9 DVD5/AV2 Integration
To operate as an integrated unit a DVD5 and AV2
must be connected together via an interface cable in
addition to the appropriate signal cable. Connection of
the interface cable is illustrated in Section 11.2
With a DVD5 and AV2 connected the DVD on-screen display
functions can be used to view and adjust AV2 setup and
operational parameters. To initiate communication between the
two units the AV2 must be brought out of standby.
In order to prevent the direct adjustment of AV2 parameters
while on-screen display is operational, the AV2 front panel
display will show only
OSD.
Integration of DVD5 and AV2 provides both with additional
facilities.
9.1 Integrated System Standby
The components of a DVD5/AV2 system can be switched to
standby mode either individually or together. To switch either unit
into standby press the handset
standby
key with the handset
system component keys switched to the appropriate mode. To
switch both units to standby, regardless of the handset mode,
press and hold the handset
standby
key.
9.2 Automatic Switching
The AV2 can be set to switch to an appropriate input when
specific types of disc are loaded into the DVD5. To enable
automatic switching the AV2 inputs must simply be labelled
appropriately. To auto switch the AV2 to a digital input when a
DVD or DTS-CD is inserted, label any ONE of the following inputs
DVD: OP1, OP2, CO1 or CO2.
To switch to an analogue input when a DVDA or CDDA is inserted,
either set the versatile inputs to “multi” mode or any analogue
input label to CD. If the versatile inputs are multi-channel and
another analogue input is labelled CD then AV2 will switch to the
versatile “multi” input.
9.3 Volume Control
To prevent the on-screen display volume bar from appearing at
every volume adjustment press and hold the handset
return
key
while the DVD is stopped. Repeat to re-enable the volume bar.
