6.2. DB1 Initial Setup

When the DB1 enters setup mode it will display the
setup Home Menu illustrated above.

The four menu items provide the following functions:

Display
By default, the display is set to go dim after 30
seconds of button inactivity to reduce visual distraction
in normal operation. Alternatively, it may be set to go
off altogether. As soon as a button is pressed, the
display becomes fully bright and is always bright in
setup mode.

On/Off
In this context,

Off refers to the Standby condition. The

function may be set to

Manual, Auto(matic), or via the

Trigger 1 input. The default is Manual.

To fully disconnect the DB1 from mains

power, it is necessary to switch off the

mains outlet socket or withdraw the

mains plug.

If

Manual is selected, the DB1 front panel standby

button or an RS232 home automation system must be
used to switch between on and off.

If

Auto is selected the DB1 will switch on automatically

when an input audio signal is detected and off
following a specified time after the input signal stops.
The automatic switch-off delay time can be set in the
subsequent menu by pressing the button when

Auto

is highlighted. Accessing the delay time will also select

Auto as the switching method.

If

Trigger 1 is selected, 12V at the Trigger 1 input will

switch the DB1 on and 0V will switch it off. To proceed
with DB1 setup, ensure that the On/Off parameter is
initially set to

Manual.

Trigger 2
Enables DB1 presets to be selected in turn by a
12V control signal on the Trigger 2 input. Selecting

In engages this control feature and selecting Out
disengages it.

Out should be selected if your DB1 is

integrated within an RS232 home automation system.
The default is

Out.

Pressing the button while

In is highlighted sets

Trigger 2 as the switching mode and allows the user
to select which Presets correspond to 12V and 0V at
the

Trigger 2 input. If In is the selected mode, Preset

switching via the front panel buttons in normal mode is
then disabled. The default presets are Preset 1 for 0V
and Preset 2 for 12V.

Audio
The

Audio option in the setup home page provides

access to all the DB1 audio setup parameters. Select

Audio to move on to the next setup stage.

About
Displays the DB1 model number and internal software
version.
