4. Automatic source activation through signal recognition.
As soon as a signal is present, it will be recognized by BOSSCOM PL Switch
Airplay and a Powerlink signal with circuit voltage will be generated. If the
source no longer delivers a signal (e.g. if it is turned off or muted), an
intelligent circuit shall provide a delay of approximately 1 minute - only then the
Powerlink signal will be turned off and the B&O®speakers go into Standby
mode. This is necessary, for example, for longer speaking pauses in audio books
and gives you sufficient time to select the next song for playback from your
music library.

Automatic source activation at
IN 1
through external circuit
voltage.
If the source connected to INPUT 1 has a circuit voltage (e.g. B&O®Powerlink
or Loewe®TVs with circuit voltage) then they have the great advantage of not
being required to wait the otherwise necessary time delay of approx. 1 min in
order to be able to hear the active audio source in the other inputs once
again. This function is only available for INPUT 1 and can be turned on or off
via a sliding DIP switch 1 on the bottom side. This type of source activation is
preferable to the otherwise commonly used method of signal recognition. If no
source is connected to INPUT 1, this trigger function should also be activated.
6. Automatic source activation for TOSLINK INPUT with Apple®Airport
Express.
A special characteristic occurs if the Apple®Airport Express is connected to
TOSLINK INPUT. The BOSSCOM Powerlink Switch Airplay is optimized so as to
evaluate the special SPDIF signal from Apple®Airport Express - i.e. a signal is
no longer present (e.g. if Airplay is no longer active or the iPod®is muted), the
SPDIF signal is turned off immediately, and the B&O®speakers go into Standby
mode - the otherwise necessary delay time of approx. 1 minute is also not
necessary for Apple®Airport Express. Please follow the DIP Switch instruction
on the page 9.
