Hafler IRIS Owner's Manual - Key Operation
(This “handshake” muting of IRIS Tuner by IRIS
Preamplifier, when the Tuner is de-selected, is employed
to guarantee that the “on” Tuner cannot “crosstalk” into the
audio of your other selected Preamplifier sources--thus
allowing you to leave the Tuner powered for maximum
remote convenience.)
KEY OPERATION
All of the KEY functions of the Tuner panel which are
convenient from remote operation are available from the 8
remote KEYS.
STORE is left as mainframe only for maximum memory
security of station presets.
The UP function is not used, as full MANUAL UP/DOWN
operation is not remoted--and SCAN is always UP, unless,
as on the mainframe, DOWN is commanded before or
during a scan.
To remotely turn a DOWN-SCAN back into an UP-SCAN,
key in STOP, then re-key SCAN.
You will be pleased to find that the order of keys on the IRIS
remote is identical to those on the IRIS tuner, and the basic
key operations from remote essentially duplicate the Tuner
mainframe operations.
During all remote commands which the Tuner accepts, the
green REMote legend
(18)
flashes brightly in sync with the
Preamplifier’s red MUTE legend.
CLEAR KEY
The CLR (CLeaR) key on the remote transmitter causes a
3-4
second period of Tuner audio muting with the as-
sociated Tuner red MUTE legend
(19)
lighting.
During this period, the HANDSHAKE mode is interrupted,
so that you may de-select Tuner and make another input
selection for the Preamplifier. If you make no alternate
selection in this period, the Tuner is retained as input
source, and will un-mute at the end of the CLR period. If
you re-select Tuner during the CLR period, the CLR period
is quickly terminated.
