Using DSP5000

Starting the DSP5000

To start the system, press any of the input keys on the MSR (CD, LP,

Radio, Video, Tape 1, and Tape 2). For example:

1. Press CD

In Type 1 this will select the physical input D1, and both DSP5000s will display

cd 65

65 is the volume number, and cd means that the DSP5000 expects the source to be a Meridian CD player which can be controlled by the MSR. Cd would be the correct display if your CD player were not a Meridian product, in which case you could still listen to it, but the MSR would not control it.

Note The response of the DSP5000 to commands will be slower if it is set up to expect a Meridian component when one is not connected. If non- Meridian components are used, the DSP5000 should be set up accordingly.

The Meridian components will now have come out of Standby.

1.Start up your CD player in the normal way. If all is well you will soon hear the music. If you do not, check all connections, and if necessary refer to the DSP5000 setup manual.

To put the system into Standby:

1. Press Off

If the connections are correct, both DSP5000s and any other Meridian components should revert to Standby mode.

Note If they do not, there may have been a mistake in the setup of the

DSP5000s, or in the connection of the communications network.

Standby

The entire Meridian system is designed to be left connected to AC power at all times.

∙The Standby state ensures that the components operate at maximum efficiency from the moment when you start listening. It is perfectly safe and consumes a negligible amount of power. However, when you are not going to use your system for some time (when you are going on holiday, for instance), we would advise you to disconnect it from the AC power supply.

∙The memory functions of DSP5000 use EEPROM, which is non- volatile, and therefore has the ability to store your data indefinitely when the power is switched off.
