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
of low-frequency information.

13. Treble

Press (+) to increase the level of

One of these four indicators will

mode is chosen.

22. Dolby Digital

Indicates the presence of a
Dolby Digital-encoded digital
signal.

23. DTS

Indicates the presence of DTS
encoded digital signal.

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).

25. PCM

Illuminates when the signal
supplied through the selected
digital input is in PCM format.

26. Late Night

Illuminates when the Late Night
compression is selected.

27. Status-Bar Indicator

These LEDS show the relative
setting of volume, bass, treble,
speaker level and speaker delay.

28. Speaker Indicator

Identifies the speaker that’s
being adjusted. LS is Left Sur-
round, LF is Left Front, C is Cen-
ter, RF is Right Front, RS is
Right Surround, and SUB is Sub-
woofer.

29. Level

Illuminates when the escXcite is
in speaker-level adjustment
mode.

30. Delay

Illuminates when the escXcite is
in speaker-delay adjustment
mode.

31. On

Indicates that the escXcite is
fully powered up.

32. Standby

Indicates that the escXcite is
plugged into an active wall out-
let and the master switch on the
back panel is in On/Standby
position, but the unit is not
powered on.

33. Mute

Illuminates when the mute
function is activated (the 
escXcite will be on but will not
produce any sound).
