REMOTE CONTROL FUNCTIONS:
The optional VK-R3 remote control that comes with your VK-40 has the following functions:
Volume Up and Volume Down control
Mute function
Fade Down/Fade Up function
Input source selection 1 through 5
Phase switch
Function switch
Display/POWER switch.
The following describes these functions.
Volume Up and Down
These two buttons are programmed with variable speed volume change profiles. The rate of
volume change will be slow upon initial pressing of the Volume Up or Down buttons. Holding the
button depressed will cause the rate of change to accelerate, allowing for more flexible control
when large changes in volume are required.
Mute
Pressing this button will cause the MUTE function in the VK-40 to toggle between ON and OFF
states. The Mute LED on the VK-40 front panel will reflect the status of the Mute circuit.
Fade
Pressing the FADE button on the VK-R3 remote control will cause the volume to smoothly decay
over the period of several seconds. This allows for a gradual reduction in volume, as opposed to
the instantaneous MUTE function. This can be particularly useful during the presentation or
demonstration of your equipment. When the FADE button is pressed, the volume will go down all
the way to zero (000 on display, unit in Mute).
Pressing the Fade button again will cause the volume to ramp back up to its initial value.
