Operating the Home Theater Standard
After the Home Theater Standard is connected to source devices and amplifiers, and
system setup configured, the Home Theater Standard is ready for operation.
ON/OFF/STAND-BY
1. Insert the AC power cord into the IEC power connector (55) on the Home Theater
Standard. Insert the other end into the AC wall receptacle.
2. Move the back panel power switch (54) into the up (on) position.
3. The red stand-by LED on the front panel illuminates. The words PLEASE WAIT,
INITIALIZING appear in the front panel display (23). When the initializing message
disappears, the Home Theater Standard is ready to be powered on.
The front panel display shows volume, input information, and selected mode. After
five seconds of inactivity, the display becomes blank.
4.
Use either the front panel power button (1) or the remote control HTS key (57)
power on the Home Theater Standard. The blue power LED (2) on the front panel
illuminates. The Home Theater Standard is now in the operational mode.
5. To return to stand-by, press the power button (1) or HTS key (57) again.
Note
Krell recommends that the back panel power switch remain up (on) at all times.
TAPE INPUT AND OUTPUT
The Home Theater Standard has a discrete tape input and output. The tape output is
used to send an input signal from S-1, S-2, S-3, S-4, B-l, or an input signal from VCR1
to a recording device or processor. You can use the tape feature in three ways:
1. Use the tape input to playback pre-recorded tapes.
2.
Use the tape input to compare the output signal of a three-head analog tape recorder
to the output signal of an audio source. Press the tape button (14) or key (69)
switch between the tape recorder output (LED illuminated) and the input source (LED
not illuminated).
Press a device key a second time, after the device has been selected, to change the
tape output source bus to the currently selected zone. Tape out can come from the
main zone or zone 2.
3.
Use the tape output to create a processor loop, when the Home Theater Standard is
connected to a graphic equalizer or other ancillary equipment. Connect the
equipment to the Home Theater Standard tape outputs (37) as described in the
equipment manufacturer’s manual. Press the tape button (14) or key (69) to switch
between the processor output (LED illuminated) and the input source (LED
illuminated).
