network when switched off. They are set to a stand-
by state instead. For connecting cables, two-core
cables with 3.5 mm jack plugs (mono) are used.
For each connection between two devices one of
those cables is needed.
If the CD-S5 is to be switched on/off automatically
with the preamplifier or integrated amplifier, then
The CD-S5 has two connectors for power control (12). One output on the transmitting device (integrated
amplifier, preamplifier or a device that passes on the power control signal), usually labelled "POWER
CONTROL" or "TRIGGER", must be connected to one of these two connectors (12). If the "POWER CON-
TROL" cable is connected to this device, the second jack connector serves to pass on the switch signal
(for example to the main amplifier) or it remains free. This CD player cannot generate the switching signal
for other components on its own!
e.g. preamplifier
A theoretically infinite number of devices may be served with the switch impulses from a transmitting devi-
ce. To this end, on most devices one of the two "POWER CONTROL" connectors may be used as a signal
input and the other as a signal output. This method of passing on the signal via the devices' inputs and
outputs and of thereby chaining them is also known as "daisy chaining".
Many devices which can be controlled by a switching signal (not preamplifiers or integrated
amplifiers), have two terminals which do not differentiate between input and output. In this case
either of the two can be selected. Even some devices that transmit the switch signal (preampli-
fiers and integrated preamplifiers) lack this marking. In this case it may be assumed that they
both are signal outputs.
"POWER CONTROL" sockets of preamplifiers or integrated amplifiers must not be interconnec-
ted! All receiving devices must not be connected to more than one preamplifier or integrated
amplifier (directly or indirectly)!
If a "POWER CONTROL" cable is connected to the back of the CD-S5 and the 12V switching
signal is given, the main amplifier can no longer be switched off with the "POWER" button. If
the power control function is not desired, the switch signal cables must therefore be removed!
the cable connections for power control described
below must be made correctly and the "POWER"
switch (3) must be moved to the switched off posi-
tion.
If you don't wish to use this function or if the other
components do not support it, all you have to do is
leave out these cable connections.
