Audio
The audio parameter defines which audio connection (or connec-
tions) you want to associate with this particular input. There are
some cases in which you may need more than a single audio
connection from a source component to the Nº40. You can asso-
ciate up to three input connectors with a single input definition. In
so doing, you also establish the priority of connection, with the
first input listed having the highest priority, followed by the
second, followed again by the third.
You can also assign a function key or toolbar to a direct command
that will force the Nº40 to migrate to the next type of input and
suspend the automatic migration. Automigration will resume when
the input is changed, the Nº40 is put in standby, or the recall
button is pressed.
Since there are so many connectors on the rear panel of the Nº40, it
could be difficult for some people to remember “which wire was
connected where.” We have done several things to make this
simpler for you.
First, you will find rear panel hookup charts at the back of this
manual, which we suggest you copy and use when hooking up the
system. Take notes as to what source components are connected to
which input connectors. These notes will be quite helpful later,
when you are in the Inputs menu.
Second, we have provided a graphical user interface (GUI) for
defining these connections, one that depicts the rear panel of the
processor in question. For many people, this visual depiction of the
rear panel is what they need to sort things out.
Lastly, we also specify input connectors verbally by a simple “slot &
connector” system. The slot numbers are engraved along the edge
of the top cover of each processor, and the connectors are
numbered from top to bottom on each card. Thus “slot 3,
connector 4” is the fourth connector down on the card sitting in
the third slot from the left, as seen from the rear of the unit.
To specify the particular connector(s) you wish associated with an
input:
1. Select the audio menu item
2. Press enter (or right arrow, on the remote). You will see a list of
three possible audio inputs
