To turn the power of multiple F.C.B.S.-connected units ON/OFF, switch the power ON in order of lowest to highest ID number, and switch the power OFF in order of highest to lowest ID number.

How to set ID number for F.C.B.S.

When the unit is turned on, the display shows the ID number for three seconds.

For a master unit, ID number 1 needs to be assigned.

For a slave unit, set any of ID numbers 2 to 4.

Set F.C.B.S. ID PM10FU
While holding F.C.B.S. ID on the rear panel, press Power Button .
Turn INPUT SELECTOR on the unit to select an ID number.
Turn the unit off.
Again turn the unit on.

The setting is saved.

The unit registered as a slave shows “SLAVE” on the display.

NOTE

If using this unit by itself as a stereo amplifier, set the ID number to “0” (Default setting is “0”).

If the ID number is set to a number other than “0”, this unit cannot be used for standalone operation.
