Troubleshooting

B

Bit rate

This expresses the read amount per 1 second of video/audio data recorded in a disc.

D

Dynamic range

The difference between the maximum undistorted sound level and the minimum sound level that is discernible above the noise emitted by the device.

F

Finalize

This is processing that enables playing back of disc of CD, which was recorded using a recorder, by other players.

M

MP3 (MPEG Audio Layer-3)

This is an internationally standardized audio data compression scheme, using the “MPEG-1” video compression standard. It compresses the data volume to about one eleventh its original size while maintaining sound quality equivalent to a music CD.

MPEG (Moving Picture Experts Group), MPEG-2, MPEG-4

These are the names for digital compression format standards used for the encoding of video and audio. Video standards include “MPEG-1 Video”, “MPEG- 2 Video”, “MPEG-4 Visual”, “MPEG-4 AVC”. Audio standards include “MPEG-1 Audio”, “MPEG-2 Audio”, “MPEG-4 AAC”.

P

Protection circuit

This is a function to prevent damage to components within the power supply when an abnormality such as an overload, excess voltage occurs or temperature for any reason.

In this unit, the power indicator blinks and the unit enters standby mode when an abnormality occurs.

S

Sampling frequency

Sampling involves taking a reading of a sound wave (analog signal) at regular intervals and expressing the height of the wave at each reading in digitized format (producing a digital signal).

The number of readings taken in one second is called the “sampling frequency”. The larger the value, the closer the reproduced sound is to the original.

Speaker impedance

This is an AC resistance value, indicated in Ω (ohms). Greater power can be obtained with this value smaller.

W

WMA (Windows Media Audio)

This is audio compression technology developed by Microsoft Corporation.

WMA data can be encoded using Windows Media® Player Ver.7, 7.1, Windows Media®Player

for Windows® XP and Windows Media® Player 9 Series.

To encode WMA files, only use applications authorized by Microsoft Corporation. If you use an unauthorized application, the file may not work properly.

If a problem occurs first check the following:1.Are the connections correct?2.Is the set being operated as described in the owner’s manual?3.Are the other components operating properly?

If this unit does not operate properly, check the items listed in the table below. If the problem persists, there may be a malfunction.

In this case, disconnect the power immediately and contact your retail outlet.
