Before Using the DV-SP405

Installing the Batteries

Open the battery compartment, as shown.

Insert the two supplied batteries (AA) in

accordance with the polarity diagram inside the battery compartment.

Close the battery compartment.

Notes:

• If the remote controller doesn’t work reliably, try replacing both batteries.

• Don’t mix new and old batteries, or different types of batteries.

• If you intend not to use the remote controller for a long time, remove the batteries to prevent possible leakage and corrosion.

• Flat batteries should be removed as soon as possible to prevent possible leakage and corrosion.

Using the Remote Controller

To use the remote controller, point it at the DV-SP405’s remote control sensor, as shown below.

Notes:

• The remote controller may not work reliably if the DV-SP405 is subjected to bright light, such as direct sunlight or inverter-type fluorescent lights. Keep this in mind when installing the DV-SP405.

• If another remote controller of the same type is used in the same room, or the DV-SP405 is installed close to equipment that uses infrared rays, the remote controller may not work reliably.

• Don’t put anything, such as a book, on the remote controller, because the buttons may be pressed inadvertently, thereby draining the batteries.

• The remote controller may not work reliably if the DV-SP405 is installed in a rack behind colored glass doors. Keep this in mind when installing the DV-SP405.

• The remote controller will not work if there’s an obstacle between it and the DV-SP405’s remote control sensor.

Connecting the DV-SP405

Before Making Any Connections

• Read the manuals supplied with your AV components.

• Don’t connect the power cord until you’ve completed all audio and video connections.

Optical Digital Output (Oceanian model only)

The optical digital connector is fitted with protective cap. Before connecting a cable, remove the cap and keep it safely. When you disconnect the cable, put the cap back in.

RCA AV Connection Color Coding

RCA AV connections are usually color coded: red, white, and yellow. Use red plugs to connect right-channel audio inputs and outputs (typically labeled “R”). Use white plugs to connect left-channel audio inputs and outputs (typically labeled “L”). And use yellow plugs to connect composite video inputs and outputs.

Right (red)

Left (white)

(Yellow)

• Push each plug in all the way to make a good connection (loose connections can cause noise or malfunctions).

• To prevent interference, keep audio and video cables away from power cords and speaker cables.

Component video separates the luminance (Y) and color difference signals (PR, PB), providing the best picture quality. Some TV manufacturers label their component video inputs differently.

S-Video provides better picture quality than composite video.

Composite video can be found on virtually all TVs, VCRs, and video equipment.

SCART connections carry audio and video (composite, S-Video, RGB) all in one cable.

Optical digital audio connections provide better audio quality than analog connections.

Coaxial digital audio connections provide better audio quality than analog connections.

RCA analog audio connectors can be found on virtually all AV components.

DIGITAL COAXIAL

AUDIO OUTPUT

ANALOG

INPUT

405

Important:

• This player is equipped with copy protection technology. Do not connect this player to your TV via a VCR using AV cables, as the picture from this player will not appear properly on your TV. (This player may also not be compatible with some combination TV/VCRs for the same reason; refer to the manufacturer for more information.)

• When connecting to your TV as shown above, do not set the “Component Out” setting (page 46) to “Progressive”.

1. Connect the VIDEO OUTPUT and ANALOG

AUDIO OUTPUT L/R jacks to a set of A/V inputs on your TV.

Use the supplied AV cable (RCA), connecting the red and white plugs to the audio outputs and the yellow plug to the video output. Make sure you match up the left and right audio outputs with their corresponding inputs for correct stereo sound. See page 21 if you want to use a component, SVideo cable or SCART cable for the video connection.

Supplied AV cable

To power outlet

2. Oceanian and European models: Connect the supplied AC power cord to the AC INLET, then plug into a power outlet.

North American model: Connect the power cord to power outlet.

Notes:

• Before unplugging the player from the power outlet,

make sure you first switch it into standby using either the front panel STANDBY/ON button, or the remote controller, and wait of the “OFF” message to disappear from the player’s display.

• For the above reasons, do not plug this player into a

switched power supply found on some amplifiers and AV r ec eiv e rs.

STANDBY/ON

Note:

• If you connect a TV that is not compatible with a progressive scan signal and switch the player to progressive, you will not be able to see any picture at component out. In this case, switch everything off and reconnect using the supplied video cable, then switch back to “Interlace”.
