record feedback loops in which the associated component
attempts to record its own output signal. Such feedback loops
produce high-level noise that may damage the associated loud-
speakers and other components.

Note

If the associated recording component connected to a record output
connector is also connected to a separate ground (such as a VCR with
a cable TV connection), set the Rec.Out parameter to NONE for all
inputs (unless a recording session is in progress). This helps prevent
low-level electrical noise from degrading performance.

Teach IR

Selecting Teach IR opens the Teach IR menu, which prompts the
selection of the desired IR command. Selecting an IR command
sends the associated infrared signal from the left side of the front
panel display to a learning remote control, allowing Nº32 IR
commands to be sent from a learning remote control even if the
Nº32 remote control is not present.

The Nº32 sends infrared signals at 40kHz, the most common carrier
frequency used in learning remote controls. However, if the
learning remote control seems unable to learn IR commands:

Eliminate obstructions between the learning remote control
and the front panel display IR receiver/transmitter.

Adjust the distance between the learning remote control and
the front panel display IR receiver/transmitter.

Make sure the learning remote control and the front panel
display IR receiver/transmitter are not exposed to strong
sunlight, halogen light, or fluorescent light. This can cause IR
reception to become unreliable.

Replace the learning remote control batteries.

If problems persist, contact an authorized Mark Levinson dealer.

Table 3-2 indicates all available IR commands. For toggle
commands, the Nº32 provides one IR command for the toggle
command as well as separate IR commands for the positive and
negative forms of the toggle command. For instance, the MUTE
KEY IR command teaches the learning remote control to perform
mute button commands, while the GO MUTE IR command teaches
the learning remote control to mute master volume level and the
GO UNMUTE IR command teaches the learning remote control to
unmute the master volume level.
