Classe Audio SSP-800/CT-SSP Menu On/Off Button, Touchscreen, Audio Mute Control, IR window

•LED flashes (at power-up) – the SSP is in the process of power- up initialization.

•LED Off – the SSP is powered on, fully operational, and the display active.

•LED flashes rapidly (after power-up) – the AC mains voltage is out of range.

2Menu On/Off Button

Press once to call up the main page of the menu system, which replaces the normal front page or Home page of the Touchscreen and OSD (On-Screen

Display). Press the Menu button again to revert to the Home page.

The menu system gives you control over operational details including: system setup options, various display options (including the language used by the menu system), and custom installation capabilities so that the SSP integrates smoothly into the most complex systems. For more information, see the Menu System later in this manual.

3Touchscreen

The front panel touchscreen has two main functions:

•Navigation of the SSP menus and controls by simply touching the screen to make your selections.

•Viewing incoming video from the selected source.

4Audio Mute Control

The Mute button reduces the SSP volume by a pre-determined amount. Pressing it a second time restores the volume to its previous level. This behavior can be easily customized for very specific user requirements. (See the section on Volume Setup for more information.)

NOTE: If you increase the volume using either the front panel volume knob or the remote control while Mute is engaged, the mute control disengages, and audio adjustments are executed starting from the muted level. This is a safety measure to prevent accidentally restoring the volume at unexpectedly high levels.

5IR window

The location of the IR (infrared) sensor for the remote control is behind this window. In most cases, there must be a clear path between the IR window and the remote control in order for the SSP to acknowledge the remote control commands.

If the IR window is not in view, for example if it’s placed in a cabinet or closet, then the rear panel IR input can be utilized for remote control use. For more details about this option, see the IR input description in the Rear Panel section found later in this manual.

In addition to receiving IR commands, the SSP can also transmit IR commands to third-party learning remote controls. For more details about this option, refer to the Teach IR description in the Menu Tree section found later in this manual.
