Symptom Remedy
When playing a disc with the
listening mode set to Auto Sur-
round or ALC, 2 Pro Logic II
or DTS Neo:X appear on the
receiver. Make sure that the receiver is set to AUTO or DIGITAL (see Choosing the input
signal on page 47).
If a two channel soundtrack is currently playing (including Dolby Surround
encoded), then this is not a malfunction. Check the disc packaging for details
about the audio tracks available.
During playback of DVD-
Audio, the display shows PCM. This will occur when playing DVD-Audio material over the HDMI connection.
This is not a malfunction.
The power turns off auto-
matically and some indicator
flashes, or some indicator
flashes and the power does not
turn on. See the Power section (page 94).
Remote control
Symptom Remedy
Cannot be remote controlled. Set the remote control unit’s remote control mode so that it matches the set-
ting on the main unit (see Operating multiple receivers on page 64 (SC-LX85)/
page 74 (SC-LX75)).
Check whether the receiver’s remote control mode is properly set (see Remote
Control Mode Setup on page 92).
Try replacing the batteries in the remote control (see Loading the batteries on
page 7).
Be sure to operate within 7 m and a 30º angle of the remote sensor on the
front panel (see Operating range of remote control unit on page 7).
Check that there are no obstacles between the receiver and the remote con-
trol.
Make sure that there is no fluorescent or other strong light shining on to the
remote sensor.
Check the connections of the CONTROL IN jacks (see Operating other Pioneer
components with this unit’s sensor on page 32).
Other components can’t be
operated with the system
remote. If the battery ran down, the preset codes may have been cleared. Re-enter the
preset codes.
The preset code may be incorrect. Redo the procedure for entering preset
codes.
When commands from the remote control units of other devices are regis-
tered using the learning function, in some cases they may not be learned
properly. In this case, register the commands again using the learning func-
tion (see Programming signals from other remote controls on page 65 (SC-
LX85) / page 75 (SC-LX75)). If they still do not work, they may be in a special
format that cannot be registered on this receiver’s remote control. Operate the
device using another remote control.
Symptom Remedy
SC-LX85 only: Receiver or
other components cannot be
operated by RF two-way com-
munications. There may be radio interference with other devices. Try increasing the
distance from microwave ovens, devices on a wireless LAN, other wireless
devices, etc. (see Precautions when using the Omni-Directional RF Remote
Control on page 72).
There may be radio interference with other devices. Move the RF adapter and
wireless LAN converter (AS-WL300) apart. If there is no improvement, change
the remote control to the IR MODE (see Operating this receiver by RF commu-
nications on page 71).
Try replacing the batteries in the remote control (see Loading the batteries on
page 7).
If the RF adapter’s LED is off, the RF adapter may not be properly connected
to the receiver. Check whether the RF adapter is properly connected to the
receiver (see Connecting the RF adapter on page 15).
The devices may no longer be properly paired. Pair them again (see Pairing the
RF adapter and remote control on page 71).
When the remote control or main unit are reset, the RF communications func-
tion is also reset. Make the settings again (see Using the RF communications
function on page 70).
SC-LX85 only: The remote
control display flickers. Flickering may occur when the remaining battery power is low. Replace the
batteries with new ones (see Loading the batteries on page 7).
HDMI
Symptom Remedy
The HDMI indicator blinks
continuously. Check all the points below.
No picture or sound. This receiver is HDCP-compatible. Check that the components you are con-
necting are also HDCP-compatible. If they are not, please connect them using
the component or composite video jacks.
Depending on the connected source component, it’s possible that it will not
work with this receiver (even if it is HDCP-compatible). In this case, connect
using the component or composite video jacks between source and receiver.
If the problem still persists when connecting your HDMI component directly to
your monitor, please consult the component or monitor manual or contact the
manufacturer for support.
If video images do not appear on your TV, try adjusting the resolution, Deep
Color or other setting for your component.
While analog video signals are being output over HDMI, use a separate con-
nection for audio output.
To output signals in Deep Color, use an HDMI cable (High Speed HDMI
®
Cable) to connect this receiver to a component or TV with the Deep Color
feature.
No picture. Try changing the Resolution setting (in Setting the Video options on page 59).
