Remote/Local Control
When the amplifier receives a command over the remote interface, it automatically switches
to REMOTE operation, pressing the LOCAL key on the front panel returns the unit to normal
manual local operation. Optional mode is when the computer host must send a REMOTE
command for the amplifier to go remote. In this option all status commands can be read while
the amplifier is in local mode and they will not revert the amplifier to remote. An additional
LOCAL command is applied to put amp in local mode if it was set for remote operation
