Section 5.0 - Setting Up the SSP-60

The SSP-60 has a complete and well-thought-out configuration system, flexible enough for even a complex audio and home theater system. You will find setup to be quite intuitive, and that once set up, operation of the SSP-60 will prove to be simple and straightforward.

Setup requires use of the supplied Classé remote control. You may use either the On-Screen (TV) menu or the illuminated front panel display. The two methods are equally easy to use and understand. The same highlighted selection on the TV on-screen display is visible on the unit’s display panel (except the Analog Monitor sub-menu).

To begin: be sure the SSP-60 is on. If the SSP-60 display is not on, and the green LED above the standby button is not lit, then you must turn the power “ON” with the rocker switch above the AC cord on the rear panel. (The SSP-60 may be left in “Standby” mode indefinitely when not in use. You may wish to unplug it or turn it off completely when you will be away for a long period of time, or when a thunderstorm threatens). The backup Flash Memory does not require any maintenance since no battery is used in this system.

Pressing the MENU key on the remote accesses the main menu. The /\ and \/ keys (above and below the ENTER key) scroll through the main menus and the sub-menus, positioning the cursor beside the choices. Press the ENTER key to access the menu item you have highlighted.
