Arcam’s BDP100 provides class-leading sound quality from Blu-ray Discs, DVD-Video discs and compact discs.

The BDP100 has a state-of-the-art Delta-Sigma DAC (Digital-to-Analogue Converter) which provides audiophile sound quality for video and audio discs.

The BDP100 is supplied with the CR104 ‘universal’ remote control, which is simple to use and can control up to eight audio devices – such as an amplifer, television or Personal Video Recorder.

The high performance BDP100 Blu-ray Disc player is designed to truly bring your movies and music to life.

Placing the unit

<Place the BD player on a level, firm surface, avoiding direct sunlight and sources of heat or damp.

<Do not place the BD player on top of an amplifier or other source of heat.

<Do not place the BD player in an enclosed space such as a bookcase or closed cabinet unless there is good provision for ventilation. The BD player is designed to run warm during normal operation.

<Do not place any other component or item on top of the BD player as this may obstruct airflow around the unit, causing the BD player to run hot.

<Make sure the remote-control receiver (next to the display on the front panel) is unobstructed, or remote control will be impaired.

<Do not place your record deck on top of this unit. Record decks are very sensitive to the noise generated by mains power supplies which will be heard as a background ‘hum’ if the record deck is too close.

Power

The BD player is supplied with a moulded mains plug already fitted to the lead. Check that the plug supplied fits your supply – should you require a new mains lead, please contact your Arcam dealer.

If your mains supply voltage or mains plug is different, please contact your Arcam dealer immediately

Push the IEC plug end of the power cable into the socket on the back of the BD player, making sure that it is pushed in firmly. Plug the other end of the cable into your mains socket and, if necessary, switch the socket on.

The remote control and trigger inputs

The REMOTE IN input can be used to pass RC5 codes (listed on page E-30) to the BDP100 if it is installed in a position, or a system, where infrared cannot be used. If this is required, please contact your dealer for further information.

The triggeR iN input can be used to switch the BDP100 in and out of stand-by. Connecting the trigger output of your Arcam amplifier (or other compatible device), will cause the BDP100 to come out of stand-by automatically when the amplifier is switched on, returning to stand-by when the amplifier is switched off. Please see your amplifier handbook for further information.

In normal use there is no need to make any connections to these inputs.

The remote control input requires a mono 3.5mm jack, with the tip active and the sleeve grounded.

The remote control signals must be in modulated RC5 format (at 36kHz), with a voltage level of between 5V and 12V.

The RS232 input is for optional connection to a home automation system or a computer. Various third-party sytems are available providing sophisticated control over all your entertainment devices using touch screens etc. Contact your dealer or installer for further details. The technical details of the remote control protocol are available from Arcam on request (email support@ arcam.co.uk).

Interconnect cables

We recommend the use of high-quality screened cables that are designed for the particular application. Other cables will have different impedance characteristics that will degrade the performance of your system (for example, do not use cabling intended for video use to carry audio signals). All cables should be kept as short as is practically possible.

It is good practice when connecting your equipment to make sure that the mains power-supply cabling is kept as far away as possible from your audio cables. Failure to do so may result in unwanted noise in the audio signals.
