DISPLAY SETTINGS Menu
Brightness
Set the display Brightness to a comfortable level using the ◄ or ► buttons.
Display On/Off
This page is usually set to On.
When set to Off and the menu closes, the display will turn off after a few seconds. The
display will turn on briefly when a control setting is changed. The display will stay on if
the unit is not locked or is muted or while the menu is open.
GENERATOR Menu
Channel Check
A routine to test the system for swapped channels. A tone is output on the left channel
only while the display shows Left, then the right channel only while the display shows
Right. If these are the wrong way around, the left and right channels are swapped
somewhere in your system. This test is not affected by the Channel Swap menu page
setting.
Phase Check
A routine to test the system for phase reversals. Noise is output in phase on both
channels while the display shows In Phase. Press the Menu button, the noise on the
right channel is inverted while the display shows Out of Phase. The first burst should
produce a central image, the second burst should not. If these are the wrong way
around, one channel in your system is phase inverted. Press the Power button to stop
the test and return to the menu.
Burn In
A procedure to condition your system. The unit displays Burn In Caution! Loud, then
outputs modulated pink noise that ramps up slowly in level. Press any button to stop the
procedure.
!
Please ensure that the volume level is reasonable, as careless use of the Burn In feature
can damage your amplifiers and loudspeakers. dCS will not be liable for such damage.
