Before making or changing the connections, switch off the power and disconnect the power cord from the AC outlet.

Please ensure that if you are using the coaxial digital connections that 75 ohm video type cable is used.

Connecting up for digital playback & recording

The diagrams on these pages show possible connections with various other components in your system. Before you start connecting your system, make sure that all the components are switched off and disconnected from the wall outlet.

About optical and coaxial jacks

The CDR–830 has both optical and coaxial jacks for both digital input and output. There’s no need to connect both, but since some equipment has only one type of connector—and you can only connect like with like—having both types on this unit can be an advantage.

To use the optical jack, you’ll need an optical cable. These are readily available at audio dealers. When buying, check that the cable is no longer than 3m.

Pull out the dust cap and store it in a safe place for future use. Check that both optical plug and socket are free from dust—if necessary, clean with a soft, dry cloth. The optical lead will only go in one way, so match up the jack and the plug before inserting fully.

When connecting optical leads, take care not to bend the cable around sharp corners as this can damage the cable. Likewise, when storing optical cable, coil loosely (as shown on page 7).

If you’re using one of the coaxial-type digital connectors you’ll need a lead with an RCA/ phono plug at each end. Please only use digital audio cables, not normal audio interconnects.

Using the digital inputs

To make direct digital recordings on the CDR– 830 you’ll need to connect the digital output of a source (like a CD, MD, or DAT player) to one of the digital inputs on this unit. To make recordings from analog sources (like an analog tape deck) connect the outputs of your analog source to the line inputs of the CDR–830—see the following page for more detail.

Using the digital outputs

If you have another digital recorder, such as a MD or DAT recorder, you might want to use the CDR–830 as a digital source. In this case, connect one of the digital outputs of the CDR– 830 to a similar digital input on your other digital recorder.
