A Quick Start For Laserdisc
Okay, so now you have some music to listen to while reading the manual. But
you’re in a rush to hear Dolby Digital on your new system. Remember:
What fol-
lows is not a replacement for a complete setup of the system.
We will as-
sume here that you have already done the CD setup on the previous page. To get
a laserdisc player playing:
1 MAKE THE PHYSICAL CONNECTIONS
If you have a
Dolby Digital (AC-3)
output on your laserdisc player and the
RF Demodulator
card in the PDSD, connect the AC-3 output to
digital
input 11
on the PDSD. Also connect the (normal) digital output of your LD
to any matching digital input on the PDSD, noting which one you use. Con-
nect the analog outputs of the LD to the laserdisc inputs of the PAV. Finally,
don’t forget to connect the video output of your laserdisc player to the cor-
responding input on the PAV. Turn everything on.
2 PRESS AND HOLD THE LASERDISC BUTTON ON THE PAV
This shortcut of pressing and holding an input button will take you directly
to the Define Button menu for that button.
3 TELL THE SYSTEM WHICH CONNECTORS YOU USED FOR YOUR
LASERDISC PLAYER IN STEP 1
Using the
/–
buttons, move the arrow cursor down to the line that
defines your video connection and press
enter
. Confirm that the video is
connected to the laserdisc connector, and whether you used composite or
S-video connections. Press
enter
to save any changes you might need to
make, and then press
menu
to return to the previous menu.
Similarly, set up all three audio connections: move the arrow cursor down
(
/–
) to the line that defines your first choice, and press
enter
again. With the cursor changed to an
x
instead of an arrow, the
/–
buttons will allow you to select
digital input 11 RF
(for example). When
done, press
enter
again to save your change, and move on to your second
choice (a digital input); then your third choice (the analog connection), sav-
ing changes as you go.
This hierarchy allows the system to automatically select the best available
signal, by associating up to three different connections with a single button
on the front panel of the PAV.
4 PRESS MENU TO EXIT THE MENU SYSTEM, AND ENJOY
Make sure the volume is on at a low level before you fire up your laserdisc
player; press the laserdisc button once, and raise the volume to a moderate/
comfortable level.
Important: you should properly calibrate the system so
all speakers are playing at the proper volumes before you listen critically to
multichannel audio.
Performing this calibration only takes only a few more
minutes, but you should read up on it first. Please review the chapter on
The Setup Menu
for more information, pp. 39-55.
