3 Soft KeysThese keys operate functions depending on the System Component Key setting.numeric keypad: In preamp mode the numeric keys will switch between the amplifier inputs(1 - cd, 2 - tuner, 3 - tape, 4 - av, 5 - aux 1, 6 - aux 2). In cd mode the numeric keys will select tracks.In tuner mode the numeric keys will select tuner presets or can be used directly to input stationfrequencies.prog: In preamp mode the prog key function varies depending upon the specific amplifier model inuse. Firstly, some models incorporate a programmable volume control system that enables differentsource component output levels to be matched. Secondly, some models incorporate optionalautomatic source switching which will switch the input of the amplifier as soon as any handset keyappropriate to a particular source is operated. For example, if the tuner input is selected on theamplifier and the CD play key is operated on the handset, the amplifier will switch to the CD input.Thirdly, if you have a surround sound processor connected to the A/V input, the volume control on theamplifier can be disabled, allowing the processor to take over control of the output level from thepower amplifier stage (unity gain).To program the volume control for each input first set the volume control to a comfortable listeninglevel with the loudest source (probably CD). Enter program mode by pressing and holding the prog keyuntil the amplifier volume control indicator flashes. Select the input to be adjusted using the handsetand use the vol up and down keys to set the volume to a comfortable listening level. The amplifiervolume control will not rotate during this operation. Select a further input to adjust. To exit programmode press and hold the prog key until the volume control indicator stops flashing, or operate anycontrol on the amplifier.To access automatic source switching enter program mode as described above.

The mute button on the amplifier willilluminate when unity gain is selected. Exit program mode as above. The unity gain function shouldonly be used where the amplifier is used in a correctly configured A/V system. Damage may resultif the unity gain feature is used inappropriately.To return to the default settings, press and hold the prog key until the amplifier volume controlindicator flashes. Press and hold disp key until the volume control indicator stops flashing.In cd mode the prog key enables specific CD tracks and their play order to be selected. To select a playorder select a track number from the numeric keypad followed by the prog key until the desiredselection is complete. During selection, the track number indicated in the player display will befollowed by either “P”, “-” or a space. “P” indicates that the track is already selected. “-” indicates thatthe track can be selected. A space indicates that there is no more memory available.The prog key can also be used to delete tracks from a play order. To delete a track, press and hold theprog key until the prog indicator in the CD display illuminates then delete the track or tracks using thenumeric keypad followed each time by a further operation of the prog key. During deletion the tracknumber indicated in the player display will be followed by either “C”, “-” or a space. “C” indicates thatthe track is already deleted. “-” indicates that the track can be deleted. A space indicates that thereis no more memory available.The play order can be reviewed by pressing prog while the player is either stopped or playing. Theplayer display will then scroll through the selected tracks. The prog indicator on the player display willilluminate when a play order has been programmed. To clear memory press and hold the stop key.In tuner mode the prog key enables specific FM station frequencies to be assigned to preset memory.To assign a station to a preset first tune manually by inputting the station frequency directly from thenumeric keypad or by using the up or down keys (or scan). Press and hold the prog key on the handset.The tuner is now in preset programming mode - the preset indicator will flash and the display willshow “— — ”. Press the desired preset number from the numeric keypad. The display will show “— ” or“P” if the preset number is already in use. Exit from program mode and save the new or overwrittenpreset by pressing and holding the prog key. To exit program mode without saving (or overwriting) apreset, select “0 0” on the numeric keypad. To erase a preset number, select the preset and press andhold the display key. To clear all preset numbers press and hold the program key followed by thedisplay key.display: In cd mode the display key will scroll through these options: tracks (“time” indicator off),time (“time” indicator on) and display off.
