Owner’s Reference
DirectStream DAC
Press this front panel button to activate the Ready Mode or to place DirectStream in
Operational Mode. When pressed to activate the Ready Mode, the display as well as the
outputs are turned off, but all the unit’s critical internal circuitry remains active.
If you wish to conserve energy consumed by DirectStream it will be necessary to use
the rear panel power switch. Using this rear panel switch will remove power from critical
components and in order to gain maximum performance levels you will need to turn
DirectStream’s power on at least 3 hours before use.
Should DirectStream need to be rebooted, use the rear panel power switch to power cycle
the instrument. It's best to wait 30
seconds before powering back on.
