Sony MDS-JB930 - Manuel (Page 7)

In the CONTROL AlII 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 AllI
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 AlII jacks. For details regarding
particular connections or setup options, refer to the
operating instructions supplied with component(s).
About the connecting cable
Some CONTROL AlII compatible components are
supplied with a connecting cable as an accessory. In this
case, use the connecting cable for your connection.
When using a commercially available cable, use a
monaural (2P) mini-plug cable less than 2 meters long,
with no resistance (like the Sony RK-G69HG).
Basic Functions of the CONTROL Ain
Control System
Automatic function selection
When you connect CONTROL AlII compatible Sony
components using control AlII cables (not supplied), the
function selector on the amplifier (or receiver)
automatically switches to the correct input when you
press the play button on one of the connected
components.
(If you press O (play button) on the MD deck while the
CD is playing, the function selector on the amplifier
switches from CD to MD.)
Notes
• This function only works when the components are connected
to the amplifier (or receiver) inputs according to the names on
the function buttons. Certain receivers allow you to switch the
names of the function buttons. In this case, refer to the
operating instructions supplied with the receiver.
• When recording, do not play any components other than the
recording source. It will cause the automatic function selection
to operate.
Synchro-recording
This function lets you perform synchro-recording between
the MD deck and selected source component.
1 Set the source selector on the amplifier (or
receiver) to the source component.
2 Set the source component to pause mode (make
sure both the O and II indicators light together).
3 Set thé deck to recording pause mode.
4 Press II on the deck.
The source component is released from the pause
mode, and recording begins shortly thereafter.
When the playback ends from the source component,
recording stops.
Notes
• Do not set more than one component to the pause mode.
• This MD deck is equipped with a special synchronized
recording function that uses the CONTROL AlII Control
System (see "Making a CD Synchro-recording from a Sony CD
player connected with a control AlII cable (not supplied)" on
page 25).
