and powers up the SPV-1. If the unit is

already powered-up, then pressing the

power button will power the unit down.

If the power LED does not illuminate,

check that the rear panel power switch

(on the power inlet module) is in the

“ON” (“1”) position.

SOURCE BUTTONS:

Pressing one of the source buttons will

switch the appropriate composite and

S-video inputs to the Main Outputs.

The LED will be green to indicate the

puts. Component input selection is

accomplished using the C1 and C2

Pressing the OSD button will change

the OSD assignment between compos-

ite, S-video and component, sequence.

The LED will change colour as follows:

To save OSD settings for each type of

input, press the SAVE button on the

remove control.

RECORD/ZONE BUTTON:

Pressing this button will indicate the

selected record source being routed to

the record outputs. The record LED

and Source LED will turn red. When

the Record/Zone LED is red, any

source (TV, DVD, VCR, etc.) can be

buttons.

N.B. the record path of the SPV-1 is

separate from the monitor path allow-

ing you to record one source while

monitoring a different source.

USING THE BRYSTON SPV-1 WITH THE BRYSTON SP1.7

The combination of the Bryston SP1.7

Surround Processor and the SPV-1

Video Switcher provides for totally

seamless integration of all audio and

video functions.

The Bryston SP1.7 

(units manufac-

tured after October 2002) 

contains all the

RS-232 codes to simultaneously con-

trol the switching functions of the SPV-

1. When the SP1.7 is powered up an

RS-232 command will also power up

the SPV-1. When an input is selected

on the SP1.7 (manually or remotely) it

sends a message to the SPV-1 to

switch the corresponding inputs to the

main and record outputs simultane-

ously. The audio path on the SP1.7

does not allow a separate record path.

It is not possible to listen to one source

while recording another. 

If On-Screen Display (OSD) is

desired, this can be toggled on or off

by pressing the OSD button on the

SP1.7 remote control.  The OSD mes-

sages will be sent from the SP1.7 to

the SPV-1 and displayed on the video

monitor. OSD messages are displayed

when changing inputs, changing

mode, changing volume, or while

using the setup menus.
