Screen brightness:
The brightness of the screen can be set to suit your
personal preference. Three brightness levels are avail-
able:

normal
clearly legible, even in sunlight.
If you set either of brightness levels 1 and 2, the screen
switches briefly to normal brightness every time you give
a command, so that you can check the settings easily
even from a distance. After about four seconds the
screen automatically switches back to your preferred
brightness level. If you change the brightness level, this
also means that the new value only becomes effective
after about four seconds.
Switching the on-screen main menu on
and off:
If you just wish to make a temporary change to the bal-
ance or tone, it is not absolutely necessary to call up the
'
Main Menu
'
on the television screen and superimpose it
on what you are watching; in most cases the display on
the decoder’s screen is quite adequate. At this menu
point you can switch the TV on-screen main menu dis-
play on and off.

Loudspeaker
:
The
'
Speaker Setup
'
provides the means to balance the
output signals to the loudspeakers in your surround sys-
tem. At the same time you can adjust the output of the
speakers accurately to suit the acoustic and spatial
characteristics of your listening room.
Picture norm:
In the
'
Video Setup
'
you can set the correct picture norm
to match the picture sources connected to all the de-
coder’s video inputs and outputs.
Source
:
The purpose of the
'
Source Setup
'
is to integrate the AV
sources connected to the decoder into the overall oper-
ating system of the typical ‘R’ system. This is done by
assigning a name to every AV source which is connected
to the decoder; those names are then used from that
point on in all the decoder’s on-screen messages. You
can then define the
audio / video input socket (or
sockets
) on the decoder to which each device is con-
nected. Finally it is possible to assign every AV source to
a
source button
on the remote control handset, so that
the various machines can be selected when the system
is set to
surround mode
.
