DMC-1 Front Panel Features
Power Button
This turns the DMC-1 on or o. It is a non-
latching momentary button. If you press
Z II rst, it can turn on Zone 2 (even if the
Main Zone is o).
IMPORTANT – Please note the DMC-1
requires initialization after the power cord
is plugged into the AC receptacle. Push and
hold the power button for approx. 5 seconds.
The unit will power up after this small delay.
The second push of the power button will
turn the unit o and after this the unit will
turn on and o in a normal fashion.
Rotate this manual control clockwise to
increase the volume. The dB level will
appear in the front panel display. When
turning on a new source, make sure the
level is low, such as -80 dB and increase
it slowly. The dB display becomes less
negative as the volume increases.The
DMC-1 volume control is velocity sensitive.
If turned slowly, the volume will change
in small increments. If rotated quickly,
level change will be made in larger
increments.
Note: When the DMC-1 is turned on, it has a
deliberately slow and smooth volume ramp
from silence, up to the level that was set when
the unit was last turned o. It can also be
programmed to come up to a preset volume
you have selected, rather than the previous
volume.The knob does not turn when volume
is operated from the DMC-1 remote.
