To set the Remote Control in keypad mode, either: · · · press the Keypad button, press the 0 button or hold down one of the 1-9 buttons until the white LED lights. The white LED goes out after 5 seconds, returning the Remote Control to normal operation. Pressing a number button while the white LED is lit keeps the white LED on for another 5 seconds. White LED () The white LED lights to indicate that the numeric keypad and some alternative functions are active. Keypad button () The Keypad button toggles the Remote Control in and out of keypad mode. Up/Down buttons Vol/Bal button () Use the Up/Down buttons to alter the Volume setting of a dCS DAC. () Pressing the Vol/Bal button puts a dCS DAC in Balance mode ­ use the Up/Down buttons to adjust the Balance. Balance mode times out after 5 seconds if no adjustment is made. Mute button (µ) Press the Mute button to mute or un-mute a dCS DAC. Display button () Press the Display button to cycle through the display options: · · · disc title (discs with disc text only), artist's name (discs with disc text only), track number and elapsed time. The display mode indicators show what is being displayed.

In SACD mode, 2. 822MS/s DSD on IEEE 1394 interface. Clocking The sample clock quality significantly determines the output performance of the unit. The highest quality clocks that are available are crystals, so we use these. Verdi uses on-board voltage controlled crystal oscillators (VCXO's) as clock sources. In master mode, this clocks the outputs and controls the mechanism. When slaving to Wordclock In, the VCXO is synchronised to the clock signal extracted from the input by a phase locked loop (PLL). This PLL is of a special narrow bandwidth type, that provides a significant degree of "clock cleaning". The PLL is also very robust, and will lock to very poor signals if necessary. Accuracy Synchronising to Wordclock In Pull-in range Lock-in time Typically ± 3 parts per million at time of shipping x ± 300 parts per million about nominal frequency < 6 seconds for most situations Manual filename: Verdi Manual v1. 2x. doc English version Page 41 email: more@dcsltd. co. uk web-site: www. dcsltd. co. uk dCS Verdi User Manual dCS Ltd Manual for Software Issue 1. 2x September 2004 Power requirements Units may be set for 100, 115/120, 200, 215/220 or 230/240V (+/-10%), 50/60Hz AC operation.
