active speaker. The level for the
selected channel can then be
changed using the Adjustment
+/– buttons (11). Levels set in
one mode will stay valid for all
other modes and are not inde-
pendent. Please note that the
status-bar indicator (27) will
not display unless Adjustment
+/– buttons are pressed. And,
while the status-bar indicator
(27) is on, channel indicators
(28) and LVL (29) will not be
displayed. Also, if adjustments
are done in a mode where a cer-
tain channel is not available,
the adjustment step for that
channel is skipped. For examp-
le, in Phantom mode the center-
channel level cannot be ad-
justed since Phantom does not
have a center channel. In
stereo, neither the center nor
the surround levels can be
adjusted since Stereo does not
feature surround speakers or a
center speaker. 
A seventh press of the Level
button will exit the escXcite
from its level-adjustment mode.

11. Adjustment
These buttons are used in con-
junction with Test (8), Delay
(9), and Level (10) to increase
or decrease a setting.

12. Bass
Press (+) to increase the level of
low-frequency information.
Press (–) to decrease the level

24. Dolby Pro Logic
Illuminates when Dolby Pro
Logic decoding of a 2-channel
signal is taking place. This indi-
cator may be on by itself (when
analog inputs are used), in con-
junction with Dolby Digital
(when using a digital input
where the Dolby Digital format
signal contains two channels
and needs to be decoded into
multichannel) or together with
PCM (when using a digital input
where 2-channel PCM-format
data is being decoded into mul-
tichannel).

supplied through the selected
digital input is in PCM format.

29. Level

in speaker-level adjustment
mode.

let and the master switch on the
back panel is in On/Standby
