1. Voltage Triggers, Reset Switch and Ethernet - The two 12 volt triggers
present at this section of the back panel supply a maximum current of
100 mA, and can be used to trigger an external amplifier, or can also be
used to trigger the use of an anamorphic lens on a projector. These jacks
are both 3.5 mm mono style female mini jacks. The pin is positive(+), and
the sleeve is ground.
Each of the 12V DC triggers may be set to 12V DC when a particular input
is selected. For example, Trigger #1 may be set to output 12V DC when
Input 8 is selected. When another input besides Input 8 is selected, Trigger
#1 will go to 0V DC.
The Ethernet port is a 10/100 Base Ethernet port, that allows receiving and
sending multicast audio streams when used with a DMS/SNP URC Multi
zone system, and also used for command and control when used with an
MRX-10/MRX-12 (or similar) URC Advanced System Controller.
Pressing the RESET button will return the DMS-AV to its factory default
state.
2. Optical and Coaxial Digital S/PDIF Inputs/Output - By default, the
optical and coaxial S/PDIF audio inputs are not assigned to any composite,
component or HDMI video input. The optical and coaxial S/PDIF inputs
require assignment to a video input (via the on-screen display, or the URC
Accelerator PC application).
Any of the optical/coaxial S/PDIF inputs can be assigned to any numbered
video input (Composite, Component or HDMI). The optical/coaxial S/PDIF
inputs cannot be assigned to Input Phono or Input Multi Cast Stream, since
those inputs are “Audio Only” inputs.
The optical digital output shall provide a S/PDIF digital output of any selected
optical input signal. This digital output is for use with a digital recording device.

DMS-AV HOME THEATER AMPLIFIER
3. Remote Infrared Input - The Infrared Input port allows for easy integration with
an RF(radio frequency) to IR (infrared) style base station, such as the URC MRF-350
or MRF-260. This port provides the ability to perform simple one-way control of
the DMS-AV with a URC legacy-style infrared remote control, such as a MX-900,
MX-980 or MX-880, among others. Use of this port with RF based remote controls
allows for “stand alone” operation of the DMS-AV, that is, use of the DMS-AV
without an MRX-10/MRX-12 or similar external URC Advanced System Controller.
This is a 3.5 mm mono style female mini jack input, with the tip being positive(+),
and the sleeve being ground.
4. HDMI Inputs/Output - The DMS-AV supports six HDMI connections; five are
used for signal input, while one supports HDMI signal output.
The DMS-AV supports a single HDMI video output. All video signals sent to the
DMS-AV via composite, component, HDMI, or generated by the internal on-screen
display output via the HDMI OUT connector.
The HDMI Technology within the DMS-AV supports all versions of HDMI, which
means it is compatible with the following formats:
sRGB
YCbCr
Blu-ray Disc and HD DVD Video and Audio at Full Resolution
Consumer Electronic Control (CEC)
Deep Color
xvYCC
Auto Lip-Sync
Dolby TrueHD Bitstream Capable
DTS-HD Master Audio Bitstream Capable
Audio Return Channel
3D over HDMI
5. Main AC Rocker Style Switch - Provided is a Main AC Rocker Switch. This
switch is sometimes known as a “Vacation” switch, and is used to remove main
AC from the DMS-AV, or perform a hard reboot of the unit.
6. Composite Video Inputs - The DMS-AV supports four composite video RCA
connectors. All video present at these connectors is upconverted to the HDMI
Video Output.
7. Analog Audio Inputs - The DMS-AV provides seven total analog audio inputs.
Six of these inputs support a line-level analog audio signal. One of these inputs
will support a phono level analog audio signal. The Phono Input supports the MM
(Moving Magnet) phono input type. The Phono Input also provides a ground lug
connector on the DMS-AV back panel.
Page 14
DMS-AV HOME THEATER AMPLIFIER
8. Component Video Inputs/Output - The DMS-AV has three component video
connections. Two of these connections are inputs, while the third connection acts
as a video output (in case HDMI is not used).
The component video inputs accept a maximum input resolution of 1080i/60Hz.
The component video output supports a maximum output resolution of
1080i/60Hz. Composite and HDMI video are not converted and will not output via
the component video. The on-screen display is not viewable via the component
video output as it only works with HDMI.
9. Setup Microphone Input - This jack allows the connection of an external
microphone for automated setup of the DMS-AV speakers, in regards to
crossovers, audio levels, and equalization. This is a 3.5 mm mono style female
mini jack, tip being positive(+), and sleeve being ground. A setup microphone is
provided.
10. Record Output – This output is an analog left/right line level signal of the
currently selected analog audio input. Only analog audio input signals are output
via this connection. Volume control settings do not effect the record output. This
stereo pair of analog RCA outputs are for use with an analog recording device.
11. Preamplifier Outputs – The DMS-AV supports nine preamplifier audio
outputs. In addition to the standard “7.1” audio outputs, including front, center,
surround and subwoofer channels, the DMS-AV shall also support a second
subwoofer output channel. These surround outputs are designed for driving
external power amplifiers or powered speakers.
12. Speaker Outputs - The DMS-AV provides seven amplifier channels for
surround sound reproduction, rated at 125 watts per channel into an 8 ohm
speaker load.
Within the on-screen display or the URC Accelerator Application, set your DMSAV to use "Surround Back" amplifier channels or "Front Height" amplifier
channels. Surround back speakers and front height speakers cannot be
powered simultaneously.
The output connectors are industry standard high-current binding posts.
Bare speaker wire may be secured within the screw-type binding posts, or
banana plugs may be inserted into the center of the binding posts.
The processed audio present at the binding post connectors (speaker
connections) contains the same processing as the audio present at the preamplifier stage. As an example, if a crossover is applied to the front left and
right preamplifier channels, the same crossover settings are applied to the
front left and right speaker outputs, only amplified.
13. AC Receptacle - For attaching the supplied high current AC power cord
to the unit.

DMS-AV HOME THEATER AMPLIFIER
Quick Start Considerations
Your URC receiver is pre-programmed for ease of operation, right out of the
box. In general, there is minimal setup required to start using your new
DMS-AV Network Home Theater Processor.
To quickly setup and begin operating your receiver, follow these steps:
1. Start with all AC power cords unplugged from their designated AC outlet.
2. From each source device, connect the A/V cables which could include
composite, component, or HDMI cables.
3. Connect the speaker cables from the receiver’s speaker outputs to the
appropriate speakers.
4. Connect the appropriate video cables from the receiver’s video outputs to
the video monitor’s input(s).
5. Connect an Ethernet cable from the DMS-AV to local network router.
6. Plug the AC power cords for the DMS-AV and all connected sources into
their designated AC outlets.
7. Power On the DMS-AV. Bring the DMS-AV out of “standby” mode, via
the front panel “standby” button.
8. Power On all source components.
9. On a computer connected to the same network as the DMS-AV, launch the
DMS System Toolbox application.
10. In the unit discovery window, select the Network Scan button. Select the
DMS-AV Home Theater Amplifier.
11. In the DMS System Toolbox application, select any of the connected source
components. Verify proper operation of the DMS-AV and the source
components.
