An RS232 Protocol addendum which describes all pertinent RS232 information, including values contained within
each Status Level is available for download from the Theta Digital website, in the “Library” section.

If RS232 is not being used, ensure that the Echo Status (
ECHOS
) parameter is set to
OFF
. Other settings can slow
the operation of the Casablanca III.

Initial Power-On Master Volume
Button #
1
(
INILVL
, or Initial Level) allows the user to store an initial master volume setting that the Casablanca III will
default to when it comes out of standby.
FVOL and SVOL
When certain parameters are edited or the master volume changed, holding the
LEVEL UP
/
DOWN
button for more
than 5 steps will, by default, speed up the rate in which the value changes. This is referred to as
Fast Mode
. It is
possible to delay the speed of the fast mode in order to slow it down to the users preference. In
FVOL
(Fast Volume)
a delay of
0
will allow the Fast Mode to be its quickest (no delay), and a delay of
255
allows it to be its slowest.
The rate that the
LEVEL UP
/
DOWN
buttons respond during the first 5 steps is referred to as
Slow Mode
.
SVOL
allows the user to slow down the increment changes during these first 5 steps (a higher delay time) or increase their
speed with a lower delay time setting. In
SVOL
(Slow Volume) a delay of
0
will allow the Slow Mode to be its quickest,
and a delay of
255
allows it to be its slowest.
Buttons
2
and
3
control these values.
Maximum Overall Level
Button #
4
(
MAX
) allows the user to set a maximum master level of the Casablanca III. This is especially useful in a
household where young relentless children and smart pets are accessible to the system.
Changing the Default MUTE Level
When the front panel or hand held remote
MUTE
button is pressed, the user can set the master volume level to mute
to a specific level. Editing this parameter is accessed by pressing button #
5
.
MUTE Off Trigger
The Casablanca III can be un-muted in 2 ways: pressing the
MUTE
button or the
LEVEL UP
/
DOWN
buttons. The
user has the option of overriding the use of the
LEVEL UP
/
DOWN
buttons so that only the
MUTE
button un-mutes the
Casablanca III. Setting the parameter (accessed via button #
6
) to
MUTE
allows only the
MUTE
button to un-mute the
Casablanca III whereas setting this parameter to
M+V
(
MUTE
and
VOLUME
) allows both the
MUTE
and
LEVEL
UP
/
DOWN
buttons to un-mute.
