While DSD is playing, any page that has level meters will show a
DSD logo instead of the meters. As soon as DSD playback is
stopped, the level meter page will return.

3.5.7 Test Tone Function

Intended for system testing and calibration, Hilo’s Test Tone provides a 1 kHz audio signal which can be sent to any
output or combination of outputs. The tone level can be controlled in 0.5 dB increments from a new dedicated screen.
For reference, the same screen also shows the input levels coming into Hilo.

Using the menu button on the Output side (here selected
as Line Out), choose the output to which you want to send
the test tone.

Use the On/Off button to engage/disengage the test tone.

The initial level is set at -40 dBu. The fader and front
panel rotary control allow you to adjust the level in 0.5 dB
increments.

Multiple outputs can receive the test tone simultaneously.

Inputs Meters are shown to allow monitoring of any
signal being received by the Hilo.

3.5.8 Power Up State

Hilo can be set to toggle between two power up states:

Standby: In this mode, when AC power is applied and the back panel power switch is in the
ON position (show graphic), Hilo will be in Standby mode until the front panel STANDBY
switch is pressed. Then the Hilo will power up and be ready for use.

On: In this mode, when AC power is applied and the back panel power switch is in the ON
position, Hilo will power up and be ready for use. This is a typical setting when Hilo is
placed in an equipment rack with a single master power switch for all of the equipment in the
rack.
