Determines the name of the selected input. Factory-default input
names correspond to their assigned stereo input connector. For
example, Input 1 is assigned to the input connectors labeled 1,
Input 2 is assigned to the input connectors labeled 2, and so on.
Custom input names should be based on the component with
which the input is associated. For example, DVD is a suitable
custom name for an input associated with a DVD player. Two
methods are available for customizing input names: the custom
names list and the character list.
Note
Linked Mark Levinson components must have recognizable input
names to share Link controls. For example, an input associated with a
Nº360S Digital Audio Processor should be named No360S. In some
cases, linked components will assign correct input names for other
linked associated components. Otherwise, use the custom names list
to enter the correct input name.
Custom Names List
The custom names list shown in Table 3-1 provides convenient
access to 26 custom input names that can be used for the most
common associated components, including other Mark Levinson
components. It also includes custom input names that deactivate
unused inputs, activate SSP mode, or activate EQ mode.
Table 3-1: Custom Names List.
Custom
Name Description
Input 1-8 Identifies the factory-default input name. This name can
be customized one character at a time using the character
list.
unused Removes the selected input from select knob and select
/ button scrolling.
SSP Activates SSP (surround sound processor) mode, which
configures the selected input for complete integration
with a multi-channel surround sound processor.
Caution!
Before activating SSP mode, set the associated surround
sound processor volume to a low level to prevent dan-
gerous signal levels from reaching the loudspeakers.
EQ Activates EQ (equalizer) mode, which configures the
selected input to route an input signal through a dedi-
cated equalizer using the record output connectors.
