5 Remote Control Functions

Note:

Note:

The SM6 comes supplied with a 36 button Perreaux Universal infrared remote control.

The remote control uses 2 x AAA batteries and may be changed by removing the black perspex insert.

Press the button on the remote to select the code-set required to control the SM6.

The SM6 uses the following functions:

Standby

Pressing this button puts the SM6 into standby, disconnecting all power supplies except the digital power supply for the microcontroller and turning off the remote trigger outputs. Standby is indicated by a single dot on the display and operation can be resumed by pressing standby again or selecting a source input.

Mute

Depressing this control causes volume to be muted. The display will indicate "MU" and the volume will remain muted until the volume level is increased, or the mute button is depressed again at which stage volume will be returned to the previous setting.

The mute control has a ‘punch through’ function and will operate regardless of the code-set selected i.e. you can be operating the CD player remote functions and still use the mute control without selecting the button first.

Display

Pressing this button will cause the display to turn off, and is intended for use if the light of the display is distracting (for instance in a darkened room). Any operations performed will be momentarily displayed before resuming a turned off state. The display can be turned on by again pressing the display button.

Balance Left / Balance Right

The balance controls allow you to vary the level of either the Left or Right channel to obtain the correct stereo balance for your listening position. Pushing the Balance Left button will cause the level of the right channel to be attenuated (decreased in volume). Pushing the Balance Right button will cause the level of the left channel to be attenuated.

During any balance adjustment the display will indicate the direction of adjustment, left or right, with an "L" or an "R" followed by a number indicating the level of adjustment. The range is L1-L9 and R1-R9. "LR" on the display indicates the balance is centred.
