PS REF 2: 
 

 

Front panel 

General description: 

The AC motor controller unit generates a dual sine wave output to control rotation and speed 
of  two  AC  synchronous  motors.    The  signal  is  generated  by  a  sophisticated  computer  based 
program.  This allows for smooth generation of the sine wave with very fine choice of speed. 
Each speed can be selected, finely adjusted independently and then stored in the memory.  The 
PS is factory preset.  Connect the motor cable to the motor output. 
It  may  take  few  hours  for  a  new  turntable  to  settle  at  the  correct  speed.    When  the  PS  is 
unplugged, the preset speeds will be stored.  
 
PS (Motor controller unit-MCU) connection: 
Position the MCU in such a way, that it will be convenient for operation of the turntable.  You 
should, however, allow space above for ventilation, of at least 10-20 mm. 
The  cable  which  connects  the  motor  controller  unit  and  turntable  has  a  five  pin  DIN  plug, 
which should be inserted and locked into the connectors at the rear of the MCU and turntable. 
Connect the mains cable into the mains and then switch on the MCU at the rear panel, which 
is left permanently on.  A red light and green display will light up on the front panel. 
 
 
Operation: 
1. Press the power button at the rear of the MCU firmly.  After 10 sec the MCU is ready.  The 
display will show 33 and above the start  button a  red  LED  will be shown. You can keep the 
MCU switched on all the time. 
2. By pressing the start button the red LED will turn green and the platter should start rotating.  
To stop platter simply press the start button again. The red LED will show and the platter will 
stop rotating. 
3. Press the speed button and the selected speed will change from 33 to 45.  Press again and it 
will return to 33. 
4. Do not press the start button before the mains switch is on.
