unit's rating limit is set to 8, it will play all discs. If the player's rating limit is

set below 8, only discs with a lower or equal parental level will play.

For example if the player is set to 5, only discs with parental control ratings

of 5,4,3,2, & 1 will play. Toplay a higher rated disc you must change the

unit's rating to a higher numben

When alternative scenes with lower rating are included, the player will play the highest rated scene that the

parental setting allows. For example, consider a disc which is generally suitable for most audiences, and is

rated as level 2 for most part. However, in the middle there are also scenes rated at 5 & 7 [not suitable for

The meaning of the levels 1to 8varies depending upon the country and the type of content of the disc.

Some films do not have parental oontroI assigned and will play irrespective of the player setting.

PPe Logic Merle

The additional flexibility of Pro Logic tt allows it to be tailored for specific

applications. Five standard modes are available:

Pro Logic

Virtual

Music

Movie

Matrix

it offers users the robust surround processing of the original

Pro Logic.

it's usually used when Pro Logic tI is connected to avirtual

process for speaker use.

it's recommended as the standard mode for auSosound music

systems [without video}, and is optional for AiV systems.

tt can be called simply "Pro Logic It'. It has stereo surround

channels and no surround filter, unlike Pro Logic which has a

mono surround channels and a 7KHz surround filter. Movie

mode is the standard required for all AA! systems.

tt the same as the Music mode except that the directional

enhancement logic is turned off. It may be used to enhance

mono signals by making them seem "larger".

PPc Legit Control

PL ti Control lets you to customize the Pro Logic It Music Mode Sound

Effect. The option is available only when the player is in Music Mode.

Dimension

A simple control that alters the ratio of L_R to L-R for She two-

channel input signals. It allows the user to gradually adjust the

soundfield either towards the front or towards She rean tf a

recording is too spacious or strong from the surrounds, it can be

adjusted "forward" to get a better balance. Likewise, if a stereo

recording is somewhat too "mono" or "narrow" sounding, iScan be

adjusted toward She rear So get a more enveloping, immersing

resu!S.

Panorama

Extends the front stereo image to include the surround

speakers for an exciting "wraparound" effect with side-wall

imaging.

Center Width Centrem

With Pro Logic decoding, dominant center signals can come

only from the center speaker, if no center speaker is present,

the decoder splits the center signals equally to the left and

right speakers to create a "phantom" center image. The

Center Width control allows variable adjustment of the

center image so it may be heard only from the center

speaker; only from the left/right speakers as a phantom

image; or from all three front speakers to varying degrees.

tt's recommended to set the control to use the position 3

values for the Music mode. This will also help distinguish the

Music mode from the Movie mode, which automatically

presets teh Center-width control to position O.
