Pre/post switch; which is which?

Probably a silly question, but I have a new Peavey Minimax amp, which I love, but the sound guy was asking which setting is for "pre" and which is for "post." On the back of the amp, there is a button and a pre/post designation. Is it post when the button is depressed? Or the other way around. Manual doesn't say. I am feeling that pre is the preset (not depressed), but does anyone know for sure? I know that the "pre" is often the preferred for FOH.
