DUAL MONO setting
The dual mono setting can only be used when listening to Dolby Digital discs that have dual mono software
encoded in them. Dual mono software usually is used to put two different soundtracks on one DVD. With this
setting you can choose which channel in the dual mono setting you want to listen to. Thus, it is useful for
soundtracks that have one language on one channel and a different language on the other. Remember this
setting is only applicable if you are using Dolby Digital software with dual mono and want to isolate one of the
channels therein. Otherwise, just ignore this function.
.
1 Turn the receiver ON.
2 Hold down the RETURN button for 3 or 4
seconds. The receiver will cycle through the
three different dual mono settings for as
long as you hold the button down.
Take your finger off the button when the mode that you want to
use is displayed.
The different settings are: DUAL ch1, where you only hear
channel 1; DUAL ch2, where you only hear channel 2; and DUAL
ch1/ch2, where you hear both channels, but independently from
different speakers.
The display will show dual mono for a while then revert to the
sound mode you are in but you will still be listening to dual mono.
The default setting is DUAL ch1.
