NAD NAD 517 owner manual Operation of the Digital Compact Disc Changer

(2) DIGITAL OUTPUT.

The digital playback signal is available at this out- put jack. The serial data output is taken after error correction and de-interleaving, but before digital-to- analog conversion and filtering. The output is buffered to isolate it from the built-in D-to-A circuits. It may be connected to any digital signal processor that conforms to the Sony/Philips standard.

To use the digital output, connect a cable from this jack to the “CD digital” or equivalent input on the digi- tal processor. The cable must be a 75-ohm coaxial cable of the type used for video signals, with an RCA phono plug at each end. (To distinguish them from similar phono-plug cables used for audio, video cables often are color-coded with yellow plugs.)

COMPACT DISCS - HANDLING THE DISCS

Fingerprints and dust should be carefully wiped off the disc’s playing surface (glossy side) with a soft cloth.

Wipe using a straight motion from the inside to the outside of the disc.

Never use chemicals such as record cleaning sprays, antistatic sprays or fluids, benzine or thinner to clean compact discs. These chemicals will perma- nently damage the disc’s plastic surface.

Always place the compact disc in the disc tray with the label facing upward. Compact discs can be played on only one side.

To remove a disc from is storage case, press down on the centre of the case and lift the disc out, holding it carefully by the edges.

Discs should be returned to their cases after use to protect them from dust and scratches.

To prevent warping the disc, do not expose it to direct sunlight, high humidity or high temperatures for extended periods of time. Do not apply paper or write anything in the disc surface.
