B&K AVR515 - Manual (Page 45)

FRONT PANEL DISPLAY OPERATION
The front panel display is capable of displaying 16 characters. The first five characters identify the current
source input. The remaining 10 characters identify the the audio mode and the number of active speakers.
All changes to volume, input, audio mode, etc. will be displayed for a few seconds on the front panel. When
no changes are in progress, the front panel will display the input and surround mode. Some abbreviations are
necessary. The various abbreviations are as follows:
Display definitions:
4 = 4 Surround DTS = DTS DOLBY D = Dolby Digital
4B = 4 Back DTS ES DSC = DTS Discrete 6.1 DOLBY D EX = Dolby Digital Surround EX
5 = 5 Surround DTS ES MTX = DTS Matrix 6.1 PL2X = Dolby Pro Logic IIx
5B = 5 Back NEO6 = DTS NEO:6
SUR = Surround MU = Music Filter
MV = Movie Filter
Processor Status
Processor status will display after an input selec-
tion or any time by pressing the INFO or ENTER
button on the remote control. INFO will display
the status on both the OSD and front panel,
while ENTER will display status on the front
panel only. The info status will display status for
the source input selection, bitstream type, sampling rate, video type, audio mode, speaker selections, EQ
setting, and surround processing types. The video source type is very important if you are mixing component,
composite and S-video types. It will describe the video type the processor is using. The bitstream and
speaker channel information is particularly important with DVDs since they may or may not contain certain
soundtracks. When you initially start the DVD you may get a Dolby Digital (AC3) 2.0 soundtrack. To get the
best possible sound, you may have to use the DVD player's menu system to activate the Dolby Digital 5.1 or
DTS-ES multi-channel soundtracks. The last line will provide additional information about the surround or
cinema mode processing currently in use. If you need to call B&K regarding a problem with your receiver
be sure to note the status display before calling.
Note: Status display will scroll through each line of the display message on the front panel of the receiver.
The ENTER button will not trigger the OSD.
