Maintains consistent front panel display character illumination among all linked components.
Adjusting display intensity for one linked component simultaneously adjusts display intensity for all
other linked components.
Placing the linked
digital audio processor
into standby also places
all linked digital
transports into standby.
Taking the linked
digital audio processor
out of standby also
takes the linked Nº
320S out of standby.
Pressing the play button on a linked digital transport automatically takes the linked digital audio
processor, Nº 320S, and power amplifier(s) out of
standby
and selects the associated input on the
linked digital audio processor and Nº 320S.
Pressing and holding the digital transport remote control select button toggles
between selecting digital transports on the linked digital audio processor
and selecting analog inputs on the linked Nº 320S. Pressing and releasing the
digital transport remote control select button scrolls through all available
digital or analog inputs (depending on whether the digital audio processor
or Nº 320S is selected). The digital transport front panel display indicates the
name and volume level of the selected input.
Placing the linked Nº 320S into standby will not place the linked Nº 30,
Nº 30.5, Nº 30.6, Nº 31, or Nº 31.5 into standby:
• if the linked digital audio processor is in Record Mode
• if the linked digital transport is in Record Link Mode
A warning message will appear on the linked digital audio processor and
digital transport to indicate that these components are involved in a recording
session.
Configuring the linked
digital audio processor
for an HDCD recording
session automatically
attenuates the linked
Nº 320S master volume
level the required –6dB.
