Using the CONTROL A1
II
control system
This player is compatible with the CONTROL A1II
Control System.
The CONTROL A1II control system was designed to
simplify the operation of audio systems composed of
separate Sony components. CONTROL A1II
connections provide a path for the transmission of
control signals that enable automatic operation and
control features usually associated with integrated
systems.
Currently, CONTROL A1II connections between a
Sony MD deck, CD player, amplifier (receiver), and
cassette deck provide automatic function selection and
synchronized recording.
In the future the CONTROL A1II connection will work
as a multifunction bus allowing you to control various
functions for each component.
Note
The CONTROL A1II control system is designed to maintain
upward compatibility as the control system is upgraded to
handle new functions. In this case, however, older
components will not be compatible with the new functions.
CONTROL A1
II
and CONTROL A1 compatibility
The CONTROL A1 control system has been updated to the
CONTROL A1II which is the standard system in the Sony 300
disc CD changer and other recent Sony components.
Components with CONTROL A1 jacks are compatible with
components with CONTROL A1II jacks, and can be connected
to each other. Basically, the majority of the functions available
with the CONTROL A1 control system will be available with
the CONTROL A1II control system. However, when making
connections between components with CONTROL A1 jacks
and components with CONTROL A1II jacks, the number of
functions that can be controlled may be limited depending on
the component. For detailed information, refer to the
operating instructions supplied with the component(s).
Connecting the CONTROL A1
II
control
system
Connect monaural (2P) mini-plug cables in series to the
CONTROL A1II jacks on the back of each component.
You can connect up to ten CONTROL A1II compatible
components in any order. However, you can connect
only one of each type of component (i.e., 1 CD player, 1
MD deck, 1 tape deck and 1 receiver). (You may be able
to connect more than one CD player or MD deck,
depending on the model. Refer to the operating
instructions supplied with the respective component
for details.)
Example
In the CONTROL A1II control system, the control signals flow
both ways, so there is no distinction of IN and OUT jacks. If a
component has more than one CONTROL A1II jack, you can
use either one, or connect different components to each jack.
About the connecting cable
When a CONTROL A1II compatible component is not
supplied with a connecting cable, use a commercially
available monaural (2P) mini-plug cable less than 2 meters
long, with no resistance (such as the Sony RK-G69HG).
Basic functions of the CONTROL A1
II
control system
Automatic function selection
When you connect CONTROL A1II compatible Sony
components using CONTROL A1II cables (not supplied), the
function selector on the amplifier (or receiver) automatically
switches to the correct input when you press the play button
on one of the connected components.
(For example, when you press
H
(play button) on the CD
player while the MD deck is playing, the function selector on
the amplifier switches from MD to CD.)
Notes
• This function works only when the components are
connected to the amplifier (or receiver) inputs according to
the names on the function buttons. Certain receivers allow
you to switch the names of the function buttons. In this
case, refer to the operating instructions supplied with the
receiver.
• When recording, do not play any components other than
the recording source. It will cause the automatic function
selection to operate.
