17. AC Line Fuse
Always unplug the linecord
from the AC Mains before
checking or changing the
fuse. If this fuse blows, you
must replace it with a fuse of
exactly the same size and current
rating.
18. Power Switch
If this is switched off, the TGR-401
will be off, and cannot be turned
on even with the front panel
power switch, the remote control,
or optional Olé-2SF touchpads.
In normal operation, leave this
switch on. Turn it off if you will not
be using the TGR-401 for extended periods.
15. Trigger Outputs
These allow the TGR-401 to control the turn-on of other trigger-enabled equipment in your system.
16. IEC Linecord Socket
These wall-mounted touchpads
connect to TP1 or TP2 using standard CAT-5 cable.
Please contact your Sunfire
dealer for more information. Use
only touchpads that are recommended by Sunfire.
The TGR-401 comes with a
detachable linecord that connects
here.
Plug the linecord into an AC
wall socket or power strip that
is correctly configured with
the voltage specified for your
model.

CHAPTER 1
Installation
Observe the following precautions
when choosing a location for your
TGR-401:
Make sure the TGR-401 has
good ventilation. Do not cover
any of the ventilation slots, or
fit the receiver inside a sealed
cabinet without good air flow.
• Protect it from prolonged exposure
to direct sunlight and other direct
sources of heat, such as heating
vents and radiators.
• Do not expose the unit to rain or
moisture. If fluid or a foreign object
should enter the unit, immediately
turn off the power and contact your
Sunfire Dealer.
• Avoid excessive exposure to extreme cold or dust.
• Do not place heavy objects on top
of the unit.
AC Power Considerations
Ensure that the unit is plugged into
an outlet capable of supplying the correct voltage specified for your model.
Care
If you need to clean the front surface, first turn off the power and then
use a soft dry cloth, rubbing with the
grain. Be careful not to scratch the
display window.

Connection Tips
Video Connections
Before setting up your new system,
please consider the following :
The TGR-401 has four types of
video connections: composite video,
S-video, component video and HDMI.
Choose component or S-video if your
video system supports it, as this will
give better picture quality than composite video.
Always make sure that your
components are all turned
OFF, or unplugged before
making or changing any
connec­tions.
• Whenever possible, route the
power cords away from the signal
cables or speaker wires to prevent
any hum or interference heard in
the speakers.
• Choose reliable hookup cables.
They should be fully shielded and
as short as possible.
When an audio/video component
is selected, the audio will play in your
system and the video will be switched
to a video input of your TV monitor.
You must have the TV connected
in order to see the On Screen Display
(OSD). No OSD is available on HDMI.
• Use quality coaxial digital cables
to connect the TGR-401 to any
source equipment which has coaxial digital outputs.
• Some patch cords can be a very
tight fit and there is usually a
preferred method of getting them
off. Some have to be removed
with a twisting action. Be gentle or
you may damage the jacks of your
TGR-401, or other components.
• Some audiophile cables should be
hooked up in one direction, these
are usually marked with arrows.
• It is usual for the right channel
patch cord plugs to be red and
the left channel connections to be
white, grey or black. Composite
video connections are usually yellow.

and the video is sent to the TV.
As with all the video connections
that follow, you must make sure that
your TV monitor is set to look at its
correct video input or you will not see
the picture.
If your TV and other video components have S-Video connections, use
them, as they provide better picture
quality than composite video.

Note: The eight channels of audio
from the DVD are all processed by the
TGR-401 DSP, so bass management
and surround mode selections will
still be functional. Additionally there
is an 8-channel source direct mode.
This provides the highest fidelity
signal path for SACD or DVD-Audio,
free from any coloration or processor
circuitry.
The video output in this example is
connected to TGR-401 HDMI input 1.
Use the OSD 8-CH input configuration
menu to lock the 8-channel input to
HDMI video (see page 33 for details
of the OSD input menu). Then, whenever the 8-channel input is selected,
the HDMI video will also be selected.
The 8-CH input processes all 8
channels only for the Main Zone.
Zone 2 only receives the left and right
channels.

If you are using banana plugs,
make sure the TGR-401 output posts are fully tightened
by hand.
In this menu, you can also choose
if two amplifier channels power a
second set of left/right speakers, or
a second set of surround speakers.
This allows you to connect two sets of
front left/right speakers, and quickly
switch between them for home theater
or stereo use. Or you could connect
two sets of surround speakers and
quickly switch between them, or run
both pairs, depending on your source
and mode.
Always turn off the TGR-401
when you make speaker connections.
It is very important to check
that the negative and positive
speaker wires do not touch.
This will prevent damage to
the TGR-401's internal amplifiers.
Line-Level Outputs
The line-level audio outputs can be
connected to external power amplifiers and powered subwoofers. For
example, you could use an external
amplifier to power Zone 2 speakers,
and use the internal amplifiers to
power the surround back speakers.

2.Sit in a position in front of your
equipment, and make sure that all
components are turned off.
3.In the SETUP mode, press P-PRO
and the device labels will appear.
4.Select the device button you want
to program, then choose the device table you took the code from.
For example, for a TV, press TV
twice. If you want AUX to control a
VCR, press AUX, then press VCR.
5.You can now enter a code using the remote’s keypad, or UP
or DOWN. After the third digit is
entered, the remote transmits a
power command. If the component turns on, press SAVE and
then EXIT. Go to step 7.
User's Manual
6.If you could not find a code which
works, hold the UP button to step
through all the codes in the table
for that device. Release UP when
your equipment turns on. If you go
past, press DOWN. Press SAVE
and then EXIT.
7.The display will change to show
the devices again, still in the
P-PRO mode. Repeat steps 4 to 7
until all your equipment is working.
8.Press MAIN to return to the main
menu from any setup mode.
9.Test the remote to see which
buttons will operate your equipment. For example, if you were
trying to control your TV, check
the power, channel up and down,
and volume up and down. If some
of these buttons are not working
correctly, choose another code for
that manufacturer, or you can learn
over those not working by using
the LEARN mode.
NOTE: If you accidently "learn
over" one or more of the buttons which operate the TGR401, fear not. You can use ERASE
(see next page) to reset either the
individual buttons, or the whole
TGR-401 bank. After erasing, the
buttons will revert to their TGR-401
programming.
FAV
This mode allows you to enter your
favorite TV and radio stations.
Note that the following procedure
assumes you have already programmed your remote to operate your
TV, radio tuner and other equipment.
The keypad must already be able to
select channels on your TV or SAT,
and any TGR-401 tuner presets.
You can also delete the labels from
unused buttons, or move all your most
favorite FAV labels to page 1.
1.In the SETUP mode, select FAV.
2.The FAV display will appear, and
you can step through five pages
using PAGE or FAV to locate the
favorite station ID, such as HBO or
CBS for example.
3.Select the device, such as
SAT, TV or TGR-401, to learn station commands from.
4.Use the keypad to enter the channel number. For channels below
10, you should enter a 0 (zero)
first. If your equipment needs it,
you may have to enter the ENT
button after the channel is entered.
If you want to add a short delay,
press PAUSE (II).
5.When you have finished with one
channel, press the CH UP (molded
button) to save it. Move on to the
next favorite channel and program
it in the same way. Repeat this
for all the channels and devices.
Press MAIN to return to the top
menu.
6.Now, if you press the molded FAV
button, the favorite channels appear in the display, and the ones
you programmed will take you to
your favorite channel or radio station.
7.The commands are sent in sequence, for example for channel
13, first the 1 and then the 3 are
sent. Wait a few seconds before
switching between favorites, or
your TV may receive for example,
the 1 of one button and the 2 of the
next.
Before using FAV mode, you can
use the EDIT mode to change the
labels in the FAV display to show your
favorite station call signs or reminders.

CHAPTER 3
Remote Setup continued
PUNCH
ERASE
This mode allows you to set up the
volume, channel up/down and transport buttons so they will work for your
main devices, no matter which device
the remote is set for. For example, the
volume buttons can operate the TV,
even if the remote is set to VCR. The
channel buttons can operate the VCR,
even if the remote is set to TV.
Use this mode to erase commands
stored in the remote. This does not
affect the labels, just the stored IR
commands. The pre-programmed
commands for the TGR-401 will not
be lost, as they can be recalled.
1.In SETUP, select PUNCH and the
display changes to show VOL,
CH, PLAY, MENU, and POWER.
The MENU selection will make the
eight transport buttons around the
navigation pad punch through.
2.Select one of these buttons, for
example VOL.
3.Press a device button for the
device you want the Volume commands to appear in (punch TO).
4.Press a device button for the device you want to learn from (punch
FROM). These settings are saved.
5.Repeat steps 2 to 4 until you have
punched to all devices you want.
6. Use MAIN to return to SETUP.
NOTE: To erase Punch commands
from a device and so return buttons to their previous programming: Repeat steps 1 and 2, then
press the device button twice. Repeat for other devices, then press
MAIN to return to SETUP.
The operation of the optional
VIA!migo iPod dock relies on the
navigation buttons when the remote
is set to operate the MP3. Therefore,
it is best that you do not punch-to
the MP3. Also, do not punch-to the
TG401, in case you program over the
navigation buttons used with the OSD
menus and the SIRIUS tuner operation.
28
1.In the SETUP mode, select
ERASE and the display will show
LEARN, FAV, MACRO and EXIT.
2.If you select LEARN, press ALL
to erase all learned buttons, or
KEY to erase one device at a time,
or DEVIC. If you use KEY, press
MAIN and EXIT when you have
erased all the devices you want.
3.If you select FAV, press ALL to
erase all favorites, or KEY to erase
single favorites. Note that the
labels are not erased.
4.If you select MACRO, press ALL to
erase all macros, or KEY to erase
macros, one device at a time.
5.Press EXIT to return to the SETUP
menu, and press MAIN to return to
the main device menu.
LIGHT
This mode allows you to either disable the light, or change the number
of seconds it stays on. (The light is
inactive while in the SETUP mode).
1.In the SETUP menu, select LIGHT
and the display will show ON, time
in seconds, SAVE and EXIT.
2. If you press ON, it changes to OFF
and disables the light. This is useful if you want to save battery life,
or if the kids like to use the remote
as a flashlight or Light Saber®.
3.Use the keypad to enter the number of seconds you want the light
to stay on. If you enter 00, it only
stays on while the light button is
held down.
4.Select SAVE, or press EXIT to
make no change. Either of these
will return you to the SETUP menu.
LEARN
The remote can learn commands
from other remote controls. This is
useful if the pre-programmed commands do not operate some of your
equipment, or certain buttons do not
work, or you want to customize key
functions.
NOTE: PAGE, MAIN, and FAV cannot be learned over.
1.Find your original remote and
make sure it has good batteries,
and it operates your equipment
perfectly. In the following example,
the Sunfire remote will learn the
PLAY command from a DVD remote.
2.Point the DVD remote into the Red
IR top window of the Sunfire remote. Place them on a flat surface,
about 1 to 2 inches apart, and
avoid bright lighting or sunlight.
3.In the SETUP mode, press
LEARN.
4.Select the DVD device button and
the display will change to show
some common DVD labels (remember there are two pages).
5.Select the PLAY button just above
the navigation pad. The display will
show “READY.”
6.Press your DVD remote’s PLAY
button. The display will show
“GOOD” if it has been accepted. If
it shows “FAIL,” press PLAY again.
7.Press another button on the
Sunfire remote and repeat the
procedure until all the DVD buttons
you need are learned.
8. Press MAIN once to return to the
LEARN mode, twice for SETUP
and three times for the MAIN
menu.
User's Manual
CHAPTER 3
Remote Setup continued
9.Try out the Sunfire remote and see
if the learned buttons will successfully operate your equipment. You
may find that some commands
cannot be learned, because some
are non-conventional, or too long
or too short.
10. The EDIT command can be used
to change the labels if some of the
standard labels do not correspond
to your original remote buttons.
MACRO
The macro mode allows you to
set up certain buttons to transmit up
to 190 commands in sequence. For
example, a single button press could
turn on all of your home theater equipment, and set the TGR-401 to DVD,
set the TV to channel 3, and set the
DVD to play, make the tea and put the
cat out.
The power ON and OFF buttons
can be programmed as macros. The
ten device buttons can also be programmed, although these will only be
activated if the device button is held
down for a few seconds.
Note that the macro buttons are independent of which device the remote
is set for. So there is only one power
macro etc.
1.In SETUP mode, press MACRO.
2.Press one of the buttons you wish
to program as a macro, such as
ON, or a device button.
3.Press up to 190 buttons you would
like the macro to store. Do this in
the exact order you want them to
be transmitted. Use the PAGE,
MAIN and direct buttons to find
buttons to use in the macro.
4.To add a delay between steps, you
can add 0.5 seconds each time
you press PAUSE (II). This does
not take up a step. If pause is your
first step, then the macro will not
work unless the button is pressed
and held down.
User's Manual
5.Press the Channel UP button to
save your macro.
6.Repeat this procedure to program
more macros, and press MAIN to
return to the main menu.
7.Try out the macros to see if they
work OK. It may take some time
to transmit all the commands in
sequence, so keep the remote
pointing at your equipment and do
not move it during this time.
RECAL (Recall)
This mode lets you quickly see the
three digit codes you have assigned
to each device. This is useful if you
want to check the tables and find
other codes which may work better.
1.In the SETUP mode, select RECAL. The device labels and their
codes will appear. Press PAGE to
see other codes. Make a note of
the codes.
2.Press MAIN to return to the main
device menu.

2.Press the TEXT button. The list of
devices appears.
3.Navigate to the device and page
where there is a button label you
want to EDIT, selecting between
the FAV, MAIN, DEVICE, then
using the PAGE button. Press
the button you wish to edit. The
first character of your button label
blinks.
4. Change the character using the
number keys. Move to the next
space by pressing the RIGHT navigation button.
5.When finished editing, press the
button you just edited, and the new
text will be saved.
6.You can edit other buttons, or
press MAIN a few times to return
to the main menu.
7.With EDIT, you can also make

a blank device, and add your text.
Then you can use LEARN to add
a remote code from an original
remote.
To edit the name of a device button,
proceed as follows:
1.In the SETUP menu, press EDIT.
2.Press the TEXT button. The list
of devices appears, and EDIT will
appear at the top of the screen. Do
not press a device button just yet.
3.Press the PAGE button twice until
the MAIN appears at the top of the
screen instead of EDIT.
4.Select the device button to be edited and the first character will blink.
(Press PAGE to reach the second
set of devices if required.) Change
the character using the number
keys. Move to the next space by
pressing the RIGHT navigation
button.
5.When finished editing, press the
device button just edited, and the
new name will be saved.
6. To edit the word MAIN, (for example if you are setting up a system

CHAPTER 5
Bass Management
The TGR-401 has a bass management system that allows you to
choose whether your speakers will
play the full frequency range, or if
the bass will be redirected to the
subwoofer.
The advantages of redirecting the
bass to a subwoofer are :
• The overall bass of the system
is improved as subwoofers,
such as Sunfire's powered
True Subwoofers, are specially
designed for this frequency
range.
• The subwoofer can simultaneously play the bass from all
of the speakers, in addition to
its own low frequency effects
channel (LFE).
• There is no loss in perception of the position of movie or
music sound effects, as the ear
cannot easily locate the position of bass sound sources.
• Smaller speakers can be used
for front, center and surrounds, as they do not have to
reproduce the low frequency
range. This leads to a saving
in speaker expense and room
space. Note that a subwoofer
is required if the front speakers
are not set to LARGE.
• The TGR-401 amplifiers do not
waste power reproducing the
low frequency range.

The speaker choices are:
OFF: The speakers are not present.
LARGE: the speakers receive the
full frequency range, and their bass is
not redirected to the subwoofer.
40, 45, 50...150 Hz: The bass
below this frequency is redirected to
the subwoofer. Check your speaker
manuals to find their frequency response, and choose a frequency that
is above the lowest, or choose 90 Hz
as a good starting point.
NOTE: Dolby Digital and DTS
modes are designed especially for
complete systems with front, center, and surround speakers and
subwoofers. You need all of the
speakers to get the best performance
from your Home Theater. If you do not
have a subwoofer connected and you
are using large speakers, then you
should not use the bass management
system (so set all the speakers to
Large). Without a subwoofer, you will
be missing the 5.1 LFE (low frequency
effects) information.
Considering the advantages of
the bass management system, you
might try setting all of your speakers
to 90 Hz (for example), even if they
are capable of good low-frequency
performance.
The TGR-401 has advanced digital
video DSP circuitry and coding which
allows the following:
• Up conversion from composite
video inputs to S-video and
component video outputs.
• Up conversion from S-video
inputs to component video
outputs.
• Down conversion from S-video
inputs to the MON composite
video output jack.
The video conversion makes the
TGR-401 able to switch all of your
video sources, making it the central
controller for all of your audio and
video entertainment.
For example, suppose you have
your TV connected to the component
video outputs of the TGR-401. Any of
your other video sources can be connected to the TGR-401, even those
which do not have component video.
The TGR-401 will convert any composite and S-video sources to component video.
Notes:
• Do not connect both composite and S-video inputs on the
same TGR-401 input. Always
connect the highest quality
video source type.
• The quality of the converted
output is limited by the quality
of the original source.
• The TGR-401 has sophisticated video circuitry that requires
it to be pre-configured for only
one type of television broadcast standard. For US models,
this is NTSC and for export
models, this is PAL-BGIH.

CHAPTER 5
Manual Setup
The following On Screen Display
(OSD) menus are used to enter and
make three main adjustments:
• Speaker Size
• Level Calibration
• Speaker Distance
This setup needs to be done
when you use your system for
the first time, or if you change
anything such as the amplifiers or
speakers, or the speaker position. The calibration is also a good
way to check that your system is
working correctly. These adjustments are made using the OSD
as follows:
1. With the remote control set to
operate the TGR-401, press the
MENU button to bring up the
MAIN Menu of the OSD on your
TV.
2. Use the navigation pad left, right,
up and down buttons to navigate
through the menus in the next
steps.
NOTE: Quit the OSD at any time
by pressing the nearby EXIT button. Any changes will be saved.
There is no need to navigate back
through previous pages, unless
you want to make more changes.
The TGR-401 front panel display
shows the same messages as the
OSD.
3. In the MAIN Menu, select SETUP,
and from there select the SPEAKERS Menu.
4. In the SPEAKERS Menu, select
the SPEAKER SIZE Menu. Use
the navigation pad to set the size
of each speaker to Large, or set to
OFF for those speakers which are
not present. For speakers with the
bass redirected to the subwoofer,
set to 90 Hz. This is a good start-

CHAPTER 5
Automatic Setup Procedure
The automatic setup procedure
uses the microphone to measure
and evaluate your system. After the
measurements are complete, the
levels, crossover frequency, and delay
times of the speakers in your system
are automatically adjusted for the best
performance. Any problems with the
speakers in your system are indicated, for example, if there is no output
from a speaker, or if the polarity is
reversed.
Warning: The test procedure can emit
LOUD test tones through your speakers.
The procedure should be done in
a quiet environment, so only the test
tones will be picked up by the microphone. Use only the microphone
supplied.
1. Place the measurement microphone on the back of your favorite listening couch or chair.
Try to place it at head height if
possible, in the position where
your head normally is while
listening to your home theater.
The microphone should point
straight up towards the ceiling,
so it has an omni-directional
response for highest accuracy.
5. If you accept the results,
the adjustments to the level,
crossover frequency, and delay
are saved and applied to your
system.
2. Connect the microphone to the
Mic input behind the sliding
front panel of the TGR-401.
•If the measurements indicate
that a speaker has reversed
polarity, check the speaker
cable connections and correct this problem. The positive
output of the TGR-401 must
connect to the positive input of
the loudspeaker, and the negative output must connect to the
negative input of the speaker.
3. With the remote control set to
operate the TGR-401, press
the MENU button to enter the
OSD main menu. Use the
remote's navigation buttons to
reach the Auto Setup menu.
The testing procedure will start
when you press the right navigation button.
4. When the measurements are
over, the results are displayed,
and you have the option of
rejecting or accepting them.

• If some of the measurements
are labeled "bad," try moving
the microphone to a new position about six inches away, and
repeat the auto setup.
•For larger rooms, or rooms
with multiple seating positions, it is best to repeat the
measurements several times,
with the microphone in different positions within 6 inches
of each other. Write down the
results of each test, and for the
final test, choose the location
that gives results closest to the
average seen across all locations. This reduces the chance
of choosing a poor location that
happens to be in a room node.

Automatic and Manual Equalization
Auto EQ
The automatic EQ procedure uses
the microphone to measure and
evaluate your system. This takes into
account room effects, and automatically flattens out the response. After
the measurements are complete, the
EQ of your system is adjusted. The
procedure does not use any previously measured information from the auto
setup, or user-entered information.
Warning: The test procedure can emit
LOUD test tones through your speakers.
The procedure should be done in
a quiet environment, so only the test
tones will be picked up by the microphone. Use only the microphone
supplied.
1. Place the measurement microphone on the back of your favorite listening couch or chair.
Try to place it at head height if
possible, in the position where
your head normally is while
listening to your home theater.

2. Connect the microphone to the
Mic input behind the sliding
front panel of the TGR-401.
3. In the EQ menu, select Auto
EQ and the measurements will
begin. The test tones will be
played and the measurements
taken. The procedure takes approximately four minutes. The
EQ of each speaker pair will be
adjusted for the best response.
Auto EQ uses a complex DSP
analysis of your room to create
dynamic EQ filters. Therefore,
detailed results of this process
are not displayed.
Manual EQ adjustment
The EQ of your system can also
be adjusted manually, using your
ears and preferences instead of the
measurement microphone. There is
14 dB of cut and boost available at 11
frequencies, except for the subwoofer.
In the EQ menu, you can select
Manual EQ Global, or Manual EQ
Pairs.
"Manual EQ Global" allows you
to adjust the EQ of the combined
speaker system. Use the menu to
choose the frequencies and make the
adjustments with the remote, to suit
your preference.
"Manual EQ Pairs" allows you to
adjust the EQ of the front pair, center,
surround pair, surround back pair and

We recommend that you try Sonic
Holography when using stereo
sources.
MONO
This mode blends the left to right,
and right to left. You can use it on
noisy tuner sources or old recordings to reduce noise.

In MOVIE mode, Dolby Surround
soundtracks are decoded by the
TGR-401 into separate channels:
left and right channels for offscreen imaging, a center channel
for most on-screen dialog, and
stereo surround channels for ambience and special effects. This is
the mode to use for any surroundencoded material.
GAME mode is an excellent
choice for playing video games
encoded with Dolby Surround or
Dolby Pro Logic II technology. The
bass management is augmented
to fully capture the impact of
special effects panned to the surround channels.
MATRIX mode can be used for
mono sources, or for FM programs with poor stereo reception.
DTS Neo:6
The MUSIC option can expand
normal stereo programs into six
channels. It does so in a natural
sounding way, which enhances
the listening experience.
The CINEMA option can produce
up to six full range, separate
channels and a subwoofer output
from stereo matrix surround
sources. This enhances the playback of sources such as surround
sound video tapes, Laser Discs
and broadcast TV programs.
JAZZ CLUB
In this DSP mode, the surrounds
simulate the ambiance caused
by rear reflections and effects of
a small to medium sized venue.
This is useful for adding surround
sound effects to stereo sources.
The ambiance effect can be varied using the OSD MODES menu.
SOURCE DIRECT
This mode bypasses all DSP,
Tone, and bass management
circuits. It is stereo analog only,
and offers the shortest signal path
through the TGR-401. Only the
front left and right speakers are
engaged. Do not use this mode
for digital-only sources, as it
only routes the analog audio. To
prevent damage to your speakers,
this mode only works if your front
speakers are set to Large.
SONIC HOLOGRAPHY
Sonic Holography works on top of
any 2 channel or multi-channel DSP
mode, enhancing realism and depth.

CHAPTER 5
Surround Modes for Multi-Channel Sources
For multi-channel sources, the
TGR-401 will automatically select the
correct mode from one of the following:
DOLBY DIGITAL
DOLBY DIGITAL EX
DOLBY DIGITAL PLIIX MUSIC
DOLBY DIGITAL PLIIX MOVIE
DTS DIGITAL SURROUND
DTS NEO:6
DTS SUNFIRE
DTS-ES MATRIX

Dolby Digital and DTS are “5.1”
surround systems with five main channels: left front, center, right front, left
surround, and right surround. Each
channel can play the full frequency
range and is independent of the
other channels. The “.1” denotes the
subwoofer channel which plays the
low frequency effects (LFE), also independent of the other channels.
Dolby Digital EX and DTS ES offer
"Extended Surround." Both systems
offer a surround back channel which
effectively fills in the otherwise empty
soundspace behind you.
If you want to try one of the modes
on the previous page, you should select a 2-channel output from your DVD
player's options menu.
DOLBY DIGITAL
DOLBY DIGITAL with PRO LOGIC IIx
This mode is available if the
TGR-401 automatically detects a
Dolby Digital encoded source on
the currently selected input. You
should look for the Dolby Digital
Logo on DVDs, LaserDiscs and
other sources.
Besides Dolby Digital and Dolby
EX, you may change the Mode
to Dolby Pro Logic IIx Music or
Dolby Pro Logic IIx Movie. These
modes create enhanced stereo
surround backs. Listen to each
Mode to find which sounds best.
Many DVDs have the option of
a Dolby Surround, Dolby Digital
or Stereo soundtrack. Follow the
instructions in your DVD player's
manual to output Dolby Digital
bitstreams. Dolby Digital must
often be selected from the Disc's
menu.
Dolby Digital uses a maximum
of 5.1 channels and does not
support surround back channels. Dolby EX supports a mono
surround back channel (or dualmono surround back channels if
both left and right surround backs
are used). Dolby Pro Logic IIx is
not an optional mode when the
surround back channel is configured for only one speaker.
DOLBY DIGITAL EX
Dolby Digital EX mode is primarily
for playback of Dolby Digital Surround EX encoded soundtracks.
One advantage over Dolby Digital
playback is that it fills in the area
behind you with a completely
separate full-range channel.
The TGR-401 has the option of
connecting one or two surround
back speakers. The calibration
and speaker size options can create a seamless surround field.
If you have no surround back
speakers, the extra information
is sent to the standard surrounds
and no material is lost. (Set the
surround back speakers to OFF in
the SPEAKER SIZE menu).
The TGR-401 will also create the
surround back channel if you are
playing a 5.1 source.
Dolby Digital plus Pro Logic IIx
Movie or Music uses the Dolby
Pro Logic IIx decoder to create a
stereo surround back soundfield
from the stereo content of the left
and right surrounds. For example,
Dolby Pro Logic IIx Movie directs
or "steers" some of the left surround signal to the left surround
back, whereas Dolby Pro Logic
IIx Music lets the left surround
remain intact and fills in the left
surround back with additional
material.
Although movies are encoded
with either Dolby Digital or Dolby
EX, many sound even better
when using the Dolby Pro Logic
IIx modes.
NOTE:In your DVD player's audio
setup menu, set the digital output
to BITSTREAM. If this is not set
correctly, the TGR-401 cannot
decode the digital information.
User's Manual
43
CHAPTER 5
DTS DIGITAL SURROUND
This mode is available if the
TGR-401 automatically detects
that a DTS encoded source
is present at one of it’s digital
inputs. Look for the DTS Logo on
DVDs, LaserDiscs, CDs and other
sources.
Make sure that you set your
player to output DTS bitstreams.
DTS must also be selected on the
disc's menu.
NOTE: Besides DTS Digital Surround, you can press the Mode
keys on the remote or use the
Mode selector on the front panel
and play DTS Digital Surround
with Pro Logic IIx Music processing to create stereo surround
back channels. Pressing either
Mode key again will return you to
standard DTS Digital Surround
playback.
DTS-ES MATRIX/DISCRETE
All DTS-ES sources have the
surround back channel matrixed
in the left and right surrounds.
Newer DVD releases also have a
discrete surround back channel, in
addition to the same information
matrixed.
DISCRETE ES sources: the TGR401 DTS-ES discrete decoder
will decode the discrete surround
back channel. It also removes the
surround back matrix from the left
and right surrounds, and restores
them to be fully independent
channels.
DTS NEO:6
This matrixed mode extend DTS
Digital Surround to support surround back channels, similar
to how PLIIX modes work for
Dolby 5.1. The back channels are
derived from the left and right surrounds.
DTS SUNFIRE
This is a special mode that copies
the surround channels into the
back speakers. This provides
a more enveloping experience
for playback of DTS 5.1 digital
sources – especially music and
concert material.
DTS 96/24 modes
The DTS 96/24 modes allow
the decoding of multi-channel,
96 kHz, 24-bit, digital audio. The
various DTS 96/24 modes share
the same features as described
for the standard DTS modes.
DOLBY HEADPHONE
Dolby Headphone technology
enables you to experience the
surround effects of a five-channel, six-channel, or seven-channel
soundtrack through your headphones.
Since headphones directly project
sound into the ear, many of the
spatial cues that exist when using
speakers are lost. This can result
in the audio sounding like it is inside your head, versus surrounding you. Dolby Headphone uses
DSP technology to simulate up to
seven surround speakers around
the virtual room for a much more
enveloping experience.
Dolby Headphone can be turned
on or off in the MODES menu. Try
turning it on for different sources
and listen for the improved sense
of surrounding sound. It will sound
best for multichannel sources, and
can be used to good effect for 2
channel music. Turn it off where
the effect is not required.

CHAPTER 5
Sonic Holography
Sonic Holography is a unique
process which enhances the threedimensional effects and realism of
stereo sound. This is from a design
based on Bob Carver's legendary
(and much sought after) Carver C-9
Sonic Holography Generator.
This circuit was designed to overcome a problem in obtaining accurate
sound reproduction:
To summarize :
1. A real musical event will create
only two direct sound arrivals,
one at the left ear and one at
the right. We can accurately
judge the depth and positioning
of the piano on stage.
stage
In a stereo system, both ears will
hear the output from both speakers.
The left ear hears sound from the left
speaker and from the right speaker.
To see a problem with this, compare
what happens when listening to a live
musical performance:
During a concert, each ear will
receive one direct sound arrival. For
example, both ears will hear the piano
playing, and your brain tells you accurately the position of the musician. In
a stereo recording of the concert, this
piano will be heard from both speakers.
The left ear will hear the left speaker,
which is fine, but the left ear will also
hear the crash from the right speaker.
These extra sounds tend to confuse the
sense of sound source location.
The stereo effect in a good pair of
headphones is enhanced because the
left ear only hears the left headphone,
and the right ear hears only the right
headphone. There are no extra sound
arrivals.
2. Stereo playback will give four
arrivals, as both speakers
are heard by each ear. These
second sound arrivals reduce
our naturally accurate sense of
positioning.
3. Sonic Holography cancels out
the unwanted second arrivals.
The left ear mainly hears the
left speaker and the right ear
mainly hears the right speaker.
The depth and positioning cues
are restored.
Sonic Holography is accomplished
by sending a complex crosstalk signal
from the left and right speakers in
addition to the normal program. These
extra signals are virtually identical to
the unwanted second sound arrivals
but they are out-of-phase with them
and they cancel each other out.
The result is a more three-dimensional and wider soundstage, where
the positioning clues are restored. In
a way, the musicians have been freed
from the confines of the flat plane between the speakers. You will perceive
them as playing forward or playing
behind the speakers or to one side
or the other, not just somewhere in
between. We recommend that you experiment with its effect, remember that
you are listening for a more accurate
sense of the location of the different
musicians.
Because Sonic Holography works
by phase cancellation of the unwanted
second sound arrivals, accurate
speaker positioning is required. Make
sure that the left speaker is the same
distance away from you as the right
speaker. Follow the front speaker
placement on page 46 to get the best
results. This is the same as any standard stereo system, only with more
care taken to position the left and right
speakers accurately.
Sonic Holography is engaged using
the remote control or from the front
panel. There is a short mute period
until the circuit is fully engaged or
disengaged.

Recording to a Tape Player
Input signals from an audio source
playing in the TGR-401 can be recorded using the left and right audio
outputs. The tape player will receive
a straight copy of the analog source
signal going in, unaffected by the
volume, tone or any surround modes.
If you are playing a digital source, the
tape player will receive a downmixed
stereo analog signal for recording.
• Set your tape player to record
and adjust the input levels for
the best performance. Once the
levels are correct, you can reset
your source to the beginning
and make your recording.
• Do not select another Main
Zone input while you are recording.
• Turn OFF the automatic mode.
This is because some tape
decks, such as three-head
decks, will have an output
signal going into the TGR-401
during recording, and this may
be incorrectly selected as an
input, rather than the source
you are trying to record.
• Manually select the source
such as CD and play it through
your system.

Zone 2 Operation
If you have a pair of speakers in a
second room or area (Zone 2), they
can play a stereo source independent
of whatever is playing in the Home
Theater room (Main Zone). You can
also play the same source as selected
in the Main Zone.
The Zone 2 speakers can be powered by two of the TGR-401's internal
amplifiers, if you enable "Powered Z2"
in the Binding Posts menu. The amplifiers that power the surround-back
speakers are switched to play the
Zone 2 speakers instead. An external
power amplifier can be used to power
the Zone 2 speakers.
Zone 2 plays stereo sources, and is
unaffected by the DSP, Sonic Holography, surround modes or bass management.
Turning on Zone 2
Zone 2 OSD menu
With the remote set to operate the
TGR-401, press the ZONE 2 button.

Zone 2 operations will work even if
the Main Zone is off.
Note: Zone 2 can play analog
sources independent of what is playing in the Main Zone. It cannot play
from a digital-only source unless that
input is selected and playing in the
Main Zone. To play a source such as
a DVD player in Zone 2 independent
of the Main Zone, make sure you
connect the player's L-R analog audio
output to the TGR-401.

Speaker Placement
Pair A are bipole surround speakers, pair B and C are conventional surround speakers or surround back options.
The Front Speakers
You should closely follow the
placement recommendations of your
speaker manufacturer, with the addition of the following points:
The left and right front speakers
should be positioned so that your TV
is exactly centered between them.
This will help focus your attention
towards the screen.
For the best performance when using Sonic Holography, the left speaker
should be set exactly the same
distance and angle away from your
listening position as the right speaker.
It is recommended that you use a
tape measure to set them up to be the
same distance away, within about half
an inch tolerance.
50
The Center speaker
If you have a smaller TV, the speakers should be no more than two feet
away from the sides of the TV.
If possible, have the center, left
and right speakers at the same height
(within two feet). This will help give a
smooth transition when sound effects
move from speaker to speaker.
Ideally, the speakers should be no
closer than two feet from the rear and
side walls, in order to reduce any reflections that might upset the imaging.
If your speakers are closer than this,
you can experiment by adding sound
deadening material such as drapes
on the walls to reduce any unwanted
reflections.
Most movie dialog will come from the
center speaker, so careful positioning is
an important part of a good home theater system. Your eyes and ears should
focus your attention towards the center
of the screen.
The center speaker can sit above, or
below the TV monitor, as long as it is
located on the centerline and not off to
one side.
Position the front face of the
speaker close to the front edge of
any TV cabinet. (The sound waves
may otherwise reflect off the top of
the TV cabinet and distort the center
imaging).
User's Manual
APPENDIX
....Speaker Placement continued
In some systems, two center speakers are used; one on either side of the
TV. As they are in mono, the result
is a sound image that is positioned
exactly at the screen center.
Surround Speakers
Place each surround speaker to
be an equal distance away from your
central listening position, and keep
them at least one or two feet above
ear level.
A The diagram on the previous
page shows the use of bipole
or dipole surround speakers.
These are usually positioned to
the side of your listening position.
B and C Conventional surround
speakers can be placed behind
the listener, on the rear walls
or the side walls. Adjust the
angle so they do not point directly at the listener but cause
reflections from the sidewalls
or the ceiling. This will give
the effect of broadening the
rear soundstage so that you
cannot distinguish the sound
as coming from a small box on
the wall but from a larger area
behind you.
LS1/LS2 OPTIONS
Two sets of binding posts and line
out jacks are available for surround
speakers and can be toggled in the
setup menu. If you have bipole surround speakers for movies and direct
fire surround speakers for music, you
can wire both pairs up and switch
between them in your setup menus.
User's Manual
Surround Back Speakers
Subwoofer Location
The TGR-401 has two extra outputs
for surround back speakers. These
create a wonderful sense of realism
in surround effects during playback of
Dolby Digital EX, Dolby Pro Logic IIx,
and DTS ES.
The TGR-401 has one output connections for a powered subwoofer.
The TGR-401 can be configured
for one or two surround back speakers. Ideally, all the surround speakers should be of the same make and
model, and fitted at similar heights to
produce a smooth continuous soundfield.
If you are connecting one surround
back speaker, connect its amplifier input to the TGR-401 left surround back
output. Place the speaker directly
behind your listening position.
Note that the surround back output
posts are inactive if Zone 2 speakers
are powered by the TGR-401.
The best location for a single
subwoofer can be found by playing
some heavy bass and proceeding as
follows:
1. Place the subwoofer right
on the seat of your couch or
listening easy chair.
2. You can then either run the
calibration (noise) signal
through it, or simply plug the
analog outputs of a CD player
directly into your subwoofer’s
low-level inputs. Turn down
the subwoofer's volume level
before turning on the CD, then
play some of your favorite music samples with heavy bass.
3. Walk around the room, standing in all the positions where
you might be able to place
the subwoofer. This is usually
somewhere close to the corners of the room. Try locations
fairly close to the front speakers.
4. Notice where in the room
the bass output from the
subwoofer sounds the loudest.
Shut things down and install
the subwoofer there.
5. This is the best position for the
subwoofer. The bass will sound
the best when you are sitting in
your normal listening position.

The RS-232 Port
The TGR-401 has a rear panel
RS-232 Serial communication port.
This allows the FLASH memory to
be upgraded to the latest software by
connecting to a PC.
The TGR-401 software may be
updated to refine operational details
and to include new features. Downloadable updates will be posted on
our website:www.sunfire.com.
The port can also connect to the serial port of a Home Theater Controller,
to operate the TGR-401 remotely.

your computer's serial port (COM1 or
COM2).
Update Procedure
1. The current version level of the
software running your TGR401 can be found by looking
at the SOFTWARE VER. OSD
menu. This is under the CONTROL menu (see page 35).
2. Downloadable updates are on
our website www.sunfire.com.
If the website file is newer than
your current version, follow the
website directions to update
your TGR-401.
The RS-232 port also allows the
TGR-401 to be controlled externally
by Home Theater controllers and computers.
Serial command set
Note for programmers and developers: Contact Sunfire Technical Support, or our website www.sunfire.com
for a list of serial commands.
3. Record your calibration, preset
stations or other settings. In
most cases, the upgrade will
not affect any of these settings,
but it is good to record them
just in case.
4.Turn off your computer and
the TGR-401. Position them
close enough so that they can
be easily connected using
your serial cable. If you have
a laptop computer, then it may
be easier to bring that close to
the TGR-401.
5. Connect the TGR-401 RS-232
port to the corresponding serial
port on your computer.
To connect the TGR-401 port to a
computer, you will need a "straightthrough" serial cable. This has connector pins at one end connected
directly to the pins of the connector at
the other end. For example, pin 1 at
one end connects to pin 1 at the other
end, pin 2 connects to pin 2, pin 3 to
pin 3 and so on.
6. Turn on the TGR-401 and your
computer.
These common cables are available from most computer stores (or
from Radio Shack as # 26-117). It
should be 9-pin male at one end, to
fit into the TGR-401 and normally
9. Turn off your computer and the
TGR-401, and disconnect the
serial cable.

Troubleshooting Guide
The Sunfire TGR-401 is expertly
designed and built to provide years of
trouble-free performance. Most problems that occur can usually be solved
by checking your setup or making
sure that the audio and video components connected to the TGR-401 are
on and fully operational.
The following information will help
you deal with common setup problems
you may experience during normal
use of your unit. If problems persist,
contact your Sunfire Dealer for help.
No sound from one or more
speakers
• Speaker cables may have come
undone. Turn off your system and
check the cables, and tighten the
binding posts.
•An audio cable may have an internal break.
• The volume level is low for the
channels concerned. Recheck the
level calibration (page 39).
• The Mute switch is on.
• The channel has not been turned
on in the Speaker Size Menu
(page 33).
•The correct surround mode is not
selected. (Some DVD discs are
stereo only).
•Note: In Source Direct mode, only
the front left and right speakers are
engaged. They must also be set to
Large.
No subwoofer or poor output
•The subwoofer’s amplifier is off, or
its controls are set low.
•Are all speakers set Large?
•SUB is not switched on in the
Speaker Size Menu (page 39).
•Recheck the level calibration procedure (page 39).
•Adjust the Crossover and check
Bass Management (page 39).
•See page 51 to find the best location for your subwoofer.
User's Manual
•If the bass is weak during Dolby
Digital or DTS playback, check the
correct audio output is selected in
your DVD menu, otherwise it may
just play stereo into your TGR-401
and you won’t get the true LFE
signal to the subwoofer.
Poor Tuning of Stations
•The antenna may be incorrectly
attached.
•Station not correctly tuned in, weak
or off the air.
•You can improve reception by using external antennas. Some cable
TV feeds also offer FM reception.
The same AM station can be
heard at different frequencies
•One wire of the AM loop antenna
may not be connected.
•A loop antenna is required for AM
reception, as it forms part of the
front-end tuned circuit.
Fully Automatic does not work
•Make sure the Auto On mode is
set to Y in the MAIN ZONE setup
menu (page 35) and that each
input is configured for AUTO ON
in their respective INPUTS menu
(page 33).
In order to automatically choose the
new input source, this mode senses
the following active signals: Left audio
signals, Video signals, Digital signals
Note that LD or DVD players
sometimes put out digital signals even
when the disc is paused or stopped.
Make sure that any sources are
turned off when not in use.
If a source is always active, the
automatic operation may return to that
input as the analog audio varies. In
this case, you should try and turn off
any unused sources, or turn off the
automatic mode.
If you are listening to a mono
source, make sure it connects to a left
input, or use a “Y” cord to feed both
left and right inputs.
Certain inputs cannot be selected
•Check the INPUTS menu of the
OSD (page 33), and make sure
that the input has not been disabled in that particular Zone.
No TV picture
• Make sure that the video input of
your TV monitor is connected to
the Main monitor output on the
TGR-401 rear panel.
•Check the video input is correct
in the INPUTS menu of the OSD
(page 33). Select the type of video
input you have connected.
• Check that your TV monitor is
selecting it’s correct video input.
• Check the video connection from
your selected source component
into the TGR-401.
•Make sure that you are using the
same video connections. For example, if your source is connected
using S-video, then the TV monitor
must also use S-video.
•If in doubt, try connecting the video
output from your source directly to
your TV monitor. This will help you
narrow down the problem.
•Do not connect more than one type
of video connection to the same
input. Choose only the highest
quality video type.
No Sonic Holography Effect
•It is essential that your front speakers are positioned correctly. See
page 50.
•Sonic Holography is most effective in 2-channel operation. It
gives a more accurate perception
of the position of musicians and
sound effects. The results may be
masked if you are using it in a surround mode.
No Tone Controls
•They will not work if you are using
the 8-CH input, or Source Direct
mode.
53
APPENDIX
No Dolby Digital, DTS playback
•See page 43
•Make sure your player's digital
output is set to BITSTREAM for
Dolby Digital or DTS. This is often
a player's setup menu item, not the
disc's menu.
•Some discs are available with a
number of different options, such
as Dolby Digital or Dolby Pro
Logic. Make sure that you have
selected the correct mode from
your player’s menu.
• Only digital inputs will work for
these modes. Check that your
player's digital output is connected
to the appropriate corresponding
digital input on your TGR-401.
•There is no AC-3 RF input connection for LaserDisc players. You will
need an external RF demodulator.
•Look for the Dolby Digital or DTS
Logo on the source program’s box.
•Check the calibration procedure
from time to time. This is an
excellent way of checking that all
speakers are working correctly.
Noise bursts are heard when
DTS encoded CDs or LDs are
played
• Compressed DTS data uses the
normal digital audio tracks of CDs
and LDs. This analog noise may
be heard in your system before the
DTS digital signal is locked on, or it
may appear as a background hiss.
•If you are not using Zone 2, try to
reduce or prevent this noise by
disconnecting any analog connections to your CD or LD players.
Just use the Digital connections.
No On Screen Display
•See page 31
•Press the remote's MENU button to activate the OSD. It should
be present even when no video
source has been selected.
•There is no pop-up text for component video connections, but there
is full-page OSD.
54
On Screen Display flickers when
engaged
•One of the features of the TGR401 is that its OSD circuit is not in
the video signal path all the time.
This allows for the best possible
video quality. When OSD pop up
text appears, or the Main OSD
menus are engaged, there can be
a slight flicker as the OSD circuit is
switched in.
Sound drops out with CD or
DVD playback
•Make sure the disc is not dirty or
scratched.
•Some inexpensive players and
changers tend to miss-track more
often, causing dropouts with an
external DAC.
Remote won’t Learn
•See page 28
•Make sure you are pointing the
original remote into the receiving
window of the Sunfire remote. This
is located on the top edge of the
remote.
•Try touching and holding the first
button to be learned.
•Do not do the learn procedure in
bright lighting or sunlight.
•Make sure the Sunfire remote is
correctly in its LEARN mode.
•Try varying the distance between
the remotes from 1 to 2 inches,
and see if the learn procedure
improves.
Remote will not work
•Check that the front or rear IR
receivers have not been turned off
in the OSD CONTROL menu.
Zone 2 does not work
•See page 48
•Use the remote control's Zone
2 device button, followed by the
Power button to turn Zone 2
on. Alternatively, press the front
panel Zone 2 button, then the main
Power button.
•The front panel Zone 2 Power light
will be on when Zone 2 is on. The
Zone 2 adjust light turns on when
the zone is being adjusted from the
front panel.
•Make sure that Powered Z2 is set
to ON in the OSD Binding Posts
Menu).
Zone 2 does not play digital
inputs
Zone 2 can play analog sources
independent of what is playing in the
Main Zone. It cannot play from a
digital-only source unless that input
is selected and playing in the Main
Zone. To play a source such as a DVD
player in Zone 2 independent of the
Main Zone, make sure you connect
the player's L/R analog audio output
to the TGR-401.
TGR-401 does not respond to
any controls
•Unplug AC power momentarily,
and press Power to turn back on
•If this does not work, try the reset
procedure on the next page.
•See pages 25-30
•Make sure the batteries are not
dead, or installed incorrectly.
•Make sure the remote is set on the
correct device display for the component you are trying to control.
•Make sure that the buttons have
not been erased or learned over.
•Make sure that the TGR-401 front
panel receiver window is not obstructed.
User's Manual
APPENDIX
Updating firmware problems
•See page 52
•If you have a Palm Pilot™ or similar device with “HotSync™” or its
equivalent, you may need to disable this software before proceeding. This software ‘seizes’ control
of a serial port on your machine
and prevents the Sunfire software
from accessing that port. Use another port or disable HotSync.
•Check that the serial cable is
connected correctly between the
TGR-401 and your computer's serial port.
A Hum is heard in your speakers
•If the hum persists, disconnect all
the source components one at a
time from the back of the TGR401, until you identify the problem.
•Ground loop isolators are available
for audio lines and video. Ask your
Sunfire Dealer for assistance.
•Try moving the speaker cables
away from any power cords. Try
just one speaker, connecting it to
different channels and see if an
amplifier channel is bad.
•If you are still having a problem,
Sunfire’s dealers and technical
support staff will assist you.
Other causes of noise
This problem is more than likely
caused by a “ground loop” in your
system, rather than a fault in the TGR401. Follow these steps to isolate the
main cause of the hum, there may
even be more than one.
•Speaker noise may also be caused
by interference or noise on your
AC line. Make sure there are no
large appliances sharing the line,
or halogen lamps or light-dimming
Triac devices.
• Remember to turn off all components in your system, including the
TGR-401, before disconnecting or
connecting any cables.
•Try connecting your system to another AC socket on a separate line.
•Disconnect the following items in
order, and check each time if the
hum has gone away:
• Disconnect all cables which come
from outside the room, such as
cable TV, satellite TV, or roof top
antennas. Make sure that they are
disconnected where they first enter
the room, so they are making no
connection to the TGR-401 or the
TV, or any other component. If the
hum is caused by the cable TV
line, then you will need a “ground
loop isolator.” This is an inexpensive device fitted in line with the
coaxial cable feed. Contact your
cable company or your Sunfire
Dealer for assistance.
General notes
Check the following to get the best
out of your TGR-401:
•Each speaker's average impedance is not less than 4 ohms.
•The TGR-401 has good ventilation,
and none of its vents are covered.
•Try setting all the speakers to 90
Hz, and let your subwoofer handle
the heavy bass.
•Check that the amplifier power
output is a good match for your
speakers. If your speakers are
inefficient, consider using an external power amplifier.
•If the hum is heard from within
the TGR-401 and not through the
speakers, this may also be caused
by interference on the AC or DC
lines. The power transformers
may turn this interference into an
audible noise. Internal hum can be
made worse by a shelf or cabinet
resonating, so try moving the TGR401 to another shelf.
• Try moving your components further
away from the TV, especially if
you ever notice the screen has
changed color in the area closest
to the component.
•If you have very high efficiency
speakers, these may show up
noise which other speakers may
not.
• Disconnect all connections from
the TGR-401 to your TV.
•Disconnect any component which
has a grounded power cord.

the display, then you are in Preset
direct tune. Enter the two digits of
your choice for the preset number that
you want. For presets below 10, enter
a zero for the first num key. Once two
digits are entered, the tuner will tune
to that preset and display the channel
number on the top line and the channel description on the second line. For
direct enter channel tuning, you will
need to enter three digits, starting with
00, if the channel is below ten.
If you see the message “CALL
SIRIUS”, then you are currently tuned
to a channel that was just deactivated
by SIRIUS, due to channel lineup
change, subscription is deactivated or
changed, etc.
CHANNEL UP/DOWN buttons will
tune any presets you have loaded
with channels. If you only have the
first four presets loaded, then pressing
Channel Up after preset 4 will wrap
back around to preset 1.
To see information about the currently tuned station, press the INFO
key to cycle through Category (CAT>),
Artist (ART>), Song Title (TTL>),
Composer (CMP>) and the playmode
(Stereo by default).
If you see the message “UPDATING 10%”, then you are 10% finished
with having a firmware update from
SIRIUS. The updates take less than a
minute or two, typically.
Category tuning is activated by
pressing NAV SEL. Briefly, the second display line will say “Category
Mode.” Now when you tune channel

the channels inside the category you
are in (POP, NEWS, etc.) To change
categories, use NAV LEFT or NAV
RIGHT. Each press will step you to a
new category. To rapidly preview the
content of the channels in the current
category, press and hold down the
tune up or tune down keys. You will
still hear the last tuned station playing but be able to see what is playing
on the other channels, from the info
on the display. Pausing for a couple
seconds during tuning will then tune
to the channel that you are visually
previewing.
The num keys can be used in two
ways: direct enter channel access, or
direct enter preset access. The default
when the TGR-401 is first powered
on is direct enter channel access. On
page 2 of the TG401 softkey menu on
the remote (or page 1 of the Zone2
softkey remote menu) is a button
label called TUNMD. Pressing this
toggles back and forth between direct
enter channel and direct enter preset
modes. Press the button once and

Troubleshooting:
If you are in a marginal signal area,
with no terrestrial repeaters, or the antenna is blocked by trees or buildings,
you may see the message “ACQUIRING” come up on the display with no
sound playing. Below a certain signal
strength threshold of usability, the
tuner will try to re-acquire the satellite
signal. If necessary, readjust the antenna or relocate it in a more optimum
position.
If you see the message “UPDATING”, then SIRIUS is performing an
automatic firmware update to your
SIRIUS tuner module (unrelated to
TGR-401 firmware updates).
Certain SIRIUS features are not
supported with the Sunfire TGR-401,
such as channel locking, channel skipping, JumpSet operation, traffic jump,
storing songs, artists and games,
SIRIUS Seek, SIRIUS Alerts, Virtual
Categories, Game Alerts, and buffered
operation with Play/Pause functions.
If the antenna cable is not plugged
in on one end or the other, you will get
an error message “ANTENNA”. Power
down the system and re-check all
connections.
If you cannot tune any stations
other than 0 or 184, or cannot get any
channel info on your presets, then
your SIRIUS tuner unit may not be
powered up. Check to see that you
have a green indicator light on the
tuner unit. Not having an active subscription will also cause this.
If you see the message “SUB
UPDATED”, then SIRIUS is updating
your subscription to include or disclude channels.
