5 AUDIO 3-4 OUT/VIDEO 3-4 OUT/S-VIDEO 3-4 OUT: Connect the T 785' s
AUDIO 3 OUT/VIDEO 3 OUT/S-VIDEO 3 OUT or AUDIO 4 OUT/VIDEO 4
OUT/S-VIDEO 4 OUT jacks to the analog audio/video input of a recording
component such as a cassette deck, DVD recorder or to an outboard audio/
video processor. Connect the T 785' s AUDIO 3 IN/VIDEO 3 IN/S-VIDEO 3
IN or AUDIO 4 IN/VIDEO 4 IN/S-VIDEO 4 IN jacks to the component' s
corresponding output.
The signal present at these T 785 AUDIO/VIDEO OUT jacks is determined
by the source last selected via the front panel Source keys or the HTRC 1' s
input select keys with the exception of Source 3 or Source 4. There will be
no output at AUDIO 3 OUT/VIDEO 3 OUT/S-VIDEO 3 OUT when Source 3
(AUDIO 3 IN/VIDEO 3 IN/S VIDEO 3 IN) is selected. Likewise, there will be
no output at AUDIO 4 OUT/ VIDEO 4 OUT/S-VIDEO 4 OUT when Source
4 (AUDIO 4 IN/VIDEO 4 IN/S VIDEO 4 IN) is the active source input.. This
prevents feedback through the recording component thereby preventing
possible damage to your speakers.
When configured, AUDIO 3 OUT/VIDEO 3 OUT/S-VIDEO 3 OUT and
AUDIO 4 OUT/VIDEO 4 OUT/S-VIDEO 4 OUT are the same assigned ports
for Zone 3 and Zone 4 respectively. See also Zone output description
below.
6 MONITOR (S-VIDEO, VIDEO) : Connect to video input of the monitor/
television using quality dual-RCA and/or S-Video cables designed for
video signals. In general, the S-Video connection is superior and should
be used if your TV/monitor provides the corresponding input.
7 AUDIO 1-5 IN/VIDEO 1-5 IN/S-VIDEO 1-5 IN, AUDIO 6 IN : These
comprise the T 785's principal input. Connect S-Video, composite video,
and analog stereo audio from source components such as DVD players
and HDTV/satellite tuners.
AUDIO 3-4 IN/VIDEO 3-4 IN/S-VIDEO 3-4 IN may be used with
recording components such as videocassette or DVD-recorders by
connecting these components' record-output to the corresponding
T 785 AUDIO 3 IN/VIDEO 3 IN/S-VIDEO 3 IN or AUDIO 4 IN/VIDEO
4 IN/S-VIDEO 4 IN jacks. AUDIO 3 IN/VIDEO 3 IN/S-VIDEO 3 IN or
AUDIO 4 IN/VIDEO 4 IN/S-VIDEO 4 IN may freely be used for play-only
components, in which case their corresponding OUT jacks would
remain unconnected. Refer also to AUDIO 3 OUT/ VIDEO 3 OUT/S-VIDEO
3 OUT, AUDIO 4 OUT/VIDEO 4 OUT/S-VIDEO 4 OUT discussion above.
AUDIO 6 is ideal for the connection of the analog output of line-level
audio sources like a CD player or Stereo tuner.
8 7.1 CH INPUT : Connect to the corresponding analog audio outputs
of a multichannel source component such as a DVD-Audio or
multichannel-SACD player or external multichannel decoder (disc copy
protected formats only allow analog signal transfer). Typically, these
sources will produce 5.1-channel output, in which case the Surround
Back jacks are left unconnected. The signals present at these jacks may
be heard by selecting Source 7 (External 7.1 audio input is defaulted to
this Source).
There is no bass-management or other processing (other than master-
volume control) available to this 7.1 CH. Input. While the multi-channel
audio outputs of a DVD-Video player can be connected to these jacks,
using the T 785' s own Dolby Digital and DTS decoding and digital-analog
converters via a digital connection will usually produce superior results.
IDENTIFICATION OF CONTROLS
9 XM MODULE INPUT (120V version only): Connect XM radio cable
to this socket. Follow the instructions that came with your XM radio.
With XM radio, there are more than 100 channels of music, news, sports,
comedy, talk and entertainment. You will find that the coverage is
continent wide. The music quality is digital with many commercial-free
music channels.
NOTE
The external XM radio is not supplied with your T 785.
DAB MODULE INPUT (230V version only): Plug-in the other end
of the Mini-Din connector from the NAD DAB Adaptor DB 1 module
output port into this socket. The T 785 is compatible only with NAD
DAB Adaptor DB 1 so check with your NAD dealer for this module's
availability. With DAB, you can receive CD-like quality programs without
any annoying interference and signal distortion.
NOTE
The external "NAD DAB Adaptor DB 1 module" is not supplied with your T 785.
10 RS-232 : Connect this interface via RS-232 serial cable (not supplied)
to any Windows® compatible PC to allow remote control of the T 785
through NAD's proprietary PC software or other compatible external
controllers. Please log on to www.nadelectronics.com/software for the
latest PC interface control software. NAD is a certified partner of AMX
and Crestron and fully supports these external devices. See your NAD
audio specialist for more information
11 SOFT CLIPPING : Enables NAD's proprietary Soft Clipping circuitry on
all channels. At ON position, Soft Clipping gently limits the output of
the T 785 to minimize audible distortion should the A/V Receiver be
over-driven. Soft Clipping may simply be left ON at all times to reduce
the likelihood of audible distortion from excessive volume settings.
However, for critical listening and to preserve optimum dynamics, you
may wish to defeat it by setting this switch OFF.
12 +12 V TRIGGER OUT : There are three configurable +12V TRIGGER
OUTPUT. Use a 3.5mm mini-jack connector to pass +12 volts at a
maximum current of 50 milliamps to auxiliary equipment such as a
multichannel amplifier or subwoofer. The center conductor (hot) of the
3.5mm jack is the control signal. The outside conductor (shield) is the
ground return-path.
TRIGGER IN accepts 12V Trigger output of compatible components
such as power controllers and home automation devices.
TRIGGER OFF/AUTO. When at AUTO position, the T 785 selects the
12V Trigger Input to turn ON (if so assigned at the 'Trigger Setup' menu)
and at the same time disables the HTRC 1 and front panel's ON/OFF
function. When at OFF position, the trigger input is disabled.
WARNING
If Auto Trigger IN at Trigger Setup menu is assigned to 'Main' or 'All' and
the TRIGGER switch is set to 'AUTO' mode, the standby button in the front
panel as well as the corresponding ON/OFF function keys in the HTRC 1
remote control will be disabled effectively handing this function to an
external controller. Switch TRIGGER to 'OFF' to maintain normal power
ON/OFF function procedures.
See discussion on 'Trigger Setup' at the 'Setup Menu' literature for
guidelines on how to configure TRIGGER IN/OUT.
