Installing your D6000
General precautions
Before carrying out any installation, you should ensure that the D6000 is
marked with the correct voltage for your local AC supply. Should this not
be the case, do not proceed, but contact your dealer.
As a general rule, you should not make any connections to the D6000, or
to any other component in your system, when the AC power supply is
switched on.
Customising features
The D6000 is very flexible. Its functions can be significantly customised,
which means that you can set up your system so that it suits you exactly.
Customising D6000: an overview, on page 27, describes your options
in detail. By the time you have set up D6000 according to your needs, you
will be aware of how the alternative choices available to you can differ
from the standard configurations.
We recommend that you first get to know the D6000 by using one of the
standard setups, and by working through this manual. Do not be afraid
later to experiment with customising – we have given you a simple way of
getting back to where you started from! (see page 30).
D6000 as provided has 3 standard configurations which we call Type
settings. Each Type gives a different set of standard options; this feature
is described fully on page 30.
Warning By selecting a Type, you automatically reset all custom settings
for D6000 to the factory defaults – this includes all tone settings.
D6000 has 7 operating modes (not to be confused with setup Types):
•
Standby
•
Normal
•
Type
•
Config
•
Setup
•
Calibrate
•
Test
Standby and Normal are the everyday operating modes. The basic
operating instructions refer to these.
Type is used to reset the D6000 to one of five factory-preset conditions.
The main uses of Type are to specify what type of preamplifier is being
used, and to make an initial choice of left/right and master/slave speakers.
Config could be considered as an editing setup mode. In Config you can
choose any aspect of left/right, master/slave, sources or preamplifiers
individually, without losing any other settings you may have made.
Setup is an operating mode in which the speaker plays. The idea behind
Setup is that in this mode you can choose and store in memory the
preferred tone settings for every source. Going to Normal operation then
prevents them from being accidentally lost, and can simplify everyday
operation.
Customisation is described more fully in Configuring D6000: an
overview, on page 27.
