BLower Display Line: Depending on the unit's status, a variety of messages will appear here. In normal operation, the current surround mode name will appear on this line.

COSD Indicator: When the OSD system is in use, this indicator lights to remind you that the other indicators in this display do not function when the On Screen Display is being used.

DMultiroom Indicator: This indicator lights when the multiroom system is active. Note that it will remain lit when the multiroom system is in use even though the main room system is in the Standby mode and all other indicators are dark. (See page 41 for more information on the Multiroom system.)

ESpeaker/Channel Input Indicators: These indicators are multipurpose, indicating either the speaker type selected for each channel or the incoming data-signal configuration. The left, cen- ter, right, right surround, left surround, right back surround and left back surround speaker indica- tors are composed of three boxes, while the sub- woofer is a single box. The center box lights when a “Small” speaker is selected, and the two outer boxes light when “Large” speakers are selected. When none of the boxes are lit for the center, sur- round or subwoofer channels, no speaker has been selected for that position. (See page 22 for more information on configuring speakers.) The letters inside each of the center boxes display active input channels. For standard analog inputs, only the L and R will light, indicating a stereo input. When a digital source is playing, the indica- tors will light to display the channels begin received at the digital input. When the letters flash, the digital input has been interrupted. (See pages 24 and 36 for more information on the Channel Indicators).
