9.8.4 SA-10 Operations When Controlling from the DFP-D3000
The system combining the DFP-D3000 and SA-10 performs the following operations at the settings and
connections described until now.
1. When the SDDS film is played back
The following operations are performed when the SDDS film is played back.
When the SDDS film is identified by the DFP-D3000, the SDDS OK pulse is output from Pin 32 of the
Automation connector. As a result of sending the pulse to the SA-10 control input, the “Surround EX
Mode” LED lights up on the Surround EX Processor SA-10, and the Surround EX decode function turns
ON (EX mode).
If there are large scratches on the SDDS film, or if film with no SDDS signal arrives and SDDS signal
cannot be read, the ACM pulse is output from the Pin 36 of the Automation connector. As a result, the
“Surround EX Mode” LED lights up on the Surround EX Processor SA-10, and the Surround EX decode
function goes OFF (normal mode).
2. When other format film is played back
In this case, even if the Surround Mode switch on the SA-10 front panel is set to the “Surround EX
Enable” mode, the “Surround EX Mode” LED lights up on the Surround EX Processor SA-10, and the
Surround EX decode function goes OFF (normal mode).

Even other format sounds (Dolby Digital, DTS, Dolby SR) are played without selecting the SDDS sound
in the use of films recorded with SDDS, Surround EX control will be performed using the read state of
the SDDS data. This must be borne in mind carefully.
