[. . . ] There is one page for audio jack mapping and one for the combined composite, S and multi format video jack mapping. Up to six audio and six video input jacks can be mapped to any one INPUT SELECT button, and the order that they are mapped determines the search order when pressing the A-D button. Press the SOURCE button (button # 2) once and the `Setup Audio Source' submenu, shown in figure 43, will be displayed. 60 Figure 43 - Front Panel Display of the SETUP/INP Page 2/SOURCE/AUD Sub Menu The default jack names are descriptive of the rear panel input jacks themselves. It is advisable to name all applicable audio and video input jacks before mapping them to a given INPUT SELECT button. The INPUT SELECT buttons can be set up with 2 theories in mind. The first and most commonly used is that each INPUT SELECT button will be assigned to one source device. Figure 15 on page 40 depicts this setup. The other is that each person in a household can use one or two INPUT SELECT button(s) for himself or herself, and have up to 6 source devices mapped to "their" INPUT SELECT button(s). This manual is written with the first theory in mind since that is the most commonly practiced. To map input jacks, first press the INPUT SELECT button that the input jacks are to be mapped to. Then press SETUP, INP, A-D, then SOURCE. To map the first audio input jack, press button # 1 and use the LEVEL UP/DOWN buttons to select the appropriate jack. If another input jack is to be assigned to the same INPUT SELECT button, press button # 2 and select the desired rear panel input jack using the LEVEL UP/DOWN buttons. Continue with this method for up to 6 input jacks per Input Select button. An example of this use is for a Laserdisc/DVD/CD transport where the first jack to be assigned could be the RF-1 jack, the second could be the COAXIAL 1 input jack. In this example, when an LD is being played, the user would press the INPUT SELECT button that is `assigned' to this transport. If RF-1 (or the name assigned to this input jack) is not displayed in the lower right hand corner of the VFD, press the A-D button until it is displayed. When a CD is to be played in this transport, press the A-D button once to display COAXIAL 1 (or the name assigned to this input jack) in the lower right hand corner of the VFD. The default MODE for this INPUT SELECT jack should be that which is desired for the playback of CD's, as when the Casablanca III detects either a Dolby Digital AC-3 RF or any 5. 1 data stream, it will automatically change the MODE to Dolby Digital or DTS. Note: It is important to note that when the Casablanca III auto detects a Dolby Digital or DTS signal and auto switches the mode, this mode is temporary and not stored. If the Casablanca III ceases to detect this signal (no lock), it will revert back to the previous (default) mode for the currently selected INPUT SELECT button, in approximately 2 seconds. Press SETUP 3 times then repeatedly press the A-D button to toggle between the input jacks for the currently selected INPUT SELECT button.
