STATUS MENU PARAMETER DESCRIPTIONS

2.0 ENCODING

MATRIX, NONE

Indicates whether a matrix encoded source is detected. When the
parameter setting is MATRIX, a matrix encoded source is detected.
When the parameter setting is NONE, a matrix encoded source is
not detected.

AUD IN

HDMI, OPTICAL-1 to 6, COAX-1 to 6,

ANALOG, 5.1 ANLG (6-8)

Displays the audio input connector that is selected as the active
input.

AUDIO FMT

DD, DTS, PCM, ---

Displays the type of audio present at the selected active digital
audio input.

BIT RATE

32 to 640 kbps or 754 to 1509.7kbps

Indicates the rate at which the input signal is encoded. A higher bit rate
indicates that less compression was used during the encoding process.
Possible settings for Dolby Digital sources range from 32 to 640 kbps.
Possible settings for DTS(-ES) sources range from 754 to 1509.7kbps.

CENTER MIX LVL

-3.0dB, -4.5dB, -6.0dB

Indicates the relative level of the center channel that was used
during the mixing process.

CHANNELS

3/3.1, 3/2.1, 3/2, 3/1, 2/2, 2/1, 2/0, 1/0

Indicates the number of channels present in the input source. The
first digit indicates the number of front channels present. The digit
after the slash indicates the number of surround channels present.
The digit after the decimal point indicates the presence of LFE (low
frequency effects) information.

Possible settings for Dolby Digital input sources include 3/2.1, 3/2,
3/1, 2/2, 2/1, 2/0 and 1/0. Current settings for DTS-ES input
sources include 3/3.1 and 3/2.1.

DIALOG OFFSET

-27 to +4dB

Indicates the dialog normalization value applied to the input signal.
Dolby Digital input sources reproduce dialog at 27 decibels below
full-scale (-27dBFS). When the dialog normalization value of the
incoming signal is higher or lower, the DIALOG OFFSET parameter
indicates the amount of adjustment the SDP-40HD makes to
normalize dialog to -27dBFS.

ES ENCODING

DISCRETE, MATRIX, OFF

Indicates whether or not a DTS-ES encoded source is detected.
When the parameter setting is DISCRETE, a discrete 6.1-channel
DTS-ES source is detected. When the parameter setting is MATRIX,
a 5.1-channel DTS-ES source with a surround encoded back
channel is detected. When the parameter setting is OFF, a standard
DTS source with no DTS-ES encoding is detected.

EX ENCODED

YES, NO

Indicates whether or not a Dolby Digital Surround EX encoded
source is detected. When the parameter setting is yes, a
5.1-channel Dolby Digital source recorded with Dolby Digital
Surround EX is detected. When the parameter setting is NO, a
