Nº 320S Basic Operation
Link Controls Linking Mark Levinson components allows them to share controls
such as display intensity, standby, playback, input selection, and
record.
Note the following:
• Linked components must be powered on ONE AT A TIME in
the specific order listed in step 4 (page 2-12) to ensure proper
functioning of Link controls.
• Link controls must be enabled on the linked digital transport(s)
linking menu, which allows activation and deactivation of
individual Link controls. Refer to the appropriate digital
transport owner’s manual for additional information.
• Some Mark Levinson digital transports accommodate a maximum
of four front panel display characters. In these cases, certain
input names appear abbreviated on the front panel display.
For example, an input named No320S will appear as No32 on
the digital transport front panel display even though the
input is associated with the Nº 320S.
• The linked Nº 320S and power amplifier(s) must be in the
same standby-state to allow the linked power amplifier(s) to
enter standby after a power failure.
The slave chains shown here are made
according to the requirements listed in the
table on page 2-11.
The slave chain at the far left links one
digital audio processor (Nº 390S); one
preamplifier (Nº 320S); and two power
amplifiers (Nº 432 and Nº 431).
The slave chain shown to the immediate
left links one digital audio processor
(Nº 360S); two digital transports (Nº 390S
and Nº 37); one preamplifier (Nº 320S);
and one power amplifier (Nº 432).
