Signature 2.0

Operation

When you have finished this adjustment, press the Surr button p again to enter the setting and return to nor- mal operation. Remember, the setting is temporary and will be canceled as soon as you switch to another mode or when the 2.0 is turned off.

Display Status Report

With the flexibility of the 2.0, you may occasionally want a quick reference as to what is playing through the system. The Display function allows you to view a report on the current system status at any time.

When the Display button x is pressed a status report will appear on your video monitor (Figure OSD-16) that shows the current input source, surround mode and volume level. If no Dolby Digital (AC-3) information is being received at the selected input, a “No AC-3 Info” message will be displayed, (Figure OSD-14), even when an analog surround mode is selected.

A “No Video Present” message will appear when there is no active video signal at the selected video input that accompanies this input source profile.

When the tuner is in use, pressing the Display button

xwill show the current station’s frequency and preset number, if any, in addition to the surround mode, volume level and input name (Figure OSD-24).

Pressing the Display button x when the tuner is in use will also change the front panel Information Display so that the input name (e.g., “Tuner”) and the current surround mode are shown (Figure FPD-10) instead of the standard tuner display of preset number and station frequency (Figure FPD-11).

IMPORTANT NOTE: Unlike most on-screen messages displayed by the 2.0, status screens that appear when the Display button x is pressed will not “time-out” and disappear after the time length entered during the setup procedure (see page 35). To remove this display from the screen you must press the Display button x again to return to normal operation.

When a Dolby Digital source is playing, additional information under the “AC-3 Info” banner will be displayed to provide some insight into the details of the source material (Figure OSD-26).
