- Madrigal Audio Laboratories Stereo Amplifier User Manual

Five different volume settings may be stored and recalled directly, without

having to ramp through the intervening volume settings. These favorite vol-

umes may be changed and saved in the usual way; when enter is pressed,

it will both save the change and fire the command for that particular favor-

ite volume.

6 TO LEARN OTHER SPECIAL COMMANDS, SELECT “SPECIAL” ON THE

TEACH REMOTE MENU

Finally, the AVP2 provides several special commands that offer home enter-

tainment enthusiasts and home automation designers more specialized con-

trol over their systems.

SUB ON/OFF TOGGLE

PRESS MUTE TO TEACH

Control trigger 1&2 on and control trigger 1&2 off make it possible to con-

trol one or both of the remote turn-on trigger outputs on the rear panel of

the Audio Video Preamplifier independently of the system itself. For ex-

ample, should you decide to use one of these trigger outputs to control am-

plifiers in the remote zone rather than the local amplifiers, learning these IR

commands would allow you to turn the remote amplifiers on and off (even

from across the house) without affecting the operational status of the main

home theater.

The sub on/off toggle feature will toggle between the configuration estab-

lished during initial setup and using the front three loudspeakers full-range,

without any help from the subwoofer(s). (Specifically, it turns off the cross-

over and the subwoofer output when sub/crossover off is selected.) This fea-

ture may be used to compare the performance of the system configured

with and without the subwoofer(s). (Note that pressing recall will always

return the system to its calibrated setup configuration, regardless of its cur-

rent status.)
