Controls and Indicators

The Front Panel

1. POWER
Alternately puts the MC-1
into and out of standby. Turn-
ing the MC-1 off with this but-
ton (or with the remote) deac-
tivates the unit while leaving
power to the signal process-
ing circuitry to keep it at opti-
mum operating temperature.
Turning the MC-1 on with this
button (or the remote) will re-
store the previous operating
state.

2. Input Selection
Pressing any of these but-
tons (VCR, DVD, V-DISC,
TV, AUX, CD, TUNER,
TAPE) selects the input for
the main zone, and lights a
green LED. (Also turns the
MC-1 on from Standby.)

5. 2-CHANNEL
Engages the appropriate 2-
Channel effect, and lights the
green front panel LED.

6. MUTE
Attenuates the main audio
outputs, lights a red LED, and
displays a screen message
to indicate mute is engaged.
The attenuation level can be
set in the Setup: Output Lev-
els menu.

7. Display
A 2x20 backlit LCD displays
the result of user action and
the current status. This dis-
play can be turned off with the
remote control.

8. IR Receiver and LED
The IR receiver has an asso-
ciated activity LED that lights
green when valid IR signals
are received, and an LED
that lights red to indicate clip-
ping at the inputs. An IR input
jack is available on the rear
panel for receipt of industry-
standard hard-wired IR sig-
nals. The red LED remains
illuminated when the unit is
placed in standby.

9. VOLUME
Provides volume adjustment
of the main outputs. Screen
displays show a volume bar
and level in dB unless the
front panel display is turned
off with the remote control.

3. REC/ZONE 2
Press and hold to activate
Record/Zone 2 control with
the On/Off, Input Selector,
Volume and Mute buttons.

Some sources are blocked
because of the potential for
feedback loops. By default
these are TAPE and VCR. If
a blocked source is selected,
a message is displayed. This
source blocking can be
changed in the INPUT
CONFIG menu.
