Precautions  
1. Recording Copyright  
For U.S. models  
Recording of copyrighted material for other than personal use is  
illegal without permission of the copyright holder.  
2. AC Fuse  
The fuse is located inside the chassis and is not user-serviceable. If power  
does not come on, contact your Integra/Onkyo authorized service station.  
3. Care  
Note to CATV system installer:  
This reminder is provided to call the CATV system installer’s  
attention to Section 820-40 of the NEC which provides guidelines  
for proper grounding and, in particular, specifies that the cable  
ground shall be connected to the grounding system of the building,  
as close to the point of cable entry as practical.  
From time to time you should wipe the front and rear panels and the  
cabinet with a soft cloth. For heavier dirt, dampen a soft cloth in a  
weak solution of mild detergent and water, wring it out dry, and  
wipe off the dirt. Following this, dry immediately with a clean  
cloth. Do not use rough material, thinners, alcohol or other  
chemical solvents or cloths since these could damage the finish or  
remove the panel lettering.

About HomeTheater  
Enjoying Home Theater  
The DTR-6.4/5.4 has many excellent features to recreate clear three-dimensional sound image and lively sound movement. This enables you  
to easily enjoy rich sound effects just like you were in a theater or concert hall at home.  
For the DTR-6.4, Integra recommends you to use the THX-certified THX speaker system for THX Surround EX playback.  
When playing DVD software, you can enjoy sound effects provided by DTS, Dolby Digital or THX (DTR-6.4 only) depending on recording  
formats. In addition, you can enjoy Integra’s proprietary DSP surround playback for TV or satellite broadcast.  
How to use speakers  
When you have two speakers, they are used for front left and right speakers. (2-channel playback)  
When you have three speakers, they are used for front left, front right and center speakers. (3-channel surround playback)  
When you have four speakers, they are used for front left, front right, surround left and surround right speakers. (4-channel surround  
playback)  
When you have five speakers, they are used for front left, front right, center, surround left and surround right speakers. (5-channel surround  
playback)  
When you have six speakers, they are used for front left, front right, center, surround left, surround right and surround back speakers. (6-  
channel surround playback)  
(For DTR-6.4 only)  
When you have seven speakers and use a power amplifier connected to the PRE OUT terminals on the DTR-6.4, the speakers are used for  
front left, front right, center, surround left, surround right, surround back left and surround back right speakers. (7-channel surround  
playback)  
No matter how many speakers you use, subwoofer can be used to produce powerful and heavy bass sound. (0.1-channel playback)  
Front left and right speakers  
Output overall sound. They play most important role for home theater  
system, creating basic sound image and field.  
Place the front speakers in front of the listener so that they point to  
listener’s ears in listening position for music and movies. Ideal  
speaker placement is that they are located symmetrically.  
Surround back speaker  
Enhance the sound space representation  
with  
surround  
channel  
signal,  
Center speaker  
recreating sound movement effect and  
sound field in the back of the listener  
more real.  
Complements the sound effect  
from front left and right speakers  
to enrich and clear the sound  
image and movement. In movies,  
actor's speech mainly comes out  
from the center speaker.  
Place the center speaker as close  
as possible to the TV or monitor,  
pointing toward listener’s ears.  
Also keep the center speaker’s  
height as same level as possible to  
front left and right speakers.  
For DTR-6.4 users:  
When you use two surround back  
speakers, you need to connect external  
stereo amplifier to the PRE OUT  
terminals on the DTR-6.4.  
Subwoofer  
Outputs only bass sound to  
enhance and complement bass  
sound effect. Place the subwoofer  
at either front corner of the room  
or at 1/3 position from either front  
corner of the room.  
Surround left and right speakers  
Enhance the live presence. They represent the  
three-dimensional sound movement with sound  
effects. Place the surround speakers at the side  
of the listener or at the diagonal position from  
the listener. Ideal speaker placement is that they  
are located symmetrically.  
• For optimum surround playback, you need to set the distance between the listener and speakers so that the time the sound from speakers  
reach the listener is constant. Also you need to set the speaker volume level individually for balancing the volume level between speakers.

Note:  
If you connect the surround back speakers to the power amplifier  
connected to the SURR BACK PRE OUT terminals on the DTR-6.4  
for 7.1ch sound playback, do not connect the surround back  
speakers to the SURROUND BACK SPEAKER terminals on the  
DTR-6.4 Connecting the surround back speakers to both the DTR-  
6.4 and power amplifier will not produce correct surround sound  
effect.  
Two surround back speakers (DTR-6.4 only)  
When using two surround back speakers, make connections  
between the PRE OUT terminals on the DTR-6.4/5.4 and the audio  
input terminals on the external stereo amplifier, and connect the  
speakers to the external amplifier.  
The figure on left below shows the speaker placement for dipolar  
speakers.  
Dipole speakers are the bidirectional speakers which produces same  
sound in two directions such as both forward and backward.  
Most dipole speakers have an arrow on them which can be used to  
match the audio phase*. For making the audio phase in the room  
correct, dipolar surround speakers should be placed so that their  
arrows point toward the screen and dipolar surround back speakers  
should be placed so that their arrows point each other.

• Do not connect more than one speaker cable to one speaker  
terminal. Doing so may damage the DTR-6.4/5.4.  
• (DTR-6.4 only) When using  
surround back left and right  
speakers, place them behind the  
listener so that the angles between  
the lines from each speaker to the  
listener and a line straight back from  
the listener are less than 30 degrees.  
• Even if you are using only one speaker or listening to monaural  
(mono) sound, never connect a single speaker in parallel to both  
the right and left-channel terminals.

Using RCA audio cables, connect the output jacks (PLAY) of the  
device to the TAPE IN audio jacks of the DTR-6.4/5.4 and connect  
the input jacks (REC) of the device to the TAPE OUT audio jacks  
of the DTR-6.4/5.4. Make sure that you properly connect the left  
channels to the L jacks and the right channels to the R jacks.  
Below is an example of how you can connect your audio  
components to the DTR-6.4/5.4. Refer to the diagram above for the  
following connection examples.  
1. Connecting a compact disc player (CD)  
If the device has a digital output, connect it to either the DIGITAL  
IN COAXIAL jack or the DIGITAL IN OPTICAL jack of the DTR-  
6.4/5.4 depending on the type of connector on the device.  
Using an RCA audio cable, connect the output jacks of the compact  
disc player to the CD audio jacks of the DTR-6.4/5.4. Make sure  
that you properly connect the left channel to the L jack and the right  
channel to the R jack.

2. Connecting a turntable (PHONO) (DTR-6.4 only)  
the digital signal input to the DIGITAL IN jack.  
Using an RCA audio cable, connect the output jacks of the turntable  
to the PHONO audio jacks of the DTR-6.4. Make sure that you  
properly connect the left channel to the L jack and the right channel  
to the R jack.  
Note:  
The DTR-6.4 is designed for use with moving magnet cartridges.  
For proper operation, connect a ground (or earth) wire to the GND  
terminal. For some turntables, however, connecting the ground wire  
may cause increased noise, and in such a case, a ground wire is not  
necessary and should not be connected.

Connecting your video components  
Below is an example of how you can connect your video  
components to the DTR-6.4/5.4. Refer to the diagram above for the  
following connection examples.  
For USA and Canadian models (DTR-6.4 only)  
The VIDEO and S VIDEO signals can be output through the  
COMPONENT OUT terminals. Even if the video component like  
VCRs does not have COMPONENT output terminals, you can play  
COMPONENT VIDEO INPUT/OUTPUT  
the video through  
a
projector or TV connected to the  
For DVD players or other devices that have component video  
connectors, the DTR-6.4/5.4 has two banks of component video  
input connectors (Y, PB, PR) for direct component video input.  
DTR-6.4/5.4 also has one bank of component video output  
connectors for direct component video output to the matrix decoder  
of a television, projector, or other display device. By sending the  
pure component video signal directly, the signal forgoes the extra  
processing that normally would degrade the image. The result is  
vastly increased image quality, with incredibly lifelike colors and  
crisp detail.  
COMPONENT OUTPUT terminals. If you want to output the  
VIDEO and S VIDEO signals through the COMPONENT OUT  
terminals, you need to set the Component Videosetting in Input  
Setupto Video(see page 34).  
4. Connecting a television monitor or projector (MONITOR  
OUT)  
The DTR-6.4/5.4 is equipped with a simpleY/C separate circuit and  
simple Y/C mixed circuit. Since both the signal from the S and V  
inputs are output to the MONITOR OUT S output, if the television  
or projector is equipped with an S video input, it is unnecessary to  
connect the video connectors. If it is equipped with only a video  
input, connect it to the MONITOR OUT V output.  
Using an RCA video cable, connect the video input jack  
(composite) of the device to the MONITOR OUT V jack of the  
DTR-6.4/5.4. Or if the device has an S video input jack, connect it  
to the MONITOR OUT S jack of the DTR-6.4/5.4 using an S video  
cable. Or if the device has component video inputs, connect them to  
the bank of COMPONENT VIDEO OUTPUT jacks on the DTR-  
6.4/5.4.  
VIDEO IN/OUT, S VIDEO IN/OUT  
These are the video inputs and outputs. On the rear panel, there are  
four video inputs and two video outputs and each one includes both  
composite video and S video congurations.  
Connect VCRs, VTRs, LD players, DVD players, and other video  
components to the video inputs. Connect VCRs, VTRs, and other  
recording components to the video outputs to make video  
recordings.  
When connecting a VCR or other video component, make sure  
you connect its audio and video leads to the same bank (e.g.,  
both to VIDEO 3).  
The VIDEO 4 inputs are located on the front panel.  
The flow of the video signals:  
The signal that comes in from a VIDEO IN jack is sent to both the  
VIDEO OUT and S VIDEO OUT jacks. The signal that comes in  
from a S VIDEO IN jack is sent to both the S VIDEO OUT and  
VIDEO OUT jacks. It is not necessary to make both video and S  
video connections.  
The signal that comes in from COMPONENT VIDEO INPUT is  
only sent to COMPONENT VIDEO OUTPUT. When connecting a

Connecting antennas  
To use the tuner of the DTR-6.4/5.4, it is necessary to prepare the  
supplied FM and AM antennas.  
Connecting the included antennas  
• Adjustment and placement of the FM and AM antennas for  
better reception must be done while listening to a station  
broadcast.  
Connecting the FM indoor antenna:  
The FM indoor antenna is for indoor use only. During use, extend  
the antenna and adjust its orientation until the clearest signal is  
received. Fix it with push pins or similar items in the position that  
will cause the least amount of distortion.  
• If better reception cannot be obtained, then placement of an  
outside antenna is recommended.  
If the reception is not very clear with the attached FM indoor  
antenna, the use of an outdoor antenna is recommended.  
Assembling the AM loop antenna  
Connecting the AM loop antenna:  
The AM loop antenna is for indoor use only. Set it in the direction  
and position where you receive the clearest sound. Put it as far away  
as possible from the DTR-6.4/5.4, televisions, speaker cables, and  
power cords.  
Assemble the loop antenna as shown in the illustration.  
• Refer to “Connecting the AM loop antenna” below for details  
on how to connect the loop antenna.  
If the reception is not very clear with the attached AM indoor  
antenna, the use of an outdoor antenna is recommended.

Connecting antennas  
Connecting an FM outdoor antenna  
Directional linkage  
Make sure to follow the general rules given below:  
Do not use the same antenna for both FM and TV (or VCR)  
reception since the FM and TV (or VCR) signals can interfere with  
each other. If you must use a common FM/TV (or VCR) antenna,  
use a directional linkage type splitter.  
• Keep the antenna away from noise sources (neon signs, busy  
roads, etc.).  
• It is dangerous to put the antenna close to power lines. Keep it  
well away from power lines, transformers, etc.

Connecting the remote zone (Zone 2) speakers  
The DTR-6.4/5.4 allows you to listen to two separate input sources  
When using the ZONE 2 LINE OUT terminals  
at the same time. This allows you to, for example, place speakers in  
two different rooms so that two or more people can enjoy two  
different kinds of music at the same time. The room where the  
DTR-6.4/5.4 is actually located is referred to as the main room  
while the separate room is referred to as the remote zone (Zone 2).  
In addition, the IR IN terminal of the DTR-6.4/5.4 allows you to  
control the DTR-6.4/5.4 from the remote zone (Zone 2) with the  
remote controller even though the remote zone is physically  
separated (see next page).  
1. Connect the DTR-6.4/5.4 to the pre-main amplier for  
the remote zone.  
Connect to the LINE input of the amplifier (CD, tape, etc.).  
2. Connect the remote zone speaker cables to the  
speaker terminals on the amplier.  
3. Adjust the volume with the amplier.  
The ZONE 2 LINE OUT terminals of the DTR-6.4/5.4 are of a  
fixed output level.  
The DTR-6.4/5.4 provides you with the following three connection  
methods to use the remote zone (Zone 2). Choose a method  
according to your components or purposes.  
When you want to enjoy music using the DTR-6.4/5.4 for the  
main room and the remote zone without additional amplifiers:  
Connect the speakers for the remote zone to the ZONE2  
SPEAKERS terminals. While you play something in the remote  
zone, only 2ch playback is available for the main room.  
Remote Zone (Zone 2)  
Zone 2  
Left speaker  
Zone 2  
Right speaker  
When you want to enjoy multichannel playback in the main  
room while playing something in the remote zone:  
Connect the pre-main amplifier to the LINE ZONE2 or PREOUT  
ZONE2 terminals and then connect the speakers to the pre-main  
amplifier. For the PREOUT ZONE2 terminals, you may connect the  
power amplifier instead of the pre-main amplifier.  
Pre-main amplier  
When connecting to the LINE ZONE2 terminals: Since the  
output level from the LINE ZONE2 terminals is fixed, you have  
to adjust volume level on the pre-main amplifier.  
When connecting to the PREOUT ZONE2 terminals: The  
volume level adjustment can be made either on the DTR-6.4/5.4  
or pre-main amplifier.

Operating components not reached by the remote  
controller signals (IR IN)  
In order to use the remote controller to control the DTR-6.4/5.4  
from a remote location, you will need to prepare a multi-room  
kit (sold separately) such as one of those given below:  
Make the connections as shown below. Do not plug in any  
equipment to the power outlet until all the connections are complete.

If the DTR-6.4/5.4 is located inside a cabinet or other enclosure  
where the infrared rays from the remote controller cannot enter,  
then operation with the remote controller will not be possible. In  
such a case, it will be necessary to install a remote sensor at a  
location outside of the cabinet where the infrared rays from the  
controller can reach.

In this situation, you will need to use a commercially available IR  
emitter. Connect the mini plug of the IR emitter to the IR OUT  
terminal on the DTR-6.4/5.4 and then place the IR emitter on the  
remote sensor of the component or facing it. When the IR emitter is  
connected, only the signal input to the IR IN terminal is output to  
the IR OUT terminal. The signal input from the remote sensor on  
the front of the DTR-6.4/5.4 will not be output to the IR OUT  
terminal.

Miscellaneous Connections  
• If a component has two  
terminals, you can use either one to  
connect to the DTR-6.4/5.4. The other one can be used to daisy  
chain with another component.  
Connections for remote control  
The  
terminal on the DTR-6.4/5.4 is for connecting other  
same terminal.  
• With Integra/Onkyo DVD players, you can enter the pre-  
program code so that you can operate the DVD player directly  
with the remote controller without connecting the  
(see pages 66 and 67).  
Integra/Onkyo components equipped with the  
When a component is connected to the terminal, it can be operated  
by the remote controller supplied with the DTR-6.4/5.4. In addition,  
when you connect a component to the  
terminals  
terminal, you can also  
perform the system operations given below.  
Power on/ready function  
When the DTR-6.4/5.4 is in the standby state, if an  
RS232  
-connected  
component is turned on, the DTR-6.4/5.4 also turns on and the input  
source selected at the DTR-6.4/5.4 automatically switches to that  
component.  
Be aware that this function will not work if the power cord for the  
-connected component is connected to the AC OUTLET on the  
DTR-6.4/5.4, or if the DTR-6.4/5.4 has already been turned on.  
The RS232 port is to be used in conjunction with an external  
controller to control the operation of the DTR-6.4/5.4 by using an  
external device.  
Direct change function  
When the play button is pressed at an  
A-BUS  
-connected component,  
the input source selected at the DTR-6.4/5.4 automatically changes  
to that component.  
A-BUS is a simple, efficient, elegant audio distribution system. The  
wiring installation time is significantly reduced as only a single  
CAT-5 wire is run to each location. A-BUS is easy to use, reliable,  
affordable, and most of all, far better sounding than conventional  
autoformer based volume controls.  
Power off function  
When the DTR-6.4/5.4 is placed in the standby state, all  
-
connected components are also automatically put into the standby  
state.  
ZONE 2 OUT: Use a CAT-5 (eight conductor twisted) cable to  
connect directly from the receiver’s A-BUS RJ45 Hub to an A-BUS  
keypad.  
Also, if you press the On button on the DTR-6.4/5.4 remote  
controller while the DTR-6.4/5.4 is turned on, all  
-connected  
components (DVD players, CD players, MD recorders, tuners, etc.)  
are also turned on.  
Warning:  
DO NOT connect A-BUS outputs to any computer or network  
connections (i.e. ethernet). It will cause damage to the computer or  
network components as 24-volt power runs on this same cable to  
power the amplifier stages of the amplifier module.  
Dimmer function  
The Dimmer function (display brightness adjustment) of the DTR-  
6.4/5.4 can be used to synchronize the display brightness on the  
connected device using the  
connection.  
IR OUT: Another feature of the A-BUS system is the ability to  
control source equipment in another room where the A-BUS  
module is installed. If you wish to control another source from the  
receiver at the A-BUS keypad by remote control, connect A-BUS or  
another brands' IR emitter on the receiver's 40 k terminal. Then  
place the emitter on the remote receiver on the front panel.  
Caution:  
If an MD recorder is connected to the TAPE jack on the DTR-6.4/  
5.4, switch the Input Selector from TAPE to MD (see page 35).  
DTR-6.4/5.4  
Typically, the emitter will work when you connect with a 40 K  
connector. If it does not work, try a 56 K connector.  
DC IN: Connect A-BUS power supply. Do not use any other AC  
Adapter on this connector as it may cause severe damage to the receiver.

• Before you plug in the DTR-6.4/5.4, confirm that all  
connections have been made properly.  
Turning on the power from the remote controller  
• Turning on the power may cause a momentary power surge,  
which might interfere with other electrical equipment on the  
same circuit, such as computers. If this happens, use a wall  
outlet on a different circuit.  
Before you can use the remote controller, you must perform step 1  
above and place the DTR-6.4/5.4 in the standby state.  
1. Press the RCVR Mode button.  
The RCVR Mode button lights.  
Turning on the power  
2. Press the On button to turn on the  
DTR-6.4/5.4 (take it out of the  
standby state).  
1. Plug the power cord into an AC wall outlet.  
The Standby indicator will light up.  
To return the DTR-6.4/5.4 to the standby  
state, press the Standby button.  
2. Press the Standby/On button to turn on the DTR-6.4/  
5.4.  
The display will light up and the Standby indicator will turn off.  
Memory preservation  
If you press the Standby/On button again, the receiver returns to  
standby state.  
The DTR-6.4/5.4 does not require memory preservation  
batteries. A built-in memory backup system preserves the  
contents of memory (e.g., speaker settings and surround  
settings) during power failures and even when the unit is  
unplugged. The unit must be plugged in order to charged the  
back-up system.  
Turn off  
The length of time that the memory will be preserved will vary  
depending on the ambient climate. On the average, memory  
contents are protected over a period of a few weeks after the last  
time the unit has been unplugged. This period may be shorter  
when the unit is exposed to a highly humid climate.

While listening to or watching an input source, you can display the  
information regarding the type of source and signal being input by  
pressing the Display button on the DTR-6.4/5.4 or the remote  
controller.  
You can set separate video displays for when the input source is set  
to AM or FM broadcasts and for when it is set to anything else.  
To change the individual speaker volumes temporarily, follow the  
procedure given below. Each channel can be set between –12 and +12  
decibels. For subwoofer, values between –15 and +12 decibels can be  
set. Note that the calibration settings will return to the original  
settings when the DTR-6.4/5.4 is put in standby.

Audio Selector  
Notes on DTS:  
Selecting the type of audio input signal  
• If you play a DTS-formatted CD or LD when the “PCM”  
setting is selected on the DTR-6.4/5.4, the DTS encoded signal  
will not be decoded and noise will be output. This noise could  
damage the amplifier and speakers. Therefore, be sure to select  
“Auto” or “DTS” and use the digital input jacks (OPT or  
COAX) to connect the DTS source.  
Press the Audio Selector button on the front panel (or Audio Sel  
button on the remote controller) to change the audio mode. Each  
time the button is pressed, the mode changes from “Auto” →  
“Multich” (only if DVD is selected as the input source) “Analog”  
and back to “Auto.”  
• If you play a DTS-formatted CD or LD when “Auto” is  
selected, you may hear a noise for a short while until the DTS  
decoder recognizes the DTS-encoded signal and starts  
operating. This is not a malfunction.  
DTR-6.4/5.4  
Remote controller  
Audio Sel  
A
• If you press the pause or skip button on the player while playing  
a DTS source, a short noise may be heard. This is not a  
malfunction. In such cases, try playing the source in the “DTS”  
selected.  
Auto (automatic detection): With this setting, the DTR-6.4/5.4  
automatically detects whether the input signal is digital or analog.  
When a digital signal is not input, then the analog signal is played.  
This setting only appears if a digital input is selected for the Digital  
Input setting at “Input Setup” “Digital Input” (see page 34).  
• The DTS indicator on the DTR-6.4/5.4 lights while a DTS  
source is played. When playback finishes and the DTS signal  
transmission stops, the DTR-6.4/5.4 remains in DTS mode and  
the DTS indicator remains lit. This prevents noise when you  
operate the pause or skip button on the player. Therefore, if the  
source is immediately switched from DTS to PCM, the PCM  
signal may not be played. In this case, stop the playback of the  
source on the player for about three seconds and then resume  
playback.  
Multich (Multichannel): Select this setting to play back the multi-  
channel input from a DVD player with a 5.1-channel input port.  
Analog: Select this setting to play back the input from a source  
component connected to analog audio input jacks. With this setting,  
even if a digital signal is input from the same component, only the  
analog signal will be output.  
You may not be able to play some DTS source signals from  
certain CD players and LD players even when you connect the  
player to the DTR-6.4/5.4 digitally. This is because the digital  
signal has been processed (such as the output level, sampling  
frequency, or frequency response) and the DTR-6.4/5.4 cannot  
recognize the signal as DTS data. Therefore you may hear noise  
when you play a DTS source while processing the signal.  
Selecting the setting mode with the Cursor  
while “Auto” appears  
/
button  
Auto: The digital signal suitable for the input signal will be  
preceded for playback. When there is no digital signal input, analog  
signal will be played.  
• The outputs for the VIDEO 1 OUT, VIDEO 2 OUT, and TAPE  
OUT output analog audio signals. Do not record from CDs or  
LDs that support DTS using these outputs. If you do, the DTS-  
encoded signal will be recorded as noise.  
DTS: Select this if you play DTS-formatted CD in “Auto” mode  
and hear noise during fast-forward or rewind operation. Non-DTS  
sound input will not be output.  
PCM: Select this if you hear sound gap between PCM tracks such  
as ones on CD in “Auto” mode. Non-PCM sound input will not be  
output.  
• If a CD or LD encoded in the DTS format is played back with  
“PCM” selected, only noise will be produced. Always select  
“Auto” or “DTS” when playing back DTS-encoded sources.  
Notes:  
• When you play DTS-formatted CD or LD, be sure to select  
“Auto” or “DTS.” If you select “PCM,” noise will be heard.  
• If a DTS signal is not input when “DTS” is selected, the DTR-  
6.4/5.4 will not automatically switch to analog output even  
though “Auto” is selected with the Audio Selector button.

Listening Modes  
The DTR-6.4/5.4’s surround sound enables you to enjoy the  
presence of a movie theater or concert hall in your room.  
The configuration of the speakers is very important for the surround  
sound. Refer to “About Home Theater” on page 14.  
Before using a listening mode, make sure the Speaker Config has  
been set (see page 33). Once the parameters have been set, it is not  
necessary to set them again. For getting accurate surround effect,  
you are recommended to perform the settings on the Speaker  
Distance and Level Calibration (see pages 52 to 55). See pages 46  
and 47 for information regarding how to select the listening mode.  
• Dolby Digital EX  
Enabled when playing back sources with surround tracks that  
were encoded using the Surround EX technology.  
• Dialog norm  
Dialogue Normalization (Dialog Norm) is a feature of Dolby  
Digital. When playing back software that has been encoded in  
Dolby Digital, sometimes you may see a brief message in the  
front panel display that reads Dialog Norm xdB (“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. This data is automatically used by the Dolby  
Digital decoder to adjust the output volume of the source  
material without affecting the volume of your amplifier.  
Therefore, even if source material volume changes, you will  
not have to adjust the volume on your amplifier.  
Listening Modes  
Mono  
This mode is for playing old movies where the sound is recorded in  
monaural or for playing the left and right channels of movies  
separately that contain different language signals. This mode also  
allows you to listen to the multiplexed soundtracks on DVDs, and  
other media that have them.  
DTS Neo:6  
This mode is for 6.1-channel playback of sources such as PCM or  
analog sources that have only two channels. The outputs of all six  
channels are a wide frequency range with a great separation  
between the different channels.  
Direct  
This mode delivers pure sound with minimum sound quality  
adjustment and filtration. The sound recorded for the right and left  
front channels is output to the right and left front speakers only and  
not output to the subwoofer.  
This mode can be set to the Cinema mode designed for playing  
movies and the Music mode designed for listening to music.  
The Cinema mode is good for movies. The reproduced surround  
sound provide the same realistic feel of movement as 6.1-channel  
sources. This mode can be used with VHS and television programs  
with stereo sound.  
Pure Audio (DTR-6.4 only)  
Same as the direct mode except that the pure audio mode also turns  
off the display window, turns off the power supply to the video  
circuitry, and minimizes the sources of noise. The result is high-  
fidelity music playback true to the original source.  
The Music mode uses the surround channels to provide a natural  
sound space that cannot be provided with normal stereo output. This  
mode can be used with music CDs and other stereo sources.  
Stereo  
DTS  
All input sound is output from the left and right front speakers.  
The subwoofer is also used for playback.  
This mode is used for playing DTS source.  
DTS (Digital Theater System) is compressed digital data with a  
maximum 5.1-channel surround output (6.1-channel with DTS-ES  
Discrete sources) that allows for an extremely high-quality sound. This  
source signal requires a DVD player that supports DTS output and  
T-D (Theater-Dimensional)  
For the best enjoyment of your home theater, it is recommended that  
you have front left and right speakers, a center speaker, and surround  
left and right speakers. However, if you only have front left and right  
speakers, you can enjoy multichannel audio by using this mode.  
This mode controls the characteristics of the sound that reaches  
each ear to reproduce a multi-speaker setup. To receive the full  
effect, there is an optimum listening position (sweet spot). Refer to  
the explanation of the listening angle. In addition, if the reflective  
sound components are large, it may be difficult to achieve the  
desired result, so be sure to set up your system and listening  
position to minimize reflective sound.  
comes from DVDs, compact discs, and LDs that have the  
mark.  
DTS-ES Discrete 6.1  
With the addition of the surround back channel, this new format has all 6.1  
channels recorded independently for a completely discrete digital format.  
Since all channels are recorded independently, high-fidelity surround  
playback with the increased feeling of a separated sound space is achieved.  
DTS-ES Matrix 6.1  
This format has the surround back channel matrix encoded and  
inserted into the left and right surround channels so that at playback  
the output for the left, right, and back surround channels are  
decoded using a high-precision matrix decoder.  
Dolby Pro Logic II  
Opposed to Dolby Pro Logic, which had four channels (front, left,  
center, and surround) recorded into two channels with matrix  
processing and then played back in four channels, Dolby Pro Logic  
II uses a feedback logic circuit to have 5.1-channel surround audio  
(Dolby Surround, etc.) matrix-encoded into two channels and then  
played back in its original 5.1-channel form.  
DTS 96/24  
Automatically changes to this mode when playing back sources with  
surround tracks that were encoded using the DTS 96/24 technology.  
THX (DTR-6.4 only)  
Dolby Pro Logic II provides a Movie mode designed for playing  
movies and a Music mode designed for listening to music. In the  
Movie mode, the surround channels, which used to provide  
monaural output over only a narrow frequency range, now provide  
complete stereo output over the full frequency range. The result is  
movie viewing with a realistic feel of movement. The Music mode  
uses the surround channels to provide a natural soundfield that  
cannot be provided with normal stereo output.  
This mode can be used with VHS and DVD videos with the  
mark and certain television programs. The  
Music mode can be used with music compact discs and other stereo  
sources.  
THX is an exclusive set of standards and technologies established by  
the world-renowned film production company, Lucasfilm Ltd. THX  
grew from George Lucas’ personal desire to make your experience  
of the film soundtrack, in both movie theaters and in your home  
theater, as faithful as possible to what the director intended.  
Movie soundtracks are mixed in special movie theaters called  
dubbing stages and are designed to be played back in movie theaters  
with similar equipment and conditions. This same soundtrack is then  
transferred directly onto LD, VHS tape, DVD, etc., and is not  
changed for playback in a small home theater environment.  
THX engineers developed patented technologies to accurately  
translate the sound from the movie theater environment into the home,  
correcting the tonal and spatial errors that occur. On this product,  
when the THX indicator is on, THX features are automatically added  
in Cinema modes (e.g. THX Cinema, THX Surround EX).  
Dolby D (Dolby Digital)  
This mode is used for playing Dolby Digital sources.  
Dolby Digital is compressed digital data with a maximum of 5.1-  
channel surround sound. This source signal comes from DVDs and

Enhance  
With multi channel speakers, you will get more active surround  
effect. When using the surround back speaker, the sound effect  
moves naturally through the surround back speaker position. This  
mode is good for music and TV sports programs.  
“THX Surround EX - Dolby Digital Surround EX” is a joint  
development of Dolby Laboratories and the THX division of THX 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.  
When released to the home consumer market, movies that were  
created using the Dolby Digital Surround EX technology, may  
have a note to that effect on the packaging. A list of movies  
created using this technology can be found on the Dolby web  
Orchestra  
This mode is appropriate for classical and opera music. The center  
channel is cut and the surround channels are emphasized to widen  
the stereo image. It will simulate the natural reverberation that is  
created in large halls.  
Unplugged  
This mode is suitable for acoustical instrumental sounds, vocals,  
and jazz music. By emphasizing the front stereo image, it will  
simulate the acoustics that you would experience in front of the stage.  
Studio-Mix  
This mode is for rock and popular music. The lively sounds are  
enhanced for a powerful acoustic image that simulates the feeling of  
being in a club or rock concert.  
The DTR-6.4 can play the 5.1-channel sources in THX surround EX  
mode, even if the source is not encoded in Dolby Digital Surround  
EX format. In this case, the sound actually output from the surround  
back channels depends on the source and may not fit your tastes.  
TV Logic  
This mode gives realistic acoustics to TV programs that are aired  
from TV studios. It enhances the entire surround sound and clarity  
of the conversation.

Notes:  
Note:  
Be aware that if you change the input source that you are watching  
(or listening to), the selected source will be recorded.  
You cannot record the surround effects.  
• Digital signals input to the DIGITAL IN jacks will be output to  
the DIGITAL OUT jacks.  
Recording a source different from that you are listening  
to:  
• There are some restrictions on recording digital signals. When  
making digital recordings, consult the instruction manual that  
came with your digital recording equipment (e.g., MD recorder  
or DAT deck) to know what restrictions are imposed.  
The DTR-6.4/5.4 allows you to listen to one source while  
recording the signal from another source. The procedure below  
uses the example of recording the audio from a CD player while  
watching the input from a DVD player.  
You cannot record the source connected to the 5.1-channel input  
jacks.  
1. While playing the DVD, press the  
Rec Out button.  
• If you change the input source during recording, you will record  
the signals from the newly selected input source.  
• Digital input signals are only output to the digital outputs and  
analog input signals are only output to the analog outputs. There  
is no conversion from digital to analog or vice versa. When  
connecting CD players and other digital components, do not  
connect only the digital terminals, but the analog ones as well.  
2. Within 3 seconds, press the input source button of  
the source that you wish to record.  
In this example you would press the CD source button. The  
signal from the CD player is now output to the TAPE OUT  
jacks.  
Recording the input source (Rec Out selector)  
When using the DTR-6.4/5.4 to record a source, you must select  
that source to be output from the TAPE OUT jacks.  
Recording the same source that you are listening to:  
1. Press the input source button for the source that you  
want to record.  
3. Start recording at the recording device connected to  
the TAPE OUT jacks.  
You can press the Rec Out button to display which input source  
is selected for recording. When “Rec Sel: Off” is displayed, no  
signal is output for recording.  
To confirm the settings, press the Rec Out button. The current  
settings will appear for 3 seconds in the front display.  
2. Press the Rec Out button repeatedly  
until “Rec Sel : SOURCE” appears in  
the front display.  
To turn off the Rec Out, press the Rec Out button and then press  
the Off button within five seconds.  
Notes:  
You cannot use the Rec Out selector to record video signals.  
• Be aware that the Zone 2 and Rec Out selectors use the same  
circuit and therefore cannot be used at the same time.  
3. Start recording at the recording device connected to  
the TAPE OUT jacks.  
• Even if you change the input source that you are listening to, the  
input source that is selected for recording will not change.  
However, if you have selected FM (or AM) as the source to be  
recorded and the AM (or FM) source button is pressed, the  
source being recorded will be changed to the AM (or FM) input  
signal.

Recording  
Recording both the audio and video  
The DTR-6.4/5.4 also allows you to record the audio and video  
signals output from the VIDEO OUT 1 and 2 jacks.  
1. Press the input source button for the source you want  
to record.  
2. Start recording at the recording device connected to  
the VIDEO OUT 1 and 2 jacks.  
Note:  
Be aware that if you change the input source that you are watching  
(or listening to), the selected source will be recorded.  
Hint  
You can also record the video from one source and the audio from  
another source together to make your own home movies and the  
like. For example, if you want to record the video from a video  
camera connected to Video 4 and the audio from a CD player  
connected to CD IN, at step 1 above, press the Video 4 source  
button and then the CD source button.

(4) Repeat steps (2) and (3) above for the front right and other  
speakers until all speakers are adjusted to the same volume  
level.  
Calibrating the speaker levels  
Use this menu to set the volume for each speaker so that each  
volume is heard by the listener at the same level. This is especially  
important for speaker layouts where the left and right speakers are  
at different distances or in asymmetrical positions due to room  
designs and configurations. These settings and the distance settings  
performed in the Speaker Distance menu are vital to create the  
proper sound space and dynamics.  
Notes:  
• Speakers that you selected “No” or “None” for in the “Speaker  
Config” menu will be disabled.  
• To accurately set the output levels, it is recommended to use a  
handheld sound pressure level (SPL) meter. Set the meter to C-

designs and configurations. These settings and the distance settings  
performed in the Speaker Distance menu are vital to create the  
proper sound space and dynamics.

When switching input sources, you may find that the output level  
for different components or input sources connected to the DTR-

Center Image is the factor controlling the amount of subtraction. It  
varies between 0 and 5 in steps of 1 and the default value is 3.  
When Center Image=5, the factor is zero and nothing is subtracted  
from the left and right channels. When Center Image=0, the center  
channel is subtracted from the left and right channels at half level  
(–6 dB) for each channel. The signal level sent to the center channel  
output is not affected by Center Image.  
Setting available when you play mono, 2-channel  
or 96 kHz format signal  
Double Bass  
The Double Bass function boosts the bass sound by letting the bass  
sound of “Front L/R” speakers output also from the subwoofer. To  
enable this function, in the “Speaker Config” menu, set the  
“Subwoofer” to “Yes” and “Front L/R” to “Large.”  
This control should be set based on room layout and personal  
preferences. A setting of 5 allows the left and right channels to pass  
through unaltered from the stereo mix. A setting of 0 gives more  
center channel dominance, which is particularly desirable if  
listeners are located well off-center. At any setting, the center  
speaker anchors the image.  
Note:  
Double Bass “Off” is the THX preferred setting for accurate bass  
reproduction.

Use this setting to extend the front stereo image to include the

imaging.  
Late Night  
The audio for movies made for the cinema have a large dynamic  
range; thus, the difference between loud noises and soft noises is  
great. To hear the quieter sounds such as background noises or  
human conversations, the movie must be played back at larger  
volumes. When this setting is set to “High” or “Low,” the dynamic  
range of the sound is narrowed down to allow you to easily hear  
minute sounds at low volumes. This function is especially useful if  
you wish to play a movie at low volumes during the nighttime.  
On: Select to turn on the PL II Music Panorama mode.  
Off: Select to turn off the PL II Music Panorama mode.  
Pro Logic II Music Dimension (Dimension)  
Use this setting to gradually adjust the soundfield forward or  
backward. The setting of “3” is the normal position. Change the  
setting to “2” or lower to move the sound space forward setting to  
“4” or higher to move the sound space backward.  
This can be set to either “Off” or “Low,” or “High.” When this  
setting is set to “High” or “Low,” the dynamic range of the sound is  
narrowed down to allow you to easily hear minute sounds at low  
volume.  
If the stereo recording has excessive broadness or too strong  
surroundness, move the sound space forward to get the appropriate  
sound balance. In contrast, if the stereo recording is somewhat felt  
like monaural or has narrowness, move the sound space backward  
to get more surroundness.  
Off: Select to turn off the Late Night function.  
Low: Select to narrow down the dynamic range.  
High: Select to further narrow down the dynamic range.  
Pro Logic II Music Center Width (Center Width)  
Note:  
In Pro Logic II decoding, center signals are output from the center  
speaker. When the center speaker is not used, the decoder will  
divide the center signal equally to both the front left and right  
speakers to create a “phantom” center sound image.  
The depth of the Late Night effect is determined by Dolby Digital  
software. With some sources, it may produce little or no effect.  
Setting available when you play Dolby Digital or  
DTS format signal  
The Pro Logic II Music Center Width mode allows you to adjust from  
where the center sound image is heard. Using this, you can have the  
soundfield be heard from the center speaker only, from the front left  
and right speakers only (as a phantom center sound image), or from  
all three speakers (center, front left and right) in various level  
combinations. For home use, applying some width to the center  
signal will improve the level balance for the center and main  
speakers, and effect the width of the center sound image, or “weight”  
of the sound. Many sound recordings processed for stereo playback  
will be reproduced better by proper control of this setting. The  
recommended setting for Pro Logic II Music mode is “3.” This allows  
you to easily distinguish the Pro Logic II Music mode from the Pro  
Logic II Movie mode whose setting is automatically set to “0.”  
LFE Level (DTR-6.4 only)  
The level can be adjusted to either –or between –10 and 0  
decibels in 1-decibel increments. For Dolby Digital and DTS input  
source signals, the LFE level set here is used. A setting of 0 decibels  
is recommended for optimum performance; however, if the source  
is recorded with the low frequency range too strong, lower this  
setting as necessary.  
Settings available when you set “DTS Neo:6” for  
your listening mode  
Settings available when you set an Integra-specific  
surround mode for your listening mode  
Center Image  
DTS Neo:6 derives a center channel from two-channel PCM and  
analog sources.  
Front Effect  
In cinema mode, for Lt/Rt film soundtracks, sounds steered to the  
center are subtracted from the left and right channels.  
In music mode, the intent in the front channels is less one of  
steering and more one of stabilizing the front image by augmenting  
it with a center channel, while preserving the original perspective of  
the stereo mix. Therefore the derived center is never fully subtracted  
from the left and right channels.  
Some live recordings contain acoustic reverberation. When you  
play these sources, more reverberation will be applied by the DSP,  
creating too much reverb effects and the sound loses frame or  
presence. In this case, set this setting to “Off” so that no  
reverberation from the DSP will be applied to the sound output  
from the three front channels. With this setting, the sound source is  
played as it is without any further reverberation.

Reverb Level  
speaker levels and speaker distances among the front right, front  
left, and center speakers are matched. In order to ensure this, make  
sure that the settings in the Speaker Distance Sub-menu and Level  
Calibration sub-menu are set correctly.)  
This setting allows you to adjust the depth of acoustic reverberation  
to match the playback source material, the acoustics of your room,  
and such other factors.  
Select from the three settings “Low,” “Mid,” and “High.”  
On: Select to have the center channel signal output to the center  
speaker.  
Reverb Time  
Off: Select to have the center channel signal output to the front  
left and right speakers (Phantom Center).  
Adjust the reverb time to match the source being played back and  
the acoustics of the room. Select from the three settings “Short,”  
“Mid,” and “Long.”  
Front Expander  
The front expander function spreads out the stereo image in front of  
the listener. The created stereo image is as if the front speakers have  
been farther apart for the feeling of a wide sound space. This is  
especially useful for narrow listening angles of 20 degrees or less.  
Settings available when you play monaural signal  
On: Select to turn on the front expander function to simulate a  
wider sound space.  
Academy Filter (DTR-6.4 only)  
Older monaural film mixes relied on high-frequency rolloff in  
presentation to sound properly balanced, so that excessive hiss from  
the grain structure of the film would not be heard. The high-  
frequency loss was typically due to a combination of optical slit  
loss, electrical filters, loudspeaker response, and screen loss. Some  
films have been transferred to video without such a high-frequency  
rolloff, and thus sound overly bright and hissy.  
The DTR-6.4 includes this “Academy filter,” which is based on  
contemporary playback practices for such films over wide-range  
systems.  
Off: Select to turn off the front expander function for a normal  
sound space.  
Virtual Surr Level  
This setting adjusts the level of the virtual surround signal. This can  
be set from –3 to +3 decibels. Lowering this setting can improve the  
sound when the definition is unclear or when the sound feels  
unnatural.  
Dialog Enhance  
This can be set to either “On” or “Off.”  
If the dialog from the center channel is difficult to hear in the  
Theater-Dimensional mode, use this setting to improve the clarity.  
Input Channel  
This allows you to set the way in which the stereo audio signal is  
output in the “Mono” listening mode.  
On: Select to enhance the vocal ranges of the center channel  
signal.  
Auto L+R: Select this under normal circumstances. When the  
input source is center channel, this center channel is used as the  
monaural sound input channel. Otherwise, the left and right  
channels are mixed and the mixed signal is used as the  
monaural sound input channel.  
Off: Select to output the center channel signal at the regular  
level and frequency characteristics.  
Left/Right: You will need to select either left or right when  
playing a video source that contains bilingual data. In such a case,  
the left and right channels will contain the audio for different  
languages. Select the channel with the language you desire.  
Settings available when you setTheater-Dimensional”  
for your listening mode  
Listening angle  
The listening angle is the angle subtended by the front left and right  
speakers as seen from the listener. The processing for the virtual  
surround will be based on this angle. In the Theater-Dimensional  
mode, the setting of 20 and 40 degrees are only for nominal  
purposes, so select the setting that is closest to your actual listening  
angle.  
Front left speaker

Center  
If the speaker system has a center speaker, the center channel signal  
can be output from the center speaker. For instance, in systems  
where the front left and right speakers are small, use of the center  
speaker may provide a better sound space and reduce the load on  
the front speaker. (For the proper soundfield, it is important that the

Using remote controller  
Overview  
The RC-534M/517M remote controller is a useful tool that can not  
only operate the DTR-6.4/5.4, but also all the other components of  
your home theater as well. To operate any component, first press the  
Mode button on the remote controller that corresponds to the  
component that you wish to control. Then simply press the desired  
operation button and the component will operate accordingly. For  
example, if you wish to select the CD input source at the DTR-6.4/  
5.4 with the remote controller, first press the RCVR Mode button to  
select the DTR-6.4/5.4 and then press the CD (Input Selector)  
button.

manufacturer. Another is the normal learning function that enables  
the remote controller to learn the codes directly from other remote  
controllers (see page 70). And the last is a macro learning function  
that enables you to program a series of operations into the remote  
controller so that the operations can all be performed at once by  
pressing one button.  
By entering a pre-programming code, you can have the RC-534M/  
517M remote controller operate a component made by another  
manufacturer. The buttons that are used for operation are given on  
the next page.  
1. Find the 3-digit number listed for the manufacturer

U T I N G  
the RC-534M/517M remote controller, you must first decide under  
T O N E

component you are programming. For example, if you are  
programming the functions from a remote controller for a compact  
disc player, you would choose the CD Mode button. Then, by  
pressing the CD Mode button, the buttons on the RC-534M/517M  
remote controller will change to the commands you program here to  
operate the compact disc player.

After programming which Mode button to use, you will then  
transfer the separate commands from the other remote controller  
over to the RC-534M/517M remote controller one at a time. Each  
command is then programmed to a different button on the RC-  
534M/517M remote controller. Any button is programmable for this  
step except for the eight Mode buttons (RCVR, CD, DVD, SAT/  
MD, TV, VCR, and Cable), the two Macro buttons (1 and 2), and  
the Light button (RC-534M only).  
2 to 6 inches  
(5 to 15 cm)  
Even after the commands have been memorized, keep your old  
remote controller in a safe place. If for some reason the commands  
are lost (e.g., when the batteries run down), it will be necessary to  
memorize them once again.  
1. Place the remote controller and the remote controller  
for the other device facing each other at a distance of  
2 to 6 inches (5 to 15 cm) apart.  
2. While pressing and holding down the desired Mode  
button on the remote controller, press the ENTER  
button and then release both buttons.  
The Send/Learn indicator lights when the Mode button is  
pressed and turns off when the ENTER button is pressed. When  
the indicator turns off, release both buttons. The Send/Learn  
indicator lights again.

3. Press and release the button on the remote controller  
to which you want to transfer the next command.  
You may select any button excluding the eleven ones indicated  
in the figure below. When you press the button, the Send/Learn  
indicator turns off. When you release the button, the indicator  
lights again.

Programming the commands of remote controllers for other devices into the remote  
controller  
4. Press and hold down the button (that corresponds to  
Erasing the programmed command from one  
button  
the command you are programming) on the remote  
controller of the other device until the Send/Learn  
lamp on the remote controller ashes twice.  
You can only erase memorized commands and not preset ones.  
After flashing twice, the Send/Learn indicator will light again.  
1. Press and hold down the Mode button for the  
command, press the ENTER button, and then release  
both buttons.  
5. Repeat Steps 3 and 4 to transfer all the commands  
you desire from the other remote controller and  
program them to buttons on the remote controller  
under the same Mode.  
When you press the Mode button, the Send/Learn indicator  
lights. When you press the ENTER button, the lamp turns off.  
When you release the buttons, the lamp lights again.  
Repeat Steps 2 through 4 to program commands to a different Mode  
(e.g., when programming from a different remote controller).  
2. Press and release the button for the command you  
wish to erase.  
6. Press the Mode button that you pressed in step 2 to  
complete the programming.  
When you press the button, the Send/Learn indicator turns off.  
When you release the button, the lamp lights again.  
7. Operate the newly programmed buttons to make sure  
the learning function was performed properly.  
3. Press and release the same button again.  
Notes:  
The Send/Learn lamp slowly flashes twice. The memorized  
command is erased.  
• The remote controller codes for Integra/Onkyo compact disc  
players, cassette tape decks, DVD players, and mini disc  
recorder have already been programmed into buttons on the  
remote controller. You may, however, use these buttons to  
program the codes for other remote controllers. If you wish to  
restore the Integra preset codes after you program new codes,  
you must first erase the new codes.  
Note:  
If the Send/Learn indicator quickly flashes three times and turns off,  
then the remote controller has exited the erasing mode because  
either you have made a mistake during erasing or a time-out has  
occurred because no button has been pressed. Resume from Step 1.  
• The remote controller has 357 memory slots (7 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.  
Erasing all the commands programmed under a  
Mode button  
• If the Send/Learn indicator quickly flashes three times and turns  
off, then the remote controller has exited the programming  
mode because either you have made a mistake during  
programming or a time-out has occurred because no button has  
been pressed. Resume from Step 2.  
1. Press and hold down the desired Mode button, press  
the ENTER button twice, and then release both  
buttons.  
When you press the Mode button, the Send/Learn indicator  
lights. When you press the ENTER button, the lamp turns off.  
When you release the buttons, the lamp slowly flashes twice and  
then lights again.  
• 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.  
2. Press and release the same Mode button again.  
• 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 the previous programming for that  
button will be overwritten.  
When you release the button, the Send/Learn indicator slowly  
flashes twice. This erases all the commands memorized to the  
Mode button.  
• 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 systems that are quite  
different from the remote controller and therefore may not be  
able to be programmed.  
Notes:  
• If the Send/Learn indicator quickly flashes three times and turns  
off, then the remote controller has exited the erasing mode  
because either you have made a mistake during erasing or a  
time-out has occurred because no button has been pressed.  
Resume from Step 1.  
• 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.  
• If many commands have been programmed to the Mode button,  
then the Send/Learn indicator may remain lit for up to 20  
seconds during Step 2. This is not a malfunction.  
• 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.

Using the macro function  
What is the macro function?  
Programming the macro  
A macro function enables you to program a series of button  
operations (up to 16) on the remote controller into a single button.  
The series of operations are then called a macro. For example, to  
play a compact disc player connected to the DTR-6.4/5.4 normally,  
you must perform the following steps:  
With the macro function, you can program a series of button  
operations as a macro into the Macro button so the macro can be  
executed with just one touch. Note that for the macro function, only  
one macro can be programmed. For example, to program the macro  
described above on this page for the Macro button, perform the  
steps given below.  
1. Press the RCVR Mode button.  
2. Press the On button.  
1. Press and hold down any one of the seven Mode  
buttons, press the Macro 1 (or 2) button, and then  
release both buttons.  
3. Press the CD (Input Selector) button.  
4. Press the CD Mode button.  
5. Press the playback ( ) button.  
When you press the Mode button, it lights and the Send/Learn  
indicator lights. When you press the Macro 1 (or 2) button, the  
indicator turns off. When you release the buttons, the indicator  
flashes briefly and then lights again.  
By using the macro function, you can perform the above five  
operations by only pressing one button.  
2. Press the operation buttons you wish to program in  
order (in this case, press RCVR Mode On CD  
(Input Selector) CD Mode playback ( ) button).  
When you press each button, the Send/Learn indicator turns off.  
When you release the button, the indicator lights.

Point the remote controller at the DTR-6.4/5.4 and press  
the Macro 1 (or 2) button.  
It may take a while for the macro to finish transmitting, so be sure to  
continue pointing the remote controller at the device until the Send/  
Learn indicator turns off.  
Tips:  
• If you erase or change the command of a button programmed in  
the macro, that operation of that button will no longer work in  
the macro. In this case, it will be necessary for you to reprogram  
the macro in order to avoid incorrect operation.  
• The codes programmed into the macro will be transmitted at an  
interval of 0.5 seconds. However, some devices may not be able  
to complete one operation in 0.5 seconds and may miss the next  
code. In this case, after pressing one operation button, you can  
press the same Mode button again before pressing the next  
operation button to add another 0.5 seconds between the two  
operations.

Troubleshooting guide  
If one of the messages shown below appears  
“Not available with headphones use”  
Operation not allowed because headphones are plugged into the  
DTR-6.4/5.4.  
“Not available with Multichannel use”  
Operation not allowed while the multi-channel output is being used.  
“Not available in this Sp Config”  
Will not work with the current speaker configuration settings.  
“Not available in Zone 2 mode”  
Setting not allowed because the Zone 2 mode is turned on.  
“Only available with Dolby D”  
No setting other than Dolby Digital can be set.  
“Not available in this Listening mode”  
Will not work with the current listening mode.  
“Not available with this signal”  
The listening mode cannot be selected with the current input source.  
“Not available with Muting”  
Operation not allowed because the muting is activated.  
“Zone 2 is not On”  
Will not work because the Zone 2 has not been turned on.  
Also refer to the respective instruction manuals of the CD player,  
DVD player, video cassette recorder, TV monitor, etc., that  
compose your entertainment system.  
The DTR-6.4/5.4 contains an internal microcomputer that performs  
high-level operations. However, on extremely rare occasions, noise  
or interference from an external source or static electricity may  
cause faulty operation. If this occurs, unplug the power cord from  
the wall outlet, wait five or more seconds, and then plug it back in.  
This should correct the situation.  
* To reset the surround mode and other settings to the factory  
default settings, hold down the Video 1 button with the DTR-  
6.4/5.4 turned on and then press the Standby/On button.  
“CLEAR” appears in the front display and the DTR-6.4/5.4
