INPUTS - OUTPUTS
1) RCA inputs (Input 1/Input 2): Line inputs for connection with the RCA line-outs of the head-unit
2) Digital coaxial RCA input: For connection of the ZE-5.1D amplifier to the digital output (Bitstream, / PCM) of a DVD headunit
3) Subwoofer output: Sends a subwoofer pre-amp signal to a larger subwoofer amplifier if necessary
4) Video Input/Output: The ZE-5.1D provides function selection and display exclusively by OSD (On-Screen Display). For this purpose, the video output from a DVD or other video source is connected into the video input of the amplifier. The video output should then be connected to the input of the monitor, LCD, or TV. The ZE-5.1D supports only the PAL standard. When video input into the system is absent, the display color is blue and display position may be altered. This allows selection and display of functions even when no video sources are playing
5) Optical Toslink input: For connection of the ZE-5.1D amplifier to the optical digital output of a DVD headunit
6) IR input socket: IR remote input to control the system using the included remote control, you must first connect the wired IR sensor to the IR input of the system. To control the system, there should be no obstacle between the remote control and the IR sensor. For best results, the remote control should point directly at the front window of the wired IR sensor
7) Loudspeaker output terminals. Note, that the loudspeaker outputs may not be bridged
8) "GND" for connection to chassis ground or negative terminal of car battery
9) “+12V” for connection to the positive terminal of car battery
10) "REM" for the automatic (remote) turn-on / turn-off of the power amplifier from the head-unit's remote or antenna control leac
11) REM OUT This output must be connected to a separate bass amplifier (if required
When the amp powered on, the MUTE button on the remote control is used for instantaneous lowering of the volume level to zero. Eliminating MUTE can be done by pressing the MUTE button again, or else adjust volume up or down.
2. Input Selection
The INPUT SELECT button on the remote control provides manual switching of the input coming into the system. The first press of the INPUT button displays the current input source. The selection switches in order from -> Optical -> Coaxial-> Input1 -> Input2 and then back to Optical again. Input switching is possible while the source is displayed on the screen. If there is an error in optical or coaxial input, the display will blink continuously. In this circumstance, all controls are available while blinking. The ZE-5.1D has source memory: When you power the unit off and then on again, it will remember the last source selected, and return to that source automatically.
3. Test Tone
The ZE-5.1D amp features a test tone mode to check, if all speakers are connected properly. When this button is selected (on the remote control), white noise of a fairly low volume is forwarded to each of the 5 main speakers in order from -> Front Left -> Center -> Front Right -> Rear Right -> Rear Left, alternating every 2 seconds until the button is pressed once more.
Note: There is no test tone for the SUB output

To select the input source for the system, the system should be turned on, then
1) Push „INPUT“ selection button on remote controller
2) Continuing to push the „INPUT“ selection button while the input is displayed on the monitor or TV makes a change in the input source as follows: OPTICAL -> COAXIAL -> INPUT1 -> INPUT2 -> OPTICAL (in circular order).
If there is an error in the data received via the optical or coaxial line the display will blink continuously. For more details, please see section 13. Digital Error Detect
2. Listening Mode Selection
The system provides three kinds of listening modes:
Surround Listening Mode
This mode is selected with a full set of 5.1 speakers connected. This mode is recommended for use, while Dolby Digital or Pro Logic is working.
Phantom 4.1 Listening Mode
This mode is selected when a center speaker is absent. This mode is recommended for use with Dolby Digital or Pro Logic when working without a center channel speaker
2-Channel Stereo Listening Mode
When this mode is selected, the rear channels are identical to the front channels. That is, the front left and right channels are copied to rear left and right channels respectively. In this mode, center signal is not produced, but SUB signal is produced. Pro Logic is automatically deactivated in this mode.
To select a listening mode described above, the system should be turned on and
1) Push „LISTEN MODE“ selection button on remote controller
2) Continuing to push „LISTEN SELECTION“ button while it is displayed in monitor or TV makes a change in the listening mode as follows: SURROUND -> PHANTOM 4.1 -> 2-STEREO (in circular order). While Pro Logic is off for a PCM source (CD or line input), if the listening mode is . SURROUND" or "PHANTOM 4.1 " there is no surround and center sound. For surround sound, Pro Logic should be set to ON in setup menu, or alternatively, "2-STEREO" listening mode can be selected.
3. DRC Dynamic Range Compression On/Off
This function currently supports only Dolby Digital 5.1 sources. For other programs and no surround listening modes, this function is not effective. When this function is on, a high level signal (e.g. explosions, bombing, jet passing by, etc) is compressed or attenuated, while having no influence on low level signal (like speech). When this function is off, the output is reproduced with full dynamic range as recorded on disc.
This function can be selected using DRC on/off switch in setup menu.
1) Push „SETUP“ button
2) Move blinking arrow to „DRC“ using „MENU UP“ or „MENU DOWN“ button
3) Select On or Off using „MENU LEFT“ or „MENU RIGHT“ button
4) After fi nished, push „SETUP“ button again to escape setup window
When DRC is ON, the high level peaks are reduced with no further effect on reproduction of low level sounds
For normal listening, set DRC to off
4. Pro Logic On/Of
This function makes stereo programs to be reproduced by multiple channels. When this function is not selected, the original stereo source is bypassed to the front speakers. This function is automatically bypassed for stereo listening mode, regardless of its selection in setup menu
To enable or disable Pro Logic, the system should be turned on and
1) Push „SETUP“ button
2) Move blinking arrow to „PRO LOGIC“ using „MENU UP“ or „MENU DOWN“ button
3) Select On or Off using „MENU LEFT“ or „MENU RIGHT“ button

5. Crossover Filter Selection
The SUB channel is low-pass filtered and other channels are high-pass filtered. The cutoff frequency of those low pass and high pass filters is changed simultaneously in this selection. This selection provides 60Hz to 220Hz of cutoff frequency in 10 Hz steps
To select suitable crossover fi iter to match one's own speaker system
1) Push „SETUP“ button
2) Using „MENU LEFT“ and „MENU RIGHT“ buttons on the remote control, select cutoff frequency in decreasing and increasing order respectively. One push of the left or right button makes one step movement in frequency. The frequency which is selected (displayed) is displayed promptly
3) After you are fi nished, push „SETUP“ button again to escape setup window
6. Channel Level Control
The menu system provides the ability to control each channel's input level from -10dB to +10 dB in 1 dB steps. This trim control can be used for matching levels of different types of speakers, or used when more power is required.
To enable channel level menu and to control values
1) Push „SETUP“ button.
2) Move blinking arrow to „CHANNEL LEVEL“ using „MENU UP“ or “MENU DOWN” button
3) Push the „Enter“ button on the remote controller. The window for channel level control will open.
4) Move the blinking arrow to the channel to be controlled using the „MENU UP“ or „MENU DOWN“ button
5) For level increasing, use the „MENU RIGHT“ button, and the „MENU LEFT“ button for level decreasing.
6) After fi nished, push the „SETUP“ button to escape channel window and push the „SETUP“ button again to completely escape setup menu.
7. Test Tone On/Of
To use the test tone function, the master volume should be increased to a relatively high playback level, because the output level of the test tone is relatively low
To enable or disable the test tone output.
1) Push the „TEST TONE“ button on the remote control. The test tone will be output to one channel at a time in the order of „FRONT LEFT → CENTER → FRONT RIGHT → REAR RIGHT → REAR LEFT“ continuously. While the test tone is playing, pressing any other function button does not work.
2) To output normal sound, push „TEST TONE“ button again. The test tone mode is then disabled to produce normal audio output.
Note: Test tone does not include a tone for the SUB channel. Checking the connechoon of SUB speaker is only possible with real audio sound through the SUB speaker.
8. Master Volume Up/Dowr
This controls the output level of all channels simultaneously It is designed to control in 1dB steps for high volume levels, or in 2dB steps for middle levels and in 3\~5dB for low levels. When volume level is lowered far enough, the output is muted. A short push of the „VOLUME UP“ or „VOLUME DOWN“ button will change the volume one step up or down, while pressing down the Volume button will result in multiple step changes.
9. Mute On/OFF
This function is to enable or disable muting of the decoder output. When mute is enabled, this is indicated on the screen until it is disabled. To disable mute, use the „MUTE“ button once more, or the master „VOLUME UP“, „VOLUME DOWN“ button respectively
10. Setup Menu Display
Controlling DRC, Pro Logic, crossover, line input levels and each channel level is only possible in the setup menu. For more information, refer to the previous explanations of this section. When the setup menu is invoked, the following display is shown
-> PRO LOGIC ON/OFF
-> DRC ON/OFF
-> CROSSOVER XXXHz
-> INPUT1 LEVEL X V**
-> INPUT2 LEVEL X V
-> CHANNEL LEVEL
* XXXHz of Crossover is 60Hz to 220Hz in 10Hz steps
** X V has the range of 0.2 - 6V
Movement of arrows in the left column is achieved by pressing the „MENU UP“ or „MENU DOWI button. When a function is selected, the arrow corresponding to the function is blinking. The On or Off status is controlled by „MENU RIGHT“ or „MENU LEFT“ button. In this case, both buttons act identically. The adjustment of the cutoff frequency for the crossover filter is also made by „MENU RIGHT“ or „MENU LEFT“ button. However, the left button is used for decreasing frequency and right button for increasing in this case. The „SETUP“ button is used to enable and disable setup menu
11. Channel Level Control Menu Display
As the sub-menu of setup menu, the following menu for channel level control is provided. To view this sub-menu, move to „CHANNEL LEVEL“ in setup menu using „MENU UP“ or „MENU DOWN button. Then, push the „ENTER“ button on the remote control unit
-> FRONT LEFT XX dB*
-> FRONT RIGHT XX dB
-> CENTER XX dB
-> RFAR I FFT XX dB
-> REAR RIGHT XX dB
-> WOOFER XX dB
* XX dB is -10 to +10dB in dB steps
The selection of channels is identical to the selection of functions in the setup menu. The level change is made by „MENU LEFT“ and „MENU RIGHT“ buttons. The left button is used for value decreasing and the right button for increasing, exactly indetical to the adjustment of the crossover filter frequency. To escape the channel sub-menu, press the button twice. The first push is to return to setup menu from this sub-menu, while the second push lets you leave the escape setup menu
12. Volume Fade in and Ou
Volume fading is involved in the following cases
1) Listening Mode Change
2) Input Source Change
3) Return From Test Tone
During fading of the volume, the display is blinking and the controller does not accept any command from the remote control. When the blinking stops, the user can control the system using remote control again
13. Digital Error Detection
The system provides two digital inputs; optical and coaxial. The coaxial input should be used with a true 75 ohm RCA interconnect cable. When one (or two) digital inputs are not connected, or connected inappropriately (for example the source unit is not powered on) the system can detect this situation. When pushing the input button on the remote control unit, the selected input source is displayed for about 7 sec. If digital data is properly received, the display will change from blinking to non-blinking after about 2 sec. due to the volume fading. If the digital data reception is not error-free, it remains blinking. When this situation occurs, connections or the digital output of the headunit should be checked. Note that the system does not provide error detection or zero-bit input detection on its analog input, such as line input1 and line input2
14. Amplifi er Shutdown and Message Display
The system can detect the following error modes of the amplifi er
1) Short Circuit and Over Current
2) Under Voltage
3) Over Temperature
When the system is in an under-voltage situation (2) (less than 9.5V) the overall system is shut down. The system will not give any message for under voltage situation. When the system is first put into protection for situations (1) or (3) it will self-test for 10 milliseconds. (While the system is self-testing, the sound may be discontinued.) If the same situation is detected after a certain time is elapsed, the system causes the amplifier to shut down by disconnecting the amplifier section from the power supply, and will display „AMP PROTECT“ on the OSD for about 110 sec (\~2 minutes). In this situation, no command can be executed. After the stated time has elapsed, the system automatically recovers to normal operation with the volume level two steps down from the level prior to shutoff
