Connect the AV2, using the supplied mains cable, to an appropriate mains socket and operate the power switch on the rear panel. A single flashing dot will be seen on the display while the AV2 starts-up. The dot will stop flashing to indicate that the AV2 is ready for use. When initially switched on the AV2 will be in Standby mode. Standby is indicated by an illuminated Naim logo and a single dot indicator on the display. To wake the AV2 from standby press the handset standby key or the front panel input or mode buttons. The AV2 will wake-up in either the default state if it is previously unused, or in the state in which it was last shut-down. · · · · 2D 2PLII stereo vol 00 input mode 2.2 AV2 Input Setup The AV2 Input Setup routine defines input names, turns-off any unused inputs, and sets some control and decode parameters. To switch the AV2 into Input Setup mode press the handset menu key followed by the input key, or press and hold the front panel input button. The front panel input button will flash. To scroll down or up the setup parameters press the handset 6 or 5 keys or the front panel input or mode buttons. To select a setting for each parameter press the handset 3or · · · · 2D 2PLII stereo vol 00 input mode 4 keys or use the front panel rotary control. The diagram opposite shows the list of input setup parameters with some typical settings chosen. In this example, a VCR is nominated for input AN1, a CD player for input AN2, a Satellite Receiver for input OP1, and a DVD player for input CO1. All the other inputs are turned off and both the remote handset control and Pro Logic II parameters are left at their default settings. To return all input setup parameters to their default state press and hold the handset disp key while the AV2 is in input setup mode. To exit from Input Setup mode press the handset menu key followed by the input key, or press and hold the front panel input button.

To switch the AV2 into Speaker Setup mode press the handset menu key followed by the mode key, or press and hold the front panel mode button. The front panel mode button will flash.

The diagram opposite shows the list of speaker setup parameters with some typical settings chosen. In this example, large (full bandwidth) front speakers, a large centre speaker, small (restricted bandwidth) surround speakers and a sub-woofer have been specified. Distances in metres from the speakers to the listening position have been specified and relative volume levels between the speakers have been adjusted using the test signal. Distance and level parameters for extra rear speakers don't appear because they have been specified as not used. To use the speaker test signal, set the AV2 volume to a moderate level (use the handset vol6 and vol5 keys - a value of 40 - 50 should be fine) and set TST to ON. Press the handset 6 key. A noise signal should be heard from the left front speaker. Listen to the noise through each speaker (handset 6 key) before making any adjustments - this will confirm the speaker connections are correct and reduce the possibility of unnecessary volume level adjustments being made. Listen to each speaker once again (the AV2 user interface cycles around the speaker volume level setup stages) and adjust the levels so that each one is equally loud from the normal listening position. In the example diagram the centre channel has been adjusted upward slightly while the surround channels have been lowered. The sub-woofer volume level is best set somewhere between the highest and lowest levels for the other speakers and then adjusted using its volume adjustment. To return all input setup parameters to their default state press and hold the handset disp key while the AV2 is in input setup mode. To exit from Speaker Setup mode press the handset menu key followed by the mode key, or press and hold the front panel mode button.
