2 Menu button
Pressing the front panel Menu button will call up the main menu system,
replacing the normal operational menu and status display in the LCD
touchscreen.
3 LCD touchscreen
Much of your interaction with the CAP-2100 will be with the LCD
touchscreen (and the CAP-2100’s supplied remote control). It will usually
display the various input selection buttons you would use in day-to-day
operation, along with access to the tape button.
By pressing the Menu button, you can also call up the main menu system
of the CAP-2100, which gives you control over many of the operational
details of the integrated amplifi er, including system setup options, various
display options (including the language in which the menu system itself
displays), and several custom-installation capabilities that allow superior
integration of the CAP-2100 into complex systems.
For more information, see the section e Menu System later in this
manual.
4 Mute button
e front panel Mute button reduces the volume of the integrated
amplifi er to zero at the touch of a button. Pressing the button a second
time restores the volume to its previous setting.
However, if you increase the volume manually (using either the volume
knob or the remote control) while the Mute button is engaged, the mute
control will disengage and the volume will be set to zero.  is approach
is a safety measure, to avoid situations in which the volume might be
adjusted up while muted, only to then have the system un-muted to an
unexpectedly high volume.
5 IR window
e infrared (IR) receiver and transmitter are located behind this
window. Ordinarily, your Classé CAP-2100 must be able to “see” the
remote control from this window in order to respond to remote control
commands.
If your integrated amplifi er will be located behind closed doors, or for any
other reason will not be able to “see” the remote control during normal
operation, you may use the rear panel IR input and output mini-jacks and
an IR repeater system to solve the problem. For more information about
using an infrared repeater system to route signals to and from the
CAP-2100, refer to the section Rear Panel later in this manual, or contact
your local Classé dealer.
