5 - OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Before turning on the Calypso Reference, be sure that all precautions and warnings
have been carefully reviewed and complied with.
5-1 Elektra Power Supply
Please check to have connected the 16 wires cord between the power supply and the
Calypso unit.
Once started the power supply by using the switch on the front panel, the Calypso don’t
light on immediately, due to high capacitors included inside the power supply. It takes
minimum 15 seconds of delay before that the Calypso will be activated. During these some
seconds the blue led in front panel is blinking.
These 15 seconds ended, the blue led will be continuous alight and the Calypso’s display
alights. Enjoy…
5-2 Calypso CD Transport unit
Audio CD initialization:
To initialize Table Of Contents of your audio CD, you have just to put the Perplex clamp
on the CD and to wait 5 seconds.
In fact, the Calypso uses an optical detector to check CD availability.
5-3 Protection
The unit is equipped with special protection circuitry to provide maximum performance
with greatest reliability. It is protected by internal electronic circuits and by a general fuse
situated in the block near the power cord.
To change the fuse, it is imperative to first unplug the power cable, then open the fuse
compartment (see photo on Rear Panel Layout) with a screwdriver and replace the fuse by
an identical slow blowing model. The machine is delivered with a second fuse.
Note: after a long period without functioning, the fuse may burn out when the power
supply is switched on, since there is a very important current consumption lasting a brief
instant when the power supply is completely discharged.
