Switching on and off and selecting a source

Digital Surround
Controller
When not playing, the digital surround controller should
be left in the standby state. This ensures that the
components of the digital surround controller operate at
maximum efficiency from the moment you start.
If you are not going to use the digital surround
controller for several days you should switch the unit off
completely at the rear panel, and disconnect it from the
AC power supply.
Sources
The digital surround controller provides the following 12
sources:
CD, Radio, DVD, Aux, Disc, Tape, TV, Cable, Sat,
VCR1, VCR2, and Game.
The input and DSP preset associated with each source
depends on how the digital surround controller has
been set up; for more information see Source options ,
page 50.
You can customise the labels displayed for
each source via the Configuration Wizard (see
Configuration Wizard, page 44) or the Configuration
Application (see Installing the Meridian Configuration
Application, page 53).
To switch on from standby
• Press On/Off (front panel), or select a source by
pressing the appropriate source key on the remote;
eg CD.
The soft keys revert to the Home set in standby, even
though the display is blank, so the G65 can also be
turned on by pressing one of the first four soft keys.
The display shows the source, DSP preset, and volume
setting. For example, if you select the CD source, the
display shows:
The G65 Digital Surround Controller mutes the
sound while you change source.
If the digital surround controller is part of a Meridian
system it will automatically switch on any other unit
in the system, such as the 800 Reference DVD/CD
Player and Meridian DSP Loudspeakers.
To switch to standby
• Press On/Off (front panel) or Off (remote).
If you have other Meridian equipment or Meridian
DSP Loudspeakers connected to the digital surround
controller these units will also switch to standby.
