Changing Link Options

Sleep Timer

input selection process to a simple toggle between the two used inputs. Labeling both auxiliary inputs “N.U.” will effectively disable the input selection process on the Nº390S, although it will still control the analog inputs of a Linked preamplifier.

The following procedure will guide you through changing your Link options, should you decide you would like something other than the factory default settings. (Note that most people are perfectly satisfied with the default settings, and never need to concern themselves with this section.)

1.Make sure that the main power switch is set to the “on” (“”) position and the unit is not in “standby.”

2.Press and hold the front-panel mode button until SETUP followed by SOUND appears on the display. Release the mode button; subsequent “clicks” of the mode button will cycle through each of your Nº390S’s main menus, in this order: SOUND, LINKS, AUX IN’s. Continued clicks on the mode button will return you to the beginning of the list, in case you accidentally pass the option you want to change.

3.When the display shows the menu you want to access, press and hold the mode button again. Subsequent clicks of the mode button will cycle through the various items within that menu.

4. When an item you wish to change is in the display, use the	51

mode + and mode – keys (either on the front panel or on the
remote control) to change the setting.

5.Repeat step 4 for each setting you want to change.

6.When you have finished, press and hold the mode button again to confirm your change(s). The display will return to the original three main menus.

Once saved, your link settings remain in memory when you place the Nº390S into standby, when you turn off the main power switch — even if AC power is interrupted.

The Nº390S also may be set to automatically enter standby after a predefined period. As shipped from the factory, its standby function is manual (that is, it only enters or leaves standby when told to do so by the user).

This feature is similar to a “sleep timer” on a clock radio. If playing a CD, for example, the Nº390S will enter standby automatically after the user-selected period of time.
