CONNECTIONS FOR THE STANDBY CONTROL
(POWER CONTROL)
Many AV systems or stereo audio systems consist
of a multitude of individual components. To avoid
the necessity of switching them on and off before
and after every use, many manufacturers have
equipped their devices with what is known as
“POWER CONTROL” circuit or “TRIGGER”. This
kind of remote-controlled standby circuit is used
primarily for preamplifier and power amplifiers. To
employ these functions, direct or indirect cable
connections must be made between the preampli-
fier (or integrated amplifier) and all the devices
which support this function. The “POWER CON-
TROL” function operates in such a way that each
switching on or off of one device in the system (usu-
ally the preamplifier) automatically brings about
the switching on or off of all the connected devices which support this function. Please keep in mind
that all devices which respond to the power control
are not disconnected from the mains network when
switched off. They are set to a standby state instead.
For connecting cables, two-core cables with 3.5 mm
jack plugs (mono) are used. For each connection bet-
ween two devices one of those cables is needed.
If the CD-S7 is to be switched on/off automatically
with the preamplifier or integrated amplifier, then
the cable connections for power control described
below must be made correctly and the “POWER”
switch (4) must be moved to the switched off posi-
tion. If you don't wish to use this function or if the
other components do not support it, all you have to
do is leave out these cable connections.
