VOLUME CONTROL
The volume of the amplifier can be adjusted using the volume control knob on the
amplifier and via the remote control handset. The volume level is controlled via a
microprocessor, which in turn takes its information from the volume control knob
digital encoder on the front panel or the remote control handset. The volume control
has a resolution of 1dB per step, giving a total range of 80 steps over the available
gain or volume range of 80dB. There is a calibrated LED display comprising of 20
LED's, which indicates the gain level or relative position of the volume control; this is
calibrated in 4dB steps, across the total gain of the volume range. The left and right
channels are matched and balanced within 0.2dB, ensuring a centrally placed sound-
stage no matter what the volume position. Turning the volume control counter
clockwise two detents, with all the LED’s off, activates the software controlled mute
within the volume control.
LED DISPLAY DIMMER FUNCTIONS
To change the brightness of the volume control LED display, push the input selector
(to the left of the input LED’s) switch once. You are now in input selection and dimmer
mode. Pressing the mute switch three times will step through the three different
levels of display brightness. You have about eight seconds to make your selection
using the Mute switch.
