2.3 Interfaces
This Chapter explains the LD-V8000’s three interfaces that allow control signals to
be received by the player:
• The
remote sensor
receives infrared signals from the either of the
RU-V60000T or the RU-V103 remote control units, or from Pioneer
Barcode Readers;
• The
EXT CONT terminal
receives signals from a wired connection
to either of the remote control units, or to a Pioneer Barcode Reader.
• The
RS-232C port
receives signals from a computer via the
appropriate RS-232C cable. See
Section 2.3.2
, page 2-9, and
Appendix D
for more information about cable connections.
