DC-1 Digital Controller
The inputs labeled VCR-1, VCR-2, V-DISC, TV and AUX normally have
corresponding video inputs. The inputs labeled CD, TUNER, and TAPE do
not have associated video inputs, and default to the video input VCR1. For
maximum configuration flexibility, each of the five video inputs can be
assigned to a different input, or to multiple inputs. If the assigned video
input has both S-Video and composite jacks, the S-video signal takes
priority whenever a cable is plugged into the appropriate S-video connec-
tor. (In previous versions of the DC-1, this control was labeled "Video".)
The DC-1 is designed to be the control center of any system. As such, there
are separate outputs for easy integration of external recording devices as
well as additional "zones" in multi-room installations.
The Record and Zone 2 outputs on the DC-1 are wired in parallel so that the
input selection will always be the same for both. For example, if the CD input
is selected for Record, the CD input is also output to Zone 2. The only
difference between the Record and Zone 2 outputs is that Zone 2 has its own
volume control, while the Record output level is fixed. When the DC-1 is
powered up, the Zone 2 output is muted.
The DC-1 does not normally assign any input selected for the Main zone
(indicated by a lit green LED at the front panel input button), to the Record
and Zone 2 outputs. Audio is only present at the Zone 2 outputs when an
input is selected for Record/Zone 2. The procedure for assigning these
outputs is described below.
To assign the current input to the Record/Zone 2 outputs, press and hold
REC/ZONE 2 until the red LEDs at the appropriate front panel input button
and at the front panel REC/ZONE 2 button light.
To clear the assignment, press and hold REC/ZONE 2 until the LEDs turn
off.
For Example:
CD is selected for the Main output (and its front panel green LED is lit).
Pressing and holding down the remote control or front panel
REC/ZONE 2 button will light the red LED above the front panel
REC/ZONE 2 button as well as the red LED above the currently selected
input (CD).
You have now assigned CD to the Record/Zone 2 outputs. In this state, new
input selections will not affect the Record/Zone 2 outputs.
Now, suppose you want to change the Record/Zone 2 assignment to the
TUNER input. To do this, press CD and press and hold REC/ZONE 2 until
the red front panel LEDs turn off.

NOTE: S-Video input signals will be
output on both the composite and
S-Video jacks. However, if you are
only connecting to the monitor via
the S-Video output, composite video
input sources will not be displayed.
