AUDIO CONTROLS
Selecting AUDIO CONTROLS opens the AUDIO CONTROLS menu. All of the Audio Controls interact with the AUTOCAL settings, except for the
Audio Status parameter. 
AUTO EQOFF, ON
If the AUTOCAL process is performed and the settings are saved,
then the Auto EQ parameter identifies if the saved AUTOCAL
settings are being actively applied to the system. When the Auto EQ
parameter is OFF, the AUTOCAL settings are not applied. 
Note: When the AUTO EQ parameter is OFF, the EQ ADJUST parameter is
also not applied.
EQ PRESETPRESET 1, PRESET 2, PRESET 3, USER
Identifies the three preset locations where the AUTOCAL settings
are saved, and displays the state of each preset (saved or unused).
The Active PS, or Active Preset, parameter identifies the presetlocation that is currently active if the AUTO EQ parameter is set to
ON for any input. The Active Preset can be set to any of the three
saved preset locations.
The Preset locations cannot be selected and are present only to
identify the current state of each location. If the location indicates
“SET” then the preset location has AUTOCAL settings saved to it. If
the location indicates “FACTORY”, then the preset location has not
been used and remains at the default factory settings. 
Note: If all three Preset locations indicate “FACTORY”, then the AUTOCAL
procedure has not yet been done, or at the least, the settings have not been
saved. 
For more information on the AUTOCAL process, refer to Section 3:
Setup.

To load a different saved EQ Preset into the system:
1. Decide which saved Preset location you want to load.
2. Select ACTIVE PS from the EQ PRESET menu.
3. Use the  or  cursors to select the Preset location you want 
to load.
4. Press the cursor to save the selection.
When the Active PS is set to “USER”, this indicates a factory default
condition.
Note: Once a Preset location has been selected and saved, the factory
default “USER” option is no longer available for selection. Before a preset
location is saved, toggling the EQ on & off results in a noticeable change in
the subwoofer output level. This is normal behavior.
HF SHELF+8dB to -8dB
Located in the EQ ADJUST menu, the HF SHELF control acts as a
high-frequency shelf filter, which boosts or cuts frequencies above
1kHz. The HF SHELF parameter can be adjusted from +8dB to -8dB
in 1dB increments.
Note: The HF SHELF parameter does not adjust the timbre of the rear
speakers in the 7-CHANNEL listening mode.

TUNER, PC, AND DOCK OVERVIEW
Unlike the other nine inputs of the RV-5 Receiver, the Tuner, PC, and
Dock inputs are NOT interchangeable. These three inputs have
specific audio-only functionality that is exclusive to these individual
inputs. The TUNER input is for use with the internal AM/FM radio
tuner and cannot be used in conjunction with any of the rear panel
audio inputs. The Tuner controls and features are discussed in the
following sections of this chapter.
The PC input is tied to the USB jack on the rear panel and is only for
use with media software on a computer. The PC controls and
features are discussed in later sections of this chapter. The Dock
input is tied to the DOCK connector on the rear panel and is only
for use with iPod players that are connected to the DOCK input via
the optional D-1 Dock accessory. The Dock controls and features
are discussed in later sections of this chapter.
While all three of these inputs have devoted touch screen menu
controls using the remote control, the front panel controls under
the TUNER heading are multi-functional buttons that operate the
AM/FM radio tuner and the iPod functions when an iPod is plugged
into the rear panel Dock input via the D-1 Dock optional accessory. 
Note: The audio input for the Tuner, PC, and Dock inputs are not
user-adjustable. However the video input for these three inputs can be set to
any of the available rear panel video inputs and are as fully customizable as
any of the other nine inputs.
In addition to these Main Zone differences, the Tuner, PC, and
DOCK inputs also behave differently in Zone 2 operation. Unlike the
other inputs, the Tuner, PC, and DOCK inputs operate in Zone 2
independently of both each other and the other nine inputs,
regardless of what is playing in the Main Zone. Any combination of
these three inputs may be selected in the Main Zone and Zone 2,
including the selection of one input playing simultaneously in bothZones. In addition, if one of these inputs is playing in the Main
Zone, you can freely choose any other Analog input in Zone 2.
AM/FM RADIO TUNER
The AM/FM radio tuner can be operated from the front panel or the
remote control. Thirty presets can store AM or FM frequencies,
identified by the preset number, station frequency and band.  Two
antennas are supplied with the RV-5; one for AM and one for FM
stereo. At a minimum, use of the supplied antennas is
recommended to ensure consistent tuner performance.
ZONE 2 TUNER
There is only one tuner in the RV-5 Receiver, but it can be accessed
and output to either the Main Zone or the Zone 2 location. As a
result, the Tuner display doesn’t indicate if the Main Zone or Zone 2
input is being altered, because only one tuner is being adjusted. If a
change is made to the Tuner in Zone 2, the same change is
reflected in the Main Zone.
TUNER ACTIVATION AND DISPLAY
To activate the Tuner from the front panel, press the TUNER input
button under the MAIN heading. 
To activate and control the Tuner using the remote control:
 Touch the TUNER selection on the MAIN touch screen of the
remote control and then press the +10 button marked
“TUNER”, or
 From the “LEX” or “TUNER” layers of the touch screen, just
press the +10 button marked “TUNER”.
To control the Tuner, the TUNER input must be selected in either
the Main Zone or Zone 2.  
						

							RV-5Tuner, PC, & Dock Controls
5-3
Note: The Tuner Input setup displays Digital Audio as NONE, Analog Audio
as TUNER, and the Dig/Anlg Auto parameter is dashed out. These three
parameters cannot be changed for the Tuner Input.
Once the Tuner is activated, the TUNER input button under the
Main Zone heading on the front panel is lit with a blue LED; the
Zone 2 TUNER input button lights with an amber LED. The front
panel of the RV-5 and the 2-line OSD display TUNER and the
current listening mode on the left side of the display; and the
currently selected band frequency, preset location, and volume on
the right side.
TUNER CONTROLS
The front panel controls, the first page of the Tuner remote touch
screen menu, and the third page of the Zone 2 remote touch
screen menu provide identical controls for the AM/FM radio tuner.
AM/FM
Selects the frequency band that the tuner will play. This button
toggles between AM and FM.
ST/MON
Toggles between FM Stereo and Monaural reception. The first press
displays the current state and the second press changes the setting.
Note: This button also controls FM muting of weak signals.  In Stereo mode,
very weak signals, or FM static when a signal isn’t present, are muted.  In
Monaural mode, no muting is applied, so very weak signals and FM static
are audible.
AUTO/MAN
Controls how scrolling through the frequencies is managed. The
button toggles between Automatic (AUTO) and Manual (MAN)
tuning. The first press displays the current state, “AUTO” or
“MANUAL”, and the second press changes the setting.
AUTO automatically seeks out the next available station when a
TUNE button is pressed; MANUAL only scrolls when the user presses
a TUNE button. 
If AUTO is selected, then pressing a TUNE button once will start the
automatic scrolling. Pressing a TUNE button again stops the
scrolling process. If MAN is selected, when either the Tune + or
Tune - button is pressed and held down, the frequencies can be
scrolled through faster.
TUNE +/-
Use the Tune + or Tune - controls to select a frequency. Pressing
either the Tune + or Tune - button enables the user to scroll through
the frequencies. The FM band scrolls in 0.1 MHz increments; the
AM band scrolls in 10 kHz increments. The Auto/Man setting affects
this function. 
PRESET +/-
Use the Preset + or Preset - controls to select a previously saved
radio station. Radio stations saved to a preset are displayed to the
left of the associated preset number. There are 30 Presets available
for the Tuner. 
To select the preset location of a previously saved radio station,
simply scroll through the Presets until you reach the desired Preset
number. The tuner will automatically switch to play the selected
preset radio station. Holding one of the buttons down scrolls
through the preset locations until the button is no longer being
pressed.

SAVE
Stores a radio station into a preset location. 
To Save a Radio Station to a Preset Location:
1. Tune to the station frequency and band that you want to save.
2. Press SAVE. A blinking preset number or dashed lines are 
displayed. 
Note: If nothing is pressed after the SAVE button, the preset will blink for
several seconds before the save function is cancelled.
3. Press Preset +/- or Tune +/- to scroll through the presets. 
4. Press SAVE again to save the station into the selected preset.
If the selected preset already has a station saved to it, the RV-5 
will seek confirmation of the action. The message, “Press again 
to write”, is displayed. 
Note: If no action is taken for five seconds, the RV-5 will time out and
resume normal operation; the station will not be saved to the preset. 
PC CONTROLS
The RV-5 is capable of direct connection to a computer for audio
playback. Once connected, playback of audio streams from a
computer are possible through your RV-5 Receiver, with all the
power and performance of the high-current amplifier, your own
speakers, and the enhanced multi-channel playback made possible
through the use of Logic 7, Dolby Pro Logic II/IIx, or DTS Neo:6
processing.
SETTING UP TO PLAY
The RV-5 Receiver connects to a PC-compatible computer through
the USB jack on the rear panel. Connect one of the available USB
jacks on your computer to the USB jack on the RV-5 rear panel using
a cable with one standard USB connector and one USB “Mini B”
connector. Only the PC input can be used with computer media
players.
Note: The PC Input setup displays Digital Audio as USB, Analog Audio as
NONE, and the Dig/Anlg Auto parameter is dashed out. These three
parameters cannot be changed for the PC Input.
The RV-5 may be used with PC-compatible computers running
Microsoft Windows 2000
® with Service Pack 4 or higher installed,
Vista
®, Windows XP®, or Windows XP Media Center Edition with
Service Pack 1 or higher installed. In addition, you will need to have
a media player installed on the computer. The RV-5 has been tested
for operation with Windows Media Player
® Version 8.0 and above,
but it is also compatible with many other popular players such as
iTunes
®, WinAmp®, and Real Player®. Always verify that you have
the latest version of the player installed to ensure the best
compatibility and performance.
When the connection between a computer and the RV-5 is made
for the first time, or if the USB connection is plugged into a different 
						

							RV-5Tuner, PC, & Dock Controls
5-5
USB jack on a computer or hub that has not been previously
connected to the RV-5, you will see a series of pop-up messages
from Windows to indicate that the computer is configuring itself for
the new device. Since the RV-5 provides a number of different
functions, you may see the “Found New Hardware” message up to
four times, one each for “A/V Receiver,” “Compatible Device,”
“Audio Receiver”, and “Human Interface Device.” 
CAUTION!
Do NOT power cycle the computer while connected to the
RV-5 with the PC input selected. The computer MUST be
on and connected to the RV-5 rear panel USB jack BEFORE
selecting the PC input on the RV-5. Selecting the PC input
first may cause a burst of loud noise that may be
damaging to the speakers or the listener’s hearing.
Harman Specialty Group assumes no responsibility for
damage caused in this manner.
PLAYING PC MEDIA
Before selecting the PC input on the RV-5, make certain that the
media player has been opened on the computer and is the
“top” or active screen. The remote control will not operate the
media player if it is minimized or “behind” other programs.
You are now ready to begin playing music. The RV-5 remote control
or the computer media player program can be used to control the
play, pause, skip forward, and skip back features of the media
player. 
Using the RV-5 remote control:
 Page 4 of the “Lex” touch screen menu provides media player
controls for use with the PC input.PC
|| option mimics the Pause/Play control. If the playlist
is not active, pressing this option starts the playlist. If the
playlist is already playing, then pressing this option pauses it.
PC- option mimics the Skip Back control. Pressing this
option causes the media player to skip back a track in the
playlist.
PC+ option mimics the Skip Forward control. Pressing this
option causes the media player to skip forward a track in the
playlist.
Once playback is started, the audio from a USB source is treated the
same as any other two-channel audio source, and you may apply
any of the appropriate surround processing modes. 
Note: Whenever the USB jack is connected to the computer, the RV-5 will be
selected as the sound card for the computer, even while the RV-5 is in
Standby.

DOCK FUNCTIONALITY
The optional D-1 iPod Docking Station allows you to enter a new
world of listening enjoyment made possible by combining the
storage capacity and playback flexibility of an iPod® (not included)
with the sonic power of your RV-5 Receiver. Operation is easy, you
can use your RV-5 remote control or the front panel buttons to
access and control your iPod selections.  Just one simple connection
and you’re ready to go! 
Note: This functionality is ONLY available if you have purchased the optional
D-1 iPod Docking Station. Refer to Section 1: Getting Started for ordering
details.
CONNECTING THE DOCK TO THE RV-5
Before connecting the Dock, turn the RV-5 off using either the main
power switch or the Standby button. 
With the RV-5 off, press the button on each side of the connector at
the end of the Dock cable and insert this plug into the DOCK
connector on the rear panel of the RV-5. The connector is keyed to
only connect in one way.  If you inadvertently try to plug the
connector in the wrong way, do not force it.  Simply invert the
connector and try again.Once the DOCK connector is attached to the D-1 Dock accessory,
select the DOCK input. The RV-5 front panel 2-line front panel
display indicates that the input is “UNPLUGGED...”. The status
remains as “UNPLUGGED” until an iPod is actually docked.
Note: The DOCK Input setup displays Digital Audio as NONE, Analog Audio
as DOCK (or “UNPLUGGED” if there is no iPod connected to the RV-5), and
the Dig/Anlg Auto parameter is dashed out. These three parameters cannot
be changed for the DOCK Input.
When the iPod is initially plugged into the RV-5, the iPod goes to
the top of its music menu.  When the iPod is removed, the iPod
menu goes to the root menu.
If the RV-5 is in Standby mode with the DOCK AUTO POWER
parameter set to ON and the iPod currently playing a track when it
is plugged into the Dock, the track will continue to play and the
2-line front panel display will show the current track information.
SELECTING THE CORRECT iPOD INSERT
Each iPod model is a slightly different size, making it necessary to
use an insert that matches your specific iPod to the Dock. The Dock
is shipped with the insert for the color screen and photo models
already installed; if you own one of those models, no further
changes are necessary. 
If you own a different iPod, first select the insert that matches your
model.  The model identification is printed on the back of each of
the four extra inserts supplied with the Dock. 
Note: The iPod Shuffle is not supported by the optional D-1 iPod Docking
Station.
Press buttons when inserting or removing the plug.
