I-200 Operations Manual
8
To set the I-200 surround sound mode, press the SURR(OUND) button and select the
input (from the menu) that you have dedicated for the use of your surround sound processor.
14. EXT
Your I-200 remote control may also be used to control other ADVANTAGE products
through the use of the external data communication jacks located on the rear of the unit.
When connected via the data bus, each unit will automatically detect the others presence.
Press EXT(ERNAL DATA BUS) to step through the different units in the data chain and stop
at the one you wish to control; then press the CMD(COMMAND) button.
15. CMD
The CMD(COMMAND) button gives the user access to the different commands and
information available on the selected unit. To change a setting (power amplifier standby, for
example), press the VOL+ or VOL-buttons.
16. MUTE
If you wish to temporarily make the I-200 silent, press the MUTE button (this action
will not change the volume level). To return to listening, simply press the MUTE or VOL+
buttons.
To compensate for varying output levels of source equipment ( CD, DAC, video, etc.), the I-
200 allows the user to chance the input sensitivity of the two balanced and five unbalanced
inputs, so that volume adjustment is not necessary when switching between inputs.
To change he input level, select the input you wish to change, then step through the menu by
pressing DISPLAY until “Input level” is shown in the display window. To adjust input
sensitivity, simply press VOL+ to increase the input level or VOL -to decrease the input level.
When set to the desired level, press DISPLAY again to exit the menu. The new level will now
be stored in memory.
If you do not wish to use this feature, it is best to leave the input levels at their factory preset
level of “0”.
The I-200 is equipped with a memory module which will remember all of the
settings you have edited, allowing automatic access to the same settings
(volume, input selection, alias names, etc.) that you last used before placing
the unit into standby mode.
The I-200 is also equipped with a microprocessor that monitors the status of
the unit for temperature, DC offsets, etc.. If a problem occurs, the I-200 will
automatically enter the “protection mode”. This mode is indicated in the
display as “prot circ” activated. If activation of the protection circuit occurs,
turn the amplifier off by use of the main power switch located on the back
panel. Leave the unit turned off for one half (1/2) hour and then turn it on
again. If the display still shows “protection mode” engaged, bring the amplifier
to your nearest authorized ADVANTAGE service center.
