Front Panel Controls & Indicators

7Mute Button: Press this button to temporarily reduce or silence the audio output. Press the button again, or change the volume level to return to normal operation. Note that when the Mute function is activated, the level at the Record Outputs £ and Remote Zone ª will remain uninterrupted. When Mute is engaged, a reminder message will appear in the on-screen display (see figures OSD-20 and OSD-21 on page 47) and the word Mute will replace the volume level indication in the Information Display !. The actual level for the system when the Mute function is engaged may be set through the System Options Menu (see page 40).

8Volume Control: Press these buttons to raise (+) or lower (–) the main system volume. Volume indications are provided through both the on-screen display (see figure OSD-19 on page 47) and the front panel Information Display !.

9Steering Logic Display: The indicators in this display provide a visual indication of where the 5.0 is directing signals for the various audio channels. It is normal for these indicators to flash during operation.

)Level Indicators: These two columns of LEDs provide a four-step display of the left- and right- channel-input level to the 5.0. Note that it is normal for these lights to flash on and off during oper- ation as they react to the changing level of your program material. If there is no movement in this display, it is a sign that the input level may need adjustment, or that there is a problem with the playback source or interconnect cables. Note that the input level may only be adjusted for analog audio sources, and if they constantly register at the “+10dB” or “Clip” markings, the input needs to be reduced. See page 38 for more information on adjusting the input levels.

!Information Display: This two-line display is your window into the status of the Citation 5.0. In normal operation, the display shows the input program number and source name in use on the top line, and the current surround mode and system volume level on the bottom line. When adjustments are being made for setup or re-configuration of the unit’s operating system or parameters, the two- line display will indicate the options and instructions needed to make the required choice.

@Remote Sensor: This area contains the sensor that receives commands from the 5.0’s infrared remote control. Make certain that cabinets, smoked glass doors or other objects that may interfere with the line of sight from the remote do not block it.
