Section 4.0 - The SSP-30 MKII Remote Control

The keys on the SSP-30 MKII remote control are laid out in an easy to use pattern. The keys have been set in groups according to their use. The first three rows, DIM through SUB , are a set of eight buttons with a variety of relatively unrelated tasks which, with the exception of STANDBY, you will probably use infrequently. The second section is made up of three rows beginning with CANCEL and ending with the single key \/. The seven keys are used during the Setup of the surround processor, so they also will be infrequently used. The five bottom rows, beginning with AV1 and ending with the VOLUME /\ key are the keys you will use most often. They include the keys used to directly access a Source, the MUTE and the VOLUME up and down keys, as well as ZONE.

The following is a list of the Remote Control Keys and their functions.

DIM Press this key once and the display dims by about 90%; a second press returns the display to its normal brightness.. Dim mode will continue indefinitely until the dim button is pressed again.

NOTE: The dim setting does not reset when put in STANDBY, though it will reset to bright if the rear on/off switch is cycled, or if the AC supply is interrupted.

STANDBY Pressing the STANDBY button causes the SSP-30 MKII to turn On if Off or Off if it is On. AC power must be supplied and the rear panel AC rocker switch beside the power cord must be in the on position. The “Standby” Mode turns off all outputs and blanks the display window. The 12 volt triggers are also for details) de-activated or activated depending on the trigger setting (see section 5.5 for details).

STATUS Pressing the STATUS key causes the SSP-30 MKII to display on the TV screen the setup for the currently selected Source. The displayed information includes the name of the input, the decode mode, the location and type of audio and video input selected.

NOTE: Similar information is always shown in the display window of the SSP-30

NOTE: These are Music Modes, and do not affect Dolby Digital or DTS.

The STEREO 96 Mode will only work with the Analog inputs. The signal will then be passed through the SSP-30 MKII’s A/D and sampled at 24/96 in stereo mode.

CAL Press the CAL key once you are in the level setup menu to initiate the white noise test signal.

COMP Press this key to reduce the dynamic range of the audio. Utilizing a process called dynamic compression, the processor can prevent loud passages from getting too much louder than the normal passages. Turning on this feature allows you to enjoy your movie or other program when you don’t want to disturb neighbors or family. Please Note that this function is only active in Dolby Digital and Stereo.
