Press the “Setup” button and the label you’ve just 
assigned to the B1 input will appear in the display. 

 

8.

 

At this point you can (i) continue configuring other 
options for the B1 input (see the next step), (ii) 
configure another input such as B2 (rotate the 
volume control clockwise to access the B2 input), or 
(iii) leave the Setup mode  (press the “Setup” button 
once and “INPUTS” appears in the display; the press 
it again and “EXITING” will appear in the display) 

 

9.

 

The next option to configure for the B1 input is the 
maximum volume setting.  Press “OK” and “LABEL” 
will appear in the display.  Then slowly rotate the 
volume control clockwise until “MAX VOL” appears 
in the display.  Press “OK” and the factory default of 
“80.0dB” will appear in the display; this is the 
maximum volume level. 

 

10.

 

The maximum setting can be changed by rotating 
the volume control. A slow rotation makes 0.1dB 
adjustments and a faster rotation results in 1.0dB 
adjustments.  Once you’ve found a desired setting, 
press “OK” and  “SAVED” will briefly appear in the 
display followed by “MAX VOL”.  The lowest 
possible setting is 40.0dB. 

 

11.

 

The next option to configure for the B1 input is 
volume offset. This allows you to compensate for 
the different output levels amongst your various 
source components you will be connecting to the 

740P

.  Slowly rotate the volume control clockwise 

and “OFFSET” will appear in the display.  Press “OK” 
and the factory default of “+6.0dB” will appear in 
the display. 

 

12.

 

You can adjust the volume offset in either 0.1dB 
(slow rotation) or 1.0dB (faster rotation) increments 
to 10.0dB by rotating the volume control 
clockwise or –10.0dB rotating the volume control 
counter-clockwise. Once you’ve found the 
appropriate setting, press “OK” and  “SAVED” will 
briefly appear in the display the “OFFSET”. 

 

13.

 

The fourth configurable option is the volume 
bypass feature for use with home-theater 
processors and source components that have their 
own volume control.  When activated, the volume 
control of the 

740P

 is bypassed and the volume 

level is adjusted using the component connected 
to the input.  Slowly rotate the volume control 

clockwise and “BYPASS” will appear in the display.  
Press “OK”.   

 

14.

 

The factory default of “BYPASS N” will appear in the 
display.  Use the volume control to alternate 
between “BYPASS N” and “BYPASS Y” and then 
press “OK”.  Next you will be asked to confirm your 
selection as “SURE ? N” will appear in the display. 
Rotate the volume control until “SURE ? Y” appears 
in the display.  Press “OK” and “SAVED” will briefly 
appear in the display followed by “BYPASS”.  When 
you set the volume bypass to “Y”, the volume 
setting you saved for the input with “OFFSET” will 
be maintained. 

 
15.

 

The fifth and final configurable option for the B1 
input is to disable it when it won’t be used.  Slowly 
rotate the volume control clockwise and “ENABLE” 
will appear in the display.  Press “OK”. 

 

16.

 

The factory default is “ENABLE Y” which will appear 
in the display. Use the volume control to alternate 
between “ENABLE N” and “ENABLE Y”.  Press “OK” 
and  “SAVED” will briefly appear in the display 
followed by “ENABLE”. When an input has been 
disabled it will appear only in the Setup menu as 
“B1 N/A”. 

 

17.

 

You have now passed through all five configuration 
options for the B1 input. At this point, you can (i) 
repeat the above process for the another input by 
pressing the “Setup” button and then use the 
volume control to select the next input to 
configure,  (ii) exit from the Setup procedure by 
pressing the “Setup” button three times or  (iii) 
continue with the Setup procedure and either 
assign the 12 Volt trigger outputs or reset the 

740P

 

back to factory default status  (see the following 
examples). 

 
 

The 

MOON 740P

 is equipped with software that allows 

the MiND app to control various features of this 
preamplifier. With the MiND app you will be able to 
adjust the volume level, mute the output, place the 
preamplifier into ‘Standby’ mode and then place it back 
into operational mode. As well, when you begin playing 
a music track from the MiND app, the 

740P

 will 

automatically switch to the input configured for the 
MiND. With the MiND app, you are essentially
