5. CONNECTIONS 6. USING THE PLAYER
This Compact Disc player can be connected in two ways.
Connection via the OPTICAL socket
This output supplies a digital signal via an optical path; for this
reason it can only be connected to the optical input of a Digital
Analog Converter, an amplifier with an optical digital input or a
digital sound processor. For this the optical lead is used.
1. Pull out the protective plug from the OPTICAL socket of the
player.
Wofe; Store the protective plug in a safe place; it must be refitted
to keep the input free from dust when there is no plug in it, e.g.
during transportation.
2. Connect one end of the lead to the OPTICAL socket on the
Compact Disc player.
3. Connect the other end to the optical input of the D/A converter
or of another piece of equipment.
Press in the plugs until you hear a click.
Important: Ensure that there are no folds in the optical lead
because this will hinder the conduction of light.
Connection via the ELECTRICAL socket
This output also supplies a digital signal and can therefore only
be connected to an input which is suitable forthis signal. Use here
the lead with one cinch plug on either end.
This connection socket is gold-plated in order to minimize the
contact resistance between socket and lead. To maintain the
high quality of this connection, we recommend that you use the
connection lead supplied, the plugs of which are also gold-
plated.
1. Connect one end of the lead to the ELECTRICAL socket on the
player.
2. Connect the other end to the digital input of a D/A converter
or other piece of equipment.
Important: Never connect the DIGITAL OUT ELECTRICAL
socket to a non-digital input of an amplifier, such as AUX, CD,
TAPE, or PHONO. This can damage the amplifier and the
loudspeakers.
Connection to the mains supply
Push the plug of the mains lead into the wall socket.
Fitting a mains plug (only for the U.K.)
The wires in the mains lead are coloured:
Blue - Neutral Brown - Live
As these colours may not correspond with the colour markings
identifying the terminals in your plug proceed as follows:
- The Brown wire must be connected to the terminal which is
marked with the letter L or coloured Red.
-The Blue wire must be connected to the terminal which is
marked with the letter N or coloured Black.
Note: This apparatus must be protected by a 3 amp fuse if a
13 amp plug is used, or, if any other type of plug is used, by a
5 amp fuse either in the plug or adapter, or at the distribution
board. If in doubt consult a qualified electrician.
