Remote Control

The Velodyne Digital Drive infrared remote control allows you to set up, adjust, and reset your subwoofer when connected to a television or a video monitor. You will also use your remote to activate preset listening values, set the subwoofer’s volume up or down, mute the subwoofer, or set a night operational mode.

Take care not to lose or misplace your remote control as adjustments to the subwoofer (with the exception of volume control) can only be done using the remote.

External remote eyes may be ordered from either Velodyne or your local Velodyne audio equipment dealer.
