One press – Low brightness

Two presses – Medium brightness

Three presses – High brightness

After the ten-second configuration period has elapsed, the status LED will revert to green (”Standby” mode).

If no button presses are detected during the ten second period, the unit will revert to the factory default setting (high brightness).

Changes to the default settings will also be transmitted via the AyreLink communication system to other linked components. Therefore, changing the display brightness on one amplifier will make the same change on all linked amplifiers.

Trigger Control

A trigger control allows one component to control the “Standby” state of another component. If there are no other AyreLink components to control the operation of the MX-R amplifier, it may be convenient to use the trigger control from another component.

The trigger will directly control one MX-R amplifier. Additional amplifiers are in turn controlled by the AyreLink communications system. Connect the AyreLink ports of your amplifiers in daisy-chain fashion as described in the chapter “Connections and Installation”. The unused AyreLink port on an amplifier at either end of the AyreLink chain is then used as a trigger input.
