bk reference 31 User Manual

 

45

The following outlines the normal day-to-day operation of your processor from the supplied universal remote or 
directly from your processor’s front panel. The universal remote is also capable of controlling other equipment and 
storing sequences of commonly used commands. Refer to the separate remote manual for details on these 
functions. 

The main power switch on the front panel of your processor must be on for the processor to operate. When this 
switch is off all power is removed from your processor. This prevents turning it back on with the remote control. 
You can use the main power switch for normal day to day operation but we suggest you use the sleep function 
instead so that the processor can be turned on and off from the remote. After turning on the main power you must 
wait a few seconds while your processor restores its internal memory. You may want to turn off the main power 
switch when your processor will be idle for extended periods of time or during periods of power line fluctuations. 
Your processor will not lose its memory while the main power switch is off.

Normally you will simply put your processor to sleep (standby) when not in use. Sleep mode keeps a bare 
minimum of functions running in order to allow remote control operation and fast start up. Note that the front panel 
SLEEP button is lit while your processor is asleep and is off when your processor is operating. Also note that the 
remote POWER button is a ‘power toggle’ and will put your processor in and out of sleep. OFF will always put the 
processor into sleep. B&K or AUDIO will always wake up your processor and set the remote to control the 
processor
