Classe Audio CDP-502 owner manual DC Trigger Input and Output

Note:

Since an IR distribution system such as your dealer may design for you usually must control many products, your player includes both an IR input (for the control of this product) and an IR output (so as to pass along the same signal to the next product). This allows you to “daisy chain” your control wires from one product to the next.

Many IR repeater systems do not yet support the stripped- carrier signal format required by your disc player. If yours does not, a Delta IR Interface may be required to ensure compatibility between your IR repeater system and your Delta-series Classé equipment.

Your dealer can assist you in designing an effective IR repeater system.

The player is designed to respond to IR commands of 5VDC, with the tip of the mono mini-jacks defined to be “positive” relative to the shank of the plug.

6DC Trigger Input and Output

Many audio/video components can supply a DC control voltage to associated equipment in order to induce desired behavior. Your Classé player can take advantage of these capabilities in order to be switched between operate and standby automatically, usually in concert with the A/V preamp itself.

The 1⁄8th-inch mono mini-jack Trigger In provides for remote-controlled turn-on (that is, toggling between operate and standby) of the player.

Two 1⁄8th-inch mono mini-jacks provide individually controllable DC trigger outputs which can be used for any of a number of purposes, as described in The Menu System. For example, your dealer can program Trigger Out to toggle your Classé power amplifier between operate and standby with your CDP-502.

The remote Trigger In will respond to the presence of 5–12VDC, with tip polarity as shown below:

Similarly, the Trigger Outs will create a 12VDC signal that can support up to 100mA of current.
