#1 will go to 0V D .
The Ethernet port is a 10/100 Base Ethernet port, that allows receiving and
sending multicast audio streams when used with a DMS/SNP UR Multi
zone system, and also used for command and control when used with an
MRX-10/MRX-12 (or similar) UR Advanced System ontroller.
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 UR
Accelerator P application).
Any of the optical/coaxial S/PDIF inputs can be assigned to any numbered
video input ( omposite, omponent or HDMI). The optical/coaxial S/PDIF
inputs cannot be assigned to Input Phono or Input Multi ast 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 UR MRF-350
or MRF-260. This port provides the ability to perform simple one-way control of
the DMS-AV with a UR 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 UR Advanced System ontroller.
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
Y b r
Blu-ray Disc and HD DVD Video and Audio at Full Resolutionn
onsumer Electronic ontrol ( E )
Deep olor

5. Main AC Rocker Style Switch - Provided is a Main A Rocker Switch. This
switch is sometimes known as a “Vacation” switch, and is used to remove main
A from the DMS-AV, or perform a hard reboot of the unit.
6. Composite Video Inputs - The DMS-AV supports four composite video R A
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. omposite 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 R A 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 UR Accelerator Application, set your DMS-
AV 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 pre-
amplifier 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 A power cord
to the unit.

Quick Start Considerations
Your UR 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 A power cords unplugged from their designated A outlet.
2. From each source device, connect the A/V cables which could include
composite, component, or HDMI cables.
3. onnect the speaker cables from the receiver’s speaker outputs to the
appropriate speakers.
4. onnect the appropriate video cables from the receiver’s video outputs to
the video monitor’s input(s).
5. onnect an Ethernet cable from the DMS-AV to local network router.
6. Plug the A power cords for the DMS-AV and all connected sources into
their designated A 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.

The rest of this manual will give further insight into the many aspects of your
new receiver. Some additional installation considerations should be noted as
follows:
• It is important that your electronic equipment be located where there is
proper ventilation. Failure to ventilate your receiver could result in erratic
operation and possible failure caused by overheating. A minimum of 0.3m
should be maintained above the receiver. Do not place items directly on top
of the receiver. Do not place flammable items on, around or near the A/V
equipment (curtains, paper, etc.).
• UR provides a software program, UR Accelerator, that aids in the setup
process of the DMS-AV. ontact your UR Representative to acquire this P
Application. UR Accelerator is easy to use and is intended to simplify the
setup process of your new UR Network Home Theater Processor and all
user interfaces.
• onfigure a system diagram of all components that are to be connected into
the system. The receiver has a total of eleven Audio and Video inputs, and 1
Phono input. The back panel is labeled I 1, I 2, I 3, I 4, I 5, I 6,
Phono, I 7, I 8, I 9, I 10, I 11 for component video /analog audio
sources, Phono for the phono source, and HDMI sources.
The optical digital and coax digital inputs are labeled I A, I B, I C and
I D respectively, and can be assigned to any of the composite, component
and HDMI Video inputs. By default, the optical and coax digital inputs are not
assigned to any video input. Use the on-screen display or the UR Accelerator
application to assign an optical or coax digital input to any video input.
The source names by default are set to I 1, I 2, I 3 etc...The inputs may be
renamed in the on-screen display, or in the UR Accelerator application to
reflect the desired source name. For example, the name I 9 may be changed
to “Blu-Ray. The renamed source input name will appear on the DMS-AV’s OSD
(on-screen display).

• Determine the type of cable that is needed for each connection. Keep in
mind that the quality of the cabling that is used may make a difference in the
overall audio and video quality. Try to keep interconnecting cable runs as
short as possible. When routing cables between equipment, be sure to keep
A cables separate from audio cables. It is a good idea to bundle like cables
together to keep interference (noise) to a minimum.
• It is a good idea to label each cable with a name or number at both ends,
when allocating each cable. Have all the cables you need before you begin
the installation because it is inconvenient to run to the store when you are
excited to hear what the system will sound like.
• Plan enough cable length and space to allow future access to the back panel.
• For best performance it is recommended that a dedicated A power line or
supply be used. If the equipment is installed in a rack, be sure to insulate the
equipment from the rack itself.

Video Inputs - Hardware Connections
Vid o Input Conn ction – HDMI
The UR surround processor provides 5 HDMI A/V inputs. While HDMI
carries both audio and video, UR allows options to process audio and
video separately (please see the menu setup for further options). To connect
an HDMI video source to the UR DMS AV, connect the HDMI cable to
the HDMI output on the source. Then connect the other end of the cable
into the corresponding HDMI input on the processor. Shown below is an
HDMI output on the source going into I 9 on the DMS-AV.
Vid o Input Conn ction - Compon nt Vid o
The DMS-AV provides two sets of
component video inputs. Each
component inputcorresponds to a
set of stereo analoginputs, labeled
with the same input number.
Optical digital inputs and coax
digital inputs are available to be
assignedto either of the
component video inputs. For
example, component video I 5
could have it’s audio reassigned
to optical digital I A. Shown is a
component video source
connected to I 5 on the DMS-AV.
Vid o Input Conn ction - Composit Vid o
The DMS-AV provides four composite video inputs. Each composite input
corresponds to a set of stereo analog inputs, labeled with the same input
number. These inputs may be used to up-convert a composite video signal to
the HDMI output. onnect the composite video output on the source using an
R A cable to the yellow colored input on the DMS-AV. Shown below is a
composite video source with an R A
connection going into the yellow R A
input of I 1.
