PlayLink

By setting all your components to global brightness you can adjust the touchscreen and LED brightness for your entire system by changing the brightness of a single touchscreen. All CAN-Bus software updates automatically set the updated unit to Global Brightness. If you want a particular unit to be excluded from Global Brightness, deselect Global Brightness for that unit.

By setting all your components to global standby you can bring your entire system in and out of standby by pressing the standby button of any unit or remote. All CAN-Bus software updates automatically set the updated unit to global standby. If you want a particular unit to be excluded from global standby, deselect global standby for that unit.

The following CAN-Bus features are model specific.

This feature is exclusive to Delta series disc players and will only function if the disc player is connected to a CAN-Bus enabled preamp or surround sound processor.

When PlayLink is active, pressing play on the disc player will also automatically switch the preamp/processor to a specified input. This means that you can listen to a CD or watch a DVD literally at the touch of a button.

The first step in using PlayLink is to choose the input you wish to be selected when play is pressed on the disc player. Press the PlayLink icon, then select the correct input from the list.

Once you have selected the input press back, then select configuration. PlayLink is activated and disabled through the PlayLink icon on the CAN-Bus configuration screen.
