DSWPRO REMOTE CONTROL
DSWPRO Series subwoofers come with a
credit card sized remote control. All com-
mands are sent to the subwoofer via IR
control. The IR receiver is located on the
front of the subwoofer when the subwoofer
is in its downward firing configuration.
The remote control has the
following features:
• Power
• Volume
• 4 Button Phase Control
(0, 90, 180 and 270 degree settings)
• 4 Button Polk Room Optimizer
(
PRO
™
) presets
• Mute function
• Night function allows you to hear low-level
bass detail at lower volumes. If you have
the volume at 30 and press “night,“ the
volume is reduced by 50%, in this example
to 15. Pressing “night“ a second time
restores the volume to its original setting.
Pressing Volume+ (or Volume-) incrementally
increases (or decreases) the volume in the
normal manner and takes the subwoofer
out of “night“ mode. Also, the LED shines
at a reduced intensity when the subwoofer
is in “night“ mode.
• Reset button restores the woofer’s settings to
factory presets. Hold down for two (2) seconds.
• LED turns LED On/Off. The amplifier
remains active.
Important: To activate the remote control for
the first time, remove the plastic tab.
WHAT IS THAT BLINKING BLUE LIGHT?
Behind the logo badge on the front of your subwoofer there is a blue LED. The blue
light blinks whenever you press a button on the subwoofer’s remote control. The
light lets you know that the subwoofer has received the command and is enabling
the function you’ve selected. The following table describes each button’s function
and how the LED communicates to you:
Power LED is on when power is active and is off when power is
not active. (Pressing the LED button on the remote will also
turn the LED off.)
Volume LED will blink a 2-digit code indicating volume setting from
0 to 40 (i.e., if the volume is turned up to 28, the LED will
flash two long blinks followed by eight short blinks).
Mute LED blinks slowly when “mute” is selected.
Phase 0 degrees—1 blink; 90 degrees—2 blinks;
180 degrees—3 blinks; 270 degrees—4 blinks.
Night LED is on at a lower intensity; volume is reduced by 50%.
PRO Presets Cabinet—1 blink; Corner—2 blinks;
Mid-wall—3 blinks; Mid-room—4 blinks.
Reset LED will blink 4 times.
LED Turns LED on/off. The amplifier remains active
