NOTES: Make sure that the S70 is located well within range of all components, otherwise the Sleep Timer function will function erratically or not at all.

The Sleep function is available only if Clock function has been selected (indicated by tick-mark) in the System Set-up Menu. Refer to chapter "Set-up of the S70 Remote Control" above for information on activating and setting the clock.

SETTING AND ACTIVATING THE TIMER FUNCTION

The S70 can be used to turn your system on and off at specific times with the Timer function. This way, you can use your system as an alarm clock, for instance. Before the Timer function can be set, it needs to be activated:

From the Main Menu, press the button next to "SYSTEM".

In the System Set-up Menu, press the button next to "TIMER"; a tick mark will

appear to indicate that the Timer Function has been activated. In all Menus,

the symbol on the right of the clock in the top of the display indicates that Timer function is activated.

To de-activate, press button again so that tick mark disappears.

Press the button next to "EXIT" to return to Main Menu.

To set the timer:

From the Main Menu, press the button next to "SYSTEM".

In the System Set-up Menu, press the button next to "TIMER" for 2 seconds.

In the Timer Set-up Menu, press the button next to "ON" to set the time you want the system to switch on. Use the 24-hour format to enter the correct time (for example, 2:15PM would be 14:15) by pressing the buttons next to "HR+" (to adjust hours upwards), "HR-" (adjust hours downwards), "MIN +" (adjust minutes upwards), "MIN -" (adjust minutes downwards). Refer also to figure No.9.

Press the button next to "OFF" to set the time to switch the system off, using the time adjustment buttons as described above.

Press the button next to "EXIT" to return to System Set-up Menu.

Press the button next to "EXIT" to return to Main Menu

You can check the Timer setting and status from the Main Menu, refer to chapter "Using the NAD S70 System Remote Control", section "Main Menu: Viewing Timer status".

NOTES: Make sure that the S70 is located well within range of all components, otherwise the Timer function will function erratically or not at all.

The Timer function is available only if Clock function has been selected (indicated by tick-mark) in the System Set-up Menu. Refer to chapter "Set-up of the S70 Remote Control" above for information on activating and setting the clock.

NAD-LINK

Many NAD components feature NAD-Link. The RCA sockets on the back panel of these components, marked "NAD-Link In" and "Out" allow for remote control command communication between the components when connected with each other. Connecting NAD-Link between the various components is not strictly necessary for the S70 to work, but it will improve overall performance and consistency for remote control commands.

Connect the "NAD-Link Out" from one component to the "NAD-Link In" on the other component. From the latter, connect from "NAD-Link Out" to the "NAD- Link In" on the next component, etc., so that the entire system’s NAD Link sockets are connected in a daisy-chained fashion, always IN to OUT and OUT to IN. Do not connect the "NAD Link-Out" from the last component to the first component’s "NAD-Link In" in the chain.
