Front Panel Controls

The front panel will look similar to Figure 1 (above). The large display window indicates the selected input source.
If your Nēo 340i includes the digital input option, additional information will appear in the display window. Refer
to the section entitled "Optional Digital Inputs" on page 9 for further details.
The "Standby" button disengages the input section
from the rest of the 340i's circuitry. When in "Standby"
mode all audio circuitry remains powered up to help
maintain optimal performance. When switching back
from "Standby" to the "on" mode, the blue LED directly
above the display window will illuminate, As well, the
current 'input' will be memorized from the previous
listening session. The blue indicator LED turns off when
the 340i is in "Standby" mode.
The "MP" button (for
corresponding input connection located on the right
side of the front panel for easy access. It uses a 1/8"
mini-jack connector which is the most common type of
connection found on portable media players. When
selected, the corresponding red LED, located to the left
of the button, will illuminate. When the "MP" input is in
use the display window automatically turns off. The
"Display" button allows you to turn the digital display
on and off.

sequentially scroll, either forward (►) or backward (◄)

installed options, the order of the inputs is as follows
going forward (►): Basic Unit: "CD", "A1", "A2" and "A3";

These abbreviations correspond directly to the labeling
of the rear panel inputs. By default the "CD" input is
intended for use with a CD Player, however you can
connect another type of source component to it. "A1",
"A2" and "A3" are intended for use with any type of
source component that outputs analog signal. If you
have installed the optional phono section, the "A3"
input is replaced by "PH". If you have installed the
balanced input option, "B1" will appear after the "A3" /
"PH" input. Finally, if you have installed the digital input
option, "D1", "D2", "D3" and "D4" will appear after either
its
"B1" (if you have the balanced option) or "A3" / "PH".
The optional inputs only appear if they are installed.
The "Spk off" button turns off the output signal only to
the loudspeakers connected to the Nēo 340i. This
feature is very useful when using headphones. When
this function is engaged, the red LED located to the
right will illuminate.
The "Mute" button mutes the output signal to the
loudspeaker terminals, headphone jack, as well as both
the fixed and variable line output connectors (refer to
the section entitled "Rear Panel Connections" for further
details). Pressing the "Mute" button a second time will
reinstate the volume back to its previous level. When
the output signal is muted, the red LED to the right will
repeatedly flash on and off.
