, or between –50 and –10 decibels in 10-decibel increments.

c. Maximum Volume

This setting allows you to set the maximum volume that can be output with the MASTER VOLUME dial.

d. Power On Volume

For the absolute volume display method, this can be set between 0 and 100. For the relative volume display method, this can be set to ∞,or between –81 and +18 decibels.
