SYSTEM CONFIGURATION 21

When using the full-OSD system to make the setup
adjustments, press the OSD Button

once so

that the MASTER MENU (Figure 1) appears. The
➔ cursor will be next to the IN/OUT SETUP
line. Press the Set Button

q and the IN/OUT

SETUP menu (Figure 2) will appear on the screen.
Press the

/

Navigation Button

o until the

desired input name appears in the highlighted video,
as well as being indicated in the front-panel Input
Indicators

$. When you are scrolling through the

list of available inputs you may hear a slight click. This
is normal, as it is caused by the relay that is used to
switch between the two Component Video Inputs.

Figure 2

When a Video input is selected as the source, you
have the option of changing the name that appears in
the on-screen and front-panel messages. This is help-
ful if you have more than one VCR, if you wish to
associate a specific product brand name with the
input, or to simply enter any name that will help you to
remember which source is being selected.

To change the input name, press the

/

¤

Navigation Button

o on the remote so that the ➔

cursor is pointing to

NAME. Next, press and hold

the Set Button

q for a few seconds until a flashing

box appears to the right of the colon. Immediately
release the Set Button

q, as you are now ready

to enter the device name.

Press the

/

¤

Navigation Button

o and a

complete set of alpha-numeric characters will be avail-
able with the start of the alphabet in capital letters fol-
lowed by the lower-case letters and then numbers and
symbols. Press the button either way until the first
letter of the desired name appears. If you wish to
enter a blank space as the first character, press the
› Navigation Button o.

When the desired character appears, press the

Navigation Button

o and repeat the process for

the next letter. Continue until the desired name is
entered, up to fourteen characters. When the name is
complete, press the Set Button

q to enter it into

the system memory.

If your system includes sources equipped with Y/Pr/Pb
component video outputs, the DPR is able to switch
them to send the proper signals to a video display.
Either Component Video Input ij may be
assigned to any source for added system flexibility.
The default setting is for the Component Video 1
Jack i to be assigned to the DVD and 6/8-Channel
Direct Inputs, with the Component Video 2 Jack j
assigned to all other inputs. If your system doesn’t
include component video, or if you do not need to
change these defaults, press the

¤

Navigation

Button

o to go to the next setting.

To change the Component Video assignment, first
make certain that the ➔ cursor is pointing to the
COMPONENT IN line on the menu screen;
then press the

‹/› Navigation Button o until

you see the desired input in the highlighted video.
When the desired component input has been selected,
press the

¤

Navigation Button

o to go to the

next setting.

Some digital video input sources, such as a cable box
or HDTV set-top may change between analog and
digital outputs, depending on which channel is in use.
The DPR 1005’s Auto Polling feature allows you to
avoid losing the audio feed when this happens by per-
mitting both analog and digital connections to the
same source on the DPR. Digital audio is the default,
and the unit will automatically switch to the analog
audio if the digital audio stream stops.

In cases where only a digital source is used, you may
wish to disable the Auto Polling feature to prevent the
DPR from trying to “find” an analog source when the
digital source is paused. To turn Auto Polling off for
any input, first make certain that the ➔ cursor is
pointing to the AUTO POLL line on the menu
screen. Next, press the

/

Navigation Button

o

so that OFF is highlighted in reverse video. Repeat
the procedure at any time by highlighting ON to
restore the Auto Polling feature.

When any changes to the Auto Polling configuration
are complete, press the

¤

Navigation Button

o

to go to the next setting.

If you wish to associate a digital input with an input
source or change the default digital input selection,
press the

¤

Navigation Button

o while the

IN/OUT SETUP menu (Figure 2) is on the
screen, until the cursor moves to the DIGITAL
IN line. Press the

/

Navigation Button

o until

the desired digital input appears. To return to the ana-
log input, press the button until ANALOG appears.

To change the digital input at any time using the dis-
crete function buttons and the semi-OSD system,
press the Digital Select Button

p on the remote.

Within five seconds, make your input selection using
the

/

¤

Navigation Button

o until the desired

digital or analog input is shown in the Upper Display
Line

^ and in the lower line of the on-screen dis-

play. Press the Set Button

q to enter the new

digital input assignment.

An exclusive Harman Kardon feature is the ability to
switch the front-panel analog audio/video jacks from
their normal use as inputs to output connections so
that portable recording devices may easily be con-
nected. The front-panel analog Video 5 Inputs

K

are normally set as an input for use with camcorders,
video games and other portable audio/video products,
but they may be switched to an output for connection
to audio/video recorders. To temporarily switch them
to outputs, you must first be at the IN/OUT
SETUP menu. Press the

¤

Navigation Button

o until the on-screen ➔ cursor is pointing to the
VIDEO 5 line. Press the

Navigation Button

o so that the word OUT is highlighted. The
Input/Output Status Indicator

I between the S-

and composite video jacks will turn red, indicating that
the analog Video 5 jacks are now record outputs.

Selection of the front-panel jacks as an output will
remain effective as long as the DPR 1005 is on. Once
the unit is turned off, the jacks will revert to their nor-
mal use as an input when the unit is turned on again.

When changes to the Video 5 setting are
complete, press the

¤

Navigation Button

o

to go to the next setting, or press the

› Navigation

Button

o until the ➔ cursor is next to BACK

TO MASTER MENU to continue.

The

REC OUT line gives you the opportunity to

select which type of signal is directed to the Record
Output jacks (associated with the Tape ⁄, Video 1
∞ and Video 2 £ sources. The default setting is
ANALOG, which will send the analog signal from
any source to all three sets of analog record outputs.

In cases where you wish to have the output of a digital
source selected as the record output feed, while the
➔ cursor is next to the REC OUT line, press the
‹/› Navigation Button o so that DSP
DOWNMIX
appears in highlighted video. When this
indication is shown, the DPR will feed a downmixed,
analog version of a Dolby Digital or DTS encoded sig-
nal to the Record Output jacks (associated with the
Tape ⁄, Video 1 ∞ and Video 2 £ sources and
the Video 5 jacks when they are configured as an
output). This enables you to make an analog recording
(where permitted by copyright laws) of the soundtrack
from a digital source.
