Control trigger 1&2 on and control trigger 1 & 2 off make it possible to con-

trol one or both of the remote turn-on trigger outputs on the rear panel of

the Audio Video Preamplifier independently of the system itself. For ex-

ample, should you decide to use one of these trigger outputs to control am-

plifiers in the remote zone rather than the local amplifiers, learning these IR

commands would allow you to turn the remote amplifiers on and off (even

from across the house) without affecting the operational status of the main

home theater.

The sub/crossover feature will toggle between the configuration estab-

lished during initial setup and using the front three loudspeakers full-range,

without any help from the subwoofer(s). (Specifically, it turns off the cross-

over and the subwoofer output when sub/crossover off is selected.) This fea-

ture may be used to compare the performance of the system configured

with and without the subwoofer(s). (Note that pressing recall will always

return the system to its calibrated setup configuration, regardless of its cur-

rent status.)

custom menu Having gotten through the nearly endless teach remote capabilities of the AVP, the

remainder of the custom menu is used to configure and define how you want

the AVP triggers to operate, and to configured the rear panel IR input. When you

enter this menu, you see something like this:

CUSTOM

TRIG 1 SOURCE: STANDBY

TRIG 1 TYPE: PULSE

TRIG 2 SOURCE: STANDBY

TRIG 2 TYPE: LEVEL

REAR IR IN: REMOTE

A trigger source refers to what the trigger takes it cue from: either the system

changing back and forth from standby to operate, or an independent

IR command (learned in the teach remote menu). Each of the two triggers may

be set independently of the other.

The type refers to whether the output of the trigger is a level (constant) trigger

or a pulse (simulating the action of a momentary-closure contact switch).

Internal settings within the Audio Video Preamplifier determine whether the elec-

trical result of these triggers is a nominal 5V or 12 V , or even the closing of a dry

contact relay (should you require to source more current or a higher voltage than

the Audio Video Preamplifier can provide). If this last is the case, you can use
