When you change a source you are not only changing
the input signal sources, but all of the other parameters
associated with the source profile. Thus, when a source
changes you may also be changing the surround mode,
effects parameters, channel balance and active channel
locations. When the 2.0 is first turned on, the source pro-
files are set to the defaults listed on page 6. To customize
the profile of a specific input source, follow the instruc-
tions shown on page 27 of the Manual.
When the input source profile is changed, the message in
the front panel
Information Display )
will change
and display the new source name, processing mode and
current volume level (Figure FPD-4). A message with the
source name and surround mode will also appear briefly
through the On-Screen Display System (Figure OSD-16).

If the source selected is the tuner, the front panel display
will first show the source name and mode (Figure FPD-
10), and will then switch to a readout of the frequency
being tuned, preset memory location, if any, and volume
level (Figure FPD-11). Selecting the Tuner when the on-
screen display is activated will also show the frequency
and preset memory location, if any (Figure OSD-17).

NOTE: While the switch from one input source
profile to another is usually instantaneous, a large
number of complex calculations are made by the 2.0’s
microprocessors to switch the surround processing
modes and other operating parameters. For that reason,
you may occasionally encounter a very slight delay
when pressing a new source button before the mode is
changed. This is normal and does not indicate any
problem with the unit.
