Connecting Digital Audio, Connecting Analogue Audio

CONNECTING DIGITAL AUDIO

If you have an external surround sound decoder, receiver or D-A converter that you wish to use with the DVD player, then you will need to connect it using either a coax or optical lead. These digital outputs provide 2-channel PCM, Dolby Digital, DTS or MPEG multi- channel audio, depending on the source material. It is also possible to set the digital output to always output 2-channel PCM (stereo mix- down) using the setup menu.

If possible, use the coax connection as this may offer slightly better performance. Connect the coax output of the DVD player to the digital audio coax input of the decoder/D-A converter or receiver using a phono cable designed for digital audio interconnection.

Alternatively, connect the optical output of the DVD player to the optical input of the decoder/D-A converter or receiver using a TOSLINK optical lead.

CONNECTING ANALOGUE AUDIO

If an external decoder is not available then the DVD player’s analogue audio outputs will need to be used. You may also wish to use the analogue outputs when listening to CDs, to take advantage of the DVD player’s high quality D-A converters.

Two pairs of identical outputs are provided. Connect one of these to your amplifier’s input using a suitable pair of interconnect cables.

The second set of audio outputs can be used to connect to a second amplifier setup for ‘multi-room’ use or routed to a tape recorder for making recordings.

REMOTE CONTROL INPUT

The REMOTE IN input can be used to pass RC5 code to the DV27 if it is installed in a position (or system) where infrared cannot be used.

CONNECTING TO A POWER SUPPLY

WRONG PLUG?

Check that the plug supplied with the unit fits your supply and that your mains supply voltage agrees with the voltage setting (115V or 230V) indicated on the rear panel of the unit.

If your mains supply voltage	or mains plug is different, consult
your Arcam dealer or	Arcam Customer Support on
+44 (0)1223 203203.

MAINS LEAD

The appliance is normally supplied with a moulded mains plug already fitted to the lead. If for any reason the plug needs to be removed, it must be disposed of immediately and securely, as it is a potential shock hazard when inserted into the mains socket. Should you require a new mains lead, contact your Arcam dealer.

PLUGGING IN

Push the plug (IEC line socket) of the power cable supplied with the unit into the socket (POWER INLET) in the back of the unit. Make sure it is pushed in firmly.

Put the plug on the other end of the cable into your power supply socket and switch the socket on.
