CREATING AND USING PRESETS

The T 163’s simple but powerfully flexible system of “Presets” allows you to customize virtually every aspect
of your audio-video playback, and recall them with a single key-press. Every parameter of T 163 operation
that is available from the main menu — input settings, level settings, delay settings, speaker
settings, and listening mode selection and adjustments — is stored, together, as a single Preset. You might
create one Preset optimized for pop music and another for classical, or Presets that recall each family
member’s favorite setup, or one for fully cinematic home-theater playback and another for late-night
movies, with each Preset’s surround mode, channel levels, and speaker-setup fine-tuned to a particular
scenario or preference.

TING PRESETS

Creating a Preset consists simply of storing a complete set of all settings accessible from the main
menu, including Tone Control settings. To save a collection of settings to a Preset, use the HTR 2 remote’s
[

] keys to scroll to the to main item. Use [

] to scroll to the desired Preset’s line

[1-5]; will be flashing. Now press the HTR 2’s [Enter] to store the Preset; will be stop
flashing, confirming that the Preset has been stored.

NOTE: The selected Preset remains in force until you select a different Preset.

NOTE: It is strongly recommended to leave Preset 1 “empty”; that is, memorized with no changes at all
made to the calibrated values you have entered on all of the menu lines. This will make returning
to your calibrated setup defaults easy.

RECALLING PRESETS

You may recall a Preset at any time; the newly recalled Preset will replace the previous Preset (if any).
Presets can only be recalled using the HTR 2 remote:
Press the HTR 2’s square [A/V Preset] key (red dot), then press the numeric key 1-5 corresponding to the
desired preset.

NOTE: The [A/V Preset] key works as a momentary “shift” key: You must press it every time before invoking
a Preset via a numeric key.
