INTRODUCTION

Thank you for purchasing the Marantz SR-19EX THX/ DTS/Dolby Digital Surround receiver. This remarkable component has been engineered to provide you with many years of home theater enjoyment. Please take a few minutes to read this manual thoroughly before you connect and operate the SR-19EX. As there are a number of connection and configuration options, you are encouraged to discuss your own particular home theater setup with your Marantz A/ V specialist dealer.

DESCRIPTION

THX® is an exclusive set of standards and technologies established by the world-renowned film production company, Lucasfilm Ltd. THX resulted from George Lucas’ desire to reproduce the movie soundtrack as faithfully as possible both in the movie theater and in the home theater. THX engineers developed patented technologies to accurately translate the sound from a movie theater environment into the home, correcting the tonal and spatial errors that occur. When the THX mode of the SR-19EX is on, three distinct THX technologies are automatically added: Re-Equalization-restores the correct tonal balance for watching a movie in a home environment. These sounds are otherwise mixed to be brighter for a large movie theater. Re-EQ compensates for this and prevents the soundtracks from being overly bright and harsh when played in a home theater. Timbre Matching-filters the information going to the surround speakers so they more closely match the tonal characteristics of the sound coming from the front speakers. This ensures seamless panning between the front and surround speakers. Adaptive Decorrelation-slightly changes one surround channel’s time and phase relationship with respect to the other surround channel. This expands the listening position and creates with only two surround speakers the same spacious surround experience as in a movie theater with multiple surround speakers. The Marantz SR-19EX was required to pass a rigorous series of quality and performance tests, in addition to incorporating the technologies explained above, in order to be THX Ultra certified by Lucasfilm Ltd. THX Ultra requirements cover every aspect of performance including pre-amplifier and power amplifier performance and operation, and hundreds of other parameters in both the digital and analog domain. Movies which have been encoded in Dolby Digital, DTS, Dolby Pro Logic, stereo and Mono will all benefit from the THX mode when being viewed. The THX mode should only be activated when watching movies which were originally produced for a movie theater environment. THX need not be activated for music, movies made especially for TV, or shows such as sports programming, talk shows, etc. This is because they were originally mixed for a small room environment.
“Lucasfilm®” and “THX®” are registered trademarks of Lucasfilm Ltd.
THX Surround EX - Dolby Digital Surround EX is a joint development of Dolby Laboratories and the THX division of Lucasfilm Ltd.
In a movie theater, film soundtracks that have been encoded with Dolby Digital Surround EX technology are able to reproduce an extra channel which has been added during the mixing of the program. This channel, called Surround Back, places sounds behind the listener in addition to the currently available front left, front center, front right, surround right, surround left and subwoofer channels. This additional channel provides the opportunity for more detailed imaging behind the listener and brings more depth, spacious ambience and sound localization than ever before. Movies that were created using the Dolby Digital Surround EX technology when released into the home consumer market may exhibit a Dolby Digital Surround EX logo on the packaging. A list of movies created using this technology can be found on the Dolby web site at
http ://www.dolby.com.
“SURROUND EX ™” is a trademark of Dolby Laboratories. Used under authorization.
Dolby Digital lets you enjoy Digital TV, Digital Satellite as well as DVD, LD software in digital surround, which is the next step above Dolby Pro Logic. In comparison with Dolby Pro Logic, Dolby Digital can provide separate left surround and right surround channels, for more precise localization of sounds and a more convincing, realistic ambience. And, with Dolby Digital, all five main channels can be full ranged and a subwoofer can be added to each channel , if desired. By providing up to 5.1channels of digital audio independently, Dolby Digital lets you enjoy better sound quality and more powerful presence than conventional Dolby Surround.
“Dolby”, “AC-3”, “Pro Logic” and the double-D symbol are trademarks of Dolby Laboratories.
DTS was introduced in 1994 to provide 5.1 channels of discrete digital audio into home theater systems. DTS brings you premium quality discrete multi-channel digital sound to both movies and music. DTS is a multi-channel sound system designed to create full range digital sound reproduction. The no compromise DTS digital process sets the standard of quality for cinema sound by delivering an exact copy of the studio master recordings to neighborhood and home theaters. Now, every moviegoer can hear the sound exactly as the moviemaker intended. DTS can be enjoyed in the home for either movies or music on of DVD’s, LD’s, and CD’s.

(SEE PAGE 3)
q POWER switch and STANDBY indicator
You can turn on and off the unit’s power using the front panel power switch. However, if you turn the unit off with the front panel switch, the unit goes completely off rather than to the “standby mode” (Red LED indicator light glows in the standby mode). The unit cannot be turned on with the remote control when it is not in the standby mode. When the red LED is on, the unit can be turned on via the remote control, or by turning the input selector knob on the front panel.
w PHONES jack for stereo headphones
This jack may be used to listen to the SR-19EX’s output through a pair of headphones. Be certain that the headphones have a standard 14" stereo phone plug. (Note that the main room speakers will automatically be turned off when the headphone jack is in use.)
Notes:
• When using headphones, the surround mode will automatically

OPERATION OF REMOTE CONTROL UNIT

VOL
CH
1. Remote control
The distance between the remote control unit and the IR SENSOR of the SR-19EX should be less than about 5 meters. If the transmitter is pointed to a direction other than the IR SENSOR or if there is an obstacle between them, remote control may not be possible.
Remote-controllable range
3. Receiving the remote control codes
The RC-18SR can learn most of the remote control codes from various equipment, it learns the full word length of the code it is receiving. Due to the sensitivity of the receiving LED the RC-18SR may also “learn” noise from fluorescent lights, etc. which can quickly fill up the memory of the RC-18SR. In order to maximize the memory capacity of the RC-18SR please pay close attention to the following:
(1) Aim the transmitting remote control at a direct line of sight to
the RC-18SR remote receiver eye.
(2) Keep 2 inches between transmitting remote and the RC-18SR
receiving eye.

SPEAKERS SETUP AND LEVELS SETUP

SPEAKERS SETUP
Speakers size
The first few adjustments tell the SR-19EX which type of speakers are in use. This is important as it adjusts the settings that determine which speakers receive low frequency (bass) information. If you use full THX speaker systems which are approved by LUCASFILM LTD, set to the SMALL/THX position for front L/R ch., center ch. , surr. L/ R ch., surr.back ch, and then select subwoofer =YES. In turn, these settings will determine which speakers receive low frequency (bass) information. For the purpose of establishing proper bass reproduction, use the LARGE settings if the speaker being used at any position is a traditional full-range loudspeaker that is capable of reproducing sound below 80 Hz. Use the SMALL setting for smaller, frequency-limited satellite speakers that are not able to reproduce sounds below 80Hz. Note that when “small” speakers are used, a subwoofer is required to reproduce low frequency sounds. Low frequency sounds from every channel in your system can be fed to a single subwoofer, since low frequency sounds are non­directional and not location sensitive. The SR-19EX will automatically send low frequency signals from any channel set to “SMALL” to the Low Frequency Effects (Subwoofer) channel. Remember that the “large” and “small” descriptions do not refer to the actual physical size of the speakers, but to their ability to reproduce low frequency sounds. If you are in doubt as to which category describes your speakers, consult the specifications in the speakers’ owner’s manual, or ask your dealer.
SPEAKER TYPE AND POSITIONING FOR THX SURROUND EX
Type
THX suggests the use of pair of dipolar speakers for the Sb channels but a pair of monopole type speaker may also be used.
Positioning
It has been found that an angle of 150° from the Front Center speaker is a good starting point for establishing the location of Sbl and Sbr speakers. This is suggested from AES preprint #4860. The optimum position for Surround Back speakers is somewhat room dependent. The Surround Back channel should be enveloping but not lost in the sound of the side speakers. Most dipoles have an arrow on them to indicate their orientation towards the screen. So for the side dipole, the arrows point forward. For the back dipoles, the arrows should point towards each other to achieve the correct acoustical phasing in the room:

Notes:
• The setup level for each channel is memorized for reproduction in all surround mode.
• These levels are common for all surround modes, except 6CH­INPUT mode.
• In order to correctly set the output levels, use a hand-held Sound Pressure Level meter (SPL), set to C-Weighting and Slow averaging.
• A Radio Shack® SPL meter (catalogue number 330 - 2055) works well.
• Using the internal channel noise generators, set each channel so that you read 75 dB SPL from each channel when seated at the listening position.
LEVELS SETUP 2/2 (BASS PEAK LEVEL LIMIT)
With Dolby Digital and DTS , not only the LFE (Low Frequency Effects), but also the bass of all channels can be heard from the Subwoofer or Large-speakers. This procedure prevents these speakers from becoming too loud and creating an unbalanced sound. Since the sound is output at a loud volume, perform this operation carefully.

DIALOGUE NORMALIZATION MESSAGE
Dialogue Normalization (Dial Norm) is a feature of Dolby Digital. When playing back software which has been encoded in Dolby Digital, sometimes you may see a brief message in the front panel display which will read “Dial Norm X dB” (X being a numeric value). Dialogue Normalization serves to let you know if the source material has been recorded at a higher or lower level than usual. For example, if you see the following message: “Dial Norm + 4 dB” in the front panel display, to keep the overall output level constant just turn down the volume control by 4 dB. In other words, the source material that you are listening to has been recorded 4 dB louder than usual. If you do not see a message or see “Dial Norm 0 dB” in the front panel display, then no adjustment of the volume control is necessary.

REMOTE CONTROL UNIT RC-18SR

n The remote control unit provided with the SR-19EX is a
“learning”-type, programmable unit capable of controlling almost any component in your system, as well as the Marantz D-BUS components (RC-5). The components to be controlled can be selected with 11 function buttons.

OPERATION

The provided remote control unit (RC-18SR) is a system remote controller. The POWER button v, 10-key numeric buttons ⁄2 and control buttons ⁄5 are used in common across different input source components. The input source system controlled with the RC-18SR changes when one of the input selector buttons . is pressed.
nExample: To select the LD player as the input source and
play an LD on it Press the LD button twice within 2 seconds. The input function of the SR-19EX is switched to LD
and the
RC-18SR is set for control of the LD player.
Press the PLAY button ⁄5 to play an LD.

z MODE (operating mode)
This button is used to change from normal operation to the learning mode, and is used when “learning” commands from other brands of A/V components. Each time this button is pressed (using a small pointed instrument, such as the tip of a paper clip) the mode changes as follows: LEARN → USE → NAME. As the mode changes, the LCD display will show which mode is currently selected.
x MACRO (for multiple step macro functions)
This button is used to memorize a series of functions. When this button is pressed, the RC-18SR changes to macro programming mode, and is ready to learn a sequence of remote control commands.
22
c CLONE
The RC-18SR has the ability to “replicate” itself, downloading all of its internal pre-programmed and user-programmed commands to another RC-18SR or RC2000MKII. This button is used when you wish to “teach” another RC-18SR or RC2000MKII all of the customized commands you’ve already programmed in this RC-18SR.
v POWER ON and OFF
These two buttons are used to turn the main component’s (amplifier or receiver) AC power on and off. We provide both ON and OFF commands so that your A/V system is remote compatible with external infrared controllers, such as in-wall key pads, etc.
b SOURCE ON/OFF
This button is used to turn the AC power on and off to any of your A/V source components that have their own remote control turn-on and turn-off commands, such as TV, laser disc player, VCR, and etc.
n MACRO 1-4
Each of these 4 buttons can be programmed with a “string” of commands, called a macro, to initiate a sequence of remote codes to achieve a particular result. For example, a macro button could be programmed to turn on the main system power, then turn on a particular source component (such as a laser disc player), then turn on the TV set, set the TV to AUX video input, and then adjust the surround processor to the home theater surround decoding mode, then activate the laser disc player’s PLAY function. This means that by pressing one macro button, you can achieve the same result as pushing up to 20 buttons in sequence.
Note:
Press a function selector button only once to select the LD player, etc. Remember, when you press a function selector button only once, the RC-18SR will not send out a remote control code to instruct the amplifier or receiver to change to that corresponding input, but the RC­18SR keypad and DIRECT function commands will provide the selected component’s specialized remote control codes. Press a function selector button twice within 2 seconds to change the function of the amplifier or receiver.
For example, if you press the LD function button twice within 2 seconds, the amplifier or receiver’s input will immediately be switched to the laser disc input, and the keypad and DIRECT function commands for laser disc operation will be activated. Press the CD function button only once, the amplifier or receiver’s input will not switch to the CD input, however the RC-18SR keypad and DIRECT function commands for compact disc operation will be activated.
We have provided 11 popular function command selector buttons, based upon the typical input selections available with most quality A/ V amplifiers (or receivers) including popular Marantz models.
The function button DSS/VCR2 is a little different from the others, in that when you press this button, the RC-18SR will send out a command to the amplifier or receiver to switch to the DSS input, and then the RC-18SR keypad and DIRECT function commands will be configured for DSS (digital satellite system) control. We have included DSS commands within the RC-18SR’s pre-programmed memory for RCA brand DSS equipment. If you have another brand of DSS, you can “teach” the RC-18SR with the remote control codes of your equipment.
ENGLISH
m DIRECT
With today’s high performance A/V systems, it is not unusual for each component in your system to have dozens of specialized command functions. If we were to duplicate all of those commands for each component onto the RC-18SR key pad, we could easily exceed 300 buttons for an entire home theater system, which would result in either a huge key pad, or buttons of infinitesimal size. The DIRECT command buttons (4 on each side of the LCD display, 8 total) work with the PAGE buttons (4 pages for each source component) to provide up to 32 dedicated specialized functions for each of the 11 function input selectors. Each DIRECT function may also be provided with an alpha­numeric function indicator visible in the LCD display. You may even change the displayed name of each function to another name, if you wish.
, PAGE
Used to select any 1 of the 4 pages of 8 functions for each DIRECT button, as explained above.
. FUNCTION
Press one of these buttons once or twice to select a particular source component. For example, to set the amplifier or receiver to the laser disc input, press the LD button twice within 2 seconds. Along with the source selection, special functions may become available (the DIRECT keys), as well as activating the transport function keys, so that you can now directly operate the laser disc player from the RC­18SR. If you wish, you may even re-program the status indicators in the LCD window to reflect your own particular function name whenever that source (function) button is selected.
Here are the button names and their functions: LD : Laser disc player TV : Television VCR1 : Video cassette recorder DSS/VCR2 : Digital satellite decoder or second video cassette
recorder
AUX : Can be used for an auxiliary source component TUNER : AM/FM tuner, or AM/FM tuner section of a receiver CD : Compact disc player or changer TAPE : Audio tape deck, or digital audio recorder AMP : Amplifier or receiver control functions DVD : Digital video disc player CD-R/MD : CD-Recorder or mini disc player
⁄0 LCD window
The LCD window provides a wealth of information, including function selection name, DIRECT function names, learning and programming steps, as well as useful indicators for battery status, and other helpful indicators. The LCD window features back-lighting, making it easy to view when the room light is very low.
⁄1 Volume up (+) and down (-)
Used to raise and lower the main system volume level. Note that these buttons are clearly the largest size, and are conveniently located and contoured for easy operation, even in low lighting.
⁄2 Ten keypad
Like a telephone key pad, the ten number buttons (0-9) are used to enter numeric digits. They are useful for finding a specific track on a CD, or to tune a pre-set radio station, etc. The “0” button performs the same operation as the “CLEAR” button on the SR-19EX main unit.
⁄3 MEMO
This button is used to program your CD player’s track memory, or to enter a VCR recording program, and can be used to provide the MEMO function included with other components in your system.
⁄4 CLEAR
This button is used to cancel certain memory or programming operations. It operates differently from the “CLEAR” button on the SR­19EX main unit.
⁄5 Transport control functions
These buttons provide transport commands for your source components, such as laser disc player, CD player, VCR, audio tape deck, etc., and are dependent on the function source selected. For example, when the RC-18SR is set to LD (laser disc) mode, the transport keys will operate the laser disc player’s PLAY, STOP, PAUSE, FAST FORWARD, FAST REVERSE, NEXT and PREVIOUS track functions. Change the RC-18SR function selector to VCR, and these keys will then operate the VCR’s transport command functions, etc.
23
ENGLISH
⁄6 CURSOR buttons
Some components feature menus that are navigated with up, down, left and right direction commands. The cursor buttons can be used to navigate within on-screen menus, for components such as amplifier or receiver, TV set, DSS/satellite tuner, etc. These buttons are also used for certain RC-18SR programming functions.
⁄7 MUTE
For those components (such as amplifier or receiver, TV, etc.) with a mute function, this button can be used to mute the sound temporarily.
⁄8 GUIDE
This button is intended for owners of DSS (digital satellite system) or similar equipment, to activate the on-screen programming guide, used when changing channels, etc.
⁄9 LIGHTING
Press this button to activate the back-lit LCD screen and back-lit keys independently SETUP mode. A quick touch is all that is necessary. The back-lighting will remain on for 3 seconds. If you wish, you can even re-program the RC-18SR to shorten or lengthen the amount of time the back-lighting is activated when this button is pressed.
¤0 Channel up( ), down( )
Press this button to change the tuner, TV, DSS or VCR preset channels to upward or downward.
¤1 Transmitter window
Infrared signals will eminate from behind this window. Simply aim the RC-18SR towards the component(s) you wish to control. You may find that the RC-18SR works fine when placed on a coffee table pointing towards your A/V system components.
¤2 Receiving window
Used when learning commands from other remotes, this window is placed at the bottom of the RC-18SR, so that the two remotes are vertically oriented for easy transfer of remote control information. Later in this guide we will show you which of the RC-18SR buttons can be “taught” new commands from other components.
d Battery indicator:
When the batteries are running low, this indicator will become visible. At this point, it will not be possible to learn any new remote codes, but normal remote control operation is still provided (including the use of any previously learned codes). At this point, you should consider changing the batteries soon. As time goes on, and the battery power diminishes further, this indicator will begin blinking. At this point, no remote commands will be transmitted. This is your signal to replace the batteries with fresh ones as soon as possible. Eventually, if you ignore the blinking battery indicator and do not install fresh batteries, then the batteries may eventually be totally exhausted, and the LCD display window will be completely blank. However, any previously learned commands and macros will not be erased from the microprocessor’s memory. The RC-18SR is supplied with a full set of RC-5 remote control codes in permanent (non-volatile) memory. Even if the batteries are fully exhausted, the RC-5 codes (used for Marantz A/V components) and learned codes will never disappear. We recommend that you use a quality brand of alkaline batteries, for best results and longest life. Newly available lithium “AA” batteries can even provide longer life than alkaline batteries, and are also recommended.
e Transmit indicator:
When a button is pressed, this indicator shows that an infrared code is being transmitted.
f USE indicator:
For normal operation, the USE indicator should be visible.
g LEARN indicator:
Visible when the RC-18SR is set to LEARN mode.
h NAME indicator:
Visible when the RC-18SR is in the learning mode, and function naming is being changed.
i PAGE or MACRO indicator:
This indicator usually functions in association with a PAGE button ,, but also functions as the MACRO indicator when a MACRO button n is pressed.
LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY (LCD) WINDOW
Within this display, all operating messages (function name, mode names, etc.) are shown. When a particular button is pressed (such as a transport command, like PLAY), its status will be shown in the display for 1 minute. The display will continue to show the source function selected continuously, however.
a Function indication:
The selected source function is displayed, such as LD, TV, etc., up to 6 characters maximum.
b Status indication:
The selected status of the present page, or other items, is displayed, up to 9 characters maximum.
c Direct commands:
8 DIRECT commands are available in 1 page, up to 4 characters maximum.
j indicator:
Visible when the RC-18SR is set to the beep function.
Installing the batteries:
The battery compartment is located on the rear panel. Please use only alkaline or lithium batteries, “AA” size. The RC-18SR requires four AA batteries. There are markings in the battery compartment to show you the proper battery orientation. If after installing the batteries, you cannot see any indication in the LCD window when a button is pressed, re-check to ensure that the batteries are properly positioned in the compartment.

3. “LD” will be indicated within the LCD window, and the function codes will be set to operate the laser disc player. Press the function button again within 2 seconds and the amplifier or receiver’s input changes to laser disc.
4. Now you can operate the laser disc player. When a button is pressed, the symbol indicates that a remote code is being transmitted. Note that for a particular source component, not every button may have a command programmed for it. In that case, nothing would be indicated.
5. Using the DIRECT buttons D-1 through D-8 and PAGEs 1 through 4, up to 32 different specialized commands are available for each FUNCTION, up to a total of 352 specialized commands (32 direct commands times 11 functions). Note that for any particular function selector, not all 32 direct commands may be provided and/or named as supplied from the factory.
6. For example, the RC-18SR is supplied from the factory with 3 pages of DIRECT commands for the LD (laser disc) function. To change pages, press the page direction or buttons ,:
Page 1:MODE: Side A/B laser disc playback functions Page 2:L D: Specialized laser disc functions Page 3: R E C : Recording from laser disc to VCR functions
At this point, you may wish to put this guide aside temporarily, and begin using the RC-18SR with your A/V system. If you already have any Marantz components, or Philips and/or other brands of components that use the RC-5 remote control language, you can begin controlling those components with the RC-18SR right away. Take some time to become comfortable with the operation of the RC-18SR. We think that its intuitive key pad layout and easy to read LCD window will permit you to quickly become familiar with its operation. If you do not have any Marantz or other brands of components that use the Philips RC-5 remote control language, then you may wish to proceed to the next section, which will describe the steps necessary to “teach” your RC-18SR remote codes from other components you may have in your system.
LEARN mode:
The RC-18SR has the ability to learn remote codes for just about any component in your A/V system. If the original component was supplied with an infrared remote control, its commands can be learned by the RC-18SR. If you have another brand of laser disc player, for example, you can program the RC-18SR with its codes. For example, we’ll show you how to “teach” the RC-18SR commands from another brand of laser disc player.
1. Using a sharp point (such as the tip of a paper clip), press the operation MODE button z. Each time you press the button, the mode within the LCD display, the LEARN indicator will begin blinking.
2. Place the laser disc player’s supplied infrared remote controller so that its transmitter window (usually at the top) is facing the receiving infrared sensor window ¤2 of the RC-18SR (at the bottom), about 5 cm (2 inches) apart.
3. Press the LD function button on the RC-18SR.
4. Press the play button ⁄5 on the RC-18SR.
5. Press and hold the corresponding PLAY button on the laser disc
player’s remote transmitter until the “OK” indicator appears in the RC-18SR LCD window (see Figure 2) or the beep sounds emit (if the beep sound function is set ).

If the “AGAIN” indicator appears in the RC-18SR LCD window, it means that for some reason the command was not properly learned. Repeat steps 3, 4 and 5 above. In the unlikely event that an infrared command cannot be learned by the RC-18SR, “NG” (no good) will appear in the LCD window, meaning that the command is not “learnable”. The RC-18SR has been tested for compatibility with a very wide range of infrared remote control frequencies and data word lengths, but in some very rare instances, it may not be possible to learn a particular remote control command. Continue to “teach” the RC-18SR the rest of the source transmitter’s transport function commands, such as STOP, PAUSE, NEXT, PREVIOUS, FAST FORWARD and REWIND, by repeating steps 3, 4 and 5 above.
6. Proceed to learn the numeric “10 keys” from the source transmitter to the RC-18SR’s 10 key numeric pad ⁄2 by repeating steps 3, 4 and 5 above.
7. For each additional function, such as TV, VCR, etc., repeat steps 3, 4 and 5 above. During the LEARN operation, if any button is not pressed within 1 minute, the RC-18SR will revert back to the previous operating mode.
n To make a function button learn a code, switch the input
function then press the button again.
8. After memorizing all desired remote codes, press the operation mode button z with the tip of a paper clip, and select the USE mode. The LCD display window will continue to display the USE indicator, and all of the newly memorized codes will be available (see Figure 3).

Programming the DIRECT mode buttons m:
The following example will show how to memorize the SIDE-A function command of another brand of laser disc player into the D1 direct button.
1. Using a sharp point (such as the tip of a paper clip), press the operation MODE button z to switch the RC-18SR to LEARN mode.
2. Place the laser disc player’s supplied infrared remote controller so that its transmitter window is facing the receiving infrared sensor window ¤2 of the RC-18SR about 5 cm (2 inches) apart.
3. Press the LD function button . on the RC-18SR.
4. Using the direct function page keys and ,, set the direct function to Page 1. Press the D-1 button m on the RC-18SR.

5. Press and hold the corresponding SIDE-A button on the laser
ENGLISH
disc player’s remote transmitter until the head of name blinks in the RC-18SR LCD window or beep sounds emit. The RC-18SR changes to the RENAME mode automatically as the next step. A function name of the DIRECT function button blinks, you can rename this blinking function name. You input the desired letter or number with the ten keypad. (See the table in step 3 of the next procedure for referece.) If you need not rename, press the OK button or the other buttons except the ten keypad.
6. Now, proceed to program the other commands from the laser
disc player’s remote transmitter to the other DIRECT function buttons (D2-D8). When you have “taught” all 8 direct functions for Page 1, press the page direction key , to go to Page 2, and you can program more direct function keys.
7. After memorizing all codes to all DIRECT function buttons, press the operation MODE button z with the tip of a paper clip and return the RC-18SR to the USE mode. Now, the newly memorized codes are usable from the RC-18SR.
If you wish, you can re-write the names for each function name, status name, and the direct function command names as follows: For our example, you can change the LCD display window indication from “LD” to “LV-520” (which is the model number for a Marantz laser disc player). Remember, you can re-name a function selector button with a new name of up to six characters of letters and numbers in any combination.
1. Using the tip of a paper clip, press the operation MODE button z until the NAME indicator appears and begins to blink in the LCD window.
2. Choose a button that you wish to re-name, in this case, press the “LD” function button .. In the LCD window, the first character of the six function character display indicators starts blinking “A”, which is the first letter of the alphabet if you press “1” button twice.
3. Choose the desired letter or number by pressing the 10 keypad buttons ⁄2. Each 10 keypad button has 4 characters attached to it as follows:
10 keypad button Press, press again, press again, etc.
11 → A → B → C → 1 → ........
22 → D → E → F → 2 → ........
33 → G → H → I → 3 → ........
44 → J → K → L → 4 → ........
55 → M → N → O → 5 → ........

88 → V → W → X → 8 → ........
99 → Y → Z → / → 9 → ........
00 → + → — →
SPACE
→ , → ’ → 0 ........
So, in the above example, by pressing the 10 keypad number 4 four times, you get the letter “L” to appear in the display (see Figure 4).

4. You use the cursor buttons and ⁄6 to move to the next character in the display. By pressing the right cursor button , the letter “L” is confirmed in the first character space in the LCD window and the next character position begins blinking. If you wish to erase a previously memorized character, position the cursor over the character and put the SPACE character in its place (the SPACE character is ten keypad number 0 pressed four times, from the above character chart).
5. Continuing along, re-write the remaining letters “V”, “–”, “5”, “2”, and “0”. By pressing the cursor keys and , each character is confirmed in place. When you go to other DIRECT function pages by using the page function keys ,, characters in the previous page are also confirmed in place. The name re-writing operation must be done on a function by function basis, that is, re-write the names for all of the LD direct functions, then switch to another function such as VCR, and begin the re-writing process anew to re-name the VCR direct function commands. After completing all re-writing of any of the names, press the OK button within the cursor keys ⁄6.
How to re-write the STATUS name:
Using the same steps as outlined above, you can re-write the 9 character status name. During step 5 above, by pressing the up and down cursor keys ⁄6 the left side of the status indicator begins blinking, and you can change its display according to the same method outlined above, using the 10 keypad character generator. Remember, to confirm each character change, use the cursor keys and . As above, when you change the direct function page by pressing the page direction keys ,, this will confirm the re-written characters in place as well for the page you just finished re-naming. You have up to 9 letters, numbers or other characters available for each status name.
How to re-write the DIRECT function button names:
You can change the name for each of the 8 direct function buttons by using the steps described above to change main function name and status name. Remember, each main function has 8 direct function buttons on each of the 4 pages, so you have up to 32 direct functions that can be re-named, if you wish, for each of the 11 main function selection buttons .. You have up to 4 characters available for each direct function button name. After completing all re-writing of any of the names, press the OK button within the cursor keys ⁄6, or switch to another function button (such as CD). If, during re-naming, a button has not been pressed for 1 minute, the RC-18SR will revert to the prior operating mode (USE) automatically. If re-writing of all of the desired direct mode functions has been completed, use the tip of a paper clip to press the operation MODE button z, and select the “USE” mode. Now, all of the re-written names are available for use.
How to clear (erase) the memorized codes (and any re-written names):
The RC-18SR has a high capacity RAM, which ordinarily will allow the learning of several hundred remote codes (and their associated new names, if desired). However, due to the fact that some remote codes occupy more memory space than others, it is possible that the available RAM fills up completely, and the “FULL” indicator appears in the LCD window. In this case, it will not be possible to learn any new remote codes without first deleting some or all of the previously learned remote codes and/or re-written names. There are 4 ways to erase learned remote codes from memory:
n Erasing by button(s) n Erasing by DIRECT button(s) n Erasing by function(s) n Erasing all memory contents (complete erasure)
•• Note that the factory-programmed RC-5 codes are not stored in RAM, and are therefore not erasable.
For any of these memory erasure options, you must first set the RC­18SR to LEARN mode.
Erasing the memory assigned to a particular button:
Press and hold the CLEAR button ⁄4 and press the button that you wish to erase 2 times. The code previously learned by that button will be erased, and will then be either empty, or the original factory provided RC-5 code will re-appear in its place.

ADVANCED PROGRAMMING TECHNIQUES
Macro mode:
The word “macro” is used to describe a series of specific steps carried out in sequence. For example, a word processing program can use macros to carry out common repetitive typing tasks. During the day to day operation of an A/V system, you might often find yourself pressing the same combination of remote control buttons. The RC-18SR features the ability to “learn” a sequence of infrared commands, and “assign” that sequence to a single button, called a MACRO button n. Then, when you want to achieve a specific result, you can activate a macro button to begin sending out a series of commands. For example, suppose you wish to activate your A/V system, and watch a movie on laser disc. A single macro button could send out the following commands in this suggested sequence: n Turn the main amp power on, then turn the TV power on, then
switch the TV to the AUX video input, then change the amp to the laser disc (LD) input, then turn the LD player power on, then activate the LD play command, then set the amp surround sound mode to Dolby Pro Logic.
The above 7 step sequence can be programmed into a single macro button, and can be used anytime you want to watch a LD movie. Other macro functions could be used for CD listening, or any other sequence of steps that you regularly perform while controlling your A/ V system. Macro commands are available when the RC-18SR is set to USE mode. To program a macro, first identify which commands you wish to memorize, and note if any commands must be in a specific order (for example, before you can activate an amplifier’s surround mode, the amp must first be turned on).
1. Press the MACRO x operation mode button with the tip of a
paper clip. Within the LCD window, the MACRO indication appears, then the LEARN indicator starts blinking (see Figure 8).

If you wish to finalize the complete erasure process, press the OK button within the cursor keys ⁄6. If you do not wish to proceed with the complete erasure process, simply press any key other than OK. Remember, the RC-5 codes as supplied from the factory cannot be erased from memory, but they can be replaced with different codes as you wish. n The all-clear operation takes about 15 seconds after the OK button
is pressed.
n By now, you have learned how to memorize codes from other
brands of components, including changing the various function, status, and direct function names.
Before continuing on to the more advanced RC-18SR programming techniques, you may wish to continue “teaching” the RC-18SR remote control with any or all other commands for other components in your system. When you feel you’ve transferred as many different commands from other components into the RC­18SR as you’d like, and possibly changed some or all of their names as well, then feel free to proceed to the next section.

The “M1-00” indication signifies Macro number 1, no steps yet programmed. As each macro step is programmed, the “00” indicator will advance by one digit-”01”, “02”, etc. After the first macro step is programmed, two additional digits (with a decimal in between) become visible at the end of the status line, showing the timing value for each step (see Figure 10).

NAME
ENGLISH
press a command button to be learned into the macro sequence, its name will appear within the LCD window. Every time you press another remote command, the macro step number increases one by one.
4. It is possible during macro programming to adjust the timing of the interval between several macro steps. Using the cursor keys ⁄6, the interval between macro playback steps can be increased or decreased in 1/2 second steps, over the range beginning at 1/2 second up to 10 seconds. For example, when the indicator shows “0.5 SEC”, if you press the direction key, the interval time would change to 10 seconds, then with another press of the direction key, it would change to 9.5 seconds, etc. Use the direction key to increase the interval time, and use the direction key to decrease the interval time. Some equipment may not be able to receive infrared commands in one-half second steps. If after programming a macro you find that the sequence was not properly carried out, you may wish to experiment with different sequence timings to obtain the correct operation results by using the adjustment method described above. Within each macro button, up to 20 steps can be memorized. In the event that you wish to memorize more than 20 steps per macro, then press another MACRO button n , and follow the above operations. A maximum of 80 steps can be programmed this way. However, you will probably find that 20 steps is more than enough to carry out even the most complex macro instructions to achieve a specific home theater operating result.
Note:
To memorize the cursor button ⁄6 except OK button, press and hold the LIGHTING button ¤0 before pressing the cursor button.
When programming macro steps, note that the following buttons would not normally be included in a macro sequence, and are therefore not available for inclusion in a macro:
MODE z, MACRO x, CLONE c, PAGE ,, VOLUME ⁄1, MEMO ⁄3, CLEAR ⁄4 and LIGHTING ¤0. To check to see which MACRO buttons n have been programmed with macros, at the beginning of the macro learning sequence the four numerical (1 through 4) indicators at the bottom of the LCD window will show a box around the number for each MACRO button that already has a macro assigned to it (see Figure 11, which shows that only MACRO button number 1 has a macro assigned to it).

inadvertently changed as well when the macro is played back. The RC-18SR has a special feature to prevent this from occurring, allowing you to access the special commands available under each RC-18SR function button during a macro playback sequence, while at the same time preventing the amplifier or receiver from constantly switching its input source back and forth at the same time. During the programming sequence, just remember that if you wish to activate a specific input selector on your amplifier or receiver, make sure that you press the desired input selection button FIRST. Subsequent function button selections can be incorporated in the macro sequence, but on playback, the RC-18SR will only send out a function selection infrared command to the amplifier or receiver based upon the first function command used in the macro sequence. For example, you may wish to have a macro sequence which activates the laser disc player input on your amplifier or receiver, and then have additional commands in the sequence to instruct your TV set to switch to an external video source to receive the laser disc video signal. During the macro programming, make sure that you press the LD function selector button BEFORE you press any of the other function selector buttons in the sequence. You can then include any of the TV commands by pressing the TV function selector button, later in the sequence. When this macro is next used (played back), the RC-18SR will send out the command to change the amplifier or receiver’s input selector to laser disc input (since its function selector button was the first one programmed into that macro sequence), and will not subsequently change the amplifier or receiver’s input to TV (but will send out any special TV commands that you included in the macro sequence).
Programming a macro under a function selector key:
If you wish, you can also program a macro that can be activated by pressing one of the function selector . keys. The programming steps are similar to the steps outlined for programming a macro number button n. The following example shows how to program a macro under the LD (laser disc) function selector .: (activate the main amplifier’s power on, switch the source to laser disc, switch the amplifier’s surround mode to PRO LOGIC, switch on the television, switch to the television’s AUX video input, power up the laser disc player, and begin laser disc playback)
1. Press the MACRO x operation mode button with the tip of a
paper clip.
2. Press the LD function button ..
3. Press the following buttons: POWER ON, LD, AMP, direct function D-2 (Dolby mode selector) in page 1, TV*, SOURCE ON, direct function D-3 (VIDEO input selector) in page 1, LD*, SOURCE ON, and PLAY.
4. Press the MACRO x button with the tip of a paper clip. The RC- 18SR will revert to the normal mode and save the macro under the LD function button.
5. To execute the new macro sequence, press and hold the LD function selector button for 3 seconds.

In the event that you wish to revise a programmed macro sequence, search the step number you wish to change by using the cursor button and ⁄6, and then re-enter the new command. If you memorized different commands than have already been programmed, then the previous macro sequence will be erased and re-written over with the new sequence. To add the new command, press the MEMO button at your desired point. To delete the sequence, press the CLEAR button at your desired point. During macro programming, if a button is not pressed within 1 minute, the mode will automatically revert to the original mode (USE). When you have completed the macro programming sequence, press the MACRO x operation button with the the tip of a paper clip. The “END” indication appears in the LCD display window. When you release the MACRO button, all indications will revert to the initial status. There is one more important point to note about programming a macro sequence. During a macro sequence, you may include more than one function selection button to access some transport and/or other commands.

3. Press the CLONE button c of the learning (receiving) RC-18SR or RC2000MKII with the tip of a paper clip or a similar object, and select “CLONE RX” (clone receive mode). When using RC18SR, “RC2002” is displayed in LCD window. If the transmitting remote control unit is RC2000MKII , then the display does not change. If the transmitting remote control unit is RC-18SR, then the display is changed to “RC18SR” by pressing the cursor button ⁄6. Then press the PLAY button ⁄5.
Note:
When the transmitting remote control unit is RC2000MKII , then All clone does not activate. To clone the Function key, press the each Function key except DSS/VCR2 and AMP keys. Eight keys can be cloned at once. If All clone activates without pressing the Function button, “N/A” will display and the clone is not perfomed When the transmitting remote control unit is RC-18SR and receiving remote control unit is RC2000MKII, The DSS/VCR2, CD-R/MD and AMP keys cannot be cloned. To clone the Function key, press each Function key except DSS/VCR2, CD-R/ MD and AMP keys.

Please be sure that, during the copying process, neither RC-18SR is physically disturbed (ideally, they should be placed on a table or other surface, and not hand-held during the copying process). If, for some reason, the copying process was interrupted, the “clone” RC­18SR’s LCD display window will indicate “RX NG” (reception no good). Simply begin the clone process anew by repeating the above steps.
Note:
Cloning is only available between the same remote control unit series, therefore the RC-18SR cannot be cloned by the RC2000.
5. If the source RC-18SR’s memory contents are at or near full capacity, the copying process will take about 3 minutes. After completion of the copying (cloning) process, press the CLONE button c on both RC-18SR’s with the tip of a paper clip, and select the OFF mode. Then, you’ll have two identically programmed RC-18SR remotes, one of which can again be used as your system’s primary remote control, and you’ll have the added confidence of knowing that in the event of inadvertent programming (or memory contents being cleared somehow), you can simply retrieve the “backup” RC­18SR that you’ve safely tucked away, and within minutes restore the programming contents of the original RC-18SR with your customized configuration.
Note:
Some direct keys are marked “♦” in Direct Command Functions Listing (page 32 to 35). The “♦” mark means as follows; When RC-18SR is cloned with RC2000MKII, the name of the direct key can be cloned, however the remote control code (the factory preset code) cannot be cloned. Only learned remote control codes can be cloned. Then the remote control code is learned by “LEARN mode”. Refer to page 25.

The Marantz RC-18SR includes the ability to tailor the lighting features according to your preferences. As supplied from the factory, the RC-18SR has lighting features (and lighting timings):
The lighting time is set at the factory for a period of 2 seconds which you can change if you prefer a different lighting time. If you wish to maximize battery life, you can de-active the lighting function entirely. There is also a lighting button ¤0, so that in any light situation, you can activate the backlighting feature. The lighting time in this case is set at the factory for a period of 2 seconds, which you can also change. If you wish to conserve battery power, you can de­activate the lighting function entirely.
RC-5 Shipped destination:
As mentioned earlier in this guide, the RC-18SR is provided with many commands from the factory with infrared codes conforming to the Philips RC-5 remote control language (used by Marantz, Philips, and some other companies). We have provided two different RC-5 command code sets in the RC-18SR, due to the local requirements of different markets and the different types of remote control codes used in those markets. One code set is for North American (USA) users, while the other code set is for REST users. Your RC-18SR has been set at the factory for USA (United States) codes. It can be easily changed, if you wish.
Set-Up:
To change the lighting time(s), or the destination setting, please follow these steps:
n Select the SETUP mode, by holding the MEMO button ⁄3 and at
the same time pressing the OK button within the cursor keys ⁄6. (see Figures 26 and 27)
Figure 26 Figure 27
Battery life:
n Battery life will vary from user to user, if the remote is used
constantly or only occasionally, including the amount of backlighting usage. We feel that you can expect the batteries to last about 4 months, based upon 15 remote control operations per day (every day), and 3 lighting operations per day (every day). If the remote is used more often, and if the lighting times are set to longer times than the factory settings, then the battery life may be shortened somewhat.
n As explained earlier in the guide, the RC-18SR’s
sophisticated battery conservation system will advise you long before the battery power is fully exhausted, and will further warn you to replace the batteries by simply becoming inoperative at a certain point. The customized memory contents and user-adjusted settings will still be retained in memory. When you install a fresh set of batteries, the memory contents are protected always, because the RC-18SR uses the non-volatile memory. Alkaline (and the newer lithium) types are recommended for longest battery life.
As you become more familiar over time with how you are using the RC-18SR in your A/V system, you may wish to consider reducing the lighting time(s) if possible, as this can help to extend the battery life.
Adjustment of the LCD contrast
n The LCD contrast can be adjusted as follows;
Enter SETUP mode of the RC-18SR by pressing the MEMO and OK button. Press the VOL+ to increase the LCD contrast. Press the VOL - to decrease the LCD contrast. Press the OK buttons to end this setting and return the original operation.

DIRECT COMMAND FUNCTIONS LISTING
Within the RC-18SR LCD window, each of the 8 Direct Function buttons has 4 character labels attached for pre-programmed remote commands. These commands can be used with various Marantz A/V components, or other components using the Philips RC-5 remote control language. You can easily replace the factory-supplied remote command codes with different codes from other brands of equipment. Most functions that are supplied apply to a wide variety of equipment from many companies. The following list shows the remote code assignments for the direct function buttons, for each of the 11 main function selector buttons, as supplied from the factory.

SURROUND MODES

The SR-19EX incorporates digital signal processors (DSP) which can reproduce various surround effects you experience in concert halls and movie theaters, etc. Nine Surround Modes, are provided to reproduce a variety of surround sound effects, according to the content of the source to be played.
AUTO When this mode is selected, the receiver determines whether the digital input signal is Dolby Digital, PCM-audio or DTS. THX
THX Cinema THX Cinema surround mode applies additional processing to Dolby Digital, DTS, and Dolby Pro Logic multi-channel
THX Surround EX In a movie theater, film soundtracks that have been encoded with Dolby Digital surround EX technology are able to
2 (DOLBY Digital, This mode is used with source materials encoded in Dolby Digital and Dolby Surround. DOLBY Pro Logic) Dolby Pro Logic processing can be used on Dolby Surround encoded two channel source material (Dolby Digital two
DTS Cinema This mode is for DTS encoded source materials such as LASER DISC, CD, and DVD. DTS Music In the DTS Music mode, the LFE signal is reduced by 10 dB. With DTS music material, you should select the DTS Music mode.
DSP SURROUND These modes provide surround effect processing from each input source material. (Hall,Matrix,Movie)
5ch STEREO This mode is used to create a wider, deeper and more natural soundstage from two channel source material. This is done by
STEREO This mode bypasses all surround processing. MONO Stereo program sources (left and right channels)play normally when PCM-audio or analog stereo is input.
Source Direct In the source direct mode, the tone control circuit and bass management configuration are bypassed for full range
Surround EX will operate for any 5.1 channel source that has a Dolby Digital Surround EX auto trigger flag in the digital signal.
Note:
When a Dolby Digital or DTS signal is input, the number of channels for which the corresponding signal is encoded will be played. Inputting a Dolby Digital two channel signal with Dolby surround status automatically subjects that signal to Pro-Logic processing before play. PCM 96 KHz source material can be played in this mode.
surround sources. The THX processing was developed by Lucasfilm Ltd. to recreated the sound of top-quality theater. Use the THX Cinema mode for all movies on disc, tape or broadcast. In this mode, THX Surround EX will not operate.
Note:
PCM-audio signals can be subjected to THX processing when the sampling frequency is 32 kHz, 44.1 kHz or 48 kHz. However output will be muted when 96 kHz PCM signal is input.
reproduce an extra channel which has been added during the mixing of the program. This channel, called Surround Back, places sounds behind the listener in addition to the currently available front left, front center, front right, surround right, surround left and subwoofer channels. This additional channel provides the opportunity for more detailed imaging behind the listener and brings more depth, spacious ambience and sound localization than ever before. THX Surround EX will operate for any 5.1 channel source whenever THX is active. This mode is not available in the system without surround back speaker(s).
channels, PCM-audio and Analog stereo). This allows play of the four discrete channels (left, center, right and surround).
Note:
PCM-audio signals can be subjected to Pro Logic processing when the sampling frequency is 32 kHz, 44.1 kHz or 48 kHz. When a signal in another format is input, output will be muted.
When playing DTS movie discs select DTS cinema mode for proper reproduction of the LFE channel. The DTS mode cannot be used when an Analog input has been selected. When the signal in another digital format is input, output will be muted.
They will produce theater, concert hall and stadium like atmospheres. Select as your taste desires.
Note:
PCM-audio signals can be processed in this mode when sampling frequency is 32 kHz, 44.1 kHz or 48 kHz. The 96 kHz sampling frequency mutes output.
feeding the left channel signal to both left front and left surround speaker and the right channel signal to both right front and right surround speaker. Additionally, the center and surround back channel reproduces a mix of the right and left channel.
With Dolby Digital and DTS sources, the 5.1 multi-channels are converted to two channel stereo. 96 KHz source material can be play back in stereo mode.
frequency response and the purist audio reproduction. 96 KHz source material can be play back in this mode.
Notes:
Internal speaker size is setup to front L/R = Large, Center = Large, Surround L/R = Large and Subwoofer = yes automatically. Tone controls are also defeated.
Caution for DTS signal:
This signal can be played when the connected DVD-player, laser­disc player or CD-player is capable of DTS-digital output. For details, refer to the player's operation manual.
Depending on the player used, DTS play may produce noise. If that happens, set the Surround mode to DTS.
Playing a DTS-CD or DTS laser disc causes the player’s analog output terminal to output noise. Before playing DTS sources, be sure to connect the player’s digital output to SR-19EX’s digital input. Be careful when connecting the output of these players to analog audio input. Note that SR-19EX has the following restrictive functions built in to reduce noise emission as much as possible. If DTS is selected while in the Surround mode, digital input cannot be switched to analog input. When the analog input function has been selected, Surround mode cannot be switched to DTS. While signals from DTS-laser disc or CD are playing in another Surround mode, you cannot switch to digital input or from digital input to analog input.
Caution for 96kHz PCM-audio signal:
This signal can be played when a DVD-player or DAT-player connected to SR-19EX is capable of 96 kHz PCM output. For details, refer to the player’s operation manual. The signal can be played when STEREO or AUTO has been selected for the Surround mode. Some DVD formatted discs featured copy protect. When using such disc, 96 kHz PCM signal is not output from the DVD player. For details, refer to the player's operation manual.

GENERAL MALFUNCTION
ENGLISH
If the equipment malfunctions, this may be because an electrostatic
discharge or AC line interference has corrupted the information in the equipment memory circuits. Therefore:
- disconnect the plug from the AC line supply
- after waiting at least three minutes, reconnect the plug to the AC line supply
- re-attempt to operate the equipment
ERROR MESSAGES
When the display indicates some error messages (e.g. ERROR **), unplug the power cable immediately. Contact your dealer, nearest Marantz distributor or the Marantz service center in your area.
Memory backup
n In case a power outage occurs or the power cord is
accidentally unplugged, the SR-19EX is equipped with a backup function to prevent memory data such as the preset memory from being erased. The memory functions are backed up for up to about one week.
NOTE:
First of all keep SR-19EX Standby or Powered-on more than six hours, to sufficient time for memory back up.
HOW TO RESET THE UNIT
Should the operation or display seem to be abnormal, reset the unit with the following procedure. The SR-19EX is turned on, press and hold the CL (CLEAR) o and DISPLAY OFF @0 buttons simultaneously for 3 seconds or more. Remember that the procedure will reset the settings of the function selector, Surround mode, delay time, TUNER PRESET etc., to their initial settings.
