Standby button & LED indicator
The front panel Standby button will toggle the player between its fully 
operational status and a standby mode that leaves the player off, yet ready 
to respond to system commands via any of the supported control options 
(e.g. IR input, DC trigger, CAN Bus, or RS-232). 
The current state of the player is indicated by the LED on the Standby 
button on the front panel. When the unit is powered and switched on, this 
LED indicates the following:
• on
=
standby
• flashing (on power-up)
=
initialization
• off
=
operate
• on
(dim)
=
display timeout
• flashing (after power-up)
=
AC mains voltage out of range
If you are not going to use the player for an extended period of time, e.g. 
vacation or other travel, we suggest you disconnect it from the AC mains. 
Please be certain that the player is in standby prior to disconnecting it from 
the AC mains.
Also, it is a good practice to physically disconnect any and all valuable 
electronics from the AC mains during electrical storms, as a lightning 
strike anywhere near your home can put a tremendous surge on the AC 
mains that will easily damage any piece of electronics, no matter how well 
designed and protected. The best protection in the case of severe electrical 
storms is simply to remove the electronics from any connection with the 
power grid.
