Connecting to Another Player for Control of 601 Discs

When you have two Pioneer DV-F727 players or decide to add a second Pioneer DV-F727 player to accommodate a growing disc collection, it is possible to make

Master-Slave connections to use both players as a single unit for total control of up to 601 discs.

Before making Master-Slave connections, be sure to complete audio and video connections for the player to be used as the master player (pages 17 and 18).

When you are adding a second player, it is recommended to use the second player as the Slave player.

Master-Slave connections can only be made to another Pioneer file-type DVD player. Connections cannot be made to a Pioneer file-type CD player.

Be sure to turn the power off before making any connections. For full and complete Master-Slave connection, be sure to make connections for control, audio, and video as described in the following procedure.

1 Connect the supplied control cord from this player’s MASTER-SLAVE CONTROL MASTER jack to the MASTER-SLAVE CONTROL SLAVE jack of another Pioneer DV-F727.

Notes

One Master-Slave control cord is supplied with each unit, however, only one cord is needed.

When a Master-Slave control cord is not firmly connected, or transmission is not made successfully, “CONNECT ERR” is displayed in the display window of both units. Should this occur, please make connections again.

When not making Master-Slave connections, do not make any connections to the MASTER-SLAVE CONTROL jacks.

2 Make audio connections from the Slave player to the AUDIO IN jacks or DIGITAL IN (coaxial) jack on this player corresponding to the type of audio connections made from the Master player to the TV or AV component.

Analog audio connections

Make connections from the AUDIO OUT jacks on the Slave player to the AUDIO IN jacks on the Master player.

Use the audio cable included with the Slave player when making analog audio connections.

When making analog audio connections, be sure to match the color of the plugs with the color of the jacks (red and white).
