Level and Balance Controls

The 

 keys 

b

 are used to adjust both volume

level and channel balance.

Volume

Press  

 to increase the volume level.

Press  

  to decrease the volume level.

Balance

Pressing the 

 key 

1!

 changes the mode of the Level

Control to that of Left/Right Balance.

When Balance mode is selected, the light ring around the
level knob will change function to work in "reverse video"
with the unlit section indicating the position of L-R
balance. In this mode, you can control the L-R balance by
up to +/-4dB as well as switching one channel off
completely when the balance is set to an extreme position.

Typical Balance indications are shown below.

To adjust Channel Balance:

Press the 

 key 

1!

 to select Balance mode.

Press  

 to move the channel balance to the Right.

Press  

  to move the channel balance to the Left.

Press the 

 key again to restore normal Volume mode.

If you leave the Cyrus aCA7 set to Balance, after 5 seconds
of inactivity the mode automatically reverts to indicate
volume level.

As an alternative to using the handset keys to adjust the
balance, you may use the 

 key to select balance mode

and then adjust the balance using the Level Control on the
front panel.

Mute

Pressing the MUTE key 

1)

 fades the main volume to zero.

Pressing the MUTE key again restores the volume to the
level it was at prior to selecting Mute (unless the volume
was set very high in which case the Cyrus aCA7 will
restore at a safe lower level of –15dB).

You cannot select or deselect headphones via the handset.

SYSTEM OPERATION WITH THE COMMANDER

When a Cyrus CD player, FM7 tuner and suitable
ancillary units are connected to the Cyrus aCA7,
integrated system operation is possible using the Remote
Commander 
handset (see page 17 for details).
