CONNECTIONS

Notes:

Turn

all

components

before

making

connections.

for

details.

To

the

‘DIGITAL

terminal

of

the

amplifier

[1]

Optical-fiber

cable

(inctuded)

This

cable

can

be

used

only

with

an

amplifier

having

the

“DIGITAL

INPUT”

terminal.

A

dust-protection

cap

is

inserted

in

the

“DIGITAL

OUT/OPTICAL"

terminal

of

this

unit.

Remove

this

cap

only

when

a

connection

is

to

be

made

to

this

terminal.

CAUTION

When

using

the

optical-fiber

cable,

please

keep

the

following

points

in

mind:

1.

The

maximum

length

of

optical-fiber

cable

to

be

used

with

this

unit

is

3

m

(approx.

10

ft.).

2.

Always

make

sure

the

plug

is

fully

inserted.

If

the

plug

is

not

inserted

all

the

way,

an

imperfect

connection

will

result.

3.

The

optical-fiber

cable

must

never

be

bent

or

coiled

tightly.

Doing

so

will

permanently

damage

the

optical-fiber

in

the

cable

and,

therefore,

prevent

proper

data

transmission.

If

the

cable

must

be

coiled

(for

storage,

etc.),

the

diameter

of

the

loop

should

be

at

least

15

cm

(approx.

6

inches).

4.

Handle

the

optical-fiber

cable’s

plug

very

carefully.

Keep

the

plug

free

from

dust

or

damage.

Dust

can

be

removed

by

wiping

the

plug

with

a

soft

cloth.

Do

not

use

any

cleaners

or

solvents

to

clean

the

plug.
