DVD DOLBY D
DATA FORMAT : AUTO
Auto is the Default setting for this option, and means that when the
unit detects the special code imbedded within certain data streams such
as Dolby Digital or DTS it will set itself to properly decode that type of
incoming signal.
3. Use the < or > buttons to select one of the Data Format options.
You can select either Dolby D(igital), DTS, or PCM (for Pro Logic II), as
the default format. If you do this, signals that are not in the selected format
won’t be recognized. Therefore, we recommend that you leave the system
in Auto Mode unless you wish to use the selected mode exclusively.
The Data Format menu will disappear automatically approximately 10
seconds after you make your selection.
Bypass Setting
When playing an analog input source you may bypass the PT-7000’s digital
processing system and listen to the source in “pure” two-channel stereo.
To change the PT-7000 to Stereo bypass mode:
1. Press the BYPASS button on the remote or the STEREO BYPASS
button on the front panel
The source signal will be passed through without any digital processing.
If the currently selected source input is digital (Coaxial or Optical),
the PT-7000 will automatically change to the analog input for that source
and the show the information on the Front Panel Display and OSD. An
example is shown below:
DVD BYPASS
ANALOG 00dB
