System: The System option allows you to set the following system features:
Front Panel Brightness: This option sets the brightness of the BDS receiver’s information
display.

when using the BDS receiver with a CRT or plasma TV.
Auto Power Off: This option sets the amount of time the BDS receiver remains on while
idle until it automatically enters the Standby mode.
One Touch Play: When this option is set to “On,” pressing the Play button on the BDS
receiver when a Blu-ray Disc or DVD is inserted will automatically turn a connected TV
on and switch it to the input connector where the BDS receiver is connected. NOTE: The
TV must support HDMI CEC (Consumer Electronics Control).
One Touch Standby: When this option is set to “On,” putting a connected TV into the
standby mode will automatically place the BDS receiver into the standby mode. NOTE:
The TV must support HDMI CEC (Consumer Electronics Control).

BDS receiver that you’ve downloaded from a Harman Kardon Web site or other Harman
Kardon source.
Setup Wizard: This option activates the receiver’s Setup Wizard (see Setup Wizard, on
page 15).
BD-Live Storage: When you select the BD-Live features from a disc’s menu, you may be
able to download additional content or other information via the Internet (through the BDS
receiver’s Network connection) and onto a memory device inserted into the receiver’s USB
port. This option lets you see how much space is available on the memory device, and allows
you to delete previously-stored BD-Live content from the device. See BD-Live Interactivity,
on page 22, for details.
Restore Defaults: This option restores the receiver to its factory-default setting values.
Note: This procedure deletes all preset FM stations and restores the parental-control
password back to the factory default of 0000.
Language: This setting lets you set the language for the disc player and the disc menus,
the preferred audio language and the preferred subtitle language.
NOTE: If the selected language is not available on the particular disc being played, use
the disc’s menu to set the language from those available on the disc.
Playback: The Playback option allows you to set the following disc playback features:
Show Angle Icon: This option lets you select whether or not the angle icon will
automatically be displayed when a disc with multiple camera angles is played.
Auto Play: This option lets you select whether discs will automatically begin playing
when they are inserted into the BDS receiver’s disc player.

Icon will automatically be displayed when a Blu-ray Disc recording with secondary audio
content is played.

disc player.

Test Connection: This option tests for a proper network connection to the BDS receiver.
IP Configuration: This option lets you enter your network settings, either automatically
or manually. Unless your network administrator instructs you otherwise, you should use
the Auto option.
BD-Live Connection: This option lets you set the receiver’s BD-Live connection
preferences. “Always Allow” allows downloading of BD-Live content whenever a disc
with BD-Live content is played. “Limit” allows downloading only if the disc is officially
BD-Live certified. “Prohibited” does not allow any BD-Live access.
Proxy Setting: “Enabled” allows you to select and set the proxy host and proxy port if
your network requires a proxy setting. “Disabled” bypasses any Proxy Host and Proxy
Port settings and prevents their selection. This option is for advanced users only and in
most cases should be left set to “Disabled.”
