The output level will vary with the level of the volume control. Line (Fixed): use this setting when you have connected the Balanced or Single-ended outputs to a recording device. The outputs will remain at a fixed level regardless of the volume control level. 16 N0 519 AUDIO PLAYER / OWNER’S MANUAL Note: the Headphone output is always Variable. • Operation: This menu controls the operation of the № 519 o Power Management Standby: this setting lets you set the Standby mode to one of the following options: Green, Power Save, and Normal. • Green: This mode removes power from almost all of the circuits, allowing the № 519 to be activated only via an IR control signal, a 5V – 12V trigger or a press of the Standby button. This mode provides maximum power conservation and is the factory-default Standby mode. • Power Save: This mode removes power from the audio circuits, but keeps the control and streaming circuitry powered and ready to receive commands from either the front panel controls or the remote control. This mode provides moderate power conservation. • Normal: This mode shuts off the display and mutes its audio outputs, but keeps all of its control, streaming, and audio circuits powered. This mode provides the least amount of power conservation but allows the audio circuits to remain warmed up to deliver optimal performance at all times. Auto Off: this setting lets you engage or disengage the Auto Off function, which puts your № 519 into the Standby mode after 20 minutes of inactivity (no audio signal, and no control input). o Remote Control Trigger: (Normal/Pulsed) This setting configures how the 12V trigger relay data is sent and received. Most components require this to be set at “Normal,” but some products (such as some older Mark Levinson components) require that it be set to Pulsed. Front IR: this toggle allows you to turn the № 519’s front IR receiver on or off. If you have connected the № 519’s rear-panel IR input to an IR control device, set the Front IR receiver to Off to avoid interference. o Display: this menu gives you access to the following display parameters: and reconstructs what was lost in the compression process. Display Intensity: lets you set the brightness of your display to High, Medium, or Low. The factory default setting is High. Clari-Fi Intensity: The Intensity control adjusts the amount of reconstruction applied to the signal, and can be applied according to your individual taste – there is no “correct” amount. Display Timeout: lets you choose how long the display remains lit after the last time a control is operated. Choose from 5 seconds, 10 seconds, 20 seconds, 30 seconds, or disable it. • Input Setup: The Input Setup menu allows you to customize the following parameters for the selected input. o Enabled: use this setting to enable or disable the input from displaying in the Input menu (when turning the Input knob) o Name: use this setting to rename an input to a custom name of your preference. Note that the Bluetooth, Network, and streaming services cannot be renamed. o Offset: the output level of audio devices can vary between brands and models, making some devices sound louder or quieter than others. The Offset adjustment allows you to precisely compensate for that variance, allowing all associated devices in your system to output at a similar volume level. The setting offers a range of –10dB to +10dB, in 0.5dB steps. Whenever an input is selected, the № 519 applies the setting of the Offset parameter to the volume level of the outputs. o DAC Filter (PCM): this setting lets you set the filter characteristic: FAST: this filter has a steep roll-off characteristic that may be better suited when listening to electric or electronic music o DSD Filter (USB Audio and Network inputs only): The DSD Filter is a low-pass filter that can be set to 47kHz, 50kHz, 60kHz, or 70kHz to reduce unwanted ultrasonic noise. There is no “correct” setting for the DSD filter: it can be set according to personal preference or to suit the type of music to which you are listening. o Play CD upon insertion (CD input only): when enabled, a CD will automatically begin playback when inserted. • Network: this menu offers access to the following network-related parameters o Wi-Fi/Wired: this setting displays the current network mode for the № 519: Wireless, Wi-Fi, or SoftAP. SoftAP: this mode enables convenient first-time setup by broadcasting a network from the № 519. To use SoftAP, follows the instructions in QUICK SETUP AND LISTEN > Wi-Fi Setup. The Wi-Fi icon at the top of the screen will appear with an exclamation point when in SoftAP mode. o Unit Name: displays a customizable unit name that will appear when people interact with the № 519. o IP: shows the IP address currently assigned (by DHCP or manually) to your № 519. SLOW: this filter has a gradual roll-off characteristic that is well suited to most types of music o SSID: displays the network name that the № 519 is either connected to or broadcasting, depending on the mode. MPHAS: this is a minimum-phase filter that may be better suited when listening to acoustic music o Connection Details: use this setting to view current network configurations. Although the above descriptions are offered as a guide, feel free to set the DAC filter according to your own tastes o Clari-Fi: setting this option to ON activates HARMAN Clari-Fi® music restoration technology circuitry for the selected input. Clari-Fi analyzes compressed digital audio files during playback DHCP: lets you toggle DHCP mode (network auto-configuration) on or off. The factory default setting is On. When the mode is set to Off, you can specify a static IP and Subnet address for your № 519. NOTE: the setting under Connection Details is read-only. Access Configure > Wired/Wireless to toggle DHCP on and off.

If problems persist, contact your authorized Mark Levinson dealer. NO POWER Examine the power cord to ensure that it is connected to both the AC mains connector and a working, unswitched electrical outlet. Make sure the player is powered on with the rear-panel Power switch. Examine the electrical circuit breaker to ensure that power is being supplied to the electrical outlet to which the player is connected. Make sure the player is not in standby. The front-panel standby LED illuminates fully and continually when the player is On. The LED flashes slowly when the player is in Standby mode. REMOTE CONTROL DOES NOT OPERATE Eliminate obstructions between the remote control IR transmitter and the IR receiver on the front-panel display. Make sure the rear-panel IR input connector is not being used. Make sure the remote control is positioned within 17 feet (5m) of the front panel. If the chassis is placed inside a glass cabinet, tinted glass will reduce the remote control range. Make sure the remote control signal is being received at the IR receiver on the front-panel display at a reasonable angle. Make sure the IR receiver on the front-panel display is not exposed to strong sunlight, halogen light, or fluorescent light. This can cause IR reception to become unreliable. Replace the remote control batteries. NO SIGNAL AT THE OUTPUTS Examine all audio cables to ensure a solid connection between the player and all associated components. Examine the speaker cables to ensure a solid connection between the player and the amplifiers or preamplifier to which is is connected. Make sure that the connected speakers are operational. Make sure the volume is set to an audible level. Make sure the mute is deactivated. Make sure the Offset setting for the selected input is not reducing the volume to an inaudible level. Make sure all associated components are connected to working electrical outlets and powered on. Make sure the source device connected to the player’s selected input is producing an output signal. MISSING INPUT Make sure the selected input has not been set to Disabled in the Input Setup menu. N0 519 AUDIO PLAYER / OWNER’S MANUAL 19 ENGLISH TROUBLESHOOTING TROUBLESHOOTING AUDIO HUM Disconnect components one at a time to isolate the problem. Once the problem is identified, make sure the problematic component is properly grounded and connected to the same electrical circuit as the player. VOLUME CAN’T BE SET TO MAXIMUM You have the option of establishing a maximum volume level in the menu. If this option is set, it can prevent the unit’s maximum volume level of 80.0 from being reached. FRONT PANEL DISPLAY NOT WORKING AS EXPECTED The display may be set to shut off after no front panel control activity. If the display does not come on when the volume control is rotated, contact your authorized Mark Levinson dealer. If the display does come on, and then shut off after a period, the “Display Timeout” setting can be adjusted to lengthen or shorten this period, or to keep the display illuminated continuously. NO NETWORK CONNECTIVITY Verify that the network cables are properly connected between the router, switch or hub and the preamp. Verify the age of the router, switch or hub. If the router, switch or hub is more than ten years old, there may be a communication issue with the preamp. Power cycle the player and use a newer router, switch or hub between the network and the player. IF ALL ELSE FAILS… Power cycle the player with the rear-panel Power switch, waiting at least 10 seconds between powering the unit off and on. Restore factory-default settings.
