OPERATION MANUAL 088 PREAMP
With the exception of the AC mains switch, which is located on the rear panel of the
unit, all operating controls are located on the front panel of the preamp.
AC MAINS SWITCH
The AC mains switch (15) which completely disconnects the AC power to the unit
is located on the rear panel of the 088 above the AC mains terminal. By switching to
the ON position the stand-by transformer is powered up.
SWITCHING ON AND OFF
The POWER switch (8) switches the preamp on and off, presuming the AC mains
switch is in the ON position.
With the POWER switch (8) set to “OFF” all functions of the preamp are powered
down.
Flipping the POWER switch (8) from “OFF” to “STBY”, the POWER LED (7) lights
up orange. This shows that the unit is in stand-by mode.
When the POWER switch is in “STBY” position the unit can be switched on and off
by pulling up the POWER switch, pushing the POWER button on the BURMESTER
remote control, the Burlink interface or by the DC IN jack.
In operating mode (ON) the POWER LED (7) lights up red and all functions of the
preamp are activated.
PLEASE NOTE: Always switch off the preamp with the POWER switch first
before bringing the AC mains switch into OFF position.
VOLUME LEVEL
The Volume selector (6) controls the volume level in 61 steps from 00 (mute) to 60
(maximum volume) or in dB-steps from MUTE to +5dB (maximum volume with LOW
amplification) or + 21dB (maximum volume with HIGH amplification). The selected
volume level will be shown in the alphanumeric display (4).
The volume selector also controls functions in the SETUP menus.
REMOTE
Connecting DC OUT (25) to the corresponding DC IN-jack of another BURMESTER-
unit offers the function to switch on or off this other unit simultaneous by the 088.
In this case, the 088 has the master function.
Connecting DC IN (26) to the corresponding DC OUT-jack of another BURMESTER-
unit offers the function to switch on or off the 088 simultaneous by the other unit.
In this case, 088 has the slave function.
BurLink
To the BURmester-LINK interface plugs (16), (17) a computer system e.g. PC,
CRESTRON™, AMX™ can be connected to the preamp 088. The computer system
allows a comfortable control of your HighEnd system using for example an
individual programmable touch panel. With the LEDs beside the plugs named
T and R (Transmit and Receive) you are able to monitor whether data exchange
is working.
You will find the commands to control the
088
in the chapter BurLink.
