The ESC 360 offers two unique
user-convenience features:
Automatic Turn-On/Shut-Down
and Automatic Digital-Input
Selection.
The Automatic Turn-On feature
will turn the ESC 360 on as
soon as a source connected to
its digital inputs (such as DVD,
CD player with digital output,
or any other device featuring a
coaxial or optical digital out-
put) is switched on, or as soon
as the unit connected to its
last-used analog input starts
outputting sound.
When using digital inputs, the
Automatic Turn-On can be
activated by turning on either
one of the connected digital
sources such as a DVD player
or a CD player with digital out-
put. When using analog inputs
(TV or AUX), Automatic Turn-
On is available only for the
device that was last listened
to before the ESC 360 shut
down. In order to listen to the
other device, the ESC 360
input needs to be manually
selected by using the Input
button on the product and on
the remote, which, in turn,
disables the Automatic Digital-
Input Selector until the ESC
360 is shut down.
The Automatic Turn-Off shuts
the unit down five minutes
after all sources connected to
its digital inputs are powered
down and the device connect-
ed to its selected analog input
stops playing.
The Automatic Digital-Input
Selector automatically selects
the source connected to its
digital inputs when that
source is powered on. Upon
power down of this digital
unit, if no other source is on,
the ESC 360 will switch itself
off after five minutes. If the
analog source that was select-
ed prior to the digital source
turning on is still playing, the
ESC 360 will switch back to
that other source. Once a
digital source is powered on
and selected as an input, turn-
ing on a device connected to
the other digital input will not
switch the input until the
selected digital device is first
powered off.
These two features can only be
used if the customer does not
manually turn the ESC 360 on
or off, and does not manually
select an input source. Once
either of these selections is
made manually, the automatic
features are disabled as fol-
lows:
1. If the ESC 360 is turned off
manually, it will not turn back
on automatically for at least
five minutes. During these five
minutes, it can be turned on
either from the front panel or
via the remote control.
2. Once an input source is
selected manually, the Auto-
matic Source-Selection feature
will remain disabled until the
ESC 360 shuts down.
3. Once any one of the two
devices connected to the ESC
360 digital inputs is powered
on and its input is selected by
the ESC 360, the device con-
nected to the other digital
input of the ESC 360 cannot be
automatically selected until
the already selected digital
device is powered down.
