Selecting a source

If you are using the 808.2i Signature Reference CD

Player as a controller you can connect up to 11 other

sources to it, and select them from the front panel or

remote.

The CD player provides the following 12 sources:

CD, Radio, DVD, Aux, Disc, Tape, TV, Cable, Sat,

VCR1, VCR2, and Game.

The CD source usually corresponds to the internal

drive.

The input associated with each of the other sources

depends on how the CD player has been set up; for

more information refer to the

.

Your installer may have customised the labels

displayed for each source to suit your other

equipment.

display shows the source you want, or press the

appropriate source key on the remote; eg CD.
