Menu "Channel Setup":
This menu comprises all settings, that are valid only for the current selected input
channel. If you change the input channel, all settings are saved automatically and the
channel settings for the new channel are loaded. Therefore, you can adjust the MAP to
each connected source independently, and don't have to worry about saving and re-
loading the settings you made. The MAP will do the work automatically.
Internal Decoder:
In order to switch off the internal decoder, press key
(the display shows
'
disabled
', OSD shows '
pure 2-chan
.'). All program material is downmixed to 2-
ch Stereo independently from the original program format. Dolby Pro Logic IIx or DTS
Neo:6 decoding, Bass and Delay Management are off in this mode. It is strongly
recommended to use this mode for Stereo PCM or 2-ch analog sources only.
Press key
to activate the internal decoder (the display shows '
active
', OSD shows
'
Multi-Channel
'). All incoming program formats (PCM or bitstream) are detected
and decoded automatically (see also section
'PCM direct'
).
Note:
The internal decoder can be activated for all audio inputs except the external 8-
channel analog input ('
External 8ch
').
Note:
If the internal decoder is active for a 2-channel analog audio input, the input
signals are internally converted from analog to digital. Now all functions like Dolby Pro
Logic IIx or DTS Neo:6 decoding, bass and delay management, digital equalizer etc are
available as for any digital audio input.
Note:
The internal analog to digital converter has an input sensitivity of 2 V
RMS
. If input
signals exceed this level, the converter will overload causing audible distortions. The
front display and the On Screen Display (OSD) will issue a warning ('
ADC
Overload!
', OSD: '
A/D Converter Overload
'). In this case, reduce the output
level of the unit connected to the MAP until no overload is detected.
Set Video Input:
You can assign one of 8 video inputs (4 cinch video inputs 3, 4 S-Video inputs 4) to
each input channel independently. Even multiple assignments are allowed (e.g. a DVD
player has more than one audio output). If no video input is needed for an audio input,
please select '
No Video Input
'.
If you assign any of the Cinch (or Composite) video inputs 3 to an audio input, you will
have a video signal at the Cinch video outputs 7 as well as at the S-Video outputs
s-
video1
6 (automatically converted by the internal 'Cinch-to-S-Video Converter').
Note:
S-Video output
s-video 2
has only a signal, if any of the S-Video inputs
s-video1
to
s-video4
4 is selected for the current audio input. Cinch video signals converted by
the internal 'Cinch-To-S-Video Converter' are available only at S-Video output
s-video
1
6.
If the optional Progressive Scan Card is inserted, some more video inputs are available.
In this case, please refer to chapter '
Progressive Scan Card
' for more detailed
information.
