No naked flame source, such as lighted candles, should be placed on the unit.

Observe and follow local regulations regarding battery disposal.

Do not expose the unit to dripping or splashing fluids, do not place objects filled with liquids, such as vases, on the unit.

Prevent damage to the power cord. Replace the power cord if it becomes damaged in any way. Always grasp the plug on the power cord when plugging or unplugging the receiver from the AC outlet.

Your system may produce sound levels capable of causing permanent hearing loss. Do not operate for extended periods of time at high volume levels

Protect the receiver from impact and place the receiver on a level surface.

The receiver is equipped with raised feet to provide ventilation, reduce acoustic feedback, and protect against scratching the surface the unit is resting on. URC advises against removing the feet.

DMS-AV HOME THEATER AMPLIFIER

It is recommended that the system speaker impedance seen by the amplifier channels of the receiver not fall below 4 ohms. Best amplifier thermal stability is achieved when it operates into a 4 ohms or greater speaker load. The nominal impedance of most home speakers range between 6 and 8 ohms.

The receiver should be serviced by qualified personnel when:

A.The receiver is not functioning properly.

B.Objects have entered the chassis.

C.The receiver was exposed to rain or any other type of moisture.

D.The receiver was dropped, or the chassis is damaged.

Any changes or modifications in construction of this device which are not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user`s authority to operate the equipment.

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 beused 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.

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 Resolutionn 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.

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.
