals are carried to yourspeakers without loss of clarity or resolution, we sug-gest that you use high-quality speaker cable. Manybrands of cable are available and the choice of cablemay be influenced by the distance between yourspeakers and the receiver, the type of speakers youuse, personal preferences and other factors. Your dealer or installer is a valuable resource to consult inselecting the proper cable.Regardless of the brand of cable selected, we recom-mend that you use cable with a gauge of 14 or smaller.Remember that in specifying cable, the lower the number, the thicker the cable.Cable with a gauge of 16 may be used for short runsof less than ten feet. We do not recommend that youuse cables with an AWG equivalent of 18 or higher,due to the power loss and degradation in performancethat will occur.Cables that are run inside walls should have the appro-priate markings to indicate listing with UL, CSA or otherappropriate testing agency standards. Questions aboutrunning cables inside walls should be referred to yourinstaller or a licensed electrician who is familiar with the NEC and/or the applicable building codes in your area.When connecting wires to the speakers, be certain to observe proper polarity. Note that the positive (+)terminal of each speaker connection now carries aspecific color code, as noted on page 8. However,most speakers still use a red terminal for the positiveconnection. Connect the “negative” or “black” wire to the same terminal on both the receiver and thespeaker.NOTE: While most speaker manufacturers adhere toan industry convention of using black terminals fornegative and red ones for positive, some may varyfrom this configuration. To ensure proper phase andoptimal performance, consult the identification plate onyour speaker or the speaker’s manual to verify polarity.If you do not know the polarity of your speaker, askyour dealer for advice before proceeding, or consultthe speaker’s manufacturer.We also recommend that the length of cable usedto connect speaker pairs be identical. For example,use the same length piece of cable to connect thefront-left and front-right or surround-left and sur-round-right speakers, even if the speakers are a different distance from the DPR 2005.8. Connections to a subwoofer are normally made viaa line-level audio connection from the SubwooferOutput ›to the line-level input of a subwooferwith a built-in amplifier. When a passive subwooferis used, the connection first goes to a power ampli-fier, which will be connected to one or more sub-woofer speakers. If you are using a powered sub-woofer that does not have line-level input connec-tions, follow the instructions furnished with thespeaker for connection information.9. If an external multichannel audio source with 5.1outputs such as an external digital processor/decoder, DVD-Audio or SACD player is used,connect the outputs of that device to the 8-Channel Direct Inputs fi.Video Equipment ConnectionsVideo equipment is connected in the same manner as audio components. Again, the use of high-qualityinterconnect cables is recommended to preserve signal quality.1.

You may also learn the codesfor the device connected to any input by followingthe instructions for “Learning Codes” shown onpage 42.4. Connect the composite video or S-Video and ana-log left/right audio outputs of a DVD player to theDVD Input Jacks ¶on the rear panel.5. Connect the optical or coaxial digital audio outputsof a DVD player, satellite receiver, cable box, HDTVtuner or video game to any of the Optical orCoaxial Digital Inputs fl‡HJ.The recom-mended connection for a DVD player is to use aCoaxial digital link connected to the Coaxial DigitalAudio Input 1, but you may change the digital audio input assignment for any source using theIN/OUT SETUP menu as described onpage 21 or the Digital Input Selector Epon the front panel or remote, as described on page 33.NOTE: When connecting a device such as a digitalcable box or other set-top tuner product with a digitalaudio output, we recommend that you connect boththe digital and analog outputs of the product to yourDPR. The audio input polling feature of the DPR willthen be able to make certain that you have a constantaudio feed, since it will automatically switch the audioinput to the analog jacks if the digital feed is interruptedor not available for a particular channel.6. Connect the Video Monitor Output •jacks onthe receiver to the composite or S-Video input ofyour television monitor or video projector.7. If your DVD Player has Y/Pr/Pb analog componentvideo outputs, connect them to the ComponentVideo 1 Inputs i.Although this set of inputs maybe assigned to any of the five video inputs on theDPR 2005, the factory default is for this input to beassigned to the DVD Inputs ¶.Remember tomake a digital audio connection between the DVDplayer and the DPR, with the Coaxial Digital Input 1 flbeing the factory default. For informa-tion on changing the input assignments for either the component video jacks or the DVD player’saudio connection, see page 21.8. If you have other devices with Y/Pr/Pb or RGBcomponent video outputs, connect the sourcedevice to the Component Video 2 Inputs j.The audio connections may be made to the Video4 Inputs ¡™¢§ or the Optical or CoaxialDigital Inputs fl‡HJ.When using either ofthe Component Video Inputs, make certain that theaudio and video inputs are properly configured inthe IN/OUT SETUP menu, as describedon page 21.9. If the component video inputs are used, connectthe Component Video Monitor Outputs ktothe component video inputs of your TV, projector orother display device.10.If you have a camcorder, video game or otheraudio/video device that is connected to the DPRon a temporary, rather than permanent, basis, con-nect the audio, video and digital audio outputs ofthat device to the Front-Panel Inputs HJK.Adevice connectedhere is selected as the Video 5input, and the digital inputs must be assigned tothe Video 5 input. (See page 21 for more informa-tion on input configuration.)Video Connection Notes:•  When the component video jacks are used, the on-screen menus are not visible and you must switchto the standard composite or S-Video input on yourTV to view them. For this reason, we recommendthat you always make a composite or S-Video con-nection between the DPR and your video display,even if all the sources in use have componentvideo outputs.•  The DPR 2005 will accept either standard com-posite, S-Video or Y/Pr/Pb component video sig-nals. However, it will not convert composite or Ssignals to component video. Component or com-posite video signals may only be viewed in theirnative formats.•  We strongly recommend that a composite or S-Video connection be made from any video sourceeven when a component connection is the primaryplayback mode. This enables the DPR to provide afeed to a record output, provided that simultaneouscomposite and component playback are possible.System and Power ConnectionsThe DPR 2005 is designed for flexible use with multi-room systems, external control components andpower amplifiers.Main Room Remote Control ExtensionIf the receiver is placed behind a solid or smokedglass cabinet door, the obstruction may prevent theremote sensor from receiving commands. In thisevent, an optional remote sensor may be used.Connect the output of the remote sensor to theRemote IR Input Vjack.If other components are also prevented from receivingremote commands, only one sensor is needed. Simplyuse this unit’s sensor or a remote eye by running aconnection from the Remote IR Output Wjack tothe Remote IR Input jack on Harman Kardon or othercompatible equipment.Multiroom IR LinkThe remote room IR receiver should be connected tothe Multiroom IR Input Ujack on the DPR 2005’srear panel.If other Harman Kardon compatible source equipmentis part of the main room installation, the Remote IROutputWjack on the rear panel should be connectedto the IR IN jack on source equipment. This will enablethe remote room location to control source equipmentfunctions.NOTE: All remotely controlled components must belinked together in a “daisy chain.”Connect the IR OUTjack of one unit to the IR IN of the next to establishthis chain.Multiroom Audio ConnectionsThe DPR 2005 is equipped with multizone capabilitiesthat allow it to send an audio source to the remotezone that i s different from the one selected for use inthe main room. Please note that this capability appliesto analog inputs from sources such as the DPR’stuner, tape decks or VCRs. If you wish to use a sourcesuch as a DVD or CD player that is normally connectedvia a digital connection, it is necessary to run an analog connection from the source to the DPR or touse the Main Downmix input option, as explained onpage 39.Depending on your system’s requirement, threeoptions are available for audio connection:Option 1: Use high-quality, shielded audio intercon-nect cable from the DPR 2005’s location to theremote room. In the remote room, connect the inter-connect cable to an optioinal external stereo poweramplifier. The amplifier will be connected to the room’sspeakers. At the DPR 2005, plug the audio intercon-nect cables into the Multiroom Audio Outputs ªon the DPR 2005’s rear panel.Option 2: Connect the Multiroom Audio Outputsªon the DPR 2005 to the inputs of an optionalstereo power amplifier. Run high-quality speaker wirefrom the amplifier to the speakers in the remote room.Option 3: Taking advantage of the DPR 2005’s built-in seven-channel amplifier, it is possible to use two ofthe amplifier channels to power speakers in the remoteroom. When using this option you will not be able touse the full 7.1-channel capabilities of the DPR 2005in the main listening room, but you will be able to add another listening room without external poweramplifiers. To use the internal amplifiers to power aremote zone, connect the speakers for the remoteroom location to the Surround Back/MultiroomSpeaker Outputs g.Before using the remote roomyou will need to configure the amplifiers for surroundDPR 2005 OM   3/8/04  1:45 PM  Page 17
18 INSTALLATION AND CONNECTIONSINSTALLATION AND CONNECTIONSoperation by changing a setting (following the instruc-tions shown on page 39) in the MULTI-ROOMSETUP menu.NOTE: For all options, you may connect an optional IRsensor in the remote room to the DPR 2005 via anappropriate cable. Connect the sensor’s cable to theMultiroom IR Input Uon the DPR 2005 and usethe Zone II remote to control the room volume. Alter-natively, you may install an optional volume controlbetween the output of the amplifiers and the speakers.A-BUS®Installation ConnectionsThe DPR 2005 is among the very few receivers avail-able today that offer built-in A-BUS Ready operation.When used with an optional A-BUS keypad or controlmodule, you have all the benefits of remote zoneoperation without the need for an external poweramplifier.To use the DPR 2005 with an approved A-BUS prod-uct, simply connect the keypad or module that is inthe remote room to the DPR 2005 using standardCategory 5 wiring that is properly rated for the in-walluse specific to the installation. Terminate the wiring at the receiver end to a standard RJ-45 connector incompliance with the instructions furnished with the A-BUS module.No further installation or adjustment is needed, as theA-BUS jack on the DPR 2005 routes the signals inand out of the keypad to their proper destination forpower, signal source and control. The output fed to the A-BUS jack is determined by the DPR 2005’smultiroom system and menus.RS-232 ConnectionsThe DPR 2005 is equipped with an RS-232 Port athat may be used for two purposes. When the port isconnected to a compatible, optional, external computer,keypad or control system the DPR 2005 is capable ofbi-directional communications that enable the externalsystem to control the DPR, and for the DPR to reportstatus and handshake data back to the controller. Useof the RS-232 port for this type of control requiresspecific technical knowledge, and we recommend thatany connection and programming for control be madeby a trained installer or technician familiar with theequipment being used.The RS-232 port may also be used as an accesspoint through which the DPR 2005’s operating systemand surround mode memories may be updated viaconnection to a compatible computer. At the time that an upgrade is available, instructions for making theconnection and installing the upgrade will be available through the Product Support area of theHarman Kardon Web site at harmankardon.com.The physical connection to the DPR 2005’s RS-232port is a standard D-SUB 9 connection but to assurecompatible and proper operation, specific softwarecommands and pin wiring schemes may be required.AC Power ConnectionsThis unit is equipped with two accessory AC outlets.They may be used to power accessory devices, butthey should not be used with high-current draw equip-ment such as power amplifiers. The total power drawto each outlet may not exceed 100 watts.The Switched AC Accessory Outlet dis poweredonly when the unit is on. This is recommended fordevices that have a mechanical power switch that maybe left in the “ON” position.NOTE: Many audio and video products go into aStandby mode when they are used with switched out-lets. This type of product may not operate properlywhen used with the switched outlet.The Unswitched AC Accessory Outlet cis powered as long as the DPR is plugged into a powered AC outlet.The DPR 2005 features a removable power cord that allows wires to be run in advance to a complexinstallation so that the unit itself need not be installeduntil it is ready for connection. When all needed connections have been made, connect the AC Power cord to the AC Power Cord Jack b.The DPR 2005 draws significantly more current thanother household devices, such as computers, that useremovable power cords. For that reason, it is importantthat only the cord supplied with the unit (or a directreplacement of identical capacity) be used.Once the power cord is connected, you are almostready to enjoy the DPR 2005’s incredible power and fidelity!18 INSTALLATION AND CONNECTIONSDPR 2005 OM   3/8/04  1:45 PM  Page 18
SYSTEM CONFIGURATION  19SYSTEM CONFIGURATIONWhen all audio, video and system connections havebeen made, there are a few configuration adjustmentsthat must be made. A few minutes spent to correctlyconfigure and calibrate the unit will greatly add to yourlistening experience.Speaker Selection and PlacementThe placement of speakers in a multichannel hometheater system can have a noticeable impact on thequality of sound reproduced.No matter which type or brand of speakers is used,the same model or brand of speaker should be usedfor the left front, center and right front speakers. Thiscreates a seamless front soundstage and eliminatesthe possibility of distracting sonic disturbances thatoccur when a sound moves across mismatchedfront-channel speakers.Speaker PlacementDepending on the type of center channel speakerinuse and your viewing device, place the center speakereither directly above or below your TV, or in the centerbehind a perforated front-projection screen.Once the center channel speaker is installed, positionthe front left and front right speakers so that they areas far away from one another as the center channelspeaker is from the preferred listening position. Ideally,the front channel speakers should be placed so thattheir tweeters are no more than 24" above or belowthe tweeter in the center channel speaker.Depending on the specifics of your room acousticsand the type of speakers in use, you may find thatimaging is improved by moving the left front and rightfront speakers slightly forward of the center channelspeaker. If possible, adjust all front loudspeakers so that they are aimed at ear height when you areseated in the listening position.Using these guidelines, you’ll find that it takes someexperimentation to find the correct location for the frontspeakers in your particular installation. Don’t be afraid tomove things around until the system sounds correct.Optimize your speakers so that audio transitions acrossthe front of the room sound smooth, and that soundsfrom all speakers appear to arrive at the listening posi-tion at the same time (without delay from the centerspeaker compared to the left and right speakers).When the DPR 2005 is used in 5.1-channel opera-tion, the preferred location for surround speakers is onthe side walls of the room, at or slightly behind the lis-tening position. In a 7.1-channel system, both sidesurround and back surround speakers are required.The center of the speaker should face into the room.A) Front-Channel Speaker Installation With Direct-ViewTV Sets or Rear-Screen ProjectorsB) Rear speaker mounting is an alternate location for5.1 systems. It is required for 7.1 operation.The speakers should be located so that the bottom ofthe cabinet is at least two feet higher than the listeners’ears when the listeners are seated in the desired area.Rear surround speakers are required when a full 7.1-channel system is installed, and they may also beused in 5.1 channel systems as an alternative mount-ing position when it is not practical to place the mainsurround speakers on the sides of the room. Speakersmay be placed on a rear wall, behind the listeningposition. As with the side speakers, rear surroundsshould be located so that the bottom of the cabinet isat least two feet higher than the listeners’ ears. Thespeakers should be no more than six feet behind therear of the seating area.If dipole-type speakers are used on either the side orrear walls of the room, please note that if there arearrows on the speakers they should face the front ofthe room for the side speakers, or towards the centerof the wall for the rear speakers.Subwoofers produce nondirectional sound, so theymay be placed almost anywhere in a room. Actualplacement should be based on room size and shapeand the type of subwoofer used. One method of find-ing the optimal location for a subwoofer is to begin byplacing it in the front of the room, about six inchesfrom a wall, or near the front corner of the room.Another method is to temporarily place the subwooferat your normal listening position, and then walkaround the room until you find a spot where the sub-woofer sounds best. Place the subwoofer in that spot.You should also follow the instructions of the sub-woofer’s manufacturer, or you may wish to experi-ment with the best location for a subwoofer in yourlistening room.System SetupOnce the speakers have been placed in the room and connected, the remaining steps in the setupprocess are to assign input and output connections,select a surround mode, program the DPR 2005’sbass management system for the type of speakersused in your system, set the delay times used by the surround sound processor and calibrate the output levels.You are now ready to power up the DPR 2005 tobegin these final adjustments.1. Make certain that the AC power cord is firmlyinserted into the AC Power Cord Jack band plug the cord into an unswitched AC outlet.To maintain the unit’s safety rating, DO NOT substitute the power cord for one with lower current capacity.2. Open the Front-Panel Control Door @bygently pushing in on the lower left or right corner.Locate the Main Power Switch Aand push itin until it latches and the word “OFF” on the topof the switch disappears inside the front panel.Note that the Standby/On Indicator 1will turnamber, indicating that the unit is in the Standbymode.DPR 2005 OM   3/8/04  1:45 PM  Page 19
20 SYSTEM CONFIGURATIONSYSTEM CONFIGURATION3. Carefully remove the protective plastic film fromthe front-panel lens. If left in place, the film willprevent proper operation of the remote control.4. Install the four supplied AAA batteries in theremote as shown. Be certain to follow the (+)and (–) polarity indicators that are in the batterycompartment.5. Turn the DPR 2005 on by pressing the Standby/On Button 2on the front panel, or via theremote by pressing the Power On Button b,the AVR Selector e∫or any of the InputSelectors3Xhç∂on the remote.The Standby/On Indicator 1will turn blue toconfirm that the unit is on.Using the On-Screen DisplayWhen making the following adjustments, you may findit easier to use the DPR 2005’s on-screen displaysystem. These easy-to-read displays give you a clearpicture of the current status of the unit and make iteasy to see which speaker, delay, input or digitalselection you are making.To view the on-screen menus, make certain you havemade a connection from the Video Monitor OutJack •on the rear panel to the composite or S-Video input of your TV or projector. In order to viewthe DPR 2005’s displays, the correct video sourcemust be selected on the video display. The on-screenmenus are not available when a component video display is in use.IMPORTANT NOTE: When viewing the on-screenmenus using a CRT-based projector, plasma display ordirect-view CRT monitor or television, it is important thatthey not be left on for an extended period of time. Theconstant display of a static image such as these menusmay cause the image to be permanently “burned into”the projection tubes, plasma screen or CRT. This type ofdamage is not covered by the DPR 2005 warranty andmay not be covered by the projector/TV set’s warranty.The DPR 2005 has two on-screen display modes,“Semi-OSD” and “Full-OSD.” When making configura-tion adjustments, it is recommended that the full-OSDmode be used. This will place an easily viewed list ofthe available options on the screen.Making Configuration AdjustmentsThe full-OSD system is available by pressing the OSD Button U.When this button is pressed, theMASTER MENU (Figure 1) will appear, andadjustments are made from the individual menus.Figure 1The semi-OSD system is also available, allowing youto make adjustments directly, by pressing the appro-priate buttons on the front panel or remote control forthe specific parameter to be adjusted. For example, tochange the digital input for any of the sources, pressthe Digital Select Button pand then press the⁄/¤Navigation Button oto scroll through thelist of options as they appear in the on-screen displayor in the Lower Display Line &.To use the full-OSD menu system, press the OSDButton U.When the menu is on the screen, pressthe ⁄/¤Navigation Button ountil the on-screen➔cursor is next to the item you wish to adjust, andthen press the Set Button qto adjust that item.The menus will remain on the screen for 20 seconds,and then they will “time-out” and disappear from thescreen. The time-out may be increased to as much as 50 seconds by going to theADVANCEDSELECT menu, and changing the item titledFULL OSD TIME OUT.When the full-OSD system is in use, the menu selec-tions are not shown in the Upper or Lower DisplayLines ^&.When the full-OSD menu system isused, OSD ON will appear in the Upper DisplayLine ^to remind you that a video display must beused. When the semi-OSD system is used in conjunc-tion with the discrete configuration buttons, the on-screen display will show a single line of text with thecurrent menu selection. That selection will also beshown in the Upper or Lower Display Lines ^&,depending on which parameter is being adjusted.Setting the System Configuration MemoryThe DPR 2005 features an advanced memory systemthat enables you to establish different configurationsfor the speaker “size,” component video assignment,digital input, surround mode and crossover frequencyfor each input source. This flexibility enables you tocustom-tailor the way in which you listen to eachsource and have the DPR 2005 memorize those set-tings. This means, for example, that you may set differ-ent speaker configurations with the resultant changesto the bass management system. Once these settingsare made, they will automatically be recalled wheneveryou select that input.The factory default settings for the DPR 2005 have allinputs except for DVD and Video 3 configured for ananalog audio input, the Coaxial Digital Audio Input 1flfor DVD and the Optical Digital Input 1 ‡is the default for Video 3. The default speaker settingsare “Small” at all positions, with the Subwoofer on.The default setting for the surround modes is Logic 7Music for analog sources. Dolby Digital or DTS willautomatically be selected as appropriate when a digitalsource is in use.Before using the unit, you may want to change thesettings for some inputs so that they are properly configured to reflect the use of digital or analog inputs,the type of speakers installed and the surround modespecifics of your home theater system. Rememberthat since the DPR 2005 memorizes the settings foreach input individually, you will need to make theseadjustments for each input used. However, once theyare made, further adjustment is only required whensystem components are changed.To make this process as quick and as easy as possi-ble, we suggest that you use the full-OSD system withthe on-screen menus, and step through each input.Once you have completed the settings for the firstinput, many settings may be duplicated for the remain-ing inputs. It is also a good idea to set the configura-tion data in the order these items are listed in theMASTER MENU,as some settings require aspecific entry in a prior menu item.Input SetupThe first step is to configure each input. Once an input is selected,the settings for the Digital Input,Component Video assignment and Surround Mode will“attach” themselves to that input and be stored in anonvolatile memory. This means that once made, theselection of  an input will automatically recall thosesettings. For that reason, the procedures describedbelow must be repeated for each input source so thatyou have the opportunity to custom tailor each sourceto your specific listening requirements. However, oncemade they need not be changed again unless youneed to alter a setting. The configuration settings forspeaker “size” may be set once and applied to allinputs, or you may select a different speaker configura-tion for each input using the INDEPENDENTsetting, as described on page 26. ** MASTER MENU **IN/OUT SETUPAUDIO SETUPSURROUND SELECTSPEAKER SETUPDELAY ADJUSTCHANNEL ADJUSTMULTI-ROOMADVANCED→20 SYSTEM CONFIGURATIONDPR 2005 OM   3/8/04  1:45 PM  Page 20

This is key with sources such ascable set-tops to ensure that a record feed will contin-ue in the event that the digital audio stream is notavailable when channels are changed.When all needed adjustments have been made, pressthe ¤Navigation Button ountil the ➔cursor isnext to BACK TO MASTER MENU to con-tinue with the system configuration.Audio SetupThis menu allows you to configure the tone controlsand to turn the upsampling on or off. If you do notwish to change any of those settings at this time, pro-ceed to the next menu screen. However, to makeconfiguration changes to those parameters, make cer-tain that the MASTER MENU is on the screenwith the ➔cursor pointing to the AUDIOSETUP line, and press the Set Button q.TheAUDIO SETUP menu (Figure 3) will appear.Figure 3The first line controls whether the bass/treble tonecontrols are in the signal path. The normal default isfor them to be in-line, but if you wish to remove themfrom the circuit for “flat” response, first make certainthat the ➔cursor is pointing to the TONE line onthe menu and press the ‹/›Navigation Buttonoso that OUT is highlighted in reverse video.When the tone controls in the signal path, the amountoff boost or cut for bass and treble may be adjustedby pressing the ⁄/¤Navigation Button osothat the ➔cursor is next to the line for the setting youwish to adjust. Next, press the ‹/›NavigationButton ountil the desired setting is shown.This menu also includes a setting to turn the unit’supsampling feature on or off. In normal use, this feature is turned off, which means that digital sourcesare processed at their native sample rate. For example, a 48kHz digital source will be processed at 48kHz. However, the DPR 2005 allows you toupsample the incoming 48kHz signals to 96kHz for added resolution.To take advantage of this feature, press the ⁄/¤Navigation Button oso that the ➔cursor is nextto the UPSAMPLING line and press the ‹/›Navigation Button oso that ON is highlighted inreverse video. Note that this feature is only availablefor the Dolby Pro Logic II and Dolby Pro Logic IIxMovie and Music and Dolby Pro Logic modes.Speaker OptimizerThe Speaker Optimization function is critical to ensureoptimal performance of the DPR, as it tells the digitalamplifier section how to best match its operation to yourspecific speakers. Note that this adjustment is electronic,not electrical, and unlike the “8-ohm/4-ohm” switcheson older analog amplifiers, you do not need to turn theDPR off to change the setting. However, we do suggestthat you do not have any program material playingthrough the DPR when the setting is changed.Before making this adjustment you will need to find theimpedance specification for your speakers. This informa-tion is often found on a label attached to the speaker,and it is usually shown in the owner’s manual that camewith your speakers. If you cannot find the information foryour speakers, consult the manufacturer’s Web site orcustomer service department.In cases where the speakers in a system have differentimpedance ratings, such as 8 ohms for the front left/rightand center speakers and 6 ohms for the surroundspeakers, use the setting for the front speakers, as theyare used most often for all types of program material.If you cannot determine the speaker’s impedance, thereis no harm in using the factory default setting of 8 ohms,as most home speakers are in that range. However, if itappears that your system’s performance in the high-frequency range sounds constricted at high volume levels, you may want to experiment with the 6-ohm or 4-ohm setting.If your speakers match the factory default setting of 8ohms, no further adjustment is needed, and you may exitthis menu by pressing the ¤Navigation Button oso that the ➔ cursor is pointing to the BACK TOMASTER MENU line and then press the SetButton q.If you do need to change the setting,press the ‹/›Navigation Button ountil thedesired impedance setting appears.When all desired changes have been made on thismenu, press the ⁄/¤Navigation Button oso that the ➔cursor is next to the BACK TOMAIN MENU line and press the Set Button q.Surround SetupThe next step is to set the surround mode you wish to use with the input that was previously selected inthe IN/OUT SETUP menu. Since surroundmodes are a matter of personal taste, feel free toselect any mode you wish – you may change it later.However, to make it easier to establish the initialparameters for the DPR 2005, it is best to selectDolby Pro Logic II (Movie or Music) or Logic 7(Cinema or Music) for most analog inputs and DolbyDigital for inputs connected to digital sources. In thecase of inputs such as a CD Player, Tape Deck orTuner, you may wish to set the mode to Stereo(“Surround Off”) as they are not typically used withmultichannel program material, and it is unlikely thatsurround-encoded material will be used. Alternatively,the Logic 7 Music mode is a good choice for stereo-only source material. See page 32 for moreinformation on available surround modes.For digital program material, the DPR will alwaysexamine the data stream and automatically select aDolby Digital or DTS mode as applicable.It is easiest to complete the surround setup using thefull-OSD on-screen menus. From the MASTERMENU (Figure 1), press the ⁄/¤NavigationButton ountil the ➔cursor is next to the SURROUND SELECT line. Press the SetButton quntil the SURROUND SELECTmenu (Figure 4) is on the screen.Figure 4** SURROUND SELECT **DOLBY SURRDTSLOGIC 7DSP (SURR)VMAxSTEREOBACK TO MASTER MENU→   * AUDIO SETUP *  TONE :IN OUTBASS :0TREBLE :0UPSAMPLING:SPKR OPTIMIZER: 8 OHMBACK TO MASTER MENU→DPR 2005 OM   3/8/04  1:45 PM  Page 22
SYSTEM CONFIGURATIONSYSTEM CONFIGURATIONSYSTEM CONFIGURATION  23SYSTEM CONFIGURATION  23Each of the option lines on this menu (Figure 4)selects the surround mode category, and within eachof those categories there will be a choice of the specific mode options.The choice of modes will vary according to the speakerconfiguration in your system. When the SURRBACK line of the SPEAKER SETUP menu(Figure 7) is set to NONE the DPR 2005 will beconfigured for 5.1-channel operation, and only themodes appropriate to a five-speaker system willappear. When the SURR BACK line of theSPEAKER SETUP menu (Figure 7) is set toSMALL or LARGE,the DPR 2005 will be con-figured for 6.1/7.1-channel operation, and additionalmodes such as Dolby Digital EX, Dolby Pro Logic IIxand DTS-ES will appear, as they are only availablewhen seven main speakers are present. In addition,some of the modes available in the DPR 2005 will notappear unless a digital source is selected and is play-ing the correct bitstream.To select the mode that will be used as the initial defaultfor an input, first press the ⁄/¤Navigation Buttonountil the on-screen cursor is next to the desiredmode’s master category name, such as DOLBYSURROUND,DTS,DSP (SURR) orVMAx.Next, press the Set Button qto view thesubmenu. Press the ‹/›Navigation Button otoscroll through the available choices, and then press the¤Navigation Button oso that the cursor is nextto BACK TO MASTER MENU to continuethe setup process.The following paragraphs detail the instructions neededfor modes with multiple choices.On the DOLBY SURROUND menu (Fig. 5),choices include Dolby Digital, Dolby Pro Logic II, DolbyPro Logic IIx, Movie and Music, Dolby Pro Logic andDolby Virtual Speaker Reference or Wide. For a complete descripton of the different Dolby Surroundmodes, see page 32. The Dolby Digital EX and DolbyPro Logic IIx  modes are only available when the system is set for 6.1/7.1 operation by configuring the Surround Back speakers to “Small” or “Large” asdescribed on page 24. When a disc is playing with aDolby Digital soundtrack that contains a special “flag”signal in the data stream, the Dolby Digital EX modewill be selected automatically. It may also be selectedusing this menu or through the front-panel or remotecontrols as shown on page 31. A complete explana-tion of these modes is found on page 32.Figure 5When the ➔cursor is pointing to the MODE line,press the ‹/›Navigation Buttons oto select thedesired Dolby surround mode, again remembering thatthe choice of available modes will vary with the type ofprogram material being played and the number ofspeakers in your system configuratioin.When Dolby Pro Logic II Music or Dolby Pro Logic IIxMusic is selected as the listening mode, three specialsettings are available to tailor the sound field to yourlistening room environment and your individual tasteand preferences. (When other Dolby Surround modesare selected, dotted lines will indicate that these set-tings are not active.)• Center Width: This setting adjusts the balance of thevocal information in the front soundstage betweenthe center and front left/right speakers. The lowersettings spread the center channel sound morebroadly into the left and right channels. A highernumber (up to “7”) produces a tighter center chan-nel presentatioin.• Dimension: This setting alters the perceived depth of the surround field by creating a shallower presen-tation that appears to move sounds toward the frontof the room, or a deeper presentation that appearsto move the center of the sound field toward theback of the room. The setting of “O” is a neutraldefault, with the range of adjustment shown as “R-3” for a deeper, rear-oriented sound to “F-3”for a shallower, front-oriented sound.• Panorama: Switch this setting on or off to add anenveloping wrap-around presentation that increasesthe perception of sound along the sides of the room.To change these parameters, press the ¤/⁄Navigation Buttons owhile the DOLBYSURROUND menu is on the screen until the ➔cursor is pointing to the line on the menu with theparameter you wish to change. Then, press the ‹/›Navigation Buttons oto alter the setting to your taste.When the DOLBY DIGITAL mode is selected,there are additional settings available for the Night mode, as shown in Figure 6.Figure 6The Night mode is a feature of Dolby Digital that pre-serves the dynamic range and full intelligibility of amovie soundtrack while reducing the peak level. Thisprevents abruptly loud transitions from disturbing oth-ers, without reducing the sonic impact of a digitalsource. The Night mode is only available when speciallyencoded Dolby Digital signals are played.To adjust the Night mode setting, make certain that the➔cursor is on the NIGHT line of the DOLBYmenu. Next, press ‹/›Navigation Button otochoose between the following settings, as they appearin the on-screen display:OFF:When OFF is highlighted, the Night modewill not function.MID:When MID is highlighted, a mild compres-sion will be applied.MAX:When MAX is highlighted, a more severecompression algorithm will be applied.We recommend that you select the MID setting as a starting point and change to the MAX setting later,if desired.The Night mode may also be adjusted directly anytime a Dolby Digital source is playing by pressing the Night Mode Button T.When the button ispressed, D-RANGE will appear in the lower thirdof the video screen and in the Lower Display Line&.Press the ⁄/¤Navigation Button owithinthree seconds to select the desired setting.When all settings for the surround setup have beenmade, press the ⁄/¤Navigation Button oso that the ›cursor is next to BACK TOMASTER MENU,and press the Set Buttonqto return to the MASTER MENU.On the DTS menu, the selection choices made withthe ‹/›Navigation Button oon the remote aredetermined by a combination of the type of programmaterial in use and whether the 5.1- or 6.1/7.1-channel configuration is in use.When a DTS digitally encoded source is playing, thechoice of modes for 7.1 systems will vary accordingto the program source (DTS 5.1, DTS-ES Matrix or** DOLBY SURROUND **MODE: DOLBY DIGITALCENTER WIDTH: ---DIMENSION: ---PANORAMA: ---NIGHT: OFF MID MAXBACK TO SURR SELECT→** DOLBY SURROUND **MODE:    DOLBY PLII              MUSICCENTER WIDTH: 3DIMENSION: 0PANORAMA: OFF ONNIGHT: -----BACK TO SURR SELECT→DPR 2005 OM   3/8/04  1:45 PM  Page 23

The DTS Neo:6 Musicmode is available with analog and PCM digital stereosources and the DTS Neo:6 Cinema mode may beused with matrix surround-encoded sources for anenhanced 5.1-channel sound field.When the 5.1 configuration is in use, the DPR willautomatically select the 5.1 version of DTS processingwhen a DTS data stream is detected. When the 6.1/7.1 mode is selected, the DTS-ES Discrete mode willautomatically be activated for DTS sources with the ESDiscrete “flag.” When a non-ES DTS disc is in use, youmay select the DTS-ES Matrix mode to create a full7.1 surround mode. See page 32 for an explanationof the DTS modes.When an analog or two-channel PCM source is play-ing, the DTS Neo:6 modes are available, which cre-ates a three-, five- or six-channel presentation of thesound. The exact modes available will depend on thenumber of speaker positions established in theSPEAKER SETUP menu. (See page 25 toconfigure the system for the number and type ofspeakers in your system.)On the LOGIC 7menu, the choices availablemade with the ‹/›Navigation Button oaredetermined by whether the 5.1- or 6.1/7.1-channelconfiguration is in use. In either case, the selection of aLogic 7 mode enables Harman Kardon’s exclusiveLogic 7 processing to create multichannel surroundfrom two-channel stereo- or matrix-encoded program-ming such as VHS cassettes or television broadcastsproduced with Dolby Surround.With 5.1 configurations, you may select the Logic 7/5.1Music, Cinema or Enhance modes. They work bestwith surround-encoded programs or two-channel pro-gramming of any type. For 6.1/7.1 configurations, theMusic and Cinema modes may be selected.

See page 32 fora complete explanation of the stereo modes.After the selections are made on the Dolby, DTS,Logic 7, DSP (Surround) or Stereo menus, press the⁄/¤Navigation Button oso that the cursormoves to the BACK TO MASTER MENUline and press the Set Button q.Speaker SetupThis menu tells the DPR 2005 which type of speakersare in use. This is important as it adjusts the settingsthat decide whether your system will use the “5-chan-nel” or “6-channel/7-channel” modes, as well asdetermining which speakers receive low-frequency(bass) information.For each of these settings, use the LARGE settingif the speakers for a particular position are traditionalfull-range loudspeakers. Use the SMALL setting forsmaller, frequency-limited satellite speakers that do notreproduce sounds below 200Hz. Note that when“small” speakers are used, a subwoofer is required toreproduce low-frequency sounds. Remember that the“large” and “small” descriptions do not refer to theactual physical size of the speakers, but to their abilityto reproduce low-frequency sounds. If you are indoubt as to which categorydescribes your speakers,consult the specifications in the speakers’ owner’smanual, or ask your dealer.This menu screen also allows you to enter the settingsfor the DPR 2005’s Quadruple Crossover featurewhich allows a different crossover point to be used forthe front left/right, center, surround and surround backspeakers. In systems where full-range or tower speakersare used for the front soundstage or where differentbrands or models are in use at the various speakerpositions, this feature allows you to customize the bassmanagement and redirection circuits with a precisionnot previously possible.It is easiest to enter the proper settings for the speakersetup through the SPEAKER SETUP menu(Figure 7).

When MAINappears, the unit is set for 7.1-channel operation.When MULTI appears, the Surround Back amplifierchannels have been reconfigured so that they are fedby the output of the Multiroom system. See page 39for more information on configuring the SurroundBack amplifier channels.Press the ‹/›Navigation Button oon theremote to select the option that best describes thespeakers in use at the left and right back surroundpositions based on the definitions on this page:When NONE is selected, the system will adjust sothat only 5.1-channel modes are available. When thisis the case for your system, you may wish to use thesurround back amplifier channels to power a secondset of speakers whose source is selected by the DPR2005’s multiroom system. See page 39 for moreinformation.When SMALL is selected, the system will adjust sothat the full complement of 6.1/7.1modes are available,and low-frequency information below the crossoverpoint will be sent to the subwoofer output. If youchoose this option and there is no subwoofer connect-ed, you will not hear any low-frequency sounds fromthe surround back channels.When LARGE is selected, the system will adjust sothat the full complement of 6.1/7.1 surround process-ing/decoding modes are available, and a full-range sig-nal will be sent to the surround back channels, with nolow-frequency information sent to the subwoofer output.When you have completed your selection for the surround back channels, press the ¤NavigationButton oto move the cursor to SUBWOOFER.Press the ‹/›Navigation Button oto select theoption that best describes your system.The choices available for the subwoofer position willdepend on the settings for the other speakers, particu-larly the front left/right positions.If the front left/right speakers are set to SMALL,the subwoofer will automatically be set to SUB,which is the “on” position.If the front left/right speakers are set to LARGE,three options are available:• If no subwoofer is connected to the DPR 2005,press the ‹/›Navigation Button ountilNONE appears. With this option, all bass infor-mation will be routed to the front left/right “main”speakers.• If a subwoofer is connected to the DPR 2005, youhave the option to have the front left/right “main”speakers reproduce bass frequencies at all times,and have the subwoofer operate only when theDPR 2005 is being used with a digital source thatcontains a dedicated low-frequency effects, or LFE soundtrack. This allows you to use both yourmain and subwoofer speakers to take advantageof the special bass sounds created for somemovies. Press ‹/›Navigation Button ountilSUB (LFE) appears.• If a subwoofer is connected and you wish to use itfor bass reproduction in conjunction with the mainfront left/right speakers, regardless of the type ofprogram source or Surround mode you are listen-ing to, press the ‹/›Navigation Button ountil SUB L/R+LFE appears.

The low-frequency crossoverpoint is set by the design of your speakers. Dependingon the design and driver complement of your speakers,it is defined as the frequency which is either the lowestpossible frequency the speaker is capable of repro-ducing, or the frequency at which sound is sent to thespeaker’s internal low-frequency driver, as opposed tothe midrange driver.Before making any changes to the settings for the crossover point, we suggest that you find thecrossover point for the speakers in each of the fourgroupings, front left/right, center front, surround andsurround back, by looking at the specifications page of each speaker’s owner’s manual, by getting thatinformation from the manufacturer’s Web site, or by contacting your dealer or the manufacturer’s customer service department. You will need this figureto accurately configure the next group of settings.Note that when any speaker group other than the frontleft/right speakers is set to LARGE,the crossovermay not be adjusted, as the feed will be full-range,with no sound being derived for the subwoofer from that position.The factory default setting for all speaker positions is100Hz. If that setting is acceptable for all channels,then no adjustments are needed and you may skipthis section. However, should you wish to change one of the settings, please proceed by pressing the⁄Navigation Button oso that the cursor moves back up to the MODE line.

SYSTEM CONFIGURATIONSYSTEM CONFIGURATION26 SYSTEM CONFIGURATION26 SYSTEM CONFIGURATIONFigure 8To change the setting for any of the four speakergroups, press the ⁄/¤Navigation Button ountilthe cursor is next to the speaker group where youwish to make a change and then press the ‹/›Navigation Button ountil the desired settingappears. The available choices for low-frequency information to be sent to the subwoofer, rather than to the main speaker channel, are 40Hz, 60Hz, 80Hz,100Hz, 120Hz and 200Hz. Pick the choice that isidentical to the information for the speakers, or if anexact match is not possible, pick the closest choicethat is ABOVE the speaker’s low-frequency limit orcrossover point to avoid the creation of a low-frequency “hole” where your system will have no bass information.The setting for the crossover point for the LFE chan-nel, which is created to provide specific low-frequencyinformation in many movies with digital soundtracks,may be set to match the crossover for any of the fourspeaker groups. Since the crossover point commonlyused in the creation of the LFE channel is 120Hz, werecommend that you select the speaker group whosecrossover point is closest to 120Hz. To do this, pressthe ⁄/¤Navigation Button ountil the cursor is next to the LFE line, and then press the ‹/›Navigation Button ountil the name of the speaker group with the desired crossover frequencyappears. Of course, you may also experiment with different settings to find the one that provides thesmoothest and most complete bass response in yourparticular listening environment.When all crossover settings have been made, or inthose cases where none are needed, press the ¤Navigation Button oso that the cursor is next tothe BASS MGR line to make the final setting onthis menu.This setting allows you to use the same speaker con-figuration and crossover settings for all inputs, or tohave different settings for each input. In most cases,the factory default setting of GLOBAL will beappropriate, as most systems do not need individualspeaker settings. However, when full-range frontspeakers are used for both movies and music, differ-ent bass management settings may be used when listening to music through a CD player as opposed to a movie from a DVD player, VCR or cable/satellite set-top.To customize the speaker-size configurations to eachinput, make certain that the MODE line of theSPEAKER SETUP menu is set to SIZE,and that the cursor is on the BASS MGR line.Press the ‹/›Navigation Button oso thatINDEPENDENT appears in highlighted video.When this choice is entered by exiting the menu, thesettings just entered will apply to the current inputONLY, and you will need to go back to theIN/OUT menu to select another input, and thenreturn to this menu page to change the settings forthe next input. Repeat the procedure for any inputwhere you wish to have a different set of speaker con-figuration and crossover settings.NOTE: The inidependent feature allows you to select adifferent speaker size configuration (Large, Small orNone, as appropriate) for each input source. However,the individual crossover point setting may only be setonce, and the selection made during the initial setupwill be used for all inputs, regardless of any changesmade to the “Large” or “Small” settings for the speakergroups attached to any input. The reason is that whileyou may prefer different settings for the bass redirec-tion (that is, which signals go to the subwoofer or thespeaker group), the actual crossover point remains thesame since the actual loudspeakers themselvesremain the same regardless of any other setting.When all speaker selections have been made, pressthe ¤Navigation Button oand then the SetButton qto return to the MASTER MENU.Delay SettingsDue to the different distances between the listeningposition and each speaker position, the amount oftime it takes for sound to reach your ears from eachchannel is different. You may compensate for this dif-ference through the use of the delay settings to adjustthe timing for the speaker placement and acousticconditions in your listening room or home theater.The DPR 2005’s advanced software enables you toquickly and easily set delay times without the need tocalculate them using a complex formula. Instead, allyou need to do is measure the approximate distancebetween your listening  position and each of thespeakers in your system. When you enter those dis-tances into the DPR’s memory as shown below, theDPR’s microprocessor does the rest of the work, cal-culating the proper delay time. The measurementsneed not be accurate to the inch, as the system isdesigned to accommodate a typical listening arearather than require the precise measurement to one“sweet spot” position.In addition to adjusting the delay time for each individ-ual speaker position, the DPR 2005 is among the fewreceivers that allows you to adjust the delay for thecombined output of all speakers as a group. This fea-ture is called A/V Sync Delay; it allows you to com-pensate for delays to the video image that may becaused by the processing in products such as digitalvideo displays, video scalers, digital cable or satellitesystems, or personal video recorders. With properadjustment of the setting for A/V Sync Delay, you caneliminate the loss of lip sync that may be caused bydigital video applications.Due to the differences between the way surroundmodes operate, some modes allow for a greater rangeof delay times than others. To avoid problems, we rec-ommend that delay times be adjusted using the DolbyDigital mode. If a different mode is selected at a latertime, the DPR 2005 will automatically select the closest delay settings available for the surround mode in use.Delay times are adjustable only for the Dolby and DTSmodes, so you will notice that the DELAY menu may not be accessed for other modes, such as Logic 7.In addition, when a non-Dolby Digital mode such as Pro Logic II is selected, adjustments may be made to the Surround speakers only.To set the delay time for a specific input, theDELAY ADJUST menu (Figure 9) should bevisible on your on-screen display. If the system is notalready at that point, press the OSD Button Uto bring up the MASTER MENU,press the ¤Navigation Button ountil the on-screen ➔cursor is pointing at the DELAY ADJUST line.Press the Set Button qto call up the menu.Figure 9Once the DELAY ADJUST menu is on yourscreen, note that the default for distance settings is infeet.

It is particularlyimportant for a digital receiver such as the DPR 2005,as correct outputs ensure that you hear soundtrackswith the proper directionality and intensity.IMPORTANT NOTE: Listeners are often confusedabout the operation of the surround channels. Whilesome assume that sound should always be comingfrom each speaker, most of the time there will be littleor no sound in the surround channels. This is becausethey are only used when a movie director or soundmixer specifically places sound there to create ambi-ence, a special effect or to continue action from thefront of the room to the rear. When the output levelsare properly set, it is normal for surround speakers tooperate only occasionally. Artificially increasing thevolume to the rear speakers may destroy the illusionof an enveloping sound field that duplicates the wayyou hear sound in a movie theater or concert hall.Before beginning the output level adjustment process,make certain that all speaker connections have beenproperly made. The system volume should be set tothe level that you will use during a typical listeningsession. While the DPR 2005 allows you to set outputlevels manually, we recommend that the EzSet systembe used when the DPR is first installed to establish theinitial level settings.Using EzSetHarman Kardon’s exclusive EzSet remote makes it possible to quickly and accurately set the DPR 2005’soutput levels without the use of a sound-pressure meter,although manual adjustment is also available. However,for the easiest setup, follow these steps while seated inthe listening position that will be used most often:1. Make sure all speaker positions have been config-ured for their “large” or “small” settings (see pp.24–26) and turn off the OSD system if it is in use.2. Adjust the volume so that it is at 15dB,or alevel that is closest to the setting you prefer for a typical listening session, as shown in the on-screendisplay or Lower Display Line &.3. Press and hold the SPL Select Button until thered LED under the Set Button qlights and theLCD screen in the remote changes to the displayshown in Figure 10.Figure 104. Press the Set Button qwithin five seconds tomove to the next step.5. Press the ⁄Navigation Button ountil the lowerline of the remote’s LCD display shows the number ofspeakers in your system. (Don’t count the subwoofer or speakers that are part of a multizone system.) Forexample, if you have left, center, right, surround left andright, and surround back left and right speakers fora full 7.1 system, press the button twice so that thebottom line reads 7 CHANNELS,as shown inFigure 11.Figure 116. Hold the remote in front of you at arm’s length, beingsure not to cover the EzSet Microphone Sensorat the top of the remote, and press the SetButton qwithin five seconds to begin the EzSetcalibration process. At this point, EzSet will take con-trol of your DPR, starting the test tone at the front leftspeaker, and automatically adjusting the output levelso that it is correct. During the adjustment the on-screen display and the Lower Display Line &will display the speaker position on the left side ofthe display and the offset from reference level onthe right side of the display. As the levels are adjusted, the speaker position and a level indicationwill appear in the bottom line of the remote’s LCDdisplay (Figure 12).Figure 12EZSET CHANNELS: 7SPEAKER:1  68dB 46SELECT # SPKRS7 CHANNELSSET SPKR LEVELSEZSET45DPR 2005 OM   3/8/04  1:45 PM  Page 27
SYSTEM CONFIGURATIONSYSTEM CONFIGURATION28 SYSTEM CONFIGURATION28 SYSTEM CONFIGURATION• The channel position being adjusted will flash in theSpeaker/Channel Input Indicators %.If thetest noise is heard from a channel other than theone shown in the indicator, there is an error in the speaker connections. If this is the case, press theTest Button fTWICE to stop the adjustment.Then turn the unit off and verify that all speakers are connected to the proper Speaker Outputsefgh and that any connections made tospeakers powered by optional amplifiers throughthe Preamp Outputs ‹are correct.• During the adjustment process for each channel,you will see indications of LOW, HIGH and a levelreadout in dB.This is normal, and it confirms thatEzSet is doing its job of changing the levels tomatch the desired reference.• If a channel cannot be adjusted to the proper reference level, you will see FAIL displayed in the remote’s bottom LCD line before the test tonemoves to the next channel. This is usually an indi-cation that the volume control was set too low.When EzSet stops circulating the tone through allchannels and returns to normal, adjust the volumelevel and repeat the procedure from Step 3.7. After the test noise has circulated once through eachchannel, it will send the tone to each channel onceagain, to verify the settings.8. After two complete circulations of the tone, the levelsare set. Upon completion of the second circulation,the LCD Information Display cwill flash COMPLETE three times and then go out. The tone will stop and the DPR 2005 will return to normal operation.If you find that the output levels chosen by EzSet areeither uncomfortably low or high, you may repeat theprocedure. Return to Step 2 and adjust the master vol-ume either slightly higher or lower to accommodate yourparticular room layout and your tastes. You may repeatthis procedure as many times as necessary to achieve adesired result. In order to prevent possible damage toyour hearing or your equipment, it is important to avoidsetting the master volume above 0dB.NOTE: The subwoofer output is not adjusted when thetest tone is in use. To adjust the subwoofer output, youmust use an external source (see page 36).Manual Output Level AdjustmentOutput levels may also be adjusted manually, either toset them to a specific level with an SPL meter, or tomake fine tuning adjustments to the levels obtainedusing the EzSet remote.Figure 13Manual output level adjustment is most easily donethrough the CHANNEL ADJUST menu(Figure 13). If you are already at the MASTERMENU,press the ¤Navigation Button ountilthe on-screen ➔cursor is next to the CHANNELADJUST line. If you are not at the MASTERMENU,press the OSD Button Uto bring up the MASTER MENU (Fig. 1), and then press the¤Navigation Button ountil the on-screen ➔cursor is next to the CHANNEL ADJUSTline. Press the Set Button qto bring theCHANNEL ADJUST menu (Figure 13) to the screen.When the CHANNEL ADJUST menu firstappears the test tone is off. If desired, you may imme-diately use the ⁄/¤Navigation Button otoselect any channel for adjustment using an externalsource, such as a test disc, from which to judge theoutput levels. After the ➔cursor is pointing to thechannel to be adjusted, press the ‹/›NavigationButton oto raise or lower the output level.However, before proceeding with any manual adjust-ment we recommend that you first use the DPR’sinternal test tone generator and automatic sequencerto send a tone to each channel so that you may verifythat all speaker connections have been properly made.To turn the test tone on and have it automatically cir-culate among the channels where a speaker has pre-viously been configured (see page 24), press the⁄/¤Navigation Button ountil the ➔cursor ispointing to the TEST TONE line on the menu.Next, press the ‹/›Navigation Button ountilAUTO SEQ is shown in highlighted video. At thistime the test tone will immediately begin to circulateclockwise around the room, playing for two seconds ineach speaker before switching to the next speakerposition. The ➔cursor will blink next to the activespeaker to indicate which speaker the sound shouldbe coming from.As the test noise circulates, listen to make certain thatthe sound comes from the speaker position shown inthe Lower Display Line &.If the sound from aspeaker location does NOT match the position indicatedin the display, turn the DPR 2005 off using the MainPower Switch Aand check the speaker wiring orconnections to external power amplifiers to make cer-tain that each speaker is connected to the correct out-put terminal.After checking for speaker placement, let the testnoise circulate again, and listen to see which channelssound louder than the others. Using the front leftspeaker as a reference, press the ‹/›NavigationButton oto bring all speakers to the same volumelevel. When the ‹/›Navigation Button oispushed, the test noise circulation will pause on thechannel being adjusted to give you time to make the adjustment. When you release the button, the circulation will resume after five seconds.Continue to adjust the individual channels until the volume level sounds the same from each speaker.Adjustments should be made with the ‹/›NavigationButton oonly, NOT the main volume controls. If youare using a sound-pressure level (SPL) meter for pre-cise level adjustment, set the volume so that the meterreads 75dB, C-Weighting Slow.You may also make these same adjustments withcomplete manual control over the channel beingadjusted by pressing the ⁄/¤Navigation Buttonountil the ➔cursor is pointing to the TESTTONE SEQ line on the menu and then using the‹/›Navigation Button oto select MANUALin the highlighted video. In the MANUAL mode, thetest tone will also start immediately, but the tone willonly be moved to another channel by pressing the⁄/¤Navigation Button o.When the manualsequencing mode is active, the tone is turned off bypressing the ⁄/¤Navigation Button ountil the➔cursor is pointing to the TEST TONE line andthe ‹/›Navigation Button ois then pressed toselect OFF in the highlighted video.The DPR’s EzSet feature may also be used as an SPLmeter to assist in accurate setting of the output levels,when either the internal test tone or an external sourcesuch as a test disc is used.

Pressthe Dolby Mode Select Button gor theSurround Mode Selector 4to cycle through thethree Dolby Headphone modes to select the onethat you prefer.Surround Mode SelectionOne of the most important features of the DPR 2005 is its ability to reproduce a full multichannel sound fieldfrom digital sources, analog matrix surround-encodedprograms and standard stereo programs.Selection of a surround mode is based on personaltaste, as well as the type of program source materialbeing used. For example, motion pictures or TV pro-grams bearing the logo of one of the major surround-encoding processes, such as Dolby Surround or DTSStereo may be played in either the Dolby Digital,Dolby Pro Logic II Cinema, Dolby Pro Logic IIx Cinema,DTS Neo:6 Cinema, or Logic 7 Cinema surroundmodes, depending on the source material.NOTE: Once a program has been encoded with matrixsurround information, it retains the surround informationas long as the program is available in stereo. Thus,movies with surround sound may be decoded via any of the analog surround modes such as Pro Logic II orIIx Cinema, Logic 7 Cinema or DTS Neo:6 Cinema,when they are broadcast via conventional TV stations,cable, pay-TV and satellite transmission. Also, a growingnumber of TV programs, sports broadcasts and radiodramas are also recorded in surround sound.Even when a program is not listed as carrying intentionalsurround information, you may find that the Pro Logic II,Logic 7 Enhanced or DTS Neo:6, VMAx and the Hall orTheater modes often deliver enveloping surround pre-sentations through the use of the natural informationpresent in all stereo recordings.Surround modes may be changed at any time byusing either the front panel or remote control. Toselect a new surround mode from the front panel, firstpress the Surround Mode Group Selector Button3until the desired major surround mode group suchas Dolby, DTS or Logic 7 is selected. Next, press theSurround Mode Selector Button 4to choose thespecific individual surround mode.To select a surround mode using the remote, pressthe button for the surround mode group that includesthe mode you wish to choose: Dolby g,DTSDigital f,DTS Neo:6 e,Logic 7 h,Stereodor DSP Surround g.The first press of thebutton will show the current mode from that group if itis already in use, or the first available mode if you arecurrently using another mode. To cycle through theavailable modes in that group, press the button againuntil the desired mode appears in the Lower DisplayLine &,the on-screen display and in the front-panelSurround Mode Indicators *.The Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital EX, DTS 5.1, DTS-ESMatrix and DTS-ES Discrete modes may only beselected when a digital input is in use. In addition,when a digital source is present, the DPR 2005 willautomatically select and switch to the correct mode,regardless of the mode that has been previouslyselected. For more information on selecting digitalsources, see the Digital Audio Playback section below.When the 6-Channel/8-Channel direct inputs are inuse, there is no surround processing, as these inputstake the analog output signals from an optional, exter-nal DVD-Audio or SACD player, or another sourcedevice, and carry them straight through to the volumecontrol.To listen to a program in traditional two-channel stereo, using the front left and front right speakers only (plus the subwoofer, if installed and configured),press the Stereo Mode Select Button untilSURROUNDOFF appears in the Lower DisplayLine &.From the front panel, press the SurroundMode Group Selector 3until the Stereomodesappear in the on-screen display and Lower DisplayLine &.Next, press the Surround Mode SelectorButton 4until SURROUND OFF appears inthe on-screen display and Lower Display Line &.Digital Audio PlaybackDigital audio is a major advancement over analog sur-round processing systems. It delivers up to six discretechannels, and each channel reproduces full frequencyrange (20Hz to 20kHz) and offers dramatically improveddynamic range and significant improvements to signal-to-noise ratios. In addition, digital systems have the capa-bility to deliver an additional channel that is specificallydevoted to low-frequency information. This is the “.1”channel referred to when you see these systemsdescribed as “5.1,” “6.1” or “7.1.” The bass channel isseparate from the other channels, but since it is inten-tionally bandwidth-limited, sound designers have given itthat unique designation.Dolby DigitalDolby Digital is a standard part of DVD, and is availableon specially encoded LD discs and satellite broad-casts and it is a part of the high-definition television(HDTV) system.An optional, external RF demodulator is required to use the DPR 2005 to listen to the Dolby Digitalsoundtracks available on laser discs. Connect the RFoutput of the LD player to the demodulator and thenconnect the digital output of the demodulator to theOptical or Coaxial Inputs fl‡HJ of the DPR 2005. No demodulator is required for use withDVD players or DTS-encoded laser discs.DTSDTS is a digital audio system capable of delivering 5.1or 6.1 discrete or matrix sound field reproduction.Although both DTS and Dolby Digital are digital, theyuse different methods of encoding the signals, andthus they require different decoding circuits to convertthe digital signals back to analog.DTS-encoded soundtracks are available on select DVD and LD discs, as well as on audio-only DTSdiscs. You may use any LD or CD player equippedwith a digital output to play DTS-encoded discs withthe DPR 2005. All that is required is to connect theplayer’s output to either an Optical or Coaxial Inputon the rear panel fl‡ or front panel HJ.In order to listen to DVDs encoded with DTS sound-tracks, the DVD player must be compatible with theDTS signal, which is indicated by the “DTS Digital Out”logo on the player’s front panel. Some early DVD play-ers were not able to play DTS-encoded DVDs. Thisdoes not indicate a problem with the DPR 2005, asthose players cannot pass through the DTS signal. Ifyou’re in doubt as to the capability of your DVD playerto handle DTS discs, consult the player’s owner’smanual.IMPORTANT NOTE: Many DVD players have a defaultsetting that does not pass through the DTS data, eventhough the machine is capable of doing so. If yourDVD player has the “DTS Digital Out” logo but doesnot trigger DTS playback in the DPR 2005, changethe player’s settings in the “Audio” or “Bitstream” con-figuration menu so that DTS playback is enabled. Themethod for doing this will vary with each player. Insome cases, the proper menu choice will be “Original,”while in others it will be “DTS.” Consult the owner’smanual for your player to find the specific informationto find the proper setting.40DPR 2005 OM   3/8/04  1:45 PM  Page 31
Surround Mode ChartMODE FEATURESDolby Digital Available only with digital input sources encoded with Dolby Digital data. It provides up to five separate main audio channels and a special dedicated low-frequency effects channel.Dolby Digital EX Available when the receiver is configured for 6.1/7.1 channel operation, Dolby Digital EX is the latest version of Dolby Digital. When used with movies or other programs that have special encoding, Dolby Digital EX reproduces specially encoded soundtracks so that a full 6.1/7.1 soundfield is available. When the receiver is set for 6.1/7.1 operation and a Dolby Digital signal is present, the EX mode is automatically selected. Even if specific EX encoding is not available to provide the additional channel, the special algorithms will derive a 6.1/7.1 output.DTS 5.1 When the speaker configuration is set for 5.1-channel operation, the DTS 5.1 mode is available when DVD, audio-only music or laser discs encoded with DTS data are played. DTS 5.1 provides up to five separate main audio channels and a special dedicated low-frequency channel.DTS-ES 6.1 Matrix When the speaker configuration is set for 6.1/7.1 operation, playback of a DTS-encoded program source will automatically trigger the selection of one of the two DTS-ES 6.1 Discrete DTS-ES modes. Newer discs with special DTS-ES discrete encoding will be decoded to provide six discrete, full-bandwidth channels plus a separate low-frequency channel. All other DTS discs will be decoded using the DTS-ES Matrix mode, which creates a 6.1-channel sound field from the original 5.1-channel soundtrack.Dolby Pro Logic II Dolby Pro Logic II decodes full-range, discrete, left, center right, right surround and left surround channels from either matrix surround-encoded Movie programs or conventional stereo sources when an analog input is in use. The Dolby Pro Logic II Movie mode is optimized for movie soundtracks,Music while the Pro Logic II Music mode should be used with musical selections. The Pro Logic mode re-creates original Pro Logic processing for Pro Logic those who prefer that presentation.Dolby Pro Logic IIx Dolby Pro Logic IIx is the latest extension of Dolby Pro Logic II technology that creates a discrete 6.1 and 7.1 sound field from matrix surround or two-channelMusic stereo sources in systems configured for surround back speakers. Both Movie and Music versions of Pro Logic IIx are available. These modes may also be appliedMovie to a six-channel source connected to the 8-Channel Direct Inputs fiso that the sound field is enhanced by adding back surround channels, as well as to enable the MAIN DOWNMIX option in the multiroom system so that a six channel direct input may be used as a source for the remote room.Logic 7 Cinema Exclusive to Harman Kardon for receivers, Logic 7 is an advanced mode that extracts the maximum surround information from either surround-encoded programs Logic 7 Music or conventional stereo material. When your system has been configured for use with Surround Back Speakers (see page 25), you may choose between either Logic 7 Enhance 7.1 or 5.1 versions of the Logic 7 modes, while only the 5.1 versions are available when there are no Surround Back Speakers. The Logic 7 C (or Cinema) mode should be used with any source that contains Dolby Surround or similar matrix encoding. Logic 7 C delivers increased center channel intelligibility, and more accurate placement of sounds with fades and pans that are much smoother and more realistic than with other decoding techniques. The Logic 7 M or Music mode should be used with analog or PCM stereo sources. Logic 7 M enhances the listening experience by presenting a wider front soundstage and greater rear ambience. Both Logic 7 modes also direct low-frequency information to the subwoofer (if installed and configured) to deliver maximum bass impact. The Logic 7 E (or Enhance) mode, available only when the 5.1 option is chosen, is an extension of the Logic 7 modes that is primarily used with musical programs. Logic 7 adds additional bass enhancement that circulates low frequencies in the 40Hz to 120Hz range to the front and surround speakers to deliver a less localized soundstage that appears broader and wider than when the subwoofer is the sole source of bass energy.DTS Neo:6 Cinema These two modes are available with analog sources playing to create a three-channel, five-channel or six-channel surround presentation from matrix-encoded DTS Neo:6 Music or stereo sources. Select the Cinema version of Neo:6 when a program with matrix surround encoding is present. Select the Music version of Neo:6 for optimal processing when a nonencoded, two-channel stereo program is being played.Theater The Theater mode creates a sound field that resembles the acoustic feeling of a standard live performance theater.Hall 1, Hall 2 The two Hall modes create sound fields that resemble a small- (Hall 1) or medium-sized (Hall 2) concert hall.VMAx Near When only the two front-channel loudspeakers are used, VMAx delivers a three-dimensional sound space with the illusion of “phantom speakers” at the centerVMAx Far and surround positions. The VMAx N, or “Near Field” mode should be selected when your listening position is less than five feet from the speakers. The VMAx F, or “Far Field,” mode should be selected when your listening position is greater than five feet from the speakers.Dolby Virtual Speaker Dolby Virtual Speaker uses advanced technology to simulate the sonic signature of a speaker location even when there is no speaker physically present in thatReference location. The Reference (“REF”) mode activates the front left/right or front left/center/right speakers to simulate a 5.1 presentation with accurate localization.Wide The Wide mode virtualizes additional front-channel speakers to create a wider image and a more enveloping sound field. It is available no matter how manyspeakers are present.5-Channel Stereo These modes take advantage of multiple speakers to place a stereo signal at both the front and back of a room. They places the same signal at the front-left and 7-Channel Stereo surround-left, and front-right and surround-right speakers. The center channel is fed a summed mono mix of the in-phase material of the left and right channels.Surround This mode turns off all surround processing and presents the pure left- and right-channel presentation of two-channel stereo programs.Off (Stereo)Dolby Headphone Dolby Headphone enables ordinary stereo headphones to portray the sound of a five-speaker surround-playback system. The DH1 mode creates DH1 headphone presentation that resembles a small, well-damped room and is appropriate for use with both movies and music-only recordings.DH2 The DH2 mode creates a more acoustically live room particularly suited to music listening. The DH3 mode creates a larger room,more like a DH3 concert hall or movie theater.OPERATION32  OPERATIONDPR 2005 OM   3/8/04  1:45 PM  Page 32
OPERATIONOPERATION  33OPERATION  33Selecting a Digital SourceTo utilize either digital mode, you must have properlyconnected a digital source to the DPR 2005. Connectthe digital outputs from DVD players, HDTV receivers,satellite systems or CD players to the Optical orCoaxial Inputs fl‡HJ.In order to provide a backup signal and a source for analog stereo recording,the analog outputs provided on digital source equipmentshould also be connected to their appropriate inputs onthe DPR 2005 rear panel (e.g., connect the analogstereo audio output from a DVD to the DVD Inputs ¶on the rear panel when you connect the source’s digital outputs).If you have not already configured an input for a digitalsource using the on-screen menus as shown onpage 21, first select the desired input using theremote or front-panel controls, as outlined in this man-ual. Next, press the Digital Select Button pEand then using the ⁄/¤Navigation Button oon the remote or the ⁄/¤Buttons !on the frontpanel,choose any of the OPTICAL or COAX-IALinputs, as they appear in the Upper DisplayLine ^or on-screen display. When the digital sourceis playing, the DPR 2005 will automatically detectwhich type of digital data stream is being decoded anddisplay that information in the Upper Display Line ^.When both a digital and an analog connection aremade between a source device and the DPR, the digi-tal input is the default. If the digital stream is not pres-ent or is interrupted, the unit will automatically switchover to the analog inputs for the selected source.Digital Bitstream and Surround Mode IndicationsWhen a digital source is playing, the DPR senses thetype of bitstream data that is present. Using this infor-mation, the correct surround mode will automaticallybe selected. For example, DTS bitstreams will causethe unit to switch to DTS decoding, and Dolby Digitalbitstreams will enable Dolby Digital decoding. Whenthe unit senses PCM data from CDs or LDs, you mayselect any of the standard surround modes, such asDolby Pro Logic II or Logic 7. Since the range ofavailable surround modes is dependent on the type of digital data that is present, the DPR 2005 showsyou what type of signal is present. This will help you to understand the choice of modes.When a digital source is first detected, the DPR 2005will display a message to indicate the type of bitstreambeing received. This message will appear shortly afteran input or surround mode is changed, and will remainin the Lower Display Line &for about five secondsbefore that portion of the display returns to the normalsurround mode indication.For Dolby Digital and DTS sources, a three-digit indica-tion will appear, showing the number of channels presentin the data. An example of this type of display is 3/2/.1.The first number in the display message indicates howmany discrete front-channel signals are present.• A “3” tells you that separate front left, center andfront right signals are available. This will be displayedfor Dolby Digital 5.1 and DTS 5.1 programs.• A “2” tells you that separate front left and right sig-nals are available, but there is no discrete centerchannel signal. This will be displayed for DolbyDigital bitstreams that have stereo program material.• A “1” tells you that there is only a mono channelavailable in the Dolby Digital bitstream.The middle number in the display message indicateshow many discrete surround channel signals are present.• A "3" tells you that separate, discrete left surround,center surround and right surround signals are pres-ent. This is available only on discs with DTS-ES digital audio.• A “2” tells you that separate surround left and rightsignals are available. This will be displayed for DolbyDigital 5.1 and DTS 5.1 programs.• A “1” tells you that there is only a single, surround-encoded surround channel. This will appear forDolby Digital bitstreams that have matrix encoding.• A “0” indicates that there is no surround channelinformation. This will be displayed for two-channelstereo programs.The last number indicates whether there is a discretelow-frequency effects (LFE) channel. This is the “.1” inthe common abbreviation of “5.1” sound and it is aspecial channel that contains only bass frequencies.• A “.1” tells you that an LFE channel is present. Thiswill be displayed for Dolby Digital 5.1 and DTS 5.1programs, as available.• A “0” indicates that there is no LFE channel infor-mation available. However, even when there is nodedicated LFE channel, low-frequency sound will bepresent at the subwoofer output when the speakerconfiguration is set to show the presence of a subwoofer.• The information in the right side of the display willtell you if the digital audio data contains a specialflag signal that will automatically activate the appro-priate 6.1 or 7.1 mode. This will be shown as EX-ON or EX-OFF for Dolby Digital bitstreams andES-ON or ES-OFF for DTS bitstreams.When Dolby Digital 3/2/.1 or DTS or DTS-ES signalsare being played, the DPR will automatically switch tothe proper surround mode, and no other processingmay be selected. When a Dolby Digital signal with a3/1/0 or 2/0/0 signal is detected, you may select anyof the Dolby surround modes.It is always a good idea to check the channel data tomake certain that it matches the audio logo informa-tion shown on the back of a DVD package. In somecases, you will see an indication for “2/0/0” evenwhen the disc contains a full 5.1, or 3/2/.1, signal.When this happens, check the audio output settingsfor your DVD player or the audio menu selections forthe specific disc being played to be sure that the player is sending the correct signal to the DPR.An UNLOCK message may appear in the LowerDisplay Line &.This is your indication that the digi-tal audio data stream has been interrupted or is nolonger present. When that occurs, the unit’s digital sig-nal processor has no signal to lock onto, and is thus“unlocked.” You may see this message when a DVD isfirst started until the stream is playing and the proces-sor determines which mode to apply; or any time thedata stream is stopped or paused, such as when themenus of some discs are displayed or when the playeris switching between the different sections of a disc.You may also see the message when a satellitereceiver, cable set-top or HDTV tuner is in use if thedigital audio is temporarily interrupted when channelsare changed or when a cable box switches from achannel with a digital data stream to a channel withanalog audio only. The UNLOCK message is nor-mal, and does not indicate any problem with yourreceiver. Rather, it tells you that the incoming data hassimply been paused or is not present for a variety ofpossible reasons.PCM PlaybackPCM is the abbreviation for Pulse Code Modulation,which is the type of digital signal used for standard CDplayback, and other non-Dolby Digital and non-DTSdigital sources such as Mini-Disc. When a PCM signalis detected, the Lower Display Line &will brieflyshow a message with the letters PCM, in addition to areadout of the sampling frequency of the digital signal.In most cases, this will be PCM 44.1kHz orPCM 48kHz,though in the case of speciallymastered, high-resolution audio discs, you will see aPCM 96kHz indication. Note that the sampling ratedisplayed is that of the incoming digital signal, and notthe upsampled rate that may be applied to PCM sourceswhen Dolby Pro Logic, Pro Logic II or Pro Logic IIxprocessing is applied, as shown on page 22.During PCM playback you may select any surroundmode except one of the Dolby Digital or DTS/DTS-ESmodes. However, when a CD with HDCD encoding isbeing played you must select the Surround Off (stereo)mode to take advantage of the HDCD process.HDCD PlaybackHigh Definition Compatible Digital,®or HDCD, discs arerecorded using a 20-bit encoding and other propri-etary processing for the ultimate in CD listening. WhenDPR 2005 OM   3/8/04  1:45 PM  Page 33
an HDCD-encoded disc is playing and the CD player is connected using a digital connection, theDPR 2005 will automatically recognize the HDCDencoding and activate the circuits required for properplayback, provided that the Surround Off mode isselected. An HDCD message will appear in the LowerDisplay Line &to confirm the HDCD playback.HDCD playback is limited to two-channel stereo only.Speaker/Channel IndicatorsIn addition to the bitstream indicators, the DPR 2005features channel-input indicators that show how manychannels of digital information are being receivedand/or whether the digital signal is interrupted (seeFigure 15).Figure 15These indicators are the L/C/R/LFE/SL/SR/SBL/SBRletters that are inside the center boxes of theSpeaker/Channel Input Indicators %on the front-panel. When a standard analog signal is in use, onlythe “L” and “R” indicators will light, as analog signalshave only left and right channels.Digital signals, may have two, five, six or seven chan-nels; depending on the program material, its method oftransmission and the way in which it was encoded.When a digital signal is playing, the letters in theseindicators will light in response to the signal beingreceived. It is important to note that although DolbyDigital, for example, is referred to as a “5.1” system,not all Dolby Digital DVDs or programs are encodedfor 5.1. Thus, it is sometimes normal for a DVD with aDolby Digital soundtrack to trigger only the “L” and “R”indicators.NOTE: Many DVD discs are recorded with both “5.1”and “2.0,” and Dolby Digital and DTS versions of thesame soundtrack. When playing a DVD, always becertain to check the type of material on the disc. Mostdiscs show this information using icons on the back ofthe disc jacket. When a disc offers multiple soundtrackchoices, you may have to make some adjustments toyour DVD player (usually with the “Audio Select” buttonor in a menu screen on the disc) to send a full 5.1feed to the DPR 2005 or to select between DolbyDigital or DTS. It is also possible for the type of signalfeed to change during the course of a DVD’s play-back. In some cases, the previews or special materialwill be recorded in 2.0 audio, while the main feature isavailable in 5.1 audio. The DPR 2005 will automaticallysense changes to the bitstream and channel countand reflect them in these indicators.The letters used by the Speaker/Channel InputIndicators %also flash to indicate when a bitstreamhas been interrupted. This will happen when a digitalinput source is selected before the playback starts, orwhen a digital source such as a DVD is paused. Theflashing indicators, along with the UNLOCK mes-sage in the Lower Display Line &,remind you that the playback has stopped due to the absence of a digital signal and not through any fault of theDPR 2005. This is normal, and the digital playback will resume once the playback is started again.Night ModeA special feature of Dolby Digital is the Night mode,which enables specially encoded Dolby Digital inputsources to be played back with full digital intelligibilitywhile reducing the minimum peak level by 1/4 to 1/3.This prevents abruptly loud transitions from disturbingothers, without reducing the impact of the digitalsource. The Night mode is available only when DolbyDigital signals with special data are being played.The Night mode may be engaged when a DolbyDigital DVD is playing by pressing the Night ModeButton Ton the remote. Next, press the ⁄/¤Navigation Button oto select either the middlerange or full compression versions of the Night mode. To turn the Night mode off, press the ⁄/¤Navigation Button ountil the message in thelower third of the video display and in the LowerDisplay Line &reads D-RANGE OFF.The Night mode may also be selected to always be onat either level of compression using the options in theDOLBY SURR menu. See page 23 for informa-tion on using the menus to set this option.MP3 Audio PlaybackThe DPR 2005 is one of the few receivers equippedfor onboard decoding for the MP3 audio format usedby computers and portable audio devices. By offeringMP3 decoding, the DPR 2005 is able to deliver pre-cise conversion of the digital signals to an analog out-put, along with the benefits of listening to the MP3audio through the DPR 2005’s high-power amplifierand the speakers from your surround system, ratherthan the smaller speakers and low-powered amplifierstypically used with computers.To take advantage of the DPR 2005’s MP3 capabili-ties, simply connect the S/P-DIF output of a comput-er’s sound card or the S/P-DIF output of a portabledigital audio device to either the rear panel DigitalInputs fl‡ or the front-panel Digital InputsHJ.When the digital signal is available, the Lower Display Line &will indicate that an MP3 bitstreamis present, and the audio will begin playing.NOTES:• The DPR 2005 is only capable of playing signals inthe MP3 (MPEG 1/Layer 3) format. It is not com-patible with other computer audio codecs.• The digital audio input signal may be either opticalor coaxial, but the signal must be in the S/P-DIFformat. Direct connection of USB or serial data outputs is not possible, even though the signals are in the MP3 format. If you have any questionsabout the data output format from your computer or a sound card, check with the device’s owner’smanual.• If your computer or sound card’s digital output is notcapable of direct connection to the DPR 2005, youmay use an optional, external transcoder to convertthe USB output of a computer to a format compati-ble with the DPR.• Due to the wide variation in MP3 formats andencoding speeds, it is possible that the DPR 2005may not be compatible with all MP3 input signals.Some may produce unacceptable results or maynot be decoded. This is not a fault of either thecomputer or the DPR 2005, but rather a by-productof the unpredictable nature of MP3 playback.• Even when your computer does not have a digitaloutput that is compatible with the DPR 2005, youmay connect the analog audio output available onvirtually all computers to one of the DPR’s analogaudio inputs using an optional adaptor cable thatconverts the stereo mini plug commonly used forcomputer audio connections to the left/right RCAjacks used on the DPR. Connecting your computerto the DPR will enable you to take advantage of the high-quality audio reproduction possible with ahome theater system, as well as enable the use ofsurround processing modes such as Logic 7, togreatly enhance downloaded or streaming audioplayback.IMPORTANT NOTES ON DIGITAL PLAYBACK:• When the digital playback source is stopped, or in a pause, fast forward or search mode, digitalaudio data will momentarily stop, and the channelposition letters inside the Speaker/Channel InputIndicators %will flash and an UNLOCK mes-sage may appear. This is normal and does not indi-cate a problem with either the DPR 2005 or thesource machine. The DPR 2005 will return to digitalplayback as soon as the data is available.OPERATION34 OPERATION  DPR 2005 OM   3/8/04  1:45 PM  Page 34
OPERATIONOPERATION  35OPERATION• Some source devices, particularly cable set-topboxes, will switch back and forth between digital andanalog audio outputs, depending on the channelbeing watched. To avoid losing sound with this typeof product, it is recommended that you connectboth the digital and analog audio outputs of thesource to the DPR 2005, with the digital audio inputset as the default following the steps shown onpage 21. The DPR will monitor the digital datastream and when it is interrupted the sound willmute briefly and possibly display an UNLOCKmessage while it switches to the analog audio input.This switching is not a fault of either the DPR or thecable box, as it is caused by the use of differentaudio technologies on different channels by thecable company or program supplier.• Although the DPR 2005 will decode virtually all currentDVD movies, CDs and HDTV sources,it may not becompatible with future digital sources.• When a digital source is playing, you may not beable to select some of the analog surround modessuch as Dolby Pro Logic II, Dolby Pro Logic IIx,Dolby 3, Stereo, Hall, Theater or Logic 7.• When a Dolby Digital or DTS source is playing,it is not possible to make an analog recording usingthe Tape Outputs ⁄and Video 1 or Video 2Audio Outputs £∞.However, the digital signalswill be passed through to the Digital AudioOutputs °·J.Tuner OperationThe DPR 2005’s tuner is capable of tuning AM, FMand FM Stereo broadcast stations.

MULTIROOM OPERATIONMULTIROOM OPERATION  39The DPR 2005 is fully equipped to operate as thecontrol center for a complete multiroom system that iscapable of sending one source to a second zone inthe house while a separate source is listened to in themain room. In addition to providing for control over theselection of the remote source and its volume, theDPR 2005 offers a comprehensive range of optionsfor powering the speakers in the second zone.■Using the line-level Multiroom Audio Outputs ª,the selected source may be fed to optional, exter-nal power amplifiers that may be matched to thespecifics of the installation.■When the main room system is configured for 5.1operation, the Surround Back Left/Right amplifierchannels may be used to power the remote zoneso that no additional amplifiers are required.■Using built-in A-BUS Ready technology, optional A-BUS modules may be connected to theDPR 2005 via a single Category 5/5e or higherwire, so that remote zone speakers may be pow-ered directly from the A-BUS module without theneed for additional power, IR sensor or volumecontrol wires to be run to the second zone.In addition, the DPR 2005 includes a remote IR sen-sor input so that remote control commands from the Zone II remote included with the unit may be transmittedto the unit, while standard IR input/output jacks allowthe remote zone’s commands to be sent to compatibleIR-controlled source devices.InstallationAlthough simple remote room systems may beinstalled by the average do-it-yourself hobbyist,the complexity of many multizone/multiroom systemsinvolves running wires inside walls where the servicesofa specially trained installer may be required. Regard-less of who does the work, please remember thatlocal building codes govern in-wall electrical work,including proper specification of any wiring used andthe way in which it is connected. You are responsiblefor making certain that all multiroom installation work isdone properly and in compliance with all applicablecodes and regulations.For installations using optional, external amplifiers inOption 1 or Option 2, follow the instructions shown onpage 17.For installations where the Surround Back Left/Rightamplifier channels are used to power the remote zone,make certain that the system is installed and configuredfor that type of operation, as shown. In Option 3 onpage 17 and in the MULTI-ROOM SETUPmenu as shown on this page.For installations where A-BUS modules are used, fol-low the instructions provided with the A-BUS remotemodules or keypads.RS-232 ControlThe DPR 2005 is rare among A/V receivers in that itprovides the capability for full bidirectional remote con-trol with confirmation control acknowledgement fromcompatible computers or specialized remote controlsystems. RS-232 programming requires specializedprogramming knowledge and for that reason we rec-ommend that it only be done by qualified installers.For more information on using the RS-232 port forremote control, visit the Harman Kardon Web site atwww.harmankardon.com or contact a custom installertrained in RS-232 controlled systems.Multiroom SetupOnce the audio and IR link connections have beenmade, the DPR 2005 needs to be configured for multi-room operation. Press the OSD Button Uto bringthe MASTER MENU (Figure 1) to the screen.Press the ¤Navigation Button o,until the on-screen ➔cursor is next to the MULTI-ROOMline. Press the Set Button qto enter theMULTI-ROOM SETUP menu (Figure 17).Figure 17When the MULTI-ROOM SETUP menuappears, the on-screen ➔cursor will be at theMULTI-ROOM line. Since this line is used toturn the system on and off, don’t make an adjustmenthere unless you wish to turn the system on at this time.To turn the system on, press the ›Navigation Buttonoso that ON is highlighted. If you do not wish toturn the system on at this time or to proceed to thenext step, press the ¤Navigation Button oonce so that the ➔on-screen cursor is next to theMULTI IN line.At the MULTI IN line, press the ‹/›NavigationButton ountil the desired input to the multiroom system appears in the highlighted video.In addition to the standard inputs, a choice is availablelabeled MAIN DOWNMIX.In all other cases,the feed to the multiroom system may be differentfrom the input selected for the main room, but theinput must be analog. When MAIN DOWNMIXis selected as the multiroom system input you may lis-ten to an “Lt/Rt” stereo version of any digital sourceplaying in the main room, such as Dolby Digital orDTS. You may also use this mode to listen to a sourceconnected to the 8-Channel Direct Inputs fiin theremote zone, as long as the Dolby Pro Logic IIx modeis activated. Note, however, that when MAINDOWNMIX is selected as the input for the multi-room system, the source sent to the remote room willchange any time the main room input is changed.When the selection has been made, press the ¤Navigation Button oonce so that the ➔on-screen cursor is next to the MULTI VOL line.At the MULTI VOL line, press the ‹/›Navigation Button ountil the desired volume level for the multiroom system is entered. DO NOT use the regular volume control knobs for this setting.When all settings for the multiroom setup have beenmade, press the ⁄/¤Navigation Button ountil the on-screen ➔cursor is next to the BACKTO MASTER MENU line.However, if you have connected both the digital andanalog outputs of a source such as a DVD player tothe DPR, you may select that source for the remoteroom. The DPR will automatically switch to the analogconnection for playback in the remote room withoutaffecting multichannel playback from the digital link inthe main room.Surround Amplifier Channel AssignmentThe DPR 2005 is equipped with seven full-poweramplifier channels to allow for complete 7.1-channeloperation without the need for additional externalamplifiers. However, in some installations you may wishto use the traditional 5.1-channel configuration for themain listening room, which allows the surround backleft/right amplifier channels to be used to powerspeakers placed in a remote zone location.If you wish to use the Surround Back amplifier chan-nels to power the remote zone, press the ⁄/¤Navigation Button ountil the ➔cursor is pointingto the SB AMPS line on the MULTI-ROOMSETUP menu. Press the ‹/›Navigation Buttonountil MULTI is highlighted in reverse videoand press the Set Button q.Remember that once this setting is made, you will not be able to take advantage of any of the 6.1/7.1-channel decoding or processing modes, and that thespeakers used for the remote zone must be connectedto the Surround Back/Multiroom Speaker Outputsg.The volume for these speakers is set by the multiroom system, as explained on this page. * MULTI-ROOM SETUP *MULTI-ROOM:OFF ONMULTI IN  :FM PRESET01MULTI VOL :25dBSB AMPS   :MAIN MULTI BACK TO MASTER MENU→DPR 2005 OM   3/8/04  1:45 PM  Page 39
Once this setting is made, you may press the ⁄/¤Navigation Button oto make any of the otheradjustments available on this menu. If no other adjust-ments are needed, press the OSD Button Uto exitthe menu system.Multiroom OperationWhen operating the DPR 2005 from a remote roomlocation where an IR sensor link has been connectedto the DPR 2005’s rear-panel Multiroom IR InputU,you may use either the main remote control orthe Zone II remote. To turn on the multiroom feed,press the AVR Selector e∫to turn the unit on to the last source, or any of the other SelectorButtonsç∂dXh to turn on to a specific source.As long as an IR feed to the DPR 2005 has beenestablished from the remote room, using any of thebuttons on either remote will control the remote loca-tion volume rî,change the tuner frequencywÉ,change the tuner preset v©or mutethe output W˚.If the Remote IR Output Jack Won the DPR 2005 is connected to an IR Input jack on compatibleHarman Kardon audio components such as CD, DVDor cassette players, the transport functions of thosemachines may also be controlled using the TransportControls tuƒ©˙∆on eitherremote control.To turn the system off from the remote room, pressthe Power Off Button aå.Remember that theDPR 2005 may be turned on or off from the remoteroom, regardless of the system’s operation or status inthe main room.NOTE: When the tuner is selected as the source forthe remote zone, any change to the frequency or pre-set will also change the station being listened to in themain room, if the tuner is in use there. Similarly, ifsomeone in the main room changes the station, thechange will also have an impact on the remote room.To turn on the Multiroom system from the main listen-ing room, press the Multiroom ButtonQon theremote. When the MULTI ON/OFF messageappears in the on-screen display and the LowerDisplay Line &,press the Set Button qandthen press the ⁄/¤Navigation Button osothat display changes to MULTI ON.Press theSet Button qagain to activate the setting. Notethat this method may be used to turn the Multiroomsystem on or off even when the DPR is in the Standbymode in the main listening room.When the Multiroom system is turned on, the inputselected using the Multiroom menu will be fed to theMultiroom Audio Outputs ªon the rear panel aswell as the A-BUS Connector X.The volume will beas set in the previous selection, although it may also beadjusted using an optional IR sensor and the Zone IIremote in the remote location, or the A-BUS keypad,or on the optional audio power amplifier connected tothe Multiroom Audio Outputs ª.Although changes to the input source or remote roomvolume will normally be made using an IR sensor inthe remote room that is connected to the DPR, it isalso possible to change those settings from the mainlistening room. This is useful for situations where someor all of the remote rooms do not have an IR sensor,or to take control over the remote room without actu-ally being in that room.In addition to using the MULTI-ROOMSETUP menu, as shown on the previous page, youmay change the source or volume in the remote zoneusing the remote. Press the Multiroom Button `on the remote, and when the MULTI ON/OFFmessage appears in the on-screen display and theLower Display Line &,press the Set Button qand then press the ⁄/¤Navigation Button ototoggle past that message to MULTI LEVELor MULTI INPUT.To change the remote room’s input source, whenMULTI INPUT appears, press the Set Buttonq,and then press the ⁄/¤Navigation Buttonountil the desired input appears in the on-screendisplay and in the Lower Display Line &.To change the remote room’s volume, whenMULTI LEVEL appears, press the Set Buttonq,and press the ⁄/¤Navigation Button oto change the volume setting. Note that this volumeadjustment controls the level for the output to theMultiroom Audio Outputsªand for any speakersconnected to the Surround Back/MultiroomSpeaker Outputs gwhen the Surround Backamplifier channels are configured for Multiroom use,as shown on page 39. This adjustment does NOTchange the volume level for any room where an A-BUS module is used, as that setting is onlyadjustable using the A-BUS module’s volume control or built-in IR sensor.Once the Multiroom system is turned on, it will remainon even if the DPR 2005 is placed in the Standbymode in the main room by pressing the Power OffButtonåor the Main Power Switch Aon thefront panel.The Multiroom system will remain on even if the unit is turned off in the main room. In that event,although front-panel indicators and the accent lighting around the volume control will turn off, aMULTI-ROOM ON message will remain in the Lower Display Line &to remind you thatpower is still applied to the unit, and that it is beingused for Multiroom operation elsewhere in the house.Remember that if you turn the unit completely off bypressing the Main Power Switch A,the feed to the second zone will also be turned off.When the DPR 2005 is turned off in the main room,the Multiroom system may be turned on at any timeby pressing the Multiroom Button `,or any of theSelector Buttons∫ç∂in the remote room.NOTES ON MULTIROOM OPERATION:• The Zone II remote does not contain a button forthe front-panel Video 5 input, but you may selectthat source for the Multiroom system using theMULTI-ROOM SETUP menu or anoptional remote that has been programmed with thecode for the Video 5 button from the DPR’s mainremote control.• In addition to the Zone II remote supplied with yourDPR, you may use the main remote control or anyremote programmed with Harman Kardon codes.Note, however, that only the remote codes applica-ble to the remote room system or the operation ofsource devices will function. Buttons used to changeother “Main Room” listening functions such as sur-round mode changes will not work with the multi-room system.40  MULTIROOM OPERATIONMULTIROOM OPERATIONDPR 2005 OM   3/8/04  1:45 PM  Page 40
CONFIGURING THE REMOTECONFIGURING THE REMOTE  41The DPR 2005 remote is factory-programmed for all functions needed to operate the unit. In addition,it is also preprogrammed to operate most recent Harman Kardon DVD players and changers, CD players and changers, CD recorders and cassettedecks. The codes for other brand devices may be programmed into the DPR 2005 remote using its extensive library of remote codes or a head-to-headlearning process for codes not in the internal library.Programming Remote CodesThanks to the remote’s advanced technology and two-line LCD display, it is no longer necessary to look up cumbersome codes when programming theremote; following the steps outlined below, you simplysearch for the brand name from the remote’s memory.We recommend that you first try the preprogrammedcode entry method. If that procedure is not successful,then try the code-learning method.Preprogrammed Code EntryThe easiest way to program the remote for operationwith a source device from another brand is to followthese steps:1. Turn on the power to the device you wish to pro-gram into the DPR remote. This is important, as in alater step you will need to see whether the deviceturns off to determine whether the remote has beenprogrammed for the proper remote codes.2. Press and hold the Program Button yforabout three seconds while the message shown in Figure 18 appears in the remote’s LCDInformation Display c.Release the buttonwhen the red light under the Set Button qappears.Figure 183. The remote’s MAIN MENU message (Figure 19), will appear in the LCD display and the Set Button qwill remain illuminated in red. Press the Set Button qto begin the process of selecting a device and locating the proper remote codes.Figure 194. SELECT A DEVICE will appear in the LCDdisplay (Figure 20). Press the ⁄/¤NavigationButton oto scroll through the list of devicecategories and press the Set Button qwhenthe device you wish to set the codes for appears.For this example, we will select “TV” to enter thecodes needed to operate your TV.Figure 20NOTE: The codes for both stand-alone and satellite-based hard-drive recorder products (PVR) such as TiVo®and Replay TV®are found regardless of their brand byselecting VCR as the device.5. At the next menu screen on the remote (Figure21), press the Set Button qto enter theManual mode, which means that you will selectthe brand name of the device from the list pro-grammed into the remote’s memory.Figure 216. The next menu screen on the remote (Figure 22)will show the start of the list of available brands.Press the ⁄/¤Navigation Buttons ountilthe brand name of the device you are program-ming into the remote appears on the lower line ofthe display and then press the Set Button q.Figure 22NOTE: If the brand name for the product you wish toprogram does not appear in the list, the codes maystill be available, as some manufacturers share codes.If the desired brand is not listed, press the ClearButton jto exit the programming process,and skip to the instructions shown on page 42 for the“Automatic” method of programming the remote. Ifdesired, or if the codes for your brand are not part of the remote’s library at all, you may still use theremote to program most infrared-controlled productsby “learning” the commands from the product’s original remote into the DPR remote. The instructionsfor Learning Commands are on page 42.7. The next step is important, as it determines whichcodes will operate the source device or display.Point the DPR remote at the device being pro-grammed and, following the instructions shown inthe remote’s LCD Information Display c,press and release the Numeric Keys kshown on the menu screen (Figure 23) one at a time,starting with the “1” button. After you press the“1” Button k,the remote’s LCD screen willbriefly go blank as the code is being transmitted,but you will see the “transmit” icon  in theupper right corner of the display to serve as confirmation that the remote is sending out commands.Figure 238. After you press and release the number key,watch the device being programmed to seewhether it turns off. As shown in the instructionsthat will appear on the next menu screen (Figure 24), if your device has turned off, pressthe Set Button q,and then skip to Step 10. Ifthe unit does not turn off, proceed to the next step.Figure 249. If the device being programmed into the DPRremote does not turn off after you have pressedthe “1” Button k,repeat Steps 7 and 8 bypressing the available numeric keys shown untilthe device turns off. If the device still does not turnoff after all choices have been tried, or if there isonly one number key shown as available to try,the code for this specific device is not in the DPRremote library under that brand name. If that is thecase, press the Clear Button jto exit themanual programming mode. Remember that thecodes may still be stored in the DPR remote’slibrary under another brand, and you can have theremote control search for them by following theinstructions below for automatic programming. Youmay also manually “learn” the codes for mostdevices into the DPR remote by following theLearning Commands instructions on page 42.10. When the device being programmed does turn offafter a numeric key has been pressed, you mustpress the Set Button qwithin five seconds toenter the setting into the remote’s memory. Afteryou press the Set Button q,the top line of theLCD display will read SAVING… and then theword SAVED will flash four times in the center ofthe bottom line.11. When the codes are saved, the remote will returnto normal operation, and whenever you press the Input Selector Button dthat was justprogrammed, the codes for the new device will be used.NOTE: Some brands share a common remote controlcode for “Power Off” for many models. For that reasonit is possible that even though the remote appears tobe properly programmed, you may find that some but-tons do not appear to issue the correct command. Ifthis is the case, repeat the procedure outlined above,but if more than one numeric key selection is suggestedin Step 7, try a different number to see whether theremote operates correctly. Although the DPR remote ispreprogrammed with an extensive library of codes formany major brands, it is also possible that you mayhave attempted to program a product that is too newor too old, and thus not all of its commands will be inthe code library. You may fill in the codes for any buttonPOWER OFF?

that does not operate properly by using the learningtechnique shown on page 42.Automatic Code EntryIn addition to manual code selection using the brandname list, it is also possible to automatically searchthrough all the codes that are stored in the DPR remote’slibrary to see whether a device will respond even if it is not listed among the brands that appear when you program the remote manually. To automatically searchthrough the codes that are available for a specific devicetype (e.g., DVD, VCR), follow these steps:1. Turn on the power to the device you wish to program into the DPR remote. This is important because in a later step you will need to see whetherthe device turns off to determine whether the remotehas been programmed for the proper remote codes.2. Press and hold the Program Button yforabout three seconds while the message shown in Figure 18 appears in the remote’s LCDInformation Display c.Release the buttonwhen the red light under the Set Button qappears.3. The remote’s MAIN MENU message (Figure19) will appear in the LCD display and the SetButton qwill remain illuminated in red. Pressthe Set Button qto begin the process ofselecting a device and locating the proper remote codes.4. SELECT A DEVICE will appear in the LCDdisplay (Figure 20). Press the ⁄/¤NavigationButton oto scroll through the list of devicecategories and press the Set Button qwhenthe device for which you wish to set the codesappears. For this example, we will select “TV” toenter the codes needed to operate your TV.5. At the next menu screen on the remote, press the⁄Navigation Button oso that the bottom lineof the LCD display reads AUTO (Figure 25) andthen press the Set Button qto enter theAutomatic programming mode.Figure 256. As instructed on the next menu screen, press the ⁄Navigation Button oto begin theautomatic code search process. Your confirmation that the remote is sending out commands is themovement of a square block across the top lineof the LCD display screen while the bottom linereads PLEASE WAIT….You will also see thetransmit icon in the upper right corner of the LCDdisplay’s top line to remind you that the remote isworking even though you may not see anythinghappening to the device being programmed.7. It will take a few seconds for the remote to sendout the first group of commands, after which youwill see a new display in the LCD screen, asshown in Figure 26. Following the instructions, ifthe device being programmed has not turned off,press the ⁄Navigation Button oagain tosend another group of codes. If the device beingprogrammed has turned off, skip to Step 9.Figure 268. By pressing the ⁄Navigation Button oagain, the remote will send out a new set of commands. When it pauses, follow the instructionsshown in Step 7. Depending on how many codesare stored for a specific device type, you mayhave to repeat this process as many as fifteentimes. Remember, if the device turns off, skip toStep 9. When all the codes for the device beingprogrammed have been tried, the instructionshown in Figure 27 will appear. This means thatthe codes for the product you are trying to pro-gram are not in the DPR remote library and youwill have to “learn” them into the remote followingthe instructions shown in the next section. Pressthe Set Button qas instructed to exit the programming process.Figure 279. If the device being programmed does turn off after following the instructions in Step 7, you will need to verify the code set by pressing theNumeric Keys kin sequence, as instructed inFigure 26. Point the remote at the device beingprogrammed, and press the “1” Button ktosee whether the device turns back on.10. After pressing and releasing the “1” Button k,check to see whether the device has turned backon. If it has, skip to Step 12. If it does not turn off,press the “2” Button k,or the next button inthe numeric sequence if you are repeating the procedure, as instructed by the LCD screen inFigure 28.Figure 2811. When pressing the “1” button does not turn the device being programmed back on, repeat the procedure by trying the remainder of theNumeric Keys kin sequence, each timepressing and then releasing the button to seewhether the new device turns back on. When itdoes, skip to the next step. However, if you try all10 numeric keys and find that the unit will not turnon, you won’t be able to use this method to pro-gram the device. Press the Clear Button jtoexit the programming process. You’ll need to followthe Learning Commands instructions below to enterthe codes for this device into the DPR remote.12. When pressing one of the numeric keys in Step10 or 11 causes the device being programmedto turn back on, follow the instructions shown inFigure 26 and press the Set Button qwithinfive seconds of the device turning on. After youpress the Set button, the top line of the LCD dis-play will read SAVING… and then the wordSAVED will flash four times in the center of thebottom line.13. When the codes are saved, the remote will returnto normal operation, and whenever you press the Input Selector Button dthat was just programmed, the codes for the new device will be used.Learning CommandsOn occasions when the DPR remote does not containthe codes for a particular product’s remote in its built-in library, or when you wish to program a missing orspecial function into one button of a device, the DPRremote’s learning capability allows you to do that. Toteach commands from one product’s remote into theDPR remote, follow the steps below:The process requires that both the device’s originalremote and the DPR remote be available. Beforepressing any buttons on either remote, place them sothat the IR transmitter on the remote from the deviceto be programmed is facing the Infrared Lens kon the DPR remote. The two remotes should be nomore than an inch apart, and there should not be anydirect sunlight or other bright light source near theremotes.1. Press and hold the Program Button yforabout three seconds while the message shown in Figure 18 appears in the remote’s LCDInformation Display c.Release the buttonwhen the red light under the Set Button qappears.2.

When the display shown inFigure 32 is on the LCD screen on the DPRremote, you may press the Set Button qtolearn additional codes from the buttons on asource remote into the DPR remote. Follow Steps4 through 6 as often as needed to complete thecode-learning process.10. If you wish to change the name that appears in the LCD display when the button that has just had a new code learned is pressed, press the ⁄Navigation Button oso that the displayshown in Figure 35 appears in the LCD display.Press the Set Button qto be taken to aRENAME KEY display. Enter the new name forthe key following the instructions shown in theRenaming Individual Keys section of this manualon page 49. If you find it more convenient torename the buttons at a later time, you may dothat separately by following the instructions onpage 48.Figure 3511. When you have programmed all keys for thedesired device, press the ⁄Navigation Button otwice when the LEARN MENU(Figure 32) appears so that you see the displayshown in Figure 36. Press the Set Button qto return the remote to normal operation.Figure 3612. If you wish to program the codes for anotherdevice, repeat the procedure outline above, butselect a different device in Step 3.Changing DevicesIn the factory default settings, the DPR remote is programmed so that the commands transmitted correspond to the device selected by pressing one of the Input Selectors3.This is logical, as youwant the remote to control the device you have selected.However, in some circumstances you may have con-figured your system so that the devices connected to the DPR 2005 do not correspond to the defaultdevice settings and the legends printed on the remote.For example, if your system has two VCRs you mayconnect the second VCR to the VID 2 input. There isno problem in doing that, but in normal operation thecommands issued after selecting the VID 2 input arefor a television, not a VCR.The DPR remote allows you to correct that situationthrough the “Changing Devices” process. This enablesyou to assign the codes from one type of device to a different button. For example, in the steps below,we will explain how to program the VID 2 buttons toprovide the commands to operate a VCR. Of course,you may program the remote to have any of thedevices take on the code set of any other device, asyour system requires. And, with the DPR remote’s“Rename” function, you can even change the way the name of the device appears on the remote’s LCDdisplay so that you see exactly which commands arebeing sent.To program the buttons normally assigned to onedevice for the commands of another, follow thesesteps:1. Press and hold the Program ButtonOforabout three seconds while the message shown in Figure 18 appears in the remote’s LCDInformation Display2.Release the buttonwhen the red light under the Set Button qappears.2. The remote’s MAIN MENU message (Figure18), will appear in the LCD display and the SetButton qwill remain illuminated in red. Pressthe ⁄Navigation Button otwice so thatCHANGE DEVICE appears on the bottom lineof the LCD screen, as shown in Figure 37. Pressthe Set Button qto begin the process ofreassigning the commands used for a particulardevice.Figure 373. The next menu display is where you select theInput Select, or device, that you wish to change.When the display shown in Figure 38 appears,press the ⁄/¤Navigation Button oto scrollthrough the list to find the device you wish to usefor another function.

“TV,” and show how to change it to take on thecodes for operating a VCR. When that device’sname appears, press the Set Buttonq.Figure 384. Once the “old” device type has been selected,you need to tell the remote which set of remotecodes to use as a replacement for the device justselected.When the instructions shown in Figure39 appear, press the ⁄/¤Navigation Buttonoto scroll through the list of device categoriesto find the name of the device that you wish touse. The old device name will remain on the leftside of the LCD screen, while the replacementdevice list will scroll to its right. For example, pressthe ⁄Navigation Button ountil the displayscreen reads TV<-VCR to have the VID 2/TVButton transmit the commands used to control aVCR. Press the Set Button qwhen thedesired device combination appears.Figure 395. Once the new device is selected, the remainder ofthe process will select the codes for the specificbrand to be used, and for that reason they areidentical to the way a device is programmed usingmanual entry. Continue the process as outlined inthe next few steps, remembering that if the codesfor your specific device are not found, you mayselect any brand and then “learn” the propercodes into the DPR remote using the processoutlined on page 42. To begin the process, startby selecting the brand of device, as shown inFigure 22. Press the ⁄/¤Navigation Buttonountil the brand name of the device you are programming into the remote appears on the lower line of the display and then press the Set Button q.6. The next step is important, as it determines whichcodes will operate the source device or display.Point the DPR remote at the device being pro-grammed and, following the instructions shown on the remote’s LCD Information Display2,press and release the Numeric KeysAone ata time, starting with the “1” ButtonA.Afteryou press the “1” ButtonA,the remote’s LCD screen will briefly go blank as the code isbeing transmitted,but you will see the “transmit”icon in the upper right corner of the display toserve as confirmation that the remote is sendingout commands.7. After you press and release the number key,watch the device being programmed to seewhether it turns off. As shown in the instructionsthat will appear on the next menu screen (Figure24), press the Set Button q,and then skip to Step 9. If the unit does not turn off, proceed to the next step.8. If the device being programmed into the DPRremote does not turn off after you have pressedthe “1” ButtonA,continue Steps 6 and 7 bypressing the available numeric keys shown untilthe device turns off. If the device still does not turnoff after all choices have been tried, the code forthis specific device is not in the DPR remotelibrary under that brand name. If that is the case,we suggest that you press the Set Button qto accept the codes from another brand so thatthe programming is completed, but rememberthat you will then have to program the remotemanually by following the Learning Commandsinstructions on page 42.9. When the device being programmed does turn offafter a numeric key has been pressed, you mustpress the Set Button qwithin five seconds toenter the setting into the remote’s memory. Afteryou press the Set button, the top line of the LCDdisplay will read SAVING... and then the wordSAVED will flash four times in the center of thebottom line.10. When the codes are saved the remote will returnto normal operation, and whenever you press the Input Selector Button3that was justprogrammed, the display will show the originaldevice type code at the far left side of the display,with the name of the new code set type in brack-ets. For example, the display will read TV<-VCRin our example of replacing the TV codes withthose for a VCR.Macro ProgrammingMacros enable you to easily repeat frequently usedcombinations of multiple remote control commandswith the touch of a single button. Once a macro is programmed, you may send up to 20 commands withone press of the Power On or Macro buttons. This willgreatly simplify the process of turning on your system,changing devices or other common tasks. Thanks to the remote’s two-line display, it is easier than everfor you to take advantage of the power of macro commands.Recording a MacroTo record a macro into the remote’s memory, followthese steps:1. Press and hold the Program Buttonyforabout three seconds while the message shown in Figure 18 appears in the remote’s LCDInformation Display2.Release the buttonwhen the red light under the Set Button qappears.2. The remote’s MAIN MENU message (Figure19), will appear in the LCD display and the SetButton qwill remain illuminated in red. Pressthe ⁄Navigation Button othree times sothat MACRO appears on the bottom line of theLCD screen, as shown in Figure 40. Press theSet Button qto enter the main macro menubranch.Figure 403. At the next menu screen (Figure 41) press the Set Button qto begin recording a macro.Figure 414. The next display screen (Figure 42) is where youselect the button that will be used to recall themacro. The choices are the Power On Button1or one of the discrete Macro ButtonsR.Press the ⁄/¤Navigation Button ountil thename of the button you wish to program themacro into is shown. For this example we willshow how to program a series of commands thatwill automatically be sent out every time thePower button is pressed.Figure 425. The next screen that appears (Figure 43) is whereyou select the device for the first command thatwill be sent out as part of the macro. Press the⁄/¤Navigation Button ountil the name ofthe device appears on the left side of the lowerline in the LCD display. For this example, the firstbutton we want to have the macro “press” is thePower On button, so the DPR device is selected.Press the Set Button qwhen the desireddevice name appears to move to the next pro-gramming step.Figure 436. The next display (Figure 44) is where you beginentering the individual commands for the macro,in the order you wish them to be transmitted.Remember that when you want to change devices,SELECT A DEVICEAVRRECORD A MACROPOWER ONMACRORECORD A MACROMAIN MENUMACRONEW DEVICE TYPETV<-VCROLD DEVICE TYPETV44  CONFIGURING THE REMOTECONFIGURING THE REMOTEDPR 2005 OM   3/8/04  1:45 PM  Page 44
CONFIGURING THE REMOTE  45CONFIGURING THE REMOTEyou must first press the Input Selectors dfor that button, and then press the Command orFunction key. Since we want to program a series of events that occur each time the Power On button is pressed, press the DPR button. In yourspecific macro, this is the first command button.Figure 447. The next display (Figure 45) and the subsequentscreens are where the actual macro programmingtakes place. The words at the left side of the topline of the display show the button that is beingprogrammed (e.g., the Power On Button1orone of the Macro Buttons R) and the indica-tion at the right side of the top line shows thenumber of macro steps available of 20 possiblesteps. Following the instructions on the remote’sLCD screen, press the first key you wish to betransmitted in the macro. In our example, we firstwant the DPR 2005 to turn on, so the PowerButton1should be pressed.Figure 458. Once the first command button for the macro hasbeen pressed, continue to press the buttons youwish to be part of the macro, in the order they willbe used. Press each button within five seconds ofthe last button, remembering to press the InputSelector3when you are changing devicefunctions. As the buttons on the remote arepressed,the remote’s display screen will show thesteps in the macro as they are programmed(Figure 46).Figure 469. For our example, we first want the DPR Power On button pressed, followed by the TV Power On,followed by the Cable Box On, followed by theselection of the Logic 7 mode. To do that, pressthe buttons in this order:• Power On1• VID 2/TV3• Power On1• VID 3/Cable3• Power On1• DPR4• Logic 7hAs each button is pressed to enter it into themacro, you will see the button names appear andthen scroll up on the LCD display as your confir-mation of the key entry (Figure 46).10. When all commands for the macro have beenentered, press the Set Buttonqto save themacro. The display screen will show the button to which the macro has been programmed andthe number of steps used, and the word SAVEDwill blink four times in the lower line of the LCD display. When the display returns to normal, themacro has been entered and the remote is readyfor operation.11. If a macro has been programmed into the PowerOn Button1,it will play back anytime thePower On button is pressed. As the macro plays,you will see the steps appear in the remote’s LCDdisplay. Macros programmed into one of the fourdiscrete Macro buttons may be activated at anytime by pressing the appropriate button.Erasing a MacroOnce a macro has been created and stored in theDPR remote’s memory, you have the option of erasingit. You may do this at any time by following thesesteps:1. Press and hold the Program ButtonOforabout three seconds while the message shown in Figure 18 appears in the remote’s LCDInformation Display2.Release the buttonwhen the red light under the Set Buttonqappears.2. The remote’s MAIN MENU message (Figure19), will appear in the LCD display and the SetButtonqwill remain illuminated in red. Pressthe ⁄Navigation Buttonothree times sothat MACRO appears on the bottom line of theLCD screen, as shown in Figure 40. Press theSet Buttonqto enter the main macro menubranch.3. At the next menu screen (Figure 47), press the⁄/¤Navigation Button ountil the bottomline in the remote’s LCD display reads ERASE AMACRO.Press the Set Buttonqto begin theprocess of erasing a macro.Figure 474. The next display screen (Figure 48) is where youselect which macro will be erased. Press the⁄/¤Navigation Button ountil the numberof the macro you wish to erase appears. For this example we will erase the Power On macrocreated in the previous section. When the nameof the macro to be erased appears, press the Set Buttonq.Figure 485. The word ERASED will flash four times in thebottom line of the remote’s LCD display, and thenthe display will return to its normal condition.When that happens, the macro is erased and theremote is returned to normal operation.Read a MacroTo check the commands stored in the remote’s memoryfor one of the buttons, follow these steps:1. Press and hold the Program ButtonOforabout three seconds while the message shown in Figure 18 appears in the remote’s LCDInformation Display2.Release the buttonwhen the red light under the Set Buttonqappears.2. The remote’s MAIN MENU message (Figure18), will appear in the LCD display and the SetButtonqwill remain illuminated in red.

When you are finished reviewing the macro’s contents, press the Set Buttonqto return the remote to normal operation.Punch-Through ConfigurationPunch-through is a capability of the remote that allows the Volume controls, Channel Up/Down buttonsor Transport keys (Play, Stop, Record, Fast Forwardand Reverse, and Skip Up/Down) to link to a differentdevice. For example, if your TV, cable box or satellitereceiver is connected through the DPR 2005, you will most likely want to use the DPR 2005’s volume con-trol commands even when the remote has been set to issue all other commands for the video device.“Punch-through” enables you to easily program theremote to do this.Volume Punch-ThroughFollow these steps to enable the Volume Up/Downand Mute controls from one device to be used whenthe remote is otherwise programmed for a differentdevice.NOTE FOR VOLUME PUNCH-THROUGH: Theremote’s default settings are for the DPR 2005’s vol-ume controls, to be used when any input or device isselected, with the exception of the VID 2/TV button.There is no need to program the remote for volumepunch-through for the DPR 2005’s controls with othersources, such as DVD. To have the DPR 2005’s vol-ume commands used when the TV device is selected,follow these steps:1. Press and hold the Program ButtonOforabout three seconds while the message shown in Figure 18 appears in the remote’s LCDInformation Display2.Release the buttonwhen the red light under the Set Buttonqappears.2. The remote’s MAIN MENU message (Figure19), will appear in the LCD display and the SetButtonqwill remain illuminated in red. Pressthe ⁄/¤Navigation Button ountilPUNCH-THROUGH appears on the bottomline of the LCD screen, as shown in Figure 51.Press the Set Buttonqto enter the mainpunch-through menu branch.Figure 513. At the next menu screen (Figure 52) press the Set Buttonqto begin programming theremote for Volume punch-through.Figure 524. The next display screen (Figure 53) is where you select the device that will receive the punch-through commands. In our example, that is the VID 2/TV button, as that is where we want theDPR 2005’s volume controls to be active. Pressthe ⁄/¤Navigation Button ountil thename of the base device appears and then pressthe Set Buttonq.Figure 535. At the next display screen (Figure 54), you willselect the device whose Volume Up/Down andMute commands will be used. Press the ⁄/¤Navigation Button ountil the desired device’sname appears to the right of the device in use. Inour example, that is the DPR 2005 (indicated byDPR). When the desired combination of devicesappears, press the Set Buttonq.Figure 546. When the Set button is pressed, the display willchange to show you that the new combination ofcontrol commands is being saved to the unit’smemory, as shown in Figure 55. The wordSAVED will flash four times and then the remotewill return to normal operation.Figure 557. Once the punch-through is programmed, the Volume Up/Down and Mute buttons of the seconddevice named will be used when those buttonsHWare pressed while the master device is in use.Returning the Volume Control Settings to Default OperationIf you wish to remove the Volume punch-through sothat the commands for Volume and Mute are returnedto the factory default setting, follow the steps shownabove, except that in Steps 4 and 5, select the samedevice for both the DEVICE IN USE on the leftside of the bottom line and the PUNCH-THROUGHdevice. In the example used, the display to return theremote to default settings will appear as shown inFigure 56.Figure 56Channel Punch-ThroughChannel punch-through allows the Channel Up/Downbuttons to send commands to a different device thanthe one that has been selected for other commands.For example, you may wish to use a cable box orsatellite receiver as the source for a VCR, so youwould want the Channel Up/Down Buttons Ytotransmit commands to the cable box even though theother button commands are programmed to operatethe VCR.To program the remote for channel punch-through,follow these steps. This example will show how to pro-gram channel punch-through so that the commandsprogrammed for Channel Up/Down for the VID 3/Cable device will be transmitted when the VID 1/VCRdevice has been selected as the current device.1. Press and hold the Program ButtonOforabout three seconds while the message shown in Figure 18 appears in the remote’s LCDInformation Display2.Release the buttonwhen the red light under the Set Buttonqappears.2.

At the next menu screen you will see the devicename on the bottom line of the display with ablinking cursor box to the right of the devicename. Press the ‹Navigation Button otoreturn the blinking cursor to the far left side of thedisplay line. You may then retitle the device nameas shown in the next step.6. To enter the new name, press the Numeric KeysA.The letters above the numbered buttonsindicate which letter or symbol will appear whenthe button is pressed during the renamingprocess. The first press of the button will enter thefirst letter shown, subsequent presses of the samebutton will change the display to the other lettersabove that numbered key. For example, since thefirst letter we need to rename the input to HDTVTuner is an “H”, you would locate the “H” abovethe “4” button, and press the button twice. Thefirst press shows a “G,” the second press changesit to an “H.” Consult the table at the end of thissection to see which characters pressing a partic-ular button generates.7. After you enter the first letter of the new devicename, there are three options for entering the nextcharacter:a. To enter a letter that requires a different numeric key to be pressed, simply press thatbutton. The cursor will automatically move to the next position and the first letter accessed by the new button will appear. Following ourexample, the next letter needed is a “D,” so you would press the “3” button once.b. To enter a letter that uses the same numerickey, you must first press the ›NavigationButtonoto move the blinking cursor blockto the next position. Then press the NumericKeyAas required to enter the desired letter.c.To enter a blank space, press the ›NavigationButtonotwice. The first press will move thecursor to the right, and the second press willmove the cursor one more space to the right,leaving a blank space between the last letterand the next one.8. Repeat Step 7 as needed to enter all the neededletters, numbers, characters and spaces.9. When the text entry is complete, press the Set Buttonq.The LCD display will blinkDEVICE RENAMED three times and thenreturn to normal operation.Once a device is renamed you will see the new nameon the top line of the remote’s LCD display wheneverthe Input//Device Selector3is pressed, or whenany other command/function button on the remote ispressed after the main Device Selector is pressed.Note that renaming a device in the remote will notchange the name of the input used by the on-screenmenu system of the DPR 2005.NOTES ON RENAMING DEVICES:• To move the cursor to the right or left of the displayduring the renaming process, press the ‹/›Navigation Buttonsoas required.• The table below shows the letters, numbers andcharacters that may be accessed by pressing theNumeric Keys:Key Characters Key Characters1[,],/,1 6 M,N,O,62 A,B,C,2 7 P,Q,R,S,73D,E,F,3 8 T,U,V,84G,H,I,4 9 W,X,Y,Z,95J,K,L,5 0 -,.,#,0• Renaming a device changes the name of the deviceonly, not any of the individual key functions withinthat device memory.

CONFIGURING THE REMOTE  49CONFIGURING THE REMOTERenaming Individual KeysThanks to the programming flexibility of the DPRremote, an individual button on the remote may beassigned a feature or function that is different from thename that appears as the factory default when thebutton is pressed. However, with the Rename Keyfunction it is possible to rename almost any button onthe remote so that when the button is pressed you willsee a more descriptive or appropriate name displayed.To rename a specific button on the remote, followthese steps. For instance, this example will show youhow to program the remote so that ZOOM appears inthe remote’s LCD display when you press the ToneButton Vsince it does not have a preprogrammedfunction for DVD players. Of course, remember thatyou will first have to learn the codes for that functioninto the Tone button, following the instructions shownon page 42.1. Press and hold the Program ButtonOforabout three seconds while the message shown in Figure 18 appears in the remote’s LCDInformation Display2.Release the buttonwhen the red light under the Set Buttonqappears.2.The remote’s MAIN MENU message (Figure 17),will appear in the LCD display and the Set Buttonqwill remain illuminated in red. Press the⁄/¤Navigation Button ountil RENAMEappears on the bottom line of the LCD screen, asshown in Figure 69.3. At the next menu screen press the ⁄/¤Navigation Button ountil RENAME KEYappears on the bottom line of the LCD screen, asshown in Figure 72. Press the Set Buttonqto continue.Figure 724. The next display screen (Figure 73) is where you select the device within which the key to berenamed exists. Press the ⁄/¤NavigationButtons ountil the name of the base deviceappears. In our example, since we want torename a button within the DVD device memory,DVD should appear in the lower line of the LCD.When the desired device name appears, press theSet Buttonq.Figure 735. At the next menu screen you will select the firstbutton within the device to be renamed, asinstructed in the display shown in Figure 74.Select the button (in this case, the Tone ButtonV)by simply pressing it on the remote.Figure 746. Depending on whether or not the button pressedalready has a named function within the deviceselected, one of two things will happen.a. If the button to be renamed already has a pre-programmed, or previously renamed title in theremote’s memory, you will see that name onthe top line of the LCD display, and a blinkingblock cursor will appear on the far left side ofthe bottom line of the display.b. If the button to be renamed does not have afunction in the device selected, the top line ofthe LCD screen will be blank, and a blinkingblock cursor will appear on the far left side of the bottom line of the display, as shown inFigure 76.Figure 767. To enter the new name for the key, press theNumeric KeysA.The letters above the numbered buttons indicate which letters or sym-bols will appear when the button is pressed duringthe renaming process. The first press of the but-ton will enter the first character shown, subse-quent presses of the same button will change thedisplay to the other letters above that numberedkey. For example, since the first letter we need torename the Tone button to Zoom is a “Z,” youwould locate the “Z” above the “9” button, andpress the button four times. The first press showsa “W,” the subsequent presses step through theother letters available until the “Z” appears.Consult the table on page 48 to see which characters are available by pressing a particularbutton.8. After you enter the first letter of the new devicename, there are three options for entering the next character:a.To enter a letter that requires a different numerickey to be pressed, simply press that button.The cursor will automatically move to the nextposition and the first letter accessed by the newbutton will appear. Following our example, thenext letter needed is an “O,” so you would pressthe “6” button once.b. To enter a letter that uses the same numerickey, you must first press the ›NavigationButtonoto move the blinking cursor blockto the next position. Then press the NumericKeyAas required to enter the desired letter.This is the way you would enter the second “O”in the word ZOOM, and again for the letter “M.”c. To enter a blank space, press the ›NavigationButtonotwice. The first press will move thecursor to the right, and the second press willmove the cursor one more space to the right,leaving a blank space between the last letterand the next one.9. Repeat Steps 7 and 8 as needed to completeentering the needed letters, numbers, charactersand spaces.10. When the text entry is complete, press the SetButtonq.The new name will be entered intothe remote’s memory, replacing the default name.11. At this point you have two options:a. If you wish to program an additional key withinthe same device, press the Set Buttonqasinstructed by the bottom line of the LCD displayreading ANOTHER KEY.The remote willreturn to the SELECT A KEY menu optionas shown in Step 6. Repeat the instructions inSteps 6 though 11 to rename the next key.b. If you have no additional keys to rename, pressthe ⁄Navigation Buttonoonce so thatthe menu screen displays EXIT on the bottomline of the display. Press the Set Buttonqto return the remote to normal operation.NOTES ON RENAMING KEYS:• Renaming a key does not change its function. Youmay change the function of an individual key bylearning a new code into the remote. See page 42for more information.• When a key is renamed it will only apply to the specific device selected in Step 4. The same keymay be renamed as needed for each individualdevice with which it is used.Resetting the RemoteDepending on the way in which the remote has beenprogrammed, there may be a situation where you wishto totally erase all changes that have been made tothe remote and return it to the factory defaults. Youmay do that by following the steps shown below, butremember that once the remote is reset, ALL changesthat have been made, including programming for usewith other devices, learned keys, macros, punch-through settings and key names, will be erased andSELECT A KEYSELECT A DEVICEDVDRENAMERENAME KEYDPR 2005 OM   3/8/04  1:45 PM  Page 49
any settings you had previously made will have to bereentered.To erase all settings and reset the remote to the original factory default settings and displays, followthese steps:1. Press and hold the Program ButtonOforabout three seconds while the message shown in Figure 18 appears in the remote’s LCDInformation Display2.Release the buttonwhen the red light under the Set Buttonqappears.2.The remote’s MAIN MENU message (Figure 19),will appear in the LCD display and the Set Buttonqwill remain illuminated in red. Press the⁄/¤Navigation Button ountil USERRESET appears on the bottom line of the LCDscreen, as shown in Figure 77.Figure 773. Press the Set Buttonqto reset the remote.Note that once the Set Button is pressed theprocess may not be stopped. While the remote’smemory is being cleared, a RESETTING...message will appear in the upper line of theremote’s LCD screen as shown in Figure 78. Itmay take a few minutes for the reset process to take place, and the length of time will varydepending on how much customization and pro-gramming has taken place. Please be patient; aslong as the message appears in the display theremote is functioning properly.Figure 784. When the remote has been totally reset andreturned to the factory default condition, aREMOTE RESET COMPLETE message willappear (Figure 79) briefly, and then the remotewill return to normal operation.Figure 79Additional Notes on Configuring and Operatingthe Remote• When the remote is being programmed, it will auto-matically time-out if no button is pressed within athirty-second period. The message shown in Figure80 will appear briefly, and the remote will then exitthe feature being programmed and any data enteredwill be lost.Figure 80• The programming or configuration process may also be stopped at any time by pressing the ClearButton9.The message shown in Figure 80 will appear, the data entered in the current process will be lost and the remote will return to normaloperation. Any process that was underway when the button will be pressed must be restarted.• Extensive use of the programming, learning andconfiguration functions of the remote may consumesignificantly more battery power than normal remoteoperation. While the batteries should last for four tosix months in normal operation, you may find thatthey need to be changed sooner after the remote isprogrammed for the first time.• When the batteries approach a level below whichthe remote will not function, the remote’s LCDscreen will display a LOW BATTERY warning asshown in Figure 81. We strongly recommendreplacing the batteries as soon as this messageappears to avoid the loss of programming and con-figuration settings. These settings are not lost whenthe batteries are changed quickly.Figure 81• The remote has a built-in backlight that may be activated by pressing the Light ButtonP.Thisbutton is made from a special “glow” material so that it is easier to find in dark rooms. This glow feature does not consume any electricity, but theglow will fade when the remote is kept in a darklocation for an extended period of time. The “glow”feature may be restored by placing the remote innormal room light for a few hours.• The remote’s backlight will remain lit for approxi-mately five seconds after the Light ButtonPispressed, and it will stay lit for another five seconds ifany key is pressed while the backlight is on. Youmay keep the backlight lit by holding the LightButton, but extensive use of the backlight willreduce battery life.• The LCD display will remain on for ten seconds after a key is pressed and then turn off to conservebattery life.• When any button is held for more than thirty seconds, the LCD will turn off and the remote willstop transmitting the codes to conserve battery life.AVRLOW BATTERYTIME OUT ORCLR KEY PRESSEDREMOTE RESETCOMPLETERESETTING...MAIN MENUUSER RESET50  CONFIGURING THE REMOTECONFIGURING THE REMOTEDPR 2005 OM   3/8/04  1:45 PM  Page 50
