2Menu button

Pressing the front panel Menu button will call up the main menu system, replacing the normal operational menu and status display in the LCD touchscreen.

3LCD touchscreen

Much of your interaction with the CAP-2100 will be with the LCD touchscreen (and the CAP-2100’s supplied remote control). It will usually display the various input selection buttons you would use in day-to-day operation, along with access to the tape button.

By pressing the Menu button, you can also call up the main menu system of the CAP-2100, which gives you control over many of the operational details of the integrated amplifier, including system setup options, various display options (including the language in which the menu system itself displays), and several custom-installation capabilities that allow superior integration of the CAP-2100 into complex systems.

For more information, see the section The Menu System later in this manual.

4Mute button

The front panel Mute button reduces the volume of the integrated amplifier to zero at the touch of a button. Pressing the button a second time restores the volume to its previous setting.

However, if you increase the volume manually (using either the volume knob or the remote control) while the Mute button is engaged, the mute control will disengage and the volume will be set to zero. This approach is a safety measure, to avoid situations in which the volume might be adjusted up while muted, only to then have the system un-muted to an unexpectedly high volume.

5IR window

The infrared (IR) receiver and transmitter are located behind this window. Ordinarily, your Classé CAP-2100 must be able to “see” the remote control from this window in order to respond to remote control commands.

If your integrated amplifier will be located behind closed doors, or for any other reason will not be able to “see” the remote control during normal operation, you may use the rear panel IR input and output mini-jacks and an IR repeater system to solve the problem. For more information about using an infrared repeater system to route signals to and from the CAP-2100, refer to the section Rear Panel later in this manual, or contact your local Classé dealer.
