•Like the STATUS button on the front panel of the C 1, the STATUS button on the Master remote and the INFO button on the SideKick can be pressed to show the current main-zone operating sta- tus (source, audio and video signal types, audio mode, and volume setting) on the C 1 controller’s front-panel display or on any video projector or monitor connected to the “OSD” video output jacks. The status information will be shown for 5 seconds. Status information will only be shown on the front-panel display if it is turned on in status mode or is in video-preview mode and “Superimpose” has been selected in Display Setup (page 34). This information will also appear on any TV set or pro- jector connected to the composite or S-Video “OSD” output jacks on the rear panel of the C 1.

programmed to help you find your favorite TV or satellite channels, can also be programmed for other favorite activi- ties of yours. These can be single commands or complex

macros (series of up to 190 commands) that handle a sequence of events with one push of a button. A FAV macro might, for example, turn on your video projector and satellite tuner, lower the screen, select the appropriate C 1 input, close the draperies, and dim your room lights.

•The MENU button, when any C1/C2 page is active, will bring up the Setup menus for the C 1; their uses will be covered in the next chapter.
