    SimLink™ chain; no one particular component operates as the main communications controller. In the event that you are using your MOON 700i with an older MOON product such as a SuperNova, you will need to update the software of the older product to allow for complete SimLink™ functionality. Contact your retailer for further details.

  • Page 15: Remote Control Operation

    The MOON 700i Dual-Mono Integrated Amplifier uses the ‘FRM-3’ full function, all aluminum backlit remote control (figure 3). It operates on the Philips RC-5 communication protocol and is can be used with other MOON components such as CD Players, DAC’s, Integrated Amplifiers, as well as other Preamplifiers.

  • Page 16: Troubleshooting

    For example, when one conductor is carrying a signal of +10 Volts, the other will be carrying a signal of –10 Volts. When these two inverted signals on a balanced line are output from the MOON 700i, any noise picked up by the interconnect will be eliminated since a differential circuit amplifies only the difference between these two signals: Noise on a balanced interconnect will be equal on both conductors and therefore not be processed.
