5. TOSLINK Digital Audio Optical Inputs

The SP1.7 offers two assignable TOSLINK optical inputs. These can

be designated to any input using the OS menu (“Other Settings”)on

the LCD screen. Please note that if you choose to assign an optical

input to an input with a coaxial input, the coaxial will be over-ridden

and the optical input signal will be used by the SP1.7. The pro model

replaces the two TOSLINK connectors with a single AES/EBU

Digital connector.

Setting the Optical Audio Input Assignment

Enter the main menu by pressing on one of the menu buttons on the SP1 front panel. Move the cursor to “OS”.

Hit ‘Select’ - You are now in the ‘Other Settings’(Optical/THX) Menu.

ii. Move the cursor to the Optical Input

(OPT1 or OPT2) you want to change the

input assignment for. Hit ‘Select’.

iii. Now you can assign the optical input to any one of the 6 inputs selectors. Doing this will override the

digital coax connector on that input. Hit ‘Select’ when finished.

NOTE: On the pro model, ‘AES’ will show up in the ‘Other Settings’ Menu (instead of OPT1 and OPT2),

to setup the AES/EBU input assignment.

6. Tape/Recording Outputs

The SP1.7 provides two analog outputs for the TAPE and VCR sources. The front panel selected input signal is

always routed to these tape outputs, except when TAPE or VCR is selected. In those cases the appropriate output

is automatically muted to prevent feedback.
