Connections

Here is explanation of how to connect the main components to the TX-DS595 in the standard manner. There are many ways that any one component can be connected, and it is up to you to decide which method best fits your situation. The directions given here are only one option and should only be thought of as such. It is best to fully understand the nature of each connector and terminal as well as each of your components and their features to ascertain which method of connection is best. Be sure to always refer to the instructions that came with the component that you are connecting. Do not plug in the power cord until all connections have been made. For input jacks, red connectors (marked R) are used for the right channel, white connectors (marked L) are used for the left channel, and yellow connectors (marked V) are used for video connection. Do not bind audio/video connection cables with power cords and speaker cables. Doing so may adversely affect the picture and sound quality. When using the digital inputs, make sure to also connect the analog connections whenever possible. Insert all plugs and connectors securely. Improper connections can result in noise, poor performance, or damage to the equipment.

Connecting your video components
Below is an example of how you can connect your video components to the TX-DS595. Refer to the diagram above for the following connection examples. The flow of the video signals is as follows: The signal that comes in from VIDEO IN is sent to VIDEO OUT. The signal that comes in from S VIDEO IN is sent to S VIDEO OUT 4. Connecting a DVD player (DVD) If the device is equipped with an S video output terminal, connect it to the DVD S VIDEO IN terminal with an S video cable. If it does not have an S video output terminal, connect its video output terminal to the DVD VIDEO IN terminal using an RCA-type video connection cable. You do not need to connect to both the DVD S VIDEO IN and DVD VIDEO IN terminals. Using an RCA-type audio connection cable, connect the audio output terminal on the device to the audio DVD IN jacks on the TXDS595. Make sure that you properly connect the left channel to the L jack and the right channel to the R jack.
If the device has a digital output jack as well, be sure to also connect it to either a DIGITAL INPUT (COAXIAL) or DIGITAL INPUT (OPTICAL) jack on the TX-DS595 depending on the type of connector on the DVD player. With the initial settings of the TX-DS595, the DVD input source is set for digital input at the COAXIAL 1 jack. If the digital connection is made at a different jack, this must be changed at the setup menu: Input Setup Audio Setup Digital Input (see page 29). 5. Connecting a video cassette recorder (VIDEO 1) If the video cassette recorder is equipped with an S video output terminal, connect it to the S VIDEO 1 IN terminal with an S video cable. If it does not have an S video output terminal, connect its video output terminal to the VIDEO 1 IN terminal using an RCAtype video connection cable. You do not need to connect to both the S VIDEO 1 IN and VIDEO 1 IN terminals. Using an RCA-type audio connection cable, connect the audio output terminal on the video cassette recorder to the same VIDEO 1 IN audio jacks on the TX-DS595 and audio input terminal to the VIDEO 1 OUT audio jacks. Make sure that you properly connect the left channel to the L jack and the right channel to the R jack.

Be sure to connect the positive and negative cables for the speakers properly. If they are mixed up, the left and right signals will be reversed and the audio will sound unnatural. Do not connect more than one speaker cable to one speaker terminal. Doing so may damage the TX-DS595. Use FRONT SPEAKERS B terminals to connect a second pair of front speakers. When you listen to surround audio or select Multichannel, be sure to turn on SPEAKERS A.
Connecting the speaker cable
1. Strip away 5/8 inch (15 mm) of wire insulation. 2. Twist wire ends very tight. 3. Unscrew

Listening to RDS broadcasts (European models only)
Listening to RDS broadcasts
RDS reception is available only on the European model and only in areas where RDS broadcasts are available. What is RDS? RDS stands for Radio Data System and is a type of FM broadcasting. RDS was developed within the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) and is available in most European countries. Many FM broadcasting stations now transmit the RDS signals, which provide the additional information required. RDS provides you with various services so that you can choose a station that broadcasts your favorite categories of music, news, or other information. There are three main classifications of RDS broadcasts. Though they can be tuned into by using the Tuning buttons as normal stations, RDS broadcasts allow you to scan for stations of the type and classification for which you are looking. This makes it much easier for you to find the station you want (see Performing a PTY scan and Performing a TP scan on page 24). The three main classifications are explained below. RT: Radio Text When an RDS station broadcasting RT information is selected, the text information received from the station is displayed. PTY: Program Type When an RDS station broadcasting PTY information is selected, the station type (classification) is displayed. TP: Traffic Program When an RDS station broadcasting TP information is selected, traffic information will be broadcasted periodically. Notes: In some cases, the characters displayed on the display of the TXDS595 may not be exactly the same as the ones broadcast by the radio station. Also, unusual characters may appear on the display if the TX-DS595 receives characters that cannot be displayed correctly. This is not a malfunction. When an RDS station broadcasting PS information is selected, the name of the station is displayed instead of the frequency.

* If the input signal does not have a program format, then this will be skipped. When FM or AM is selected as the input source:
FM/AM frequency + Preset no.

Adjusting the volume

Adjusting the main volume adjusts the volume level output from all the speakers connected to the TX-DS595 together. If headphones are connected, this also adjusts the volume heard from the headphone speakers. To adjust the volume, either press the VOL buttons on the remote controller or turn the MASTER VOLUME dial. To increase the volume, turn the dial clockwise; to decrease the volume, turn the dial counterclockwise. The volume can be set to Min, 1 to 79, and Max.

You may, however, use these buttons to program the codes for other remote controllers. If you wish to restore the Onkyo preset codes after you program new codes, you must first erase the new codes (see page 44). The remote controller has 408 memory slots (8 modes 51 buttons). Some remote controllers may have more commands that can be remembered by the remote controller. In such cases, it will be necessary for you to determine which commands are more important than others. If no button is pressed for more than 30 seconds during the programming, or if you perform an invalid operation during programming, the SEND/LEARN indicator flashes three times quickly, and the remote controller exits the programming mode. Resume from Step 2. If a failure occurs during programming, the SEND/LEARN indicator flashes three times quickly, and the remote controller exits the programming mode. Resume from Step 3. If a failure occurs five times in row during programming, the remote controller exits the programming mode. Resume from Step 3. If you try to program beyond the learning capacity of the remote controller, the SEND/LEARN indicator flashes six times quickly, and the remote controller exits the programming mode. Try programming under a different MODE button. When you want to program a command to a button to which you have already programmed a command, simply follow the same procedure given and programming for that button will be overwritten. The remote controller uses infrared rays to send its commands, as do most other remote controllers. Though most remote controller codes can be memorized by the remote controller, be aware that some remote controllers use a system that is quite different from the remote controller and therefore may not be able to be programmed. Some remote controllers have a single button that performs multiple functions (for example, the function may change each time the button is pressed). If this is the case, each function must be programmed to a separate button on the remote controller. Once you have transferred the commands from the other remote controller, refer to the instruction manual that came with that product for instructions on how to operate that product. Make sure both the remote controller and the other remote controller have new batteries. If either of them has batteries that are low, you may not be able to program the commands of the other remote controller properly into the remote controller. See page 48 for how to erase the memorized commands from all buttons.

Troubleshooting guide

If a problem occurs while you are using the remote controller, first try to operate the controls on the front panel of the TX-DS595 to make sure that it is not due to a malfunction (or worn out batteries) in the remote controller. Low frequency humming is heard. Not properly grounded. Check outer conductor of input plugs. Turntable motor is not properly grounded. Check for proper ground connection. Audio connection cables on the rear panel are connected incorrectly. Adjust the placement of the cable to reduce hum. Howling is heard when the volume is turned up. Turntable and speakers are located too close together. Move them farther apart. Rough or scratchy sound is heard. High range is not clear. The needles of turntable is dirty or worn, or a problem exists with a connected component. Refer to the instruction of the connected components and check for problem. Treble control is too high. Turn treble down.
Power shuts off immediately after power on. Amplifier protection circuitry has been activated. Remove the power cord from outlet immediately. Contact your Onkyo service center. No power. Power cord is disconnected. Connect power cord. External noise in the affecting the internal microcomputer. Turn the power button off and then on again or remove the power cord from the outlet and then plug it in again. Internal fuse is blown. Contact your Onkyo Service Center. Power turns on but no sound. MUTING is displayed. Press the MUTING button on the remote controller to turn it off. Bad connections or wiring. Check connections, speaker cables, etc. Amplifier protection circuitry has been activated. Contact your Onkyo Service Center. The sound of the playback source is not heard. Input selector is not set properly. Set to correct input source. Headphones are connected. Lower volume and then disconnect headphones. Pressing the ON button on the remote controller does not turn on the power to the main unit. You have not pressed RCVR MODE button. Press the RCVR MODE button, then press the ON button.

Purposely Designed to Rise Above Mass-Market Gear
For more than ten years, our engineers have been refining and improving this receiver. Thats why its enjoyed unparalleled success as one of the worlds bestselling A/V components. Important features that distinguish the TX-DS595 from similarly priced receivers include its Wide Range Amplifier Technology, which means it can handle DVD-Audio or Super Audio CD, an innovative Smart Scan Navigator that makes setup amazingly simple, and A-Form, an intelligent listening mode memory that senses the digital format and switches to the user-configured soundfield. The TX-DS595 also provides Onkyo circuit refinements, like Optimum Gain Volume control and Non-Scaling circuitry, which are found on our most expensive receivers, to deliver an unsurpassed level of sonic excellence for this class.
Dolby Pro Logic II This new surround-sound decoding process delivers Dolby Digital-like, quasi5.1-channel sound from stereo music recordings, and from stereo- and Dolby Surround-encoded movie soundtracks. It also provides significantly better channel separation than standard Dolby Pro Logic, and offers stereo surround channels, which is a big improvement over plain Pro Logics single, mono surround channel. Wide Range Amplifier Technology (WRAT) Onkyo-exclusive WRAT offers three distinct advantages: 1) Low negativefeedback design; 2) Elimination of ground-potential fluctuations; and 3) High instantaneous current capability. The advantage for movie and music lovers is sound purity and impact that conventional receivers simply cannot match. Optimum Gain Volume Circuitry To produce volume at low levels, conventional volume-attenuation methods must initially drop a signal close to the noise floor. This often taints the signal with a small amount of noise, which becomes amplified when the signal is amplified. Onkyos Optimum Gain Volume Circuitry solves this problem by adjusting the gain so that less than half the typical amount of attenuation is needed. This ensures that the signal never comes close to the noise floor, and thereby eliminates the possibility of noise contamination that plagues conventional volume-attenuation designs. A-Form This Onkyo-exclusive feature not only remembers the surround mode you entered during the configuration process for each input source, but also the settings you made for each signal type at that sourceand automatically selects your settings when you choose that source. So if your DVD player doubles as your CD player, you can set the receivers DVD input to always playback digital surround sources (DTS/Dolby Digital) directly in 5.1-channel surround sound and 2-channel CDs in, say, All-Channel Stereo mode, for example.
User-Friendly Smart Scan Navigator (SSN) New to the TX-DS595, the SSN significantly increases flexibility by allowing you to perform less frequently needed functionsprogramming of tuner presets, adjusting surround sound mode parameters, or matching channel levelswith a single, simple-to-use knob in conjunction with display prompts. Designed to Handle Todays and Tomorrows High-Resolution Multichannel A/V Sources To accommodate the wide dynamic range of sources like DVD-Audio and Super Audio CD, the TX-DS595 delivers a stereo frequency response from 10 Hz to 100,000 Hz. The unit also features a 5.1-channel input, meaning its ready for new multichannel formats down the road. Powerful Programmed/Learning Multibrand Remote with Macros Unlike many other manufacturers remotes, the TX-DS595s remote has direct-access buttons to individual inputs (DVD, VCR, TV, etc.), so you dont have to search through layers of menus just to play a source. Each inputmode button also has its own LED, which, when you press any button on the remote, will light to tell you which source is currently engaged. Another plus: the codes to control other manufacturers gear are preprogrammed*so you dont have to go through the annoying process of searching for and entering a number. The remote can also learn the control codes of other remotes for single-remote operation of A/V equipment from other manufacturers. And its macro capability enables you to program a series of button operations (up to 16) into a single button.
