KX-5 to “zero” while retaining the current volume
setting in memory. Pressing either button a second
time restores the volume to the previous level.
When the mute function is activated, all five
decimal points in the display will light up.
System-Sleep Mode
Press and hold the right-hand front-panel button for
three seconds (or a short press of the “1/0” remote
button) to enter the system-sleep mode. All
connected AyreLink-equipped components will
enter a low power consumption state, yet the
AyreLink functions remain active, as do both the
tape and main outputs. This mode is indicated by
illuminating the green LED in the right-hand
button.
While in system-sleep mode, the tape output is
still active and will respond to changes of the input
selector. This allows the tape output connectors
to be connected to a headphone amplifier or
recording device.
A long press of the “1/0” remote button will
place all AyreLinked components in your system
into low-power consumption or standby mode.
Input Select
The desired source component may be selected with
either the left-hand knob or the remote control
handset, and the assigned name is displayed on the
front panel.
