Remote Control Functions
The P 5 remote control has a maximum range of approximately 20 - 25 feet (6 - 7.5 meters).
Use only AAA alkaline batteries in the handset and insert them according to the + and – polarity
markings in the battery compartment.
On and Off Buttons
These separate buttons enable programming
unambiguous “hard” off and on commands into a system
controller or to create a macro sequence for a learning-
type remote control.
Note: The On and Off buttons are disabled when the
rear panel Turn On Options switch is set to 12V or AC.
Mute Button
Pressing the Mute button once mutes the signal at all of
the Out jacks except the Record Out. The Mute button on
the front panel will illuminate red while mute is engaged.
Press the Mute button a second time to cancel mute.
Volume ▲ and ▼ Buttons
These buttons control the rotation of the motorized Volume
knob to increase and decrease listening volume levels.
Tone On and Off Buttons
By pressing the Tone On button you engage the tone
control circuit with the boost or cut determined by the
setting of the front panel Bass and Treble knobs.
By pressing the Tone Off button you can turn off the Bass
and Treble tone control circuit, thereby completely
bypassing the tone control circuitry. This will improve
sonic purity by eliminating the small amount of noise and
distortion inherent in tone control circuits. The tone
controls can also be turned on and off from the front panel.
Note: The remote control cannot make Bass and Treble
adjustments. Tone adjustments are only made with the
Bass and Treble knobs on the P 5’s front panel.
Source Input Buttons
Press the input button of the source that you wish to hear.
