Standby Mode [STB]
This function controls how the Connect 5.1 powers up resp. down – manually or automatically, partly dependent on an incoming audio signal.
•If ECO [ECO] is selected, the pre-amplifier enters standby mode after 20 minutes without any detected audio signal at the selected input
and needs to be powered up manually using the remote control or the touch panel at the pre-amplifier.
•If Network [NSB] is selected, the Connect must be turned on manually and will automatically enter standby after 20 minutes without
detected audio at the selected input. However, there is a difference to the ECO mode as described below.
•If Auto [AUT] is selected, the Connect turns on automatically if an audio signal is detected at any input. If no signal is detected any lon-
ger, the pre- amplifier enters standby mode after 1 minute (at the digital inputs Optical, Coaxial, and Bluetooth) resp. 15 minutes (at the
analogue input Line [AUX]).
•If Manual [MAN] is selected, the Connect stays active permanently and must be powered up and down manually, using the remote cont-
rol or the touch panel at the top of the pre-amplifier.
If ECO is selected, all wirelessly connected speakers will be powered down automatically, but each speaker must be powered up individually.
This is the operation mode with the lowest standby power consumption. All the other modes Network, LSB, Auto, and Manual provide an
automatic power up function for all wirelessly connected speakers when powering up the Smart Connect 5.1 (Master Device).
Notes:
•If the standby mode is set to Auto [AUT] and the pre-amplifier is set to standby mode using the Power " " key on the touch panel,
it is not possible for the Connect 5.1 to switch on automatically. To use the Auto mode of the pre-amplifier as intended, do not
power down the Connect 5.1 using the Power key but always wait until the Connect 5.1 powers down, automatically.
•To avoid an unintentional power-up of the Connect 5.1 using the analogue input, the threshold value has to be set quite high. To
make sure the Connect 5.1 powers up correctly, please set the output level of your analogue audio source to a high level (but not
more than 2Vrms).

1
To enter the menu, press and hold the input select key " " for at least 3 seconds.
