path: pressing this button will cycle the PAV through the various signal paths. Having selected a particular path, subsequent source selections affect only that path (e.g., main, remote, both, or record).

recall: pressing this button restores the various channel offsets to their calibrated, most accurate settings (set up during installation and calibration). You can experiment with adjusting the levels of the subwoofers, center channel, surrounds, etc. to suit your prefer- ence or a particular recording, knowing that a single press of re- call will restore the PAV to its calibrated settings.

bal: pressing this button temporarily allows the volume +/– keys to affect the balance of the left front and right front speakers rather than the overall volume.

delay: pressing this button temporarily allows the volume +/– keys to adjust the amount of time the rear channel signals are delayed when in the various surround modes. This time delay may be adjusted between 15–30 mS in 1 mS increments.

sub: pressing this button temporarily allows the volume +/– keys to affect the level of the subwoofer relative to the rest of the sys- tem.

rear: pressing this button temporarily allows the volume +/– keys to affect the level of the rear (surround) speakers relative to the rest of the system.

cntr: pressing this button temporarily allows the volume +/– keys to affect the level of the center front speaker relative to the rest of the system.

master: pressing this button allows the volume +/– keys to affect the overall volume of the system, maintaining any relative settings between the various loudspeakers. This is the default mode for the volume +/– keys, to which the PAV will return after a few sec- onds of inactivity.

display: pressing this button will turn off the front panel display of the PAV to facilitate listening to music or watching movies in a darkened room without visual distractions. The PAV’s display will turn back on momentarily when adjusting the unit’s operation in order to acknowledge the changes. The display may be returned to its normal, always-on mode by pressing the display button again.

input: pressing this button temporarily places the volume +/– keys in input level mode, allowing you to fine-tune the input sen- sitivity of each particular input for proper Pro Logic calibration. This control also allows you to adjust the relative volumes of the various source components to avoid abrupt changes in volume when switching between inputs.

mute: pressing this button duplicates the function of the mute button on the front panel, reducing the volume of the main sys- tem by a user-selectable amount.

volume +/–: these buttons normally adjust the overall system vol- ume, although they are also used in conjunction with other but- tons and/or menu items to vary most of the available system ad- justments.
