4. Zone2 Setup
Zone2 Out
If you have connected your Zone 2 speakers to an amp
with no volume control, set the Zone 2 Out setting to
Variable so that you can set the zone’s volume, balance,
and tone on the receiver.
Fixed: The Zone 2 volume must be set on the
amp in that zone.
Variable: The Zone 2 volume can be set on the
receiver.
Default setting: Fixed
Z2 Bass
With this setting, you can boost or cut low-frequency
sounds output from the speakers for Zone 2.
The output can be adjusted from –10 dB to +10 dB in
2 dB steps.
Default setting: 0 dB
Z2 Treble
With this setting, you can boost or cut high-frequency
sounds output from the speakers for Zone 2.
The output can be adjusted from –10 dB to +10 dB in
2 dB steps.
Default setting: 0 dB

5. Network Setup
This section explains how to configure the receiver’s
network settings manually.
If your router’s DHCP server is enabled, you don’t need
to change any of these settings, as the receiver is set to
use DHCP to configure itself automatically by default
(i.e., DHCP is set to “Enable”). If, however, your router’s
DHCP server is disabled (you’re for example using static
IP), you’ll need to configure these settings yourself, in
which case, a knowledge of Ethernet networking is
essential.
Note:
The setup menu display will become available several
tens of seconds after the receiver has started up.
What’s DHCP?
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) is used
by routers, computers, the receiver, and other devices to
automatically configure themselves on a network.
What’s DNS?
The DNS (Domain Name System) translates domain
names into IP addresses. For example, when you enter a
domain name such as www.onkyousa.com in your Web
browser, before accessing the site, your browser uses
DNS to translate this into an IP address, in this case
63.148.251.142.
MAC Address
This is the receiver’s MAC (Media Access Control)
address. This address cannot be changed.
DHCP
This setting determines whether or not the receiver uses
DHCP to automatically configure its IP Address, Subnet
Mask, Gateway, and DNS Server settings.
Enable (Default setting)
Disable
Note:
If you select “Disable”, you must configure the “IP
Address”, “Subnet Mask”, “Gateway”, and “DNS
Server” settings yourself.
IP Address
Class A: “10.0.0.0” to “10.255.255.255”
Class B: “172.16.0.0” to “172.31.255.255”
Class C: “192.168.0.0” to “192.168.255.255”
Enter a static IP address provided by your ISP.
Most routers use Class C IP addresses.
Subnet Mask
Enter the subnet mask address provided by your ISP
(typically 255.255.255.0).
Gateway
Enter the gateway address provided by your ISP.
DNS Server
Enter a DNS server address provided by your ISP.
Proxy URL
To use a Web proxy, enter its URL here.
Proxy Port
If you’re using a Web proxy, enter a proxy port number
here.
Network Control
This setting enables or disables control over the network.
Enable
Disable (Default setting)
Note:
When set to “Enable”, the NET indicator is dimly-lit and
the power consumption slightly increases in standby mode.
Control Port
This is the network port used for control over the
network.
“49152” to “65535”
