For channels with stereo link or group settings established at the D-901, the lowest numbered channels in the stereo linked or grouped channels are enabled.
Control's knob position 10 of the D-911 provides the channel gain set by the D-901. As a guide, knob position 8 provides about 10 dB below the gain set by the D-901.
