At this point you can switch the Trigger voltage for active loudspeakers on
and off.
If you set the trigger voltage option to 'On', then loudspeakers
connected to the PRE output of the are switched on together with the
. This avoids the usual problem with automatic power-on systems: that
of "swallowing" the first few beats of the music.
If you connect different (active) loudspeakers or output stages to the unit, the
trigger voltage should be set to 'Off'.
A list of compatible active loudspeakers can be found in the chapter entitled "
Miscellaneous / Use with active speakers".
Every video monitor requires a certain amount of time to display the video
signals (latency); this period may vary from monitor to monitor. If your monitor
has a long latency, the result may be a perceptible time-lag between the picture
and the sound. This is usually apparent when lip movements are not properly
synchronised with the soundtrack. To compensate for this effect the
features a digital sound delay module (Lip-sync) which can be used to
synchronise picture and sound reproduction.
If necessary, set a delay time in this menu point which corresponds to your
video monitor. If the latency of your monitor is not stated in its Specification,
you will need to determine the appropriate value experimentally, e.g. by playing
a DVD in the original speech version (non-synchronised version). During
playback simply adjust the value for sound delay until the speaker's lip
movements coincide with the sound.
At this point you can adjust the brightness of the 's integral screen to
suit your personal preference in normal use. Seven levels are available.
In this menu point it is possible to determine the language which is to be used for the
displays on the integral screen on the front panel of the .
The language used for any transferred data, e.g. from an Internet radio station,
is determined by the device itself or the radio station, and therefore cannot be
selected on the .
The features several stand-by modes, enabling you to set the most
economical energy consumption mode for your particular usage. The following
settings are available.
Stand-by mode "Off"
Power consumption is < 0.4 Watt. The stand-by current drain is reduced to a
minimum by switching off all non-essential functions.
In this mode the can be switched on using the button on the
front panel, or the remote control handset.
"Comfort" stand-by mode
Power consumption is between 2 Watt and 6.5 Watt, depending on the screen
brightness you have set. In Comfort mode the following additional functions are
available:
Alarm timer with time of day display
Automatic clock setting (VHF-RDS)
Auto power-on (see "System settings / Source settings" chapter).
"App" stand-by mode
Power consumption is max. 8 Watt at full screen brightness; this mode
consumes most energy when the device is switched off.
In addition to the facilities of "Comfort" stand-by mode, the can be
switched on and off via the network using the Control App.
For information on energy-saving operation, and accurate information on
current drain in the various operating modes, please refer to the Chapter
entitled 'Notes on Energy Saving' and the Specification in the Appendix.
