Setup and Installation
Caution!
For your protection, review “Important Safety Instructions”
before you install your Nº37.
Connecting AC Mains
Plug the female end of the AC power cord into the appropriate socket on the rear
panel of the Nº37, being certain to seat it firmly, all the way into the recepticle.
Double-check to make sure that the AC power switch is in the off position (the
side of the switch with an “O” should be depressed), and also that the voltage
indicated on your Nº37 corresponds to the normal voltage for your country. (Con-
necting a 120-volt Nº37 to a 220-volt AC outlet is
not
a good idea.)
Plug the male end of the power cord into the wall outlet, and then turn on the
power switch located on the rear panel of the Nº37 (by depressing the side of
the switch that has a single vertical line like this: “
|
”.)
Making Digital
Audio Connections
The Nº37 incorporates
XLR
,
BNC
and
RCA
electrical output connectors, as well as
an
ST
optical connector for providing the digital audio signal (DAS) to the digital
audio processor. (See
Rear panel, Nº37
, above.)
For electrical digital interconnection, we recommend Madrigal MDC cable. MDC-1
is designed for 110
Ω
AES/EBU
interconnection (via XLR connectors); MDC-2 is
designed for 75
Ω
S/PDIF
interconnection (via either RCA or BNC connectors).
Both cables are available in various lengths from your Mark Levinson dealer.
Using an appropriate cable, connect an output of your Nº37 to a suitable input of
your digital processor.
Making Link Connections
The Nº37 incorporates sophisticated inter-component communications capabilities
when Linked to compatible Mark Levinson components. (See “Communications
Ports” in
Rear panel, Nº37
.) If you own compatible Mark Levinson components,
connect them to the Nº37 with an eight-conductor modular cable as described
on page 21. You may find that you need to cycle power off and on once after
making this connection for the first time (if making the connection to a previ-
ously operating component), in order to ensure that all components in the chain
are aware of each other’s presence. Engaging
PLAY
on the transport once from
STOP
will complete the Link connection by activating the communications bus
between the components.
To help with special installations and custom cabinetry, drawings are included in
this manual. (See
