Power Up Volume

This allows you to set the PRE- SET volume level mentioned above. You might want to set it to a low level to avoid any sur- prises upon turn-on, especially if other users like loud music.

Max Volume

The volume can be set to not exceed a certain level. This is useful if you have sensitive speakers, sensitive neighbors, or you would rather not have others play your system too loud.

Auto ON

When this is ON, the TGP-5 will automatically switch to the next input which starts to play. For example, if you turn on your CD player and press Play, the TGP- 5 will switch to CD. When you turn on your VCR and press Play, it will select the VCR input.

You must set FULL AUTO to ON in the INPUT menu, for each input you want to use

These settings are like those de- scribed for the Main Zone. In addition, the entire Zone 2 can be enabled

or disabled, and the stereo balance adjusted with this menu.

Zone 2 is set "disabled" from the factory, so you should

use this menu to enable Zone 2 when you are ready to use it.

The Power Up Volume has three options: PRESET, LAST and FIXED. The FIXED option allows you to set the Zone 2 to a fixed volume, not adjustable with the remote. PRESET and LAST are as described for the Main Zone.

OSD popup can be turned on or off with this menu.

PowerUp Source

This sets the input source which the TGP-5 will then always select whenever the TGP-5 is turned on.

Power Up Volume Mode This lets you choose the vol- ume level the TGP-5 reaches when it is turned on. It ranges from 0 minimum to 100 maxi- mum. You can select from a PRESET level, set below (the power-up volume), or it can play at the LAST level it was playing before it was turned off. The TGP-5 will always turn on at the level set here, but it can

with this fully automatic feature. (See page 34, at the bottom of the last column.)

If the TGP-5 is turned off while the Auto mode is engaged, it will turn on and select an input whenever an input becomes active. For example, if you turn on your CD player and press Play, the TGP-5 will turn on and select the CD input.

We recommend that you turn off this feature if you are se- lecting the inputs manually, or recording.
