My Selekt DSM has a RED Linn symbol on the dial, what does this mean?

If you do not have a live network/LAN connection on the Selekt DSM the Linn symbol on the dial will go red.

If your network cable is plugged in and your network/LAN is alive then check that you have the network/LAN cable plugged into the LAN socket (#3 on the back panel diagram) and NOT the Exakt socket (#10 back panel diagram).

After a live network/LAN connection is made the LINN symbol on the dial will turn white after 5-10 seconds.

I get a flashing Linn icon on the volume dial, what does this mean?

This means that the Selekt DSM is in :

• Searching for Exakt speakers after being woken from Sleep (typically only flashes for a couple of seconds after waking from Sleep)

or

• FALLBACK mode : Fallback is a state that means that the product is waiting for a software update. To stop this flashing either:

• Power cycle (Switch Mains Off for 10seconds and then switch mains On) and leave the Selekt DSM to startup for approximately 1min.

or

• Use the Linn App to upload software in to the Linn Selekt DSM. Check >HERE< for more information.

What does the shimmering dial mean?

This is to show that the Selekt DSM is starting up after a mains power on. It will typically do this in 30–45 seconds, but if the Linn Selekt DSM is performing a software update, this may take a little longer.

What does a dim/bright dial mean?

This is to show when the Selekt DSM is in Mute mode.
