Inputs Menu
Four AV source devices (providing picture and ana-
logue sound signals) can be connected to the DVD sur-
round receiver; alternative input sockets can be assigned
to these source devices on the K6; these inputs (co-axial
or optical) are suitable for digital signals. If the K6 is set up in this way the signal from the digital
source device is accepted and processed instead of the
analogue stereo input signal.
The alternative inputs are assigned in the 'Inputs Menu'.
Digital inputs
The on-screen menu lists the digital inputs of the K6 on
the left - DIG opt. and DIG coax.
Each digital input can be assigned to one of the fol-
lowing AV inputs:
--- TV VCR/TVB STB AUX-AV
--- no assignment
STB set-top box
Calibration:
When an external source device providing an analogue
sound signal is connected to the K6, the best possible
reproduction quality can only be obtained if the ana-
logue / digital converter of the K6 is matched accurately
to the output level of the source device.
The K6 features an automatic calibration function to
carry out this process. This is the calibration procedure:
1. Select the desired analogue audio or AV source
device and play a fortissimo (extremely loud) pas-
sage of music.
2. Call up the 'Inputs Menu', move to Calibration
start and press the     button.
3. The screen displays the active message as long as
the calibration process continues.
Notes
The automatic calibration function can be used for all
external analogue audio and AV source devices
(TAPE 1,
AUX 1, AUX 2 / PHONO, STB, TV,
VCR / TVB and AUX / AV), provided that you have not
assigned a digital input to that socket. We recommend
that you carry out the procedure for all devices con-
nected to these inputs.
The integral tuner is already calibrated correctly; the K6
therefore does not allow you to calibrate this source
device.
If, in spite of calibration, a source device shows signs
of overloading (distortion), you will see the following
message displayed briefly on the integral screen:
'O V E R L O A D O V E R L O A D O V E R L O A D O V E R L O A D '.
If this happens, the analogue/digital converter needs to
be re-calibrated to suit the source device in question.
