Record Selector - Ada PTM-6150 Operation & Installation Manual

Record Selector

The Record Selector operates
independently from the main
output providing the ability to
record, view, or play (in
another room) a component
other than the one selected in
the home theater.
To determine which device is
currently selected, press the
Record Selector knob. To
change components:
1. Dial In New Device
Turn the Record Selector knob
until the second line of the
LCD display reads the
component you wish to
select.
2. Engage New Device
Once the second line of the
display indicates the next
component you wish to
access, press the Input
Record knob to engage this
input.

The Cinema Reference incorporates a record selector that oper-
ates independently from the actual source component selected for
the home theater room. This record selector can be used in several
ways.
1 Use the Record Selector to send audio and video signals
from a particular component to a recording device (i.e. VCR)
2 Use the Record Selector to send a video signals to a second
monitor or TV set. Ideal for the sports fanatic, this option would
permit a second TV to display a broadcast from on tuning mecha-
nism (i.e. DSS receiver, TV tuner, or VCR TV tuner). While the
primary viewing surface would be set to display a particular channel
from one device (i.e. DSS receiver), the additional TV or monitor
could be set to display the image of the TV Tuner in the VCR.
3 Use the Record Selector to determine the image inserted
into a TV's PIP (Picture In Picture). This would provide the same
effect as described in option 2 (above) using the PIP function in
place of a second TV or monitor.
4 Use the Record Selector to send the audio and video signal
of a particular device to a whole-house multi-room audio video sys-
tem. This setup would cause the Record Selector to act as a sepa-
rate zone from the actual home theater.
Record Selector Functions
To determine what component the Record Selector is currently set
to, press the Record Selector knob. The display will read as follows
where the second line of the display indicates the component se-
lected.
To Select another source compo-
nent for recording, display to a sec-
ond monitor (TV or PIP), or for dis-
tribution through the house, turn
the Record Selector knob until the
new component appears in the dis-
play.
