Using the Preamplifier with the Remote Control
1. If not already done, open the back of the remote control by removing the two Phillips
head screws and gently shaking the back cover off the remote unit. Locate the battery
holder and install the two AAA batteries supplied in the correct directions as marked
in the battery holder, with plus on each battery corresponding with the plus sign in the
holder. Replace the back cover of the remote and re-install the screws. (Fit the battery
as shown in the instruction.)
2. The system can be powered on and off with the power button on the remote control.
3. Use the remote control wand’s source buttons to select the desired source.
4. Use the remote control’s volume button to adjust the desired playing level. Increase
the volume by pressing the up button on the remote control., and decrease the volume
by pressing the down button on the remote control.
5. If the system is in mute, (i.e. the Mute LED on the preamplifier’s front panel is
flashing), press the mute button on the remote control to take the system out of mute
mode and put it into operate mode.
Pressing the volume up button on the remote
control unit will also reset the system out of mute mode
. Note that pressing the
volume down button on the remote will not affect the Mute/operating state of the
preamplifier.
6. Use the phase button on the remote unit to toggle the phase status of the system. If the
system is in phase correct mode, click the Phase button once to put it into phase inverted
mode. The Phase LED will turn from off to red when the system is changed to phase
invert.
7. Use the remote control’s Left Balance and Right Balance buttons to set the channel balance
status of the preamplifier. Pressing the Left or right Balance buttons will signal the
preamplifier to go into channel balance adjustment mode. The numeric display window
displays a bar on the left of the numeric display when the Left Balance button is pressed,
and a bar to the right of the display when the Right Balance button is pressed. The numeric
display also shows the channel imbalance offset value.
8. Use the Fade button on the remote control to change the volume level down to 20 if the
current level is higher than 20. The Fade button acts as a shortcut to allow you to quickly
turn down the volume of the preamp to level 20. If the current level is below 20, then
pressing the Fade button has no effect.
Using the Tape Loop to monitor recordings
The TL 6.5 has two separate tape inputs, a monitor function, and a tape dubbing system
designed into the control hardware and software. These controls
will prevent the possibility of
howl from tape loop feedback between the tape inputs and the record outputs.
If you use a tape deck that gives you the capability of monitoring the recording, i.e. listening to
the recording while it is taking place, you can use the TL 6.5’s Tape Loop function to take
advantage of this feature. Connect the tape’s input and output cables to the TL 6.5’s Tape Out
