Pioneer VSX-C100 Input Signal Select, Resetting the System, Sleep Function, Using Other Functions

Input Signal Select

This button selects the type of input signal, ANALOG, DIGITAL or AUTO, sent to the receiver. You need to take special care to switch to the appropriate input when necessary. For example, the switch would have to be on DIGITAL to hear Dolby Digital or DTS surround sound material but it would have to be on analog to record from the ANALOG out jacks on the receiver. The default setting is AUTO which chooses digital over analog when both are available but goes with whatever is available if it is the only choice.

The SLEEP Function
