Getting Started
This section explains the basic functions
of the CONTROL A1
Certain components have special
functions, such as "CD Synchro Dubbing"
on cassette decks, that require CONTROL
A1 connections. For detailed information
regarding specific operations, be sure to
also refer to the Operating Instructions
supplied with your component(s).
The CONTROL A1 Control System was
designed to simplify the operation of audio
systems composed of separate Sony
components. CONTROL A1
provide a path for the transmission of control
signals which enable automatic operation and
control features usually associated with
integrated systems.
Currently, CONTROL A1
between a Sony CD player, amplifier
(receiver), MD deck and cassette deck provide
automatic function selection and synchronized
recording.
In the future, the CONTROL A1
will work as a multifunction bus allowing you
to control various functions for each
component.
Notes
• The CONTROL A1 Control System is designed to
maintain upward compatibility as the Control
System is upgraded to handle new functions. In this
case, however, older components will not be
compatible with the new functions.
• Do not operate a 2 way remote control unit when
the CONTROL A1 jacks are connected via a PC
interface kit to a personal computer running "MD
Editor" or similar application. Also, do not operate
the connected component in a manner contrary to
the functions of the application, as this may cause
the application to operate incorrectly.
