Front Panel

1 Standby button & LED indicator
The front panel Standby button will toggle the preamplifier between operate, its
fully operational state, and a standby mode that leaves the preamplifier off, yet
ready to respond to system commands via any of the supported control options
(e.g. IR input, DC trigger, CAN Bus, or
RS-232).
The current state of the preamplifier is indicated by the LED indicator in the
center of the standby button. When the unit is powered and switched on, the state
of this LED indicates the following:
• on
• flashing (on power-up)
• off
• on (dim)
• flashing (after power-up)
If you are planning not to use the preamplifier for an extended period of time, e.g.
vacation or other travel, we suggest you disconnect it from the AC mains. Please
be certain that the preamplifier is turned off prior to disconnecting it from the AC
mains.
Also, it is a good practice to physically disconnect any and all valuable electronics
from the AC mains during electrical storms, as a lightning strike anywhere near
your home can put a tremendous surge on the AC mains that can damage any
piece of electronic equipment, no matter how well designed and protected. The
best protection in the case of severe electrical storms is simply to remove the
electronics from any connection with the power grid.
