Using the Opalum Furniture Sound System
7.1 On/off
The Opalum Furniture Sound System has automatic on/off. This means that whenever a source
starts playing the system will switch on. Likewise the system will go to standby automatically if no
source is playing for more than 5 minutes. Manual on/off is still possible, just press the Standby
button on the front, or use the IR standby command if such has been learned. In this case the
automatic on is disabled. In standby the system consumes less than 0.5 watt.
7.2 Volume offset adjustment
Even if the volume is normally controlled by your source, like for instance your TV or mobile
phone, the Opalum Furniture Sound System offers a volume offset adjustment feature. This
feature allows you to adjust the overall amplification level in the same way as an ordinary AV
receiver would do. Increasing the volume offset will make your system play louder, but could also
mean that the lowest volume setting on your source still could be too loud for a quiet living room
late at night. Decreasing the volume offset will make your system play lower, but could also mean
that the highest volume setting on your source isn’t enough to get your party rocking. So, either
adjust depending on the need of the moment, or find an adjustment that suites your need the
best. The adjustment is stored automatically and since it’s the amplification that is adjusted, it will
affect all sources.
7.2 Bluetooth
To connect your mobile device or PC to the Opalum Furniture Sound System using Bluetooth you
first need to pair the devices. The Opalum Furniture Sound System will only pair if it is put into
pairing mode. Do this by pressing the “Bluetooth pairing” button on the front. While the status
indicator flashes blue, the system is in pairing mode. The pairing mode will terminate
automatically when a device pairing is completed, or after a timeout of 5 minutes. Please see the
user guide of your device for how to pair. The Opalum Furniture Sound System is identified by the
name “Opalum FSS xx:xx”, where xx:xx is a unique number. After pairing is completed the
Opalum Furniture Sound System remembers the device, and vice versa – so next time you just
simply connect, no pairing needed.
7.4 IR learning
The Opalum Furniture Sound System can learn to understand IR commands from most remote
controls. You decide which buttons to use for which function and simply use the IR learning
function to teach the Opalum Furniture Sound System. These are the functions that you can
assign buttons to:
