73M2 Key (Mode 2 Key)

Use these keys to select available processing modes (such as Dolby Digital, DTS, PLII Movie, THX, etc.) for incoming signals from a video or audio source.

The default mode for a signal is always stored in Mode 1. Use the Mode 1 key to select the default mode. All other modes that can be used for the same signal are automatically stored in Mode 2. Use the Mode 2 key to scroll through these other modes. The last mode dis- played in Mode 2 is the one selected. Based on the source signal, the Home Theater Standard 7.1 automatically selects the correct modes available for the signal.

74 Pro Logic II Key

Use this button to select the available Dolby Pro Logic II modes for Dolby Surround encoded material, including laser discs, videotapes, television broadcasts, and compact discs. The red LED illuminates when the Home Theater Standard 7.1 is in the Dolby Pro Logic II decoding mode.

This mode is selected automatically if Dolby Digital source material is encoded for Pro Logic. To turn off this mode, press the Pro Logic II key.

75 Pre Key (Preamp Pre Key)

See Assign Analog Audio Inputs, on page 45, for information on assigning the analog input to one of the device but- tons (DVD, LD, SAT, VCR, TV).
