USING THE NAD S70 REMOTE CONTROL
The NAD S70 is a "menu-driven" remote control, where many of its buttons vary
in function, depending on which Menu was selected. The display next to these
buttons indicates which functions are available. In normal operation, the Main
Menu is the starting point. Figure No.1 shows how the menus are organised.
The Volume Control, Mute and On/Off buttons will always perform the same
function, regardless of whichever Menu was selected.
The display will always turn itself off, 25 seconds after the last button has been
pressed, to prolong battery life. Pressing any button, other than the volume
buttons, will activate the display again.
On/Off
Press this button to switch components from the Operating to the Stand-by mode
and vice versa.
As this is a toggle command, switching between Stand-by and Operating mode,
you may consider to switch all components to operating mode so that using
On/Off button on the S70 all components are synchronised in status: Press the
power button on the front panel of each remote controlled Silver Series
component so that all are turned on and in Operating mode. By connecting NAD-
Link between all components, they will remain in synchronisation with each other,
even if one of the components is just out of the S70’s range. Refer also to chapter
NAD-Link below. The On/Off function is always available, regardless of whichever
Menu the S70 is in.
Mute & Display back light
Press the Mute Button to temporarily switch off the sound from the amplifier or
pre-amplifier. Press Mute again to restore sound.
The Mute button also engages the back-lighting for the display so that the S70
can easily be used in dark environments. Press the Mute button for 2 seconds to
engage the back-lighting. The light will turn itself off automatically after 15
seconds to conserve battery power. The Mute and Back-light functions are always
available, regardless of whichever Menu the S70 is in.
Volume (Up & Down)
Press the lower button to decrease volume, the upper button to increase volume.
Using the Volume buttons doesn’t activate the display. The Volume function is
always available, regardless of whichever Menu the S70 is in.
Main Menu: Operating components in the system
The other available functions of the S70 depend on whichever Menu has been
selected. From the Main menu, (figure No. 2) you can select which component
you wish to operate, such as amplifier, tuner, CD player, etc. The S70 comes
standard with a selection of Component Menus, such as Amplifier Component,
Pre-amplifier Component, Tuner Component, CD Component, etc. The
commands from within these Component Menus correspond with those on the
front panel or the original remote control of the component.
• Select Main Menu by pressing the button next to "EXIT" in any of the other
