JBL ESC333 setup guide Adjustment

+/– buttons (11). Levels set in one mode will stay valid for all other modes and are not inde- pendent. Please note that the status-bar indicator (27) will not display unless Adjustment +/– buttons are pressed. And, while the status-bar indicator

(27)is on, channel indicators

(28)and LVL (29) will not be displayed. Also, if adjustments are done in a mode where a certain channel is not available, the adjustment step for that channel is skipped. For examp- le, in Phantom mode the center- channel level cannot be ad- justed since Phantom does not have a center channel. In stereo, neither the center nor the surround levels can be adjusted since Stereo does not feature surround speakers or a center speaker. A seventh press of the Level button will exit the ESC333 from its level- adjustment mode.
