1; DIGITAL: Lights up when the receiver is decoding signals recorded in the Dolby Digital format.

2; PRO LOGIC II: “PRO LOGIC” lights up when a 2-channel signal is applied with “DOLBY PL” or C.ST.EX A–C. “PRO LOGIC II” lights up when a 2-channel signal is set to “II MOVIE” or “II MUSIC”.

However, this indicator does not light if the center and surround speakers are set to “NO”, and “AUTO DEC” or “NORM. SURR.” is selected.

3DTS: Lights up when DTS signals are input.

4MPEG: Lights up when MPEG signals are input.

Note

Only the front 2 channels are compatible with MPEG format. Multi channel surround sound is downmixed and output from the front 2 channels.

5Tuner indicators: Light up when using the receiver to tune in radio stations, etc. See pages 23–24 for tuner operations.

6SLEEP: Lights up when sleep timer is activated.

7D.RANGE: Lights up when dynamic range compression is activated. See page 22 to adjust the dynamic range compression.

8COAX: Lights up when the source signal is a digital signal being input through the COAX terminal.

9OPT: Lights up when the source signal is a digital signal being input through the OPTICAL terminal.

0LFE: Lights up when the disc being played back contains the LFE (Low Frequency Effect) channel and when the sound of the LFE channel signal is actually being reproduced.

qa Playback channel indicators: The letters light up to indicate the channels being played back.

L (Front Left), R (Front Right), C (Center (monaural)), SL (Surround Left), SR (Surround Right), S (Surround (monaural or the surround components obtained by Pro Logic processing)), SW (Sub woofer)

The boxes around the letters light up to indicate the speakers used to playback the channels.
