Using the 861
Reference Digital
Surround Controller
Switching on and off
When not playing, the digital surround controller should
be left in the standby state. This ensures that the
components of the digital surround controller operate at
maximum efficiency from the moment you start.
If you are not going to use the digital surround
controller for several days you should switch the unit off
completely at the rear panel, and disconnect it from the
AC power supply.
To switch on from standby
Press Source (front panel), or select a source by
pressing the appropriate source key on the remote;
eg CD.
If the digital surround controller is part of a Meridian
system it will automatically switch on any other unit
in the system, such as the 800 Reference DVD/CD
Player and Meridian DSP Loudspeakers.
To switch to standby
Press Off (front panel or remote).
If you have other Meridian equipment or Meridian
DSP Loudspeakers connected to the digital surround
controller these units will also switch to standby.
