will Un-Mute the unit.
Input Select:
In Input Select Mode, turning the encoder will select the next
adjacent input corresponding to the direction of the turn.
Balance Adjust:
In Balance Adjust Mode, turning the Encoder clockwise will shift the
balance weighting towards the right channel while turning it counter-clockwise will
bias the balance towards the left channel.
Plugging It In
The power supply has a 5 foot cord that terminates at a 2.5 mm female barrel plug.
Plug the “wallwart” head into any nominal AC outlet and insert the barrel plug into
the “12 VDC” jack in the rear panel of the LDR6.
Each time the AC power supply unit is plugged in or energized while plugged into
the LRDx, the LED’s on the front panel of the LDRx will flash briefly and then go dark
indicating the unit has power and is ready to be used (although the unit will remain
turned off until turned on).
There is no power supply on/off switch on the LDRx. The LDRx is continuously
powered. When the LDRx unit is turned off, the power draw is de diminimis and the
DCU reverts to a low power standby mode.
Turning The Unit
On
Encoder Knob:
When the unit is off (panel LEDs are all off) the unit can be turned
on by momentarily pressing in and releasing the front panel Encoder Knob. Upon
powering up all the LEDs will briefly flash leaving the Status LEDs lit at all times. On
the LDR6 the LED corresponding to the currently selected input will also bit lit.
Remote:
The unit can also be turned on via the remote by momentarily pressing the
red Power button on the remote.
Turning The Unit
Off
Encoder Knob:
When the unit is on, the unit can be turned off by pressing and
holding in the Encoder Knob for more than 2 seconds but less than 5 seconds before
releasing. All the LEDs on the front panel will briefly flash and then go dark
indicating the unit is now off.
Remote:
The unit can also be turned off via the remote by momentarily pressing the
red Power button on the remote. As with the Encoder Knob, all the LEDs on the
front panel will briefly flash and then go dark indicating the unit is now off.
Controlling
Volume
Volume is adjusted via the Encoder Knob or via the Raise/Lower buttons on the
Remote.
When volume is adjusted down to minimum level (step 0) the unit is fully Muted
(the input signal is effectively disconnected) and the Status LED blinks slowly.
Similarly, the Status LED will also blink slowly when the volume is at 100% (step 70).
There is no external counter or display indicating which step you are at between
minimum (step 0) and maximum (step 70).
