17.1 Using R-com
R-com keys primarily provide control of the functions
most often used on CD players, preamplifiers, integrated
amplifiers and tuners. In order to extend battery life, R-com
will enter a “sleep” mode when unused. It will “wake” on
being touched.
R-com has three operational modes - CD Player mode,
Preamplifier/Integrated amplifier mode and Tuner mode.
Its default mode is CD player. When awake in CD Player
mode, all R-com keys will illuminate green. To switch the
R-com into Preamplifier/Integrated amplifier mode or Tuner
mode press the
pre
or
tun
keys respectively. The
pre
or
tun
key will then illuminate white. To switch R-com back into
CD player mode either press the
pre
or
tun
key again.
