JBL Synthesis, Owner'S Manual

Page: 4 / 23

This Section focuses on the basic operations required to
power up the system, to use it, to make simple everyday
adjustments to both its Cinema and Music functions,
and to turn it off. More advanced adjustments are
covered in
Section 2: Advanced Operations . Your
certified JBL Installer will be glad to overview these
materials with you.
1.1 Powering Up
The system can easily and quickly be turned on using
the Remote Controller, pictured on this page. Simply
push the button marked
POWER and the Surround
Processor, Amplifiers, Equalizers, Crossovers, and
Speakers will all automatically power up, in sequence.
Next, turn on the Source Devices you want to use —
VCR, Laser Disc player, CD, Television/Video, Audio
Cassette Player.
You can turn these on in any order.
1.2 Basic Remote Control
Operations
Your JBL Synthesis Remote Control unit handles
virtually all of the functions of the system. Basic
Operations include Selecting Source Devices, and
Adjusting the Master Volume.
1.2.1 Selecting Source Devices
Examine the lower half of the Remote Controller until
you have found six buttons with labels above each.
These buttons allow you to directly access a particular
source device and play it through the system. The
buttons are labeled
“S-VID-1”, “S-VID-2, "VCR",
“VDP”, “CD", and “AUX”. Your Installer, with your
consultation, has determined the sources available for
use in your system. Therefore certain buttons may be
inoperative, corresponding to the sources not present.
To select a source device, simply press the
corresponding button. The surround processor will
engage that source.
