Turn On Options Switch:
Manual Position
When the Turn On Options switch is in its Manual position, the Halo Integrated must be
turned on and off manually by pressing the front panel On-Off button or by using the
remote control's On and Off buttons.
12V Position (Automatic On/Off)
When the Turn On Options switch is set to its 12 V position, the Halo Integrated is
automatically powered on only when an external +9 to +12 volts is present at its 12 V input
jack. When the external voltage ceases the Halo Integrated will turn off immediately. The 12 V
switch position disables the front panel On-Off button and the remote control's On and Off
buttons.
AC (Always On)
The Halo Integrated will turn on automatically when the AC mains electrical outlet it's plugged
into is live.
Note: The Halo Integrated will turn off only when the AC mains outlet is switched
off. Pressing the On-Off button on the front panel or the On and Off buttons on the remote
control will not turn it off when AC (Always On) is selected.
Note: Whenever the Auto Turn On switch is set to 12 V or AC the On-Off button on the front
panel and the remote control's On and Off buttons are disabled.
3.5mm Mini Jack and 2.5 mm Sub-Mini Jacks
Some models of Parasound power amplifiers and preamplifiers use 2.5 mm "sub-mini" 12 volt
trigger jacks. To connect the Halo Integrated with these models we include a trigger wire with a
3.5 mm plug at one end and a 2.5 mm plug at the other end.
