CONTROL A1 control system
(continued)
CONTROL A1 and CONTROL A1
compatibility
The CONTROL A1 control system has been
updated to the CONTROL A1 which is the
standard system in the Sony 300 disc CD changer
and other recent Sony components. Components
with CONTROL A1 jacks are compatible with
components with CONTROL A1 , and can be
connected to each other. Basically, the majority of
the functions available with the CONTROL A1
control system will be available with the
CONTROL A1 control system.
However, when making connections between
components with CONTROL A1 jacks and
components with CONTROL A1 jacks, the
number of functions that can be controlled may be
limited depending on the component. For detailed
information, refer to the operating instructions
supplied with the component(s).
Connections
Connect monaural (2P) mini-plug cords in
series to the CONTROL A1 jacks on the
back of each component. You can connect up
to 10 CONTROL A1 compatible components
in any order. However, you can connect only
one of each type of component (i.e., 1 CD
player, 1 MD deck, 1 tape deck and 1 receiver).
(You may be able to connect more than one CD
player or MD deck, depending on the model.
Refer to the operating instructions supplied
with the respective component for details.)
In the CONTROL A1 control system, the
control signals flow both ways, so there is no
distinction of IN and OUT jacks. If a
component has more than one CONTROL
A1 jack, you can use either one, or connect
different components to each jack.
On CONTROL A1 jacks and
connections
It is possible to make connections between
CONTROL A1 and CONTROL A1 jacks.
For details regarding particular connections or
set up options, refer to the operating
instructions supplied with the component(s).
About the connecting cord
Some CONTROL A1 compatible components
are supplied with a connecting cord as an
accessory. In this case, use the connecting cord
for your connection.
When using a commercially available cord, use
a monaural (2P) mini-plug cord less than
2 meters long, with no resistance (like the Sony
RK-G69HG).
Basic Functions
The CONTROL A1 functions will operate as
long as the component you want to operate is
turned on, even if all of the other connected
components are not turned on.
