CHAPTER 1

Front Panel Features

5. Volume

Rotate this manual control clock- wise to increase the volume. The dB level will appear in the front panel display. Note that the control knob does not rotate when the remote is used. When turning on a new source, make sure the level is low, such as -80 dB and increase it slowly. The dB display becomes less negative as the volume increases.

Note: When the TGP-5 is turned on, it has a deliberately slow and smooth volume ramp from silence, up to the level that was set when the unit was last turned off. It can also be set to come up to a preset volume you can select, rather than the previous volume.

6. Tuner Controls

AM/FM

This button toggles between the AM or FM band. Press and hold it to engage a scan of the station presets. Press it again to stop the scan.

MEMORY

Use this to store the current station as an easily-recalled preset.

UP/DOWN

Switch to stations above or below the frequency of the current station. If repeatedly pressed, the tuner will move up or down one frequency step each time. If held down for a second or more, the tuner will automatically keep tuning sta- tions. Press UP or DOWN once again to stop when it reaches a station you like.

Tuning example:

1.Navigate to your favorite rock- a-billy-surfing-hip-hop-classics station with the UP/DOWN buttons.

2.Press MEMORY once. The preset choice will go to the next available one.

3.Within 5 seconds, press MEMORY again to save the current frequency as a preset, or else use the UP/DOWN buttons to find another preset number, then press MEMORY to save it.

4.The UP/DOWN buttons usually tune the frequency but when loading the presets, they navi- gate the presets.

7.Tone Controls

To change the tone, first press BASS or TREBLE and then press UP or DOWN to suit your taste. The display will show the change in dB level for reference. The range for both BASS and TREBLE is +/- 10 dB in steps of 1 dB.

Note: The Tone controls do not affect the LFE channel, or the 8-Channel analog input

The unit returns to its normal display after a few moments of inactivity, and any level changes are retained.

The BASS and TREBLE levels can also be adjusted using the OSD TONE Menu and the remote control.
