S-LINK CONTROL A1 hookup
If you have a S-LINK CONTROL A1-compatible
Sony CD player, tape deck, or MD deck
Use a CONTROL A1 cord (not supplied) to connect the
S-LINK CTRL A1 jack on the CD player, tape deck, or
MD deck to the S-LINK CTRL A1 jack on the receiver.
Refer to the separate manual “CONTROL-A1 Control
System” and the operating instructions supplied with
your CD player, tape deck, or MD deck for details.
Note
If you make CONTROL A1 connections from the receiver to an
MD deck that is also connected to a computer, do not operate
the receiver while using the “Sony MD Editor” software. This
may cause a malfunction.
If you have a Sony CD changer with a
COMMAND MODE selector
If your CD changer’s COMMAND MODE selector can
be set to CD 1, CD 2, or CD 3, be sure to set the
command mode to “CD 1” and connect the changer to
the CD jacks on the receiver.
If, however, you have a Sony CD changer with VIDEO
OUT jacks, set the command mode to “CD 2” and
connect the changer to the VIDEO 2 jacks on the
receiver.
Connecting the AC power cord
Before connecting the AC power cord of this receiver to a
wall outlet:
Connect the speaker system to the receiver (see page
12).
Turn the MASTER VOLUME control to the leftmost
position (0).
Connect the AC power cord(s) of your audio/video
components to a wall outlet.
If you connect other audio/video components to the AC
OUTLET(s) on the receiver, the receiver will supply power
to the connected component(s), allowing you to turn the
whole system on or off when you turn the receiver on/off.
Caution
Make sure that the total power consumption of the component(s)
connected to the receiver’s AC OUTLET(s) does not exceed the
wattage stated on the rear panel. Do not connect high-wattage
electrical home appliances such as electric irons, fans, or TVs to
this outlet.
Note
If the AC power cord is disconnected for about one week, the
receiver’s entire memory will be cleaned and the demonstration
will start.
