1. Input name (Examples include CD1, DVD1, PH-1, VKD5, or any other

combination of up to four characters including the Latin, Cyrillic and Greek

alphabet as well as digits)

2. Balance adjustment – gain shifted Left or Right.

3. Volume offset relative to any other input (to compensate for gross

differences in various sources levels)

4. Phase: Inverting, Non-inverting or Last configuration

5. Stereo, Mono or Last configuration

6. Maximum allowable volume setting for a particular input. This is a convenient

safety feature in some instances.

7. Display mode. This allows the user to switch the volume display to operate in

any of the three modes: relative Counts, DBU (Decibels referenced to Unity

gain) or DBM (Decibels referenced to Maximum gain).

8. Fixed volume mode: this allows any input to be set with a preferred fixed

volume setting, and is usable, for example, in Audio/Video installations.

With this flexibility it is possible, for example, to set the CD input to be Stereo and

Non-Inverting, while the Phono input would be Mono and Inverting.

PROGRAMMING THE REX II

NOTE: It is important to note here that all the functions described

below are accessible either through the front panel controls or via the

VK-R3 remote control. Therefore, functions like BALANCE, PHASE,

MONO, etc. all can be performed by using the Function button on the

remote control in conjunction with the Volume Up/Down buttons.

BALANCE Adjustment.

Pressing the Function button once will invoke the Balance adjustment mode. When

in this mode, turn the volume control knob (or press the Volume Up/Down buttons

on the VK-R3 remote control) to set the balance to the desired position. An L or R

character will appear indicating that the balance is now shifted in the corresponding

direction.

Exiting the programming mode by

pressing and holding the Function button

will store this adjustment for the selected input.

The BALANCE adjustment for each selected input is also stored when switching to

another input while still in the BALANCE programming mode.

RELATIVE Volume adjustment.
