Speaker/Channel Input Indicators:
These
indicators are multipurpose, indicating either the
speaker type selected for each channel or the
incoming data-signal configuration. The left, center,
right, right surround and left surround speaker
indicators are composed of three boxes, while the
subwoofer is a single box. The center box lights
when a “Small” speaker is selected, and the two
outer boxes light when “Large” speakers are
selected. When none of the boxes are lit for the
center, surround or subwoofer channels, no speaker
has been selected for that position. (See page 22
for more information on configuring speakers.) The
letters inside each of the center boxes display
active input channels. For standard analog inputs,
only the L and R will light, indicating a stereo
input. When a digital source is playing, the indica-
tors will light to display the channels begin
received at the digital input. When the letters
flash, the digital input has been interrupted.
(See page 34 for more information on the Channel
Indicators).
