1. Standby
When the amplifier is plugged into a live wall socket and the POWER
switch is turned ON, it will power up in “standby” mode and the LED
(Light Emitting Diode) in the display will glow red. In this mode only
a small part of the internal circuitry of the Z350 is powered up, so it
consumes very little power and its inputs and outputs are isolated by
relays.
CAUTION: WHEN IN STANDBY MODE THE INTERNAL CIRCUITRY IS
STILL LIVE, SO ALL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS MUST BE FOLLOWED.
2.
The infra-red (IR) remote control receiver is mounted behind the
window, just to the left of the display. It must not be obscured when
the amplifier is to be operated using the remote control handset.
Where possible it is best to arrange that the IR window is in
“line-of-sight” of the remote handset.

4. Headphone socket
The headphones socket will accept a standard 6.35mm stereo jack
plug or adapter. All types of headphones of any impedance may be
used, with one exception: electrostatic headphones are usually
supplied with an adapter unit which must be connected directly to
the loudspeaker terminals. Insertion of a plug into the headphones
socket automatically disconnects the loudspeakers, silencing them.
In order to resume listening to loudspeakers you must unplug the
headphones from this socket. The headphones output is not muted
when switching in and out of STANDBY mode, so it is recommended
that headphones are unplugged from the amplifier before switching
to standby mode and plugged in again after switch-on.
When the STANDBY ellipse is touched (3 second) the Z350 circuitry
will be activated, but the outputs will remain muted for a short period
to allow the internal voltages to stabilise. During this delay period the
LED on turns blue in the display and the display will indicate “MYRYAD”.
When the STANDBY ellipse is touched (3 second) again the amplifier
will be returned to standby mode. The standby LED will glow red
again and the display will be extinguished.
