The ESC333 offers two unique
user-convenience features:
Automatic Turn-On/Shut-Down
and Automatic Digital-Input
Selection. 
The Automatic Turn-On feature
will turn the ESC333 on as
soon as a source connected to
its digital inputs (such as DVD,
CD player with digital output,
or any other device featuring a
coaxial or optical digital out-
put) is switched on, or as
soon as the unit connected to
its last-used analog input
starts outputting sound.
When using digital inputs, the
Automatic Turn-On can be 
activated by turning on either
one of the connected digital
sources such as a DVD player
or a CD player with digital
output. When using analog
inputs (TV or AUX), Automatic
Turn-On is available only for
the device that was last 
listened to before the ESC333
shut down. In order to listen
to the other device, the
ESC333 input needs to be
manually selected by using the
Input button on the product
and on the remote, which, in
turn, disables the Automatic
Digital-Input Selector until the
ESC333 is shut down.
The Automatic Turn-Off shuts
the unit down five minutes
after all sources connected 
to its digital inputs are pow-
ered down and the device 
connected to its selected 
analog input stops playing.
The Automatic Digital-Input
Selector automatically selects
the source connected to its
digital inputs when that
source is powered on. Upon
power down of this digital
unit, if no other source is 
on, the ESC333 will switch
itself off after five minutes. 
If the analog source that was
selected prior to the digital
source turning on is still play-
ing, the ESC333 will switch
back to that other source.
Once a digital source is pow-
ered on and selected as an
input, turning on a device
connected to the other digital
input will not switch the input
until the selected digital
device is first powered off. 
These two features can only be
used if the customer does not
manually turn the ESC333 on
or off, and does not manually
select an input source. Once
either of these selections is
made manually, the automatic
features are disabled 
as follows:
1. If the ESC333 is turned off
manually, it will not turn back
on automatically until five
minutes after the source con-
nected to the ESC333 is shut
down. During these five min-
utes, it can be turned on
either from the front panel or
via the remote control.
2. Once an input source is
selected manually, the
Automatic Source-Selection
feature will remain disabled
until the ESC333 shuts down.
3. Once any one of the two
devices connected to the
ESC333 digital inputs is 
powered on and its input is
selected by the ESC333, the
device connected to the other
digital input of the ESC333
cannot be automatically
selected until the already-
selected digital device is 
powered down.
