APPENDIX Frequently asked questions every time you add a new HDMI Control-compatible device to your system. For information on The new speaker system does not provide an ideal sound balance... how HDMI Control works between your TV and playback devices, refer to the instruction manuals for each device. If you have changed speakers or have a new speaker system, use “Auto Setup” to optimize the I want to turn off the on-screen messages displayed during operations... speaker settings again (p.54).
Troubleshooting Refer to the table below when the unit does not function properly. If the problem you are experiencing is not listed below or if the instructions below do not help, turn off the unit, disconnect the power cable, and contact the nearest authorized Yamaha dealer or service center. First, check the following: 1 2 3 The power cables of the unit, TV and playback devices (such as BD/DVD players) are connected to AC wall outlets securely.
Problem The unit cannot be controlled using the remote control. Cause Remedy The unit is out of the operating range. Use the remote control within the operating range (p.6). The batteries are weak. Replace with new batteries. The unit’s remote control sensor is exposed to direct sunlight or strong lighting. Adjust the lighting angle, or reposition the unit. The remote control is set to control external devices.
Audio Problem No sound. Cause Remedy Another input source is selected. Select an appropriate input source with the input selection keys. Signals that the unit cannot reproduce are being input. Some digital audio formats cannot be played back on the unit. To check the audio format of the input signal, use “Audio Signal” in the “Information” menu (p.162). The cable connecting the unit and playback device is defective. If there is no problem with the connection, replace with another cable.
Problem No sound from the TV (when HDMI Control is used). Cause Remedy The TV is set to output audio from the TV speakers. Change the audio output setting on your TV so that the TV audio is output from the speakers connected to the unit. A TV that does not support ARC is connected to the unit only with an HDMI cable. Use a digital optical cable to make an audio connection (p.41). (If the TV is connected to the unit with an audio cable) The TV audio input setting does not match the actual connection.
Video Problem Cause Remedy Another input source is selected on the unit. Select an appropriate input source with the input selection keys. Another input source is selected on the TV. Switch the TV input to display the video from the unit. The video signal output from the unit is not supported by the TV. Set “MONITOR CHECK” in the “ADVANCED SETUP” menu to “YES” (p.165). No video. No video from the playback device (connected to the unit with HDMI).
FM/AM radio (AM radio feature is not available for the Australia, U.K., Europe and Russia models) Problem Cause Remedy There is multi-path interference. Adjust the FM antenna height or orientation, or place it in a different location. Your area is too far from the FM station transmitter. Set “FM Mode” in the “Option” menu to “Mono” to select monaural FM radio reception (p.128). FM radio reception is weak or noisy. Use an outdoor FM antenna. We recommend using a sensitive multi-element antenna.
Bluetooth Problem Cause Remedy The Bluetooth function of the unit is disabled. A Bluetooth connection cannot be established. No sound is produced, or the sound is interrupted during playback. Enable the Bluetooth function (p.154). Another Bluetooth device is already connected to the unit. Terminate the current Bluetooth connection and then establish a new connection (p.97). The unit and the Bluetooth device are too far apart. Move the Bluetooth device closer to the unit.
USB and network Problem Cause Remedy The USB device is not connected to the USB jack securely. Turn off the unit, reconnect your USB device, and turn the unit on again. The unit does not detect the USB device. The file system of the USB device is not FAT16 or FAT32. Use a USB device with FAT16 or FAT32 format. Folders and files in the USB device cannot be viewed. The data in the USB device is protected by the encryption. Use a USB device without an encryption function.
Problem The Internet radio cannot be played. The iPod does not recognize the unit when using AirPlay. Cause Remedy The selected Internet radio station is currently not available. There may be a network problem at the radio station, or the service may have been stopped. Try the station later or select another station. The selected Internet radio station is currently broadcasting silence. Some Internet radio stations broadcast silence at certain of times of the day.
Error indications on the front display Message Access denied Cause Remedy Access to the PC is denied. Configure the sharing settings and select the unit as a device to which music contents are shared (p.103). The unit cannot access the USB device. Turn off the unit and reconnect your USB device. If the problem persists, try another USB device. Make sure your router and modem are turned on. Access error There is a problem with the signal path from the network to the unit.
Glossary This section explains the technical terms used in this manual. DSD (Direct Stream Digital) DSD (Direct Stream Digital) technology stores audio signals on digital storage media, such as SACD (Super Audio CDs). The signals are stored at a high-frequency sampling rate (such as 2.8224 MHz and 5.6448 MHz). The highest Audio information (audio decoding format) frequency response is equal to or higher than 100 kHz, with a dynamic range of 120 dB.
DTS Neo:6 WMA (Windows Media Audio) DTS Neo:6 enables 6-channel playback from 2-channel sources. There are two modes available: “Music mode” for One of the compressed digital audio formats developed by Microsoft Corporation. With psychoacoustic music sources and “Cinema mode” for movie sources. This technology provides discrete full-bandwidth matrix technologies, this compression method achieves a high compression rate. Reportedly, it is capable of compressing channels of surround sound.
Audio Information (Others) HDMI and video information Bi-amplification connection (Bi-amp) Component video signal A bi-amplification connection uses two amplifiers for a speaker. When you use the bi-amplification connection, the With the component video signal system, the video signal is separated into the Y signal for luminance and the Pb and unit drives the tweeter and woofer in a speaker with the discrete amplifiers. As a consequence, the tweeter and Pr signals for chrominance.
Network information Yamaha technologies SSID CINEMA DSP (Digital Sound Field Processor) SSID (Service Set Identifier) is a name that identifies a particular wireless LAN access point. Since the surround sound systems were originally designed for use in movie theaters, their effect is best experienced Wi-Fi in a theater that has many speakers designed for acoustic effects.
