mode, before detecting the Dolby Digital signal.

• Note that auto-switching can occur only with digital signals. If the current input channel is set to

ANALOG

, auto-detection and auto-switching will not occur.

• Note that RF is not a digital signal. It is a radio frequency. Therefore, Dolby Digital laser disks cannot be

auto- detected.

input jacks are provided for inputs

only, therefore

selection is only available on inputs

and

Since Dolby Digital is only a digital and/or RF format,

ANALOG

selection is not allowed using the

A-D

button

unless it is not the ‘stored’ mode, in which case pressing the

A-D

button will select the analog inputs for the

current input channel. Note that the lower right corner of the LCD will read

DIGITAL

, indicating which

input jack type is selected.

DTS

: (Optional) Selecting

DTS

will decode a Digital Theater Systems encoded signal according to the

DTS

specification which consists of up to 5 plus 1 discrete channels of digital data for a total of 6 separate audio

channels.

If the Casablanca detects a DTS signal on the current channel, the

A-D

selection is

DIGITAL

, and the

MODE

not

set to

DTS

, the Casablanca will display the following message on both the LCD and video monitor:

**RECEIVING DTS SIGNAL**

CHANGING MODE TO DTS

and display

DTS

as the current mode. However, this is not stored and therefore approximately 15 seconds

after the Casablanca ceases to receive this signal, the

MODE

will revert back to the previous mode, before

detecting the DTS signal.

STEREO

: Left and Right input signals are sent to the Left and Right front speakers, which if crossed over,

will produce a

SUB

channel. If the input signal is analog, it is routed through an analog to digital converter

prior to being sent to the processor. The

and crossover effects are active on all channels in this mode.

Figure 7 - Front Panel Display of the MODE Menu - Second Page

Each of the 6 modes shown in figure 7 are described below.

Analog Direct (

ANLG DRCT

): This mode takes the selected analog input and routes it directly to the main

Left/Right outputs via the volume controls. Since there is no surround processing in Analog Direct, the sub

woofer, EQ, phantom center channel, and crossover effects are not available. Note: If these effects are

desired, use the

STEREO

mode. The Analog Direct mode accepts an analog input only. Therefore,

ANALOG

is displayed in the LCD above the

A-D

button at all times when in this mode, thus deactivating the

A-D

button.

Analog Matrix (

ANLG MATX

): The signal routing in this mode is the same as Analog Direct (

ANLG DRCT

(left & right analog input signals routed directly to the main outputs via the volume controls), and at the same

time, the input signal is routed through an analog to digital converter in order to derive the other channels,
