CDSD User Manual
Function Switches and Indicators
Power
The main power switch is on the back of the unit. The chrome power button on the front is a momentary switch that toggles the operation between power on and power save mode every time the user pushes it. During the power save mode the remote control and all front panel functions become inactive.
Default program setting for SA-CD
The CDSD can be programmed to always choose either the stereo or multichannel program from the SA-CD layer every time it reads a SA-CD for the first time. After the CDSD has chosen the default program the user can still manually change the program with the MODE button as described below. The default program is set with the ALT key (see below).
