Krell Link Operation

1.When all components are linked, as described above, place each component in the stand-by mode. This ensures all components are synchronized when signals from the control component are sent to linked components.

2.Switch the control component to the operational mode using the component’s power key on the remote control. The linked components simultaneously switch to the operational mode.

An individual linked component can be manually switched between the stand-by and the operational modes from its front panel. Switching a linked component temporarily breaks the chain of linked components. To re-establish linked operation, return all components to the stand-by mode.

Note

Other Krell components can be configured to allow you to disconnect or reconnect the Krell Link feature without physically disconnecting or reconnecting the components and MIDI cables. See the owner’s reference for your Krell component.
