Making Power Supply
Connections
After making all signal connections, connect the left channel’s
analog dc in
on
the rear panel of the Nº30.5 to the
left audio dc out
on the rear panel of the PLS-
330; likewise, connect the right channel’s
analog dc in
on the rear panel of the
Nº30.5 to the
right audio dc out
on the rear panel of the PLS-330.
Connect
digital dc in
on the rear panel of the Nº30.5 to the
digital dc out
on the
rear panel of the PLS-330.
Connect the AC cord to the AC power connector on the bottom panel of the PLS-
330, then connect the AC cord to the AC mains; the LED on the PLS-330 and the
standby
LED on the Nº30.5 will light. After a few seconds, the Nº30.5 will begin
its self-test (the Display first shows
INITIALIZING
, then each of the eight input
aliases, and finally
LOCKING
as it attempts to lock onto input 1).
The Nº30.5 is now ready to operate.
For optimal sonic performance and longevity, the Nº30.5/PLS-330 is designed to
remain powered at all times. The
standby
button is provided so that you may
turn off the display and disable the front-panel controls when the Nº30.5 isn’t in
use (see “Front panel, Nº30.5”).
Naming Your Inputs
All inputs other than 1 and 4 are labelled
NOT USED
as delivered from the factory,
and will need to be given appropriate names before they are used. Giving inputs
appropriate names is simple and greatly enhances the ease of use of your new
Nº30.5, especially for occasional users of the system. The available names are
shown on page 24. To give an input a new name:
1
SELECT THE INPUT YOU WISH TO RENAME
Note that the input to be renamed needs to be the selected monitored in-
put. The input which is currently selected to be sent out the digital record
path is irrelevant to the renaming process.
2
PRESS AND HOLD THE DIGITAL RECORD SELECT BUTTON
After a delay of approximately five seconds, the display will change to
NAME =
(
the current name
), as shown below. If the current name for the
input is
NOT USED
, it will be abbreviated to
N.U.
This message informs you that the Nº30.5 is ready for you to change the
input’s name. (
Note that pressing and holding the
digital record select
but-
ton performs a different function than simply pressing it momentarily, which
would allow you to select a source for the digital record path.
