to exit the menu system.
NOTE:
The output levels may be separately
trimmed for each digital and analog surround mode.
If you wish to have different trim levels for a specific
mode, select that mode and then follow the instruc-
tions in the steps shown above.
With Stereo and VMAx modes the adjustment
procedure described above is the only way to trim
the output level, e.g. to match the Stereo or
VMAx level with other modes.
Dim Function
Since the DPR will often be used when movies or
other video programming is viewed under low-
light conditions, you may wish to lower the bright-
ness of the front-panel displays and indicators so
that they do not distract from the video presenta-
tion. You may dim the displays using the menu
system, as shown on page 40, or you may control
the brightness directly from the remote.
Simply press the
Dim Button
D
once to dim
the front panel to half the normal brightness level;
press it again to turn the displays off. Note that
when the displays are dimmed or turned off, the
blue lighting around the
Standby/On Switch
3
will continue to stay lit as a reminder that the DPR
is still turned on.
The accent lighting for the
Volume Control
ı
will remain at its normal level, rather than dim
when the panel displays are at half brightness.
Note that all changes to the front-panel bright-
ness level are temporary; the displays will return
to full brightness after the DPR is turned off and
then on again. To return the displays to full bright-
ness without turning the unit off, press the
Dim
Button
D
as needed until the displays are on.
In addition to lowering the brightness of the dis-
plays or turning them off completely, you may
wish to have them appear whenever a button on
the remote or front panel is pushed, and then
gradually fade out after a set time period. You
may do this by making the appropriate settings in
the
VFD FADE TIME OUT
line of the
ADVANCED
Menu, as shown on page 40.
Memory Backup
This product is equipped with a memory backup
system that preserves tuner presets and system
configuration information if the unit is turned off
completely, accidentally unplugged or subjected
to a power outage. This memory will last for
approximately two weeks, after which time all
information must be reentered.
