9.6 power supply upgrade
The CDX2 can be upgraded by the addition of an XPS Power
Supply. The XPS takes over from the internal power supply of
the CDX2 and offers both a greater number of separate
supplies and more sophisticated voltage regulation.
The XPS is connected to the CDX2 via a heavy duty “Burndy”
cable. Switch off both the XPS and CDX2 when making
connections. Remove the CDX2 mains cable. Connect the
Burndy cable ensuring that the connectors are securely
attached and their twist lock mechanisms are engaged.
Switch on the XPS from its front panel power button. After a
short while the CDX2 will function as normal.
9.7 player maintenance
It is important for reliable operation of the CDX2 to ensure
that the surfaces of the transport platter and the underside
of the puck are free of dust or debris which can prevent
the disc from sitting properly and cause it to slip.
To clean the transport platter, take a piece of Blu-tack and
lightly apply it to the top surface of the magnetic metal
hub, picking up any material attached to it. Brush the
plastic outer edge lightly with your finger or a soft brush to
ensure that it is dust and particle free. Similarly, clean the
puck with Blu-tack, to remove debris from the three
locating pins on its underside. Take care not to damage the
rubber pressure pads. Brush them lightly with your finger or
a soft cloth.
Do not, under any circumstances, use any solvents or fluids
for the cleaning process.
