System protocols

Multiroom systems have protocols which allow you to define the extent to which any room can interfere with the main system. You can choose to have the DSP5000C ignore the Standby state of the associated preamplifier, looking after its own Standby independently. To select this mode while in the system menu:

1.Press Fn - Record

The display should indicate 'preamplifier off' like this:

??P.

Toggle this choice with Fn - Record.

Setting the Volume mode

1.Press the menu e key

LE. 1

In the 500 Comms system there is provision for two volume controls, main and secondary.

2.Use the and menu keys to choose between:

1. Volume main means that the DSP5000C volume control will follow the main system and respond to the red keys on the remote. Shifted (secondary) volume commands will be passed on to another product. (Equivalent to the VolM setting in 562 and 501.)

2. Volume secondary means that the internal volume control will follow the second volume control in the system and respond to the shifted volume command on the remote. (Equivalent to the VolS setting in 562 and 501.)

3. Volume is handled in the speaker independently of other products on the Comms. (Equivalent to the VolN setting in 562 and 501.)

Options 2 and 3 are for Multiroom installations. If in doubt select 1.
