MISCELLANEOUS
The AIR series are unquestionably high quality products. This section focuses on a few technical issues that adds to the perception of the high standard of the products.
High efficiency compact Switched Mode Power Supply (SMPS)
For saving overhead power consumption and to insure optimal performance disregarding the mains voltage, the unit is equipped with a high efficiency compact Switched Mode Power Supply (SMPS). Using switched technology both in amplifiers and power supply can reduce the heat sink size to about 1/3 the size of what it would be with regular power supply and class AB amplifiers.
Power saving shut down modes
The amplifier can detect whether or not there is Input on the analog or digital line. If input is absent for more than half an hour all monitors in a network will go to sleep- mode. from which they can recover automatically when signal is received. The power up time from sleep is a few hundred ms.
If Input signal is absent for more than 2½ hours the system will go into standby from which it can recover by user intervention such as touching the volume wheel on the Remote Control or by touching the Master monitor display.
Software updates
Each monitor in a setup can be software updated via Network. This is done through PC/Mac using the AIR SOFT. Follow the Software update procedure as described on www.dynaudioacoustics.com
Reset Procedures
Three different levels of “Reset” exists. For all three scenarios all connected monitors will be affected.
The following Reset procedures are accessed by holding the ENTER key on the System Controller while powering up:
Clear Monitor Settings
All global and local parameters in connected monitors are reset. Preset and network settings are not affected.
Reset all Settings
A “factory” reset procedure that deletes all global and local parameter settings as well as preset and network settings.
The following reset procedure is found in the Setup menu:
Clear Setup for entire network
Select this reset procedure to clear all network settings.
Global Parameters
These parameters applies for the entire System:
