Setup
Input Trim Level
Various components can have slightly different volume
levels. This could result in the constant need to readjust the
C200 volume control when switching between different
Listen Program Sources. A volume trim feature on the
C200 allows you to adjust or trim the levels of the various
inputs so that they have the same relative volume. The
Phono1 Input is used in the example below.
Note: The possible range of adjustment in volume level is ±
12dB. The Record Output Levels are uneffected by any
changes in the Trim Settings. Any TRIM adjustments
made are retained in permanent memory and can be
changed only by performing a new TRIM procedure.
1. Rotate the LISTEN Switch Knob to select the Phono1
Input and adjust the VOLUME Control to the desired
listening level.
2. Press the SETUP Push-button to access the Setup
Mode.
3. The Front Panel Alphanumeric Display will change
and the Red LED above the SETUP Push-button will
turn On.
4. Rotate the BALANCE Control Knob until the words
TRIM 00 PH1 appears. Refer to figure 9.
5. Rotate the VOLUME Control until the desired volume
level is achieved. Refer to figures 10 and 11. Figure 10
indicates a +3dB increase in the PH1 Level and figure
11 has a -5dB decrease in level.
Note: Choose a Input Source that is frequently listened to
as the reference. The reference Input Source should
be set to a Trim Level of 00.
6. Rotate the LISTEN Switch Knob until the next desired
Input Source Name is displayed.
7. Repeat steps 3 and 4 until all the Inputs with sources
connected to the C200 have the same relative volume
levels when switching between them.
8. Press the SETUP Push-button to exit the Setup Mode.
Note: Whenever a program source selected has trimmed
volume levels, the Front Panel Display Volume

when changing between Input Sources to reflect the
differences in trim levels. The Trim Level can also

may be used to record your level trim adjustments
for the various inputs.
Input Selection
The C200 allows the turning off of unused Input Sources.
This prevents having to go through all the eight positions
on the LISTEN and RECORD Switches when there may
only be four Input Sources Connected to the C200. The
Phono 1 Input is used in the example below.
Note: If all the Input Sources have been turned Off and the
C200 is no longer in the Setup Mode, the Front Panel
Display will Indicate NO SOURCE. Two Input Positions
on the C200 have a Rear Panel Slide Switch associated
with them. This allows selection of three additional
component sources to be connected, however only eight
possible Input Sources can be selected from at any one
time.
1. Rotate the LISTEN Switch Knob to select the Phono1
Tuner Input.
2. Press the SETUP Push-button to access the Setup
Mode.
3. Rotate the BALANCE Control Knob until the words
INPUT ON PH1 appears. Refer to figure 12.
4. Rotate the LISTEN Switch Knob until the desired In-
put Source Name that you want to turn Off is dis-
played.
