Glossary of useful concepts

• DC ( )
Direct Current, the type of power that
is output by batteries and power sup-
plies. In contrast, AC ( ~ ) stands for
Alternating Current, the type of power
supplied by the building mains (e.g.
230V AC).
• Connector power pack
Component integrated into the power
plug that converts the power from the
building mains to the power (e.g. 6V
DC) used by the device.
• LED
Light Emitting Diode = a semi-conductor
component that emits light. Generally
used for indicators on the front of a
device. The status indicator is an LED.
• Mini-stereo
A type of plug. It exists in mono and
stereo designs with diameters of 3.5
or 6.3 mm. It is frequently used due to
its simple shape and easy handling.
Used in audio equipment for micro-
phones, headphones and PCs. Adapters
exist for adapting to different plug
types and diameters.
• IR EXT.
This abbreviation refers to the infrared
port. It is required for transmission of
the remote control commands.
• CINCH (RCA)
Called RCA in the United States.
Coaxial connector frequently used for
audio/video connections, in this case
for connecting the radio transmission
set to a television. An AV signal is
transmitted with a three-pole CINCH
(RCA) cable:
• red and white (audio signals)
• yellow (video signal)
