HOW TO USE THE SLEEP KEY

The 

Home Producer 8 has a SLEEP key that either

operates your component’s sleep timer or, if your
component does not have a sleep timer, it activates
the 

Home Producer 8’s built-in sleep timer, after you

activate SLEEP LOCK.  To use the 

Home Producer

8’s SLEEP key, press SLEEP (SHIFT MUTE).

If your component does not have a sleep timer, the
Home Producer 8 will access its own built-in timer.
To activate the built-in sleep timer, press SLEEP
(SHIFT MUTE).  The display will change to
[SLEEP 15].  To add time to the sleep timer, press
MENU -.  Each press of MENU - will add 15 minutes
to the sleep timer, up to a total of 60 minutes.  Once
the desired time is displayed on the LCD screen,
press SELECT.  The display screen will change to
[SLEEP and the TIME].

 Sleep Lock

If you would like the 

Home Producer 8 to use its

built-in sleep timer on all of your components, you

VOLUME LOCK

With the 

Home Producer 8, you can choose which

home entertainment component controls your
volume.  When you originally set up the

 Home

Producer 8, each individual component operates its
own volume, provided the component has volume
control.  You can change this setting so that one
component controls the volume no matter which
component the 

Home Producer 8 is operating.  For

example, to set-up the 

Home Producer 8 to always

control the volume through your Amplifier:

1

Press and hold MAGIC until the
display screen changes from
[DEVICE and the TIME] to
[TIMED SEQ].

2

Press the MENU - key twice, the
display will change to
[CONFIGURE]. Press SELECT, the
display will change to [THEATR SEL].

3

Press MENU - two times, the display
will read [VOL LOCK].  Press
SELECT, the display will change to
[UNLOCK].

4

Press MENU - one time to change
the display to [LOCK] then press
SELECT. Now press the key for the
component that will control your
volume.  In  this example, to control
the volume through your amplifier,
press AMP.  Press SELECT. The
display will return to [DEVICE and
the TIME].

Now, when you use the volume keys on your
Home Producer 8, the volume will be controlled by
the specified component.

To return volume control to each individual
component:

1

Press and hold MAGIC until the
display screen changes from
[DEVICE and the TIME] to
[TIMED SEQ].
