A/V PRESETS

The M15 HD’s simple but powerfully flexible system of ‘Presets’ allows you
to customize virtually every aspect of your audio-video playback, and recall
them with a single key-press. The parameters ‘Listening Mode’, ‘DSP Options’,
‘Tone Controls’ and ‘Picture Controls’ accessible via the ‘Main Menu’ together
with ‘Speaker Setup and ‘Display Setup’ configurable through ‘Setup Menu’
are stored together as a Single Preset.

You might create one Preset optimized for pop music and another for classical.
One more Preset can be set up to recall each family member’s favorite setting
or one for fully cinematic home-theater playback and yet another one for late-
night movies, with each Preset fine-tuned to a particular scenario or preference.

CREATING PRESETS

Creating a Preset consists simply of storing a complete set of the
parameters set forth in the ‘Listening Mode,’ ‘DSP Options’, ‘Tone Controls’
and ‘Picture Controls’ accessible via the ‘Main Menu’ together with ‘Speaker
Setup and ‘Display Setup’ configurable through ‘Setup Menu.’
Scroll to ‘A/V Presets’ using the

keys to save a collection of said

parameter settings to a Preset. Select a Preset number and by a
combination of pressing the

keys, you can selectively include in

the particular Preset any of the above-mentioned parameter settings by
choosing ‘Yes’. If you decide not to include in the particular Preset a certain
parameter setting, select ‘No’.

Now in order to save the settings chosen for the particular Preset number,
scroll down to ‘Save Current Setup to Preset’ and press the key. If you
chose to load instead the default settings, scroll down to ‘Load Defaults to
Preset’ and press the key to restore the default settings.

In addition to the parameter settings, the Preset label itself can be assigned a
new name. This new Name will be shown in the VFD as well as on the OSD.

To rename the Preset label, scroll to ‘Name’ and press to go the character.
Then, press

to pick and select through the alphanumeric selections.

Press

to move to the next character or back to the previous character

and at the same time save the changes done on the current character.

NOTE

The selected Preset remains in force until you select a different Preset.
