REMOTE CONTROL FUNCTIONS

The Model 2100 remote control has a maximum range of approximately 20–25 feet (6–7.5 meters). Use only AAA alkaline batteries in the handset and insert them according to the + and – polarity markings in the battery compartment.

On and Off Buttons

These have the same function as the Power button on the front panel. These separate buttons enable programming unambiguous “hard” off and on commands into a system controller or to create a macro sequence for a learning-type remote control.

Note: The On and Off buttons are disabled when the rear panel Auto Turn On switch is set to 12V or AC.

Mute Button

Pressing the Mute button once mutes the signal at all of the Out jacks except the Record Out. The red Mute light will flash on the front panel while mute is engaged. Press the Mute button a second time to cancel mute.

Volume REMOTE CONTROL FUNCTIONS and On and Off Buttons Buttons

These buttons control the rotation of the front panel motorized

Level control to increase and decrease listening volume levels.

Tone On and Off Buttons

Press the Tone On and Off buttons to engage or disengage the bass and treble tone control circuits. The remote lets you hear whether “flat” or adjusted tone sounds better at your favorite listening position.

Note: The remote control cannot make the Bass and Treble adjustments; these adjustments must be made with the Model 2100’s front panel Bass and Treble knobs.

Source Input Buttons

Press the Input button of the source that you wish to hear.

“BURNING-IN” YOUR MODEL 2100

Like many other great high end preamplifiers, your Model 2100 should operate for at least 72 hours with music playing after it is first turned on before it will sound its best. Any volume level is ok. This gives various internal components and wiring a chance to “form” their optimum electron pathways so they can pass complex musical information with greater definition, smoothness and transparency. Although your Model 2100 will sound spectacular when you first turn it on, you will come to appreciate it even more as your listening hours accumulate. You’ll discover additional musical details you may not have known were present.
