SYSTEM CONNECTIONS AUTOMATIC POWER-SWITCHING FUNCTION If you use the supplied system control cable to connect a subwoofer to a Yamaha component (e.g., Yamaha Digital Sound Projector that features a system connector jack), turning on or off the power to the connected component automatically turns the subwoofer on or off. This function automatically places the subwoofer in standby mode if the subwoofer does not detect a signal from the amplifier for a certain period of time.
