GETTING STARTED
A) Remove the SoundWorks 765i from its protective
polybag and place it in your preferred location.
Note: The 765i’s bass output will be reduced if it is
placed on a plush surface, like a thick carpet or rug.
The Tone Alarm volume will also be reduced.
B) To prepare and connect the AM band antenna:
1) Locate the antenna
2) Fold the base
3) Snap the base into place
4) Position the AM antenna in an out-of-the-way
site. Avoid placing it near the 765i Power Supply.
Insert the AM Antenna’s miniplug into the REAR
CONNECTOR PANEL minijack marked AM ANT.
Rotate the AM antenna to achieve the best signal for
individual AM stations.

keeps the current time accurate in the event of
a short interruption in AC power. The 765i will
maintain clock accuracy for up to three minutes
without AC power.
This feature maintains alarm function in the event
of an short power outage. It also allows transfer
of the radio from one site to the another without
losing the current time, if you plan ahead and have
convenient access to AC power at the new site.
Standby and On
F) Pushing the POWER button chooses Standby or
On operation.
The faceplate POWER button can also be used to

TV OR NO TV
The 765i’s standard operation assumes there is no
television connected. A few of the remote control
commands change if “TELEVISION CONNECTED” is
selected in the JOG menu.
A) The proper JOG menu choice if a television
monitor is not connected is shown at left:
TELEVISION NOT CONNECTED
Leave this JOG menu choice unchanged if you do
not plan to connect a television.
Connecting A Television
The 765i’s video output jack is a “hybrid” design,
providing both S-video output and composite video
output from the same jack. A connection cable is
provided with a composite video plug.
Any television with a composite video input can
be connected with the supplied video cable. A
composite video input is a round “RCA” type jack
with a single central hole, usually colored yellow.
An S-video connection provides better image
quality than composite video. If your television has
an S-video input jack, obtain a standard S-video
cable (S-video plugs at each end) to connect it.
B) Television connection is shown at right.
The 765i VIDEO OUT connection can only be made if
the plug is properly rotated. Do not force the plug in
to the connector jack.
Adjust The JOG Menu Television Status
C) Once you have connected the television, adjust
the JOG menu TELEVISION choice to
TELEVISION CONNECTED.
