The three position switch controls speaker configuration. You can select stereo, mono
left or mono right. This switch is useful for use of multiple M812 systems, allowing the
user to set up multiple speakers in mono left or right mode in the same room, resulting in
an improved stereo image.

the only one synchronized to its associated docking station, then it will
place the docking station in standby as well.
