5) Dolby Digital indicator
light: This light turns on
whenever a Dolby Digital signal
is detected at the SPDIF input of
the
DeskTop Theater 5.1. For
Dolby Digital 5.1 sound reproduc-
tion, make sure only this light is
illuminated.
6) Surround Mode: This button
cycles between Dolby Pro Logic
processing of the digital input,
then the analog input and no Pro
Logic processing.
7) Audio Mode: Use this button
to play just the left or right
channels of a stereo digital signal
(PCM from an audio CD, a Video
CD or a stereo signal from a DVD).
Use this when, for example, a
Video CD has different languages
on the left and right channels.
Repeated presses of the button
selects which channel is fed to
both the Left and Right front
speakers.
LL-Left channel programs to both
Left and Right front speakers.
RR-Right channel program to
both Left and Right front
speakers. See “Audio Mode
Selection”, page 12 for further
information about this feature.
The test sound will operate for three
complete cycles and then stop. You
can terminate the sound at any point
by pressing the Speaker Test button
again.
First use the test sound to verify
that each speaker is operating.
Then make sure the speakers are
positioned so that the test sound can
be clearly heard.
Finally, adjust the front panel level
controls for the center, subwoofer and
rear speakers. Adjust each control so
its speaker achieves a balanced output
level with the left and right satellites
(which provide a fixed “reference”
output level).
All Decoder Amplifier functions
except for the level controls are dis-
abled while the test sound is running.
The speaker level controls operate at
all times. If desired, you may adjust
these controls during program
material to fine-tune the balance.
9) Mute: Mutes all output from the
DeskTop Theater 5.1. Press the button
once to mute. Press a second time to
restore audio output.
The CMSS, Dolby, Audio and
Speaker Test buttons operate during
mute.

8) Speaker Test: Press this button
to start the “test sound” genera-
tor. Use this test sound to position
all the speakers and to balance
their relative output.
The test sound moves in
sequence from the left satellite,
the center speaker, the right
satellite, then to the right
surround satellite, left surround
satellite and the subwoofer. All of
the indicator lights will blink on
and off while the test sound
generator is in operation.
