(3) BYPASS MODE: The Bypass Mode allows the CONTINUUM to be
installed
in a home theater or surround sound system for optimal play-
back of
stereo music sources when the multi-channel system is not
in use.
Pressing this button will allow a multi-channel processor to
bypass the amplifer functions of the CONTINUUM, with the volume
controlled only by the external processor. The indicator light below the
BYPASS button will illuminate blue to show that the Bypass function
is active.
NOTE: Do not connect a source component to the BYPASS INPUTS if it does not have
its own volume control. The volume control of the CONTINUUM Integrated Amplier is
inactive when Bypass Mode is selected.
(4) PHASE: Pressing this button will invert the phase of both channels
of the selected input and illuminate the yellow indicator light below
the PHASE button. Pressing this button again will turn off the light and
return the phase to uninverted polarity.
(5) MUTE MODE: Pressing the MUTE button will mute the speaker and
line outputs of the CONTINUUM and illuminate the red indicator light
below
the MUTE button. Pressing this button again will turn off the light
and restore the output of the amplifier to the previous volume setting.
To avoid spurious noises and possible damage to other system
components, the amplifier should be muted when connecting or
disconnecting any rear panel connections.
(6) VOLUME DISPLAY: This display shows the current volume of the
selected input numerically, from 00.0 to 99.5, in 0.5 dB increments.
If desired, the volume display can be configured to turn off 5 seconds
after receiving any command from the front panel or the Remote Trans-
mitter. Please contact your dealer about this function. The volume display
also contains the infrared (IR) receiver for receiving remote commands.
(7) VOLUME CONTROL: Rotation of the volume control knob clockwise
will increase the output level of the CONTINUUM. Rotation of the knob
coun
ter-clockwise will decrease the output level. The CONTINUUM
features a
dual-range volume control system: rotating the volume
knob slowly will cause the volume to increase or decrease in small,
precise steps. Rotating the knob abruptly will result in large, immediate
changes to the output level.
NOTE: When the volume control is set to 85.5, the amplier is set for unity (0 dB) gain
from any input to any line output.
