The Cinema Reference Mach II has a hidden front panel power but-
ton that permits you to remove power from the Cinema Reference
without unplugging the Cinema Reference’s power cord. Because
the Cinema Reference Mach II’s rear panel power cord may be dif-
ficult to access, this front panel power button is ideal when you wish
to make certain the unit remains off during lengthy periods of non-
use (vacation switch), when you want to make certain the unit re-
mains off (while performing sensitive connections), or when you need
to reset the Cinema Reference Mach II (explained below).
The Cinema Reference Mach II operates on a microprocessor. Upon
first getting power (plugging in the Cinema Reference’s AC cord),
this microprocessor powers up and remains on, even if the Cinema
Reference is off. The Cinema Reference’s microprocessor will re-
main on until the Cinema Reference’s power cord is disconnected
or the hidden power button is pressed. While having the micropro-
cessor constantly on, does not pose a problem for the Cinema Ref-
erence, outside events may require you to reset the microproces-
sor. These events might include electrical power outages or brown-
outs, power surges, lightning storms, etc. If you are experiencing
problems operating your Cinema Reference, problems that you did
not experience before, try turning this button off, wait a few minutes,
and then turn the switch on again. If this does not solve your opera-
tional problems, please contact your local ADA Dealer.
Please note, that if the Cinema Reference’s hidden front panel Mas-
ter Power Button is in the (Out) off position, you will not be able to
turn the Cinema Reference on from the front panel Volume Knob,
an IR remote control, an ADA keypad, or a touch screen system.
When this button is set to the off position, you must first push it in to
the on position, prior to using the Cinema Reference.
ADA strongly recommends leaving this button on during normal day-
to-day use. Unless, you are planning to not use the system for a
long period of time, you will most likely leave this button in the on
position.
