Notes on energy saving
Automatic power down function
The device features an automatic power-down function. If the DAC 200 detects no operation or no music
signal for a period longer than thirty minutes, it automatically switches to stand-by mode
j
In countries outside the EU, in which the EuP directive has no validity, the automatic power-down feature can
be disabled if necessary
See chapter „System settings“.
General information
The DAC 200 satisfies the requirements of the latest directives concerning energy-saving measures (EuP
directive). The modern design of the mains power supply makes an important contribution to this.
The internal micro-processor constantly ensures that sub-assemblies which are not currently required
are automatically switched off. The micro-processor itself operates in stand-by mode at a relatively low
clock speed, and only responds to the remote control receiver.
In stand-by mode the current drain of the DAC 200 is less than 0.5 Watt.
If you intend not to use the amplifier for a long period, it should be disconnected from the mains socket,
i.e. the mains plug should be withdrawn from the wall socket.
