POWER
Press the POWER button to turn the AVR100 on. The status LED
changes to green on powering up and the display shows the
active input. Pressing the POWER button again turns the unit and
the status LED off.
A red status LED indicates that the AVR100 is in stand by and
can be switched on by the remote handset.
Input selection
The input selection buttons are labelled to correspond with
the audio and video inputs on the rear panel of the AVR100.
To select an input, press the appropriate button on the front
panel. The audio signal for that source will then be routed to
the speakers. Any picture signal associated with that input is
switched to the monitor output.
The name of the selected input is shown in the display: SAT,
DVD, VCR or AUX, etc.
EXT 5.1
To select the source connected to the 5.1 channel input press
EXT 5.1. When this input is selected, none of the alternative
surround modes are available.
SURROUND MODE
When a selected digital input carries a Dolby Digital or DTS
signal, the AVR100 automatically detects it and processes the
signal accordingly.
For an analogue input or when no Dolby Digital or DTS signal is
detected, pressing the
SURROUND MODE button cycles through
the available surround sound modes: Stereo, Pro Logic and
Hall effect.
The selected mode is displayed in the main section of the
display for three seconds, before reverting to show the active
input. The surround mode continues to be shown in the left hand
side of the display.
Dolby Digital, DTS Both of these formats feature six
independent audio channels: Left, Centre,
Right, Surround Left, Surround Right
and a Low Frequency Effects (LFE) or
subwoofer channel.
Dolby Pro Logic This format decodes the centre and
surround sound signals embedded in
Dolby Surround or Dolby Stereo movie
soundtracks.
Hall effect This format decodes a normal stereo
signal to simulate the ambience of a
concert hall.
TAPE MONITOR
The TAPE MONITOR button selects the audio output from a
cassette deck connected to the TAPE IN phono sockets of the
AVR100. It also enables you to monitor a recording being made
on a 3-head cassette deck. Tape monitor status is shown in red
on the display.
When the tape monitor is selected, pressing other source
buttons changes the signal sent to the recorder.
NOTE: TAPE MONITOR is a latching button: you will need to
press it again before selecting another source for listening.
CD
The CD button selects the source connected to the CD phono
sockets.
FM, AM
To select the integrated tuner function of the AVR100, press
the FM or AM button. See the facing page for Tuner control
instructions.
