X-P100

CONNECTIONS

You will also be able to hear the selected

source through the loudspeakers.

Note - you can adjust the listening level

with the volume control without affecting the
recording level.

OFF TAPE MONITORING

In conjunction with a 3-head cassette

deck, off-tape monitoring allows the user to
compare the recorded to original sound whilst
a recording is made.

To do this first select the required source

in the normal way and start recording. The
Tape Monitor button on the front panel can
now be used to switch between the source
signal and the recorded signal allowing direct
comparison.

Note that tape (the recorded signal) is

selected when this button is in. On some  3-
head cassette decks there is an additional
'tape/source' switch which will need to be in
the 'tape' position for the above to work - if
you are in any doubt consult your tape ma-
chine's manual.

REMOTE CONTROL

The X-P100 features Infra Red remote

control of volume, input selection and mute
functions via the supplied remote control
handset. The Infra Red receiver is the small
red lens marked I.R. situated on the front
panel, it is a good idea to place your X-P100
such that there is an unobstructed line-of-sight
to this lens from around your listening room.

 Pressing the volume up or down but-

tons on the remote handset will advance the
motorised volume control in the desired di-
rection.

 If either button is held down for more

than approximately 2-3 seconds the motor
drive will go into high speed mode and the
volume control will advance more rapidly.

Input selection is achieved by a

motorised selector switch which will automati-
cally turn to the input selected with the re-
mote handset.

Please note that if the selector switch is

not firmly positioned on a valid input when a
new selector postion is selected on the re-
mote contro,l the X-P100 will turn the selec-
tor switch to its first position, (Tape), and
reset the selector control mechanism before
then moving on to the correct input.

The output is muted whilst the selector

switch rotates by remote control.

The mute button on the remote handset

mutes the output from the preamp, pressing
this button again or selecting a different input
selection will un-mute the unit.
