rubybaker44, this sounds like it is the "Inactivity Standby" feature. This feature will turn the receiver into standby mode if it is not touched for a certain number of hours. You can change the number of hours before this happens by selecting Menu -8-4. On the right you can scroll through and change the amount of time before the receivers goes to standby mode. If you have any other questions, please email me at [email protected]. Thank you!
