USING THE S170i
FRONT PANEL OPERATIONS
It is possible to perform every function directly from the S170i Preamplifier’s front panel, without the HTR
2 remote controller.
•To change input sources or listening modes, press AUDIO or Video or MODE; the VOLUME (SETUP)
knob will now cycle, bi-directionally, through all audio-video or audio-only sources, or listening modes.
The source or mode names appear on the OSD as well as the front-panel readout. After five seconds
of inactivity, the display and the knob will return to their normal functions.
•Press TAPE MONITOR to hear the component or signal connected to the rear-panel TAPE MONITOR
IN/OUT jacks; press Tape MONITOR again to bypass the tape monitor loop. <Tape Monitor On> and
<Tape Monitor Off> appears on the OSD.
•To adjust the treble, press TONE once and use the VOLUME (SETUP) knob to raise or lower the setting;
press TONE a second time to adjust bass; the new tone settings appear on both the OSD and the front-
panel readout. Press TONE a third time to return the readout and VOLUME (SETUP) knob to their
normal functions.
•Press BRIGHTNESS once to dim the front-panel readout, press the key again to return the readout to
its normal brightness.
The SPEAKERS key accesses the same functions as the <Speaker setup> OSD menu (see Speaker
Setup, above). The OSD will not appear, but the necessary information will display on the front-panel
readout. Each subsequent press of SPEAKERS moves through Main, Center, Surround, Back, and
Subwoofer options; while any is selected the VOLUME (SETUP) knob cycles bi-directionally through the
available options, such as “No/Small/Large” for the Center position. Press the SPEAKERS key one more
time (beyond Subwoofer) to return the readout and knob to their normal functions.
The DELAY key works similarly, adjusting channel-delays for each channel present. See the paragraph
directly above.
The LEVELS key works similarly, adjusting channel-levels for each channel present. See the paragraphs
directly above.
•You can adjust the remote room’s audio using the MULTISOURCE key. Press MULTISOURCE once to
adjust remote-room volume using the VOLUME (SETUP) knob; press MULTISOURCE a second time to
cycle the source sent to the REMOTE ROOM rear-panel jacks through the audio-only sources using the
VOLUME (SETUP) knob, bi-directionally. Press MULTISOURCE a third time to return the readout and
knob to their normal functions; the normal functions will also return automatically after five seconds
of inactivity.
