Automatic Mode for On/Standby

SETTING UP & TUNING IN

Adjusting the settings and using the subwoofer Once you have ensured yourself that all necessary connections have been made, the subwoofer can be switched on and used. With the exception of the mains power switch (No. 2 in fig. 2) controlling the subwoofer is done through the DSC 1 remote control; the numbering at the beginning of each section corresponds to the numbering in fig. 6.

Switching the subwoofer On and Off

The Power Switch on the subwoofers back panel switches the subwoofer completely off: Set to the Off position, the subwoofer will not respond to commands from the remote control. For normal operation, the switch will always be set to the On position.

•Switch the subwoofer on with the Power switch on the back panel.

•The Status LED (No. 2 in fig. 7) on the front of the subwoofer will light up green.

The subwoofer switches to On or Standby automatically: Automatic switching works by signal-sensing. As long as a music signal is available on the subwoofers Input, it will remain switched on. After 20 minutes of not sensing any Input music signal or receiving a signal from the remote control, the subwoofer will automatically switch to Standby mode.

When in Standby mode, the Power status LED (No. 2 in fig.

7)is red; when switched to On, the LED is green. During the minute prior to switching to Standby, the Status LED (No. 2 in fig. 7) will alternate slowly between green and red to indicate it is about to switch to Standby.

Even in automatic mode, it is possible to switch the subwoofer to Standby or On, using the on/standby buttons (buttons in No. 2 in fig. 6):

•By pressing the upper button briefly, the subwoofer will switch On (if it was already on, nothing will happen). Note that if no music signal presents itself within 20 minutes, the subwoofer will switch back to Standby again.

•By pressing the lower button briefly, the subwoofer will switch to Standby (if it was already in Standby, nothing will happen). Note that on the next occasion a music signal presents itself (after a 20 minute silence), the subwoofer will switch to On again automatically.

The Power status LED (No. 2 in fig. 7) will show if the subwoofer is in Standby mode (LED is Red) or On (LED is green).
