Timer - T+A Elektroakustik K1 CD-RECEIVER Operating Instructions Manual

TIMER

The system incorporates an integral clock
module which can be set to switch the ma-
chine on automatically at a fixed time of day.
For this to work properly you have to set the
internal clock to the correct time of day, and
then set the power-on time. The time of day
is set in the special function 'SETUP' (see the
Chapter "Menu control system").
If you want to switch the timer on and off
you must first select the tuner as the current
auditioning source. This is because the timer
always switches the system on set to the au-
ditioning source TUNER, as this is the only
way to ensure that a source signal is always
present when the timer is tripped.
PROGRAMMING THE TIMER
First select the TUNER as auditioning sour-
ce. Select the station and set the volume at
which you want the machine to switch itself
on.
Pressing the
the machine to Timer Set mode.
If you have already selected a power-on time,
the time you have set appears on the screen:
e.g. '14-38 TIM', with 'TIM' (TIMer) flas-
hing.
You can now move the time setting forward
or back using the VOLUME buttons. If you
hold the buttons pressed in, the rate of chan-
ge increases.
To activate the timer hold the button pressed
in for about a second. The screen briefly
shows the switch-on time and 'SET' instead
of 'TIM', e.g. '14-38 SET'.
At the same time the screen indicates that the
timer is active by showing the glowing
symbol.

Pressing the
the timer. The screen confirms this by sho-
wing the message 'ALARM OFF' briefly.
If you now switch the machine to STAND-
BY mode when the timer has been set to ac-
tive (by pressing the
front of the unit or on the RC handset), then
it will switch itself on again at the program-
med time.
Important:
The integral timer can only switch the ma-
chine on from STAND-BY mode. When in
STAND-BY mode the machine's screen
shows the time of day.
When in STAND-BY mode the machine can
temporarily show the alarm time if you press
the button (no longer glowing).
A longer press (about 1 second) with the ma-
chine in STAND-BY mode cancels the timer,
and the screen confirms your action by
displaying the message: 'ALARM OFF'.

control, the illuminated
This indicates that the timer will automati-
cally switch the unit back to STAND-BY
mode after about one hour.
If you operate any control on the unit during
this one-hour period (e.g. you alter the volu-
me level or change pre-sets), then the illumi-
nated symbol stops flashing. The timer
will now no longer switch off automatically
after an hour. If you wish to switch it off, you
must do so manually!
