(18) Standby Button:
Turns the Dialog on or off. When Power Indicator LED (17) is not lit, the man PSU is
not turned on or not connected to AC mains
NOTE: The DIALOG is equipped with an energy-saving power supply.
Power consumption in standby mode is less than 1 watt, which means you can leave
the DIALOG always in standby mode. If you're not using the Dialog for a longer
period of time (holidays, travel, etc...) you can turn the power supply off completely
with the main power switch (8). In severe storms with possible danger of lightning
strikes, you may unplug the power cord from the AC outlet for added safety!
3.2 Connections
Up to eight modules can be inserted at the back of the DIALOG main chassis. You
need at least one input and one output module, to operate the DIALOG preamplifier.
The display (14) will show an error message if no modules are present. The DIALOG
ships from the factory with at least three modules instaled, unless otherwise
specified. Each module has its own manual, since the DIALOG main chassis is
basically a control unit with a power supply. However, it houses a large part of the
"intelligence" of the entire device, namely the main microprocessor, which contains all
the control software. The modules contain the actual audio circuitry, ie the gain
stages, D/A converters and related electronics, depending on the individual module.

To be used for future software updates.
Since the DIALOG is a modular design, new modules may be developed over time,
which can be added to the preamplifier, hence the need to possibly update the
control software.

software developments. We will provide the most current software available for free
