33ENGLISHPlaying the input source31 2 5Input mode selection functionDifferent input modes can be selected for the different input sources.The selected input modes for the separate input sources are storedin the memory.q AUTO (All auto mode)In this mode, the types of signals being input to the digital andanalog input jacks for the selected input source are detected andthe program in the this unit’s surround decoder is selectedautomatically upon playback. This mode can be selected for allinput sources other than TUNER.The presence or absence of digital signals is detected, the signalsinput to the digital input jacks are identified and decoding andplayback are performed automatically in DTS, Dolby Digital orPCM (2 channel stereo) format. If no digital signal is being input,the analog input jacks are selected.Use this mode to play Dolby Digital signals.w PCM (exclusive PCM signal playback mode)Decoding and playback are only performed when PCM signals arebeing input.Note that noise may be generated when using this mode to playsignals other than PCM signals.e DTS (exclusive DTS signal playback mode)Decoding and playback are only performed when DTS signals arebeing input.r ANALOG (exclusive analog audio signal playback mode)The signals input to the analog input jacks are decoded andplayed.t EXT. IN (external decoder input jack selection mode)The signals being input to the external decoder input jacks areplayed without passing through the surround circuitry.NOTE:• Note that noise will be output when CDs or LDs recorded in DTSformat are played in the “PCM” (exclusive PCM signal playback) or“ANALOG” (exclusive analog audio signal playback) mode. Selectthe AUTO or DTS (exclusive DTS signal playback) mode whenplaying signals recorded in DTS from a laser disc player.Notes on playing a source encoded with DTS• Noise may be generated at the beginning of playback andwhile searching during DTS playback in the AUTO mode. Ifso, play in the DTS mode.• In some rare cases the noise may be generated when youpreform the operation to stop playback of a DTS-CD or DTS-LD.51321 Select the input source to be played.Example: CD(Main unit) (Remote control unit)2 Select the input mode.• Selecting the analog modePress the ANALOG button to switch to the analog input.(Remote control unit)• Selecting the external input (EXT. IN) modePress the EXT. IN (or the EXT. IN button on the remotecontrol unit) to switch the external input.(Main unit) (Remote control unit)• Selecting the AUTO, PCM and DTS modesThe mode switches as shown below each time the INPUTMODE button is pressed.AUTO PCM DTS(Main unit)(Main unit) (Remote control unit)
