AUTOMATED TURN-ON LOGIC (ATO LOGIC)

The C 245BEE may be turned ON in any one of three discrete ways for 
complete system flexibility - from the front panel standby button, the 12V-
TRIGGER circuit or by the input signal-sensing circuit.  The ON/OFF power 
control is managed by the Automated Turn-On logic or ATO Logic circuit 
that requires the C 245BEE to be switched back to standby mode in the 

same manner by which it was activated.  In other words, if the C 245BEE is 
switched ON via a +12V-control signal, it cannot be switched to standby 
mode via the front panel STANDBY button, it must wait for removal of the 
+12V-control signal.  In practice, you probably would use only one of the 
methods once your C 245BEE is installed.

NOTE

 

If the +12V TRIGGER IN/INPUT SENSE switch is set to OFF, the presence or absence of +12V trigger input or any input signal at the CHANNEL A IN or 
CHANNEL B IN sockets will not have any effect on the C 245BEE, effectively defeating both features.
