About the "CS1D Operation Manual (Basic Operation)"

The "CS1D Operation Manual (Basic Operation)" explains basic operation of the PM1D system, such as connecting the
input sources and playback system, operating the CS1D console, and using the display of the CS1D to make various set-
tings.
The "CS1D Operation Manual (Basic Operation)"
assumes that the various components of the PM1D
system have been connected and are operating cor-
rectly. For details on connecting the components of
the PM1D system and verifying that they are operat-
ing correctly, refer to "CS1D Operation Manual
(Start-up)."
For details on the specifications and functions of the
engine (DSP unit DSP1D-EX {DSP1D}) and input/
output units, refer to the manual included with each
unit.

Differences between the 96 channel model and 48
channel model
The PM1D system is available either as a 48 channel
model or a 96 channel model, which differ in the
number of available input channels. In general, the
"CS1D Operation Manual (Basic Operation)" is
written for the 96 channel model of the PM1D sys-
tem (the model that uses the DSP1D-EX as its
engine). When the specifications differ between the
96 channel mode and the 48 channel model (the
model that uses the DSP1D as its engine), the specifi-
cations of the 48 channel model are given in curly
brackets { }.
Example : A number 1–96 {1–48} will be displayed in
the NUMBER indicator.
Standard mode and Mirror mode
The PM1D system supports two operation modes
(an element that defines the structure and connec-
tion method for the system): "Standard mode" (in
which one engine is connected to one console), or
"Mirror mode" (in which two engines are connected
to one console, but only one engine is used).
Please note that the mode in which the PM1D system
is used will affect not only the number of engines,
but also the method of connections and the internal
settings.
Explanatory material that applies only to Standard
mode is indicated by the following icon.

For a more detailed explanation of the functions and
operation of the controls and connectors on the top
panel, rear panel, and front panel of the console
(CS1D), refer to the "CS1D Reference Manual
(Hardware)."
For details on the functions and operation of the
software in the display of the console (CS1D), refer
to the "CS1D Reference Manual (Software)."
Screen shots shown in this manual are taken from a
prototype. Please be aware that they may differ
slightly from the actual screens on your unit.
Explanatory material that applies only to Mirror
mode is indicated by the following icon.

Other than Mirror mode, version 1.0 of the PM1D
system does not support an operation mode that
uses two engines.
Distinguishing CS1D controllers from the on-
screen knobs/buttons
Controllers (switches, encoders, volumes) on the top
panel, rear panel, or front panel of the CS1D are
enclosed in square brackets [ ] to distinguish them
from knobs or buttons that appear in the display.
Example : Turn on the [ON] switch.
(This refers to an operation on the top panel of the
CS1D.)
Example : Click the BASIC button.
(This refers to an operation in the display.)
Various icons
The following icon is used to indicate operating tips
or pages to which you should refer.
Hint
The following icon is used to indicate particularly
important points, or operations of which you must
be careful.
