For instance, Input 1 is assigned to the stereo input connectors labeled 1, Input 2 is assigned to the stereo input connectors labeled 2, and so on. Custom input names should be based on the component with which the input is associated. For instance, DVD is an appropriate custom name for an input associated with a DVD player. Two methods are available for customizing input names: the custom names list and the character list.

Note

Linked Mark Levinson components must have recognizable custom input names to share Link controls. For instance, an input associated with a Nº 360S Digital Audio Processor should be named No360S. In some cases, linked components will assign correct input names for other linked, associated components. Otherwise, use the custom names list to enter the correct input name.

The custom names list shown in the top-left corner of the next page provides convenient access to 28 custom input names that can be used for the most common associated components, including other Mark Levinson components. It also includes custom input names that can be used to deactivate unused inputs or to activate SSP mode. The table on the next page indicates the intended use of all custom input names available on the custom names list.
