NOTES ON PROGRAM MODE

 While the MIMIK is playing a stored

program the A-B

 

REPEAT

 function is disabled and 

SKIP

i

 or 

u

SKIP

will skip to the next or previous track in the programmed sequence.

SEARCH

 

y

 will search through the current track, and then into the

next track in numerical, rather than program, sequence. So, you can
use 

SEARCH

 

y

 to break out of the stored program. If you do so though,

the program will resume at the end of the track you used 

SEARCH

 

y

to get into.

DIGITAL AUDIO DISABLE

TO DISABLE THE DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT

 press the pair of keys

marked 

DIGITAL 

and hold them for 2 seconds. The 

DIGITAL

 indicator will

go out and no data will be transmitted from the digital output of the
MIMIK. This facility is of particular use in a Linn multi-room system
using a Linn NUMERIK D/A convertor as it allows you to switch inputs
to the NUMERIK. If you are using another dual channel D/A convertor
this facility allows you to avoid intermodulation problems between
the channels in the convertor.

TO ENABLE THE DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT

 if it has been disabled,

press the pair of keys marked 

DIGITAL 

and hold them for 2 seconds. The

DIGITAL indicator will illuminate, and digital data will once again be
transmitted from the digital output of the NUMERIK.

USEFUL INFORMATION

PERMANENT DISPLAY

 By default, the MIMIK is configured to turn

the display off after about 20 seconds after the last command. If you
would prefer the display to stay on permanently, please contact your
Linn retailer who will make the simple modification necessary.

USING THE REMOTE CONTROL

The MIMIK is supplied with a small handset which controls the CD
player and provides basic control for other Linn components. The
larger handset supplied with some other Linn products may also be
used with the MIMIK.
