Nº40 Media Console Menu System
The User Options Menu
The user options menu is where you can change many aspects of
the routine operation of the Nº40 Media Console to suit your indi-
vidual tastes. It also includes support for a certain amount of
custom-installation options that can vary depending on associated
equipment in the system. These menu items are explained below.
Volume Options
There are four volume-related preferences that can be set:
•Max volume
• Mute level
•Speed
•Display
Max volume
You can set a maximum volume allowed for your system to
minimize the opportunity for damage, either to your system or to
better relations with your neighbors. (This can be an especially
helpful menu item for those with children.)
Choose the maximum volume setting you would like to be able to
use and save the change (by pressing enter, as always). If you decide
to change it again, simply revisit this menu item and reset it.
Mute level
The magnitude of volume reduction introduced by pressing the
mute key is user-definable in increments of 1 dB, from -3 to -50
decibels, as well as volume off (total muting). The factory preset is
for -20 dB.
Speed
You can select either a fast, medium or slow response for the rate at
which the volume change accelerates when pressing and holding
the volume keys on the remote control.
In all cases, single taps of the volume keys result in single incre-
mental steps in volume. The volume speed chosen affects the
amount of time it takes to reach maximum speed while holding a
volume button down.
Display
You have the option of displaying your volume settings either of
two ways:
