Source Labels

The backlit label indicates which source compo-
nent your Function Control keys will operate. 

When the preamp/receiver is off, the label back-
lighting turns off automatically.

Status LED

When the preamp/receiver is On, the status LED
is lit. The color of the LED displays whether the
local speakers are On or Muted.

GREEN
Local speakers and the preamp/receiver are On.

RED
Local speakers are Muted, but the system is On.

OFF
System is Off.

Whenever an IR command is issued to one of
your components the LED blinks. It blinks red
when green, and green when red.

Power Key

If the Power key is pressed when the system is
On, the preamp/receiver will turn Off.

If the Power key is pressed when the system is
Off, the preamp/receiver will turn On, the local
speakers will turn On (unmute) and the last
source selected will be displayed by the source
label.

Mute Key 

This key controls the built-in Speaker Mute fea-
ture. You can mute the local speakers anytime
by pressing the Mute key. To turn the local
speakers back on (or “unmute”) you may press
either the Mute key or one of the six Source
Select keys.

Volume Up and Volume Down Keys 

These keys raise and lower the volume of your
preamp/receiver.

Function Control Keys

A touch to any of the function control keys will
operate the selected source component only. 

For example, when CD is the selected source, a
press on the play key issues the CD’s Play IR
command.  However, when Tape is the selected
source, a press of the Play key issues the Tape
Deck’s Play IR command.
