%Speaker/Channel Input Indicators: These indi- cators are multipurpose, indicating both the speaker type selected for each channel and the incoming data- signal configuration. The left, center, right, right surround and left surround speaker indicators light as a single outline around the speaker position indicator when a “small” speaker is selected and as a larger icon with three connected boxes when “large” speakers are selected. When only the speaker position letters appear, no speaker has been assigned that position. (See page 24 for more information on configuring speakers.) The letters inside each box also indicate the active input channels. For standard analog inputs, only the L and R will light, indicating a stereo input.

When the letters flash, the digital input has been interrupted and an UNLOCK message may appear in the Lower Display Line &. (See page 34 for more information on the Channel Indicators.)

^Upper Display Line: Depending on the unit’s status, a variety of messages will appear here. In normal operation, this line will show the current input source and identify whether an analog or digital input is in use. When the tuner is selected as the input, this line will identify the station as AM or FM and show the frequency and preset number, if any.

&Lower Display Line: Depending on the unit’s status, a variety of messages will appear here. In nor- mal operation, the current surround mode will appear on this line.
