operation
base features
When all three
channels have been
activated, you
should see the
three red LEDs
softly illuminated
(1)
,
showing that all
three channels have
energised. Then the
amplifier is ready to play source material
through the system. Raise the volume level at
your av processor or preamplifier slowly at
first, until sound is replayed through the
audio system. Sit back and enjoy!
For added convenience TAG McLaren Audio
has integrated the main control functions for
the av processor AV32R and the dvd player
DVD32R. The complete audio-visual system
can be started, stopped or muted from the
tiny remote control of the 250x3R.
confirming operation
Whenever the 250x3R receives valid infra
red (IR) instructions from the remote control
the 250x3R acknowledges by flashing the
top LED on the right front panel, above the
power button.
250x3R mute
The sound output of all channels can be
muted using the single ‘mute amp’ button on
the remote. This is a toggle action command
- one press will mute and a second press will
un-mute.
When muted the 250x3R has only
disconnected the loudspeakers. The amplifier
is still running and the sound will be restored
instantly when the
mute
button is pressed
again. When the 250x3R is muted the
bottom LED on the right front panel, above
the power button, will illuminate.
1) the remote of the 250x3R is identical to that of the 100x5R, ensuring that both amplifiers can be controlled with the same remote
2) If the AV32R is connected to the 250x3R then the AV32R can do this for you. Details can be found in the AV32R user manual
When you have completed the set-up and
have connected all cables between all
components, ensure that the volume control
on the av processor/preamplifier is set to
minimum before reconnecting the mains
plugs and switching on all equipment.
Make sure you use the mains cable supplied
for your 250x3R.
switch on
Press the power button in. The blue power
LED will come on.
The three channel
status indicators
will flash, as the
amplifier channels
power up
sequentially to
prevent excessively
high current demand from the
mains supply.
power up
1) if the 250x3R is connected to the AV32R then the AV32R will control the intensity of all LEDs after a few seconds. For details see the
AV32R user manual.
The 250x3R is
equipped with
a sophisticated
micro-controller
to monitor and
control the
250x3R. The
performance of
this processor,
activated by a
tiny remote
control
(1)
, allows
for class
leading
ergonomics, for
example the
flexibility to not
only mute all
channels
simultaneously but
also to have individual control over each
power amplifier module. So if you play
CDs in stereo you only need to switch on
the left and right channels
