AC power switch.
Front Panel Features PLAY/PAUSE button. Pressing this button starts or resumes playback of the inserted disc if the disc is stopped or paused, or pauses playback if pressed when the disc is already playing. Pressing PLAY/PAUSE from Stop Mode restarts the disc from the beginning, whereas pressing it from Resume Mode continues playback from the last location. The front panel display will either indicate Play Mode with the word Play and the H symbol, or Pause Mode with the word Pause and the B symbol.
Front Panel Features RC-89 Remote Control Alphanumeric Display The front-panel vacuum-fluorescent display has two rows of 11 large matrix characters and a set of dedicated ‘flags’ at the top of the display which indicate the selection of various transport modes, disc types and encoding systems. In general, the upper row of the alphanumeric display indicates transport modes (Play, Stop, Pause, etc.
RC-89 Remote Control The RC-89 Remote Control Unit (infra-red handset) supplied with the UDP-89 duplicates most of the front panel buttons in both function and operation. Numerous additional keys are also provided: a set of 0-9 numeric keys for direct access to individual disc tracks/chapters, and several sets of buttons permitting alteration of various settings such as ZOOM, ANGLE, VOLUME, etc. The operation of some of the buttons may be dependent on disc content or type.
Quick Start Quick Start Quick Start This section is to enable you put the UDP-89 to use as quickly as possible, and provides a simple step-by-step guide to the basic procedure for replaying audio and video from the two most common types of disc: standard audio CDs and commerciallyproduced DVD-Vs. REF Video Output CONNECT TO (EXAMPLE) 8 Component Video High-quality video monitor with RGB or YPbPr component inputs. Use the CV output (9) as sync when set to RGB format.
Quick Start Connecting for audio Playing DVD Video discs Stereo and multichannel audio outputs are available at the rear of the UDP-89 in a variety of analogue and digital formats, for connection to audio amplifiers, powered loudspeakers, D-A converters or audio inputs on video display devices such as monitors, TVs or projectors. Any or all of the outputs may be used simultaneously, if required.
Quick Start Playing CDs Note: The following instructions refer to the front panel controls only; unless otherwise stated, the corresponding buttons on the RC-89 Remote Control Unit may be used if preferred. • With the UDP-89 suitably connected for video and audio . as above, switch the unit on with the power button If it is already in Standby Mode (with the power button illuminated), the STANDBY/ON button on the Remote Control Unit may be used to turn the unit on.
Basic Operation Basic Operation Powering the UDP-89 Loading and Ejecting Discs The front panel POWER switch turns the unit on and off. Note that this switch is mechanically-latching, and isolates the unit from the AC mains when off. The UDP-89 is also equipped with a Standby Mode, which is activated with the STANDBY/ ON button on the RC-89 Remote Control Unit. The unit may be powered on and off from this state using the remote control alone. Press the EJECT button will show: to open the disc tray.
Basic Operation Audio Level With all types of discs, the volume of the audio can be adjusted from the UDP-89 itself, using the VOLUME up-and-down buttons on the RC-89 remote control unit. Note that this adjustment applies to all analogue audio outputs in use, both stereo and multichannel. The UDP-89 also permits level adjustment of the individual audio channels of the analogue multitrack output, via the CH SELECT and CH LEVEL up-and-down buttons on the RC-89.
Basic Operation For example, if Track 1 is playing, and Direct Access Key 7 is pressed, the on-screen display first shows: Other Audio Disc Types CD-R and CD-RW 00:02:08/00:00:58 7/8 The UDP-89 will play CD-Rs and CD-RWs recorded as audio discs to the Red Book standard. This includes discs recorded in consumer and professional CD recorders (the HHB CDR-882 and CDR-830 are examples of the latter) as well as discs recorded in computer disc drives using audio disc-burning software such as Nero or Roxio.
Basic Operation Secret Garden DVD-As (DVD-Audio discs) CD Layer Beauty The UDP-89 supports DVD-Audio discs recorded in accordance to the recommendations of DVD Forum WG-4. DVD-A discs store multi-channel audio up to 96 kHz, 24-bit, or stereo up to 192 kHz, 24-bit using Meridian Lossless Packing (MLP) compression.
Basic Operation Playing discs with video content CD-ROMs and DVD-ROMs containing audio files The UDP-89 will replay MP3 files (MPEG1/2 Layer 3) on any of the supported media (CD-R/RW, DVDR/RW). Playing MP3 files After loading, a disc containing MP3 files will produce the front panel and on-screen displays shown below: Transport Controls 00:00:05/00:04:03 6/8 On loading a standard DVD-V, the following displays are typical of those presented after the disc has been loaded and read: / Track06.
Basic Operation Pressing PLAY/PAUSE from Play Mode will freeze the video and mute the audio (Pause Mode); a second press resumes Play Mode. (Note the RC-89 Remote Control Unit has separate Play and Pause buttons.
Basic Operation Time & Other Displays The UDP-89’s front panel display shows the elapsed time of the currently-selected Title (in the form h:mm:ss). “Zero” time will generally be the start of Chapter 1. Pressing the TOP MENU button with a VCD or SVCD loaded activates Playback Control (PBC), which provides a system of basic disc navigation. The front panel display will indicate PBC On, and the disc will re-locate to a disc menu prepared at the disc authoring stage listing the available tracks on the disc.
Additional Features Additional Features Search The UDP-89’s Search function provides a method of quickly locating to any point on the disc and commencing playback from there. The location point is entered in standard hh:mm:ss format (hours, minutes and seconds) and may be either the track/chapter time or the disc time. The Search function is entered with the SEARCH button on the remote control unit. (Note there is no alternative front panel control for this function.
Additional Features Storing and Cueing to a Marker Point Locating to the Marker point: The UDP-89 has a “scratchpad” location memory, which can be used to store a marker point in programme material “on-the-fly”. The marker point can easily be recalled and located to at a later time. Press CUE to open the Cue pop-up window, and press MARK/ ENTER. The disc will immediately locate to the Cue point and play from there (unless Auto-Pause Mode is enabled; see next section). The pop-up window closes.
Additional Features Slow-motion playback Program Play The UDP-89 has a Slow Mode, which permits the replay of the video content of DVD-Video discs and VCD/SVCD discs in slowmotion. Sometimes it necessary to play individual items of programme material on a disc in an order other than that in which they are recorded. The UDP-89’s Program function permits the user to program the order in which tracks (CD, SACD or DVD-A) or chapters (DVD) are replayed.
Additional Features 00:02:15/00:02:45 Play Mode Track02 T03 C06 Play 2 T04 C05 Clear Program 3 T04 C03 h Edit mode Track05 Browser view Track01 Clear program J 1 Repeat: Off -/3 c) Program Clear Music Playing PROGRAM VIEW mode When in Program view, the Add to program button changes to Clear program (see above). To delete tracks from the programmed list, select the tracks to delete, pressing MARK/ ENTER on each in turn, then select Clear program.
Additional Features Repeat Play Repeat 1 The UDP-89 Repeat functions allow the UDP-89 to be used for continuous playback, with a user-defined section of programme material being played in a loop until the function is cancelled. The Repeat 1 function can be selected from any transport mode (except Resume or Stop with DVDs and SACDs) by a single press of REPEAT.
Additional Features Repeat All Repeat Folder This operates in a very similar way to Repeat 1. Further presses of REPEAT from any transport mode (except Stop with DVDs or SACDs) will enable Repeat All, confirmed by: REPEAT CD ALL A further Repeat option, Repeat Folder, is available for discs containing files of type such as MP3 or jpg.
Additional Features Shuffle Mode Music Intro Mode Shuffle Mode allows the tracks on a CD or chapters on a DVD to be played in a random order. The method of enabling Shuffle Mode is different for the two disc types. Music Intro is a useful method of identifying tracks on a CD-A or a disc containing MP3 audio files. When selected, only the first 10 seconds of each track or file on the disc is played.
Additional Features • If the Surround Speaker are set to None, then the main L & R stereo outputs will be standard stereo. In this format, the left rear channel is added to the main left channel, and the right rear channel is added to the main right channel. Left = L + (0.707 x C) + (0.707 x Ls) Right = R + (0.707 x C) + (0.707 x Rs) Digital audio data in various formats is available at the two and coaxial ), the AES/EBU S/PDIF connectors (optical output and also the dedicated HDMI connector .
Additional Features Multichannel bass management Multichannel level trims Practical surround sound loudspeaker systems frequently have smaller units in the rear and centre positions, and these may not offer an extended LF response compared with the main left and right front speakers. Other systems may not include a centre speaker at all, or no dedicated sub-woofer.
Additional Features Video configuration Pink Noise calibration The optimum setting is for the audio level from all the speakers in a multichannel system-up to be the same. This can be difficult to achieve with many types of programme material and to facilitate adjustment the UDP-89 provides an internal pink noise source to generate a known audio level, which can be applied to each channel in turn.
Additional Features Signalling of the widescreen format is also possible with NTSC and 480p/576p progressive scan video signals. The UDP-89 outputs the appropriate widescreen “flags”, however not all display devices may be able to correctly interpret the signalisation. RGB-to-SCART connections Display devices equipped with suitable SCART connectors (so-called SCART 1 type) may be able to receive RGB component video to produce a picture of significantly higher quality than composite video.
Additional Features Eject Lock Zoom The UDP-89’s Zoom feature lets you zoom in on the central area of the displayed video image. Zoom is activated with the ZOOM button on the remote control unit. There are three levels of Zoom; successive presses of the ZOOM button step through the magnifications, the front panel display confirming ZOOM 1, ZOOM 2 and ZOOM 3 in turn. A further press returns the image to normal. ZOOM 3 is approximately equivalent to 2x magnification.
Additional Features Setup Menu Language Settings Many of the UDP-89’s settings and options are controlled via the Setup Menu, which is accessed with the SETUP button on either the front panel or the RC-89 remote control unit. The front panel confirms Setup with the message: The Language submenu permits a choice of language for various unit and disc functions.
Additional Features TV System — this should be set according to the prevailing video standard in your territory. The options are: • Auto — this is the factory default setting. With TV System set to Auto, the video output follows the standard recorded on the disc. This is the best setting if your display device is able to auto-select between NTSC and PAL formats. When no disc is playing, the standard used is that of the last video disc or file played. • NTSC — video outputs will be to the NTSC standard.
Additional Features Audio settings Refer to Multichannel bass management on page 34 and Audio level and delay adjustment on page 34. The crossover frequency of the bass management is 100Hz. Bass management — When set to On, low frequencies below 100 Hz in the centre and rear channels (when set to Small) are sent to the front channels. Setting this item to Off (the default) cancels this filtering, and the centre and rear channels receive the full frequency range.
Additional Features Misc. submenu Remote Control – Parallel Port Restore defaults — Selecting Restore defaults resets all the items in the Setup Menu to their original factory settings. A full list of these can be found in Appendix 3 (page 47) at the end of this manual. The rear panel Parallel Remote Input permits control of five transport functions, and provides tallies for three functions.
Additional Features Parallel Port Setup Menu The Parallel Port Setup menu is accessed by pressing the SETUP button on the front panel for longer than 0.5 second while no disc is loaded (the front panel display should show No Disc.) The front panel display will then show Parallel Preset. The Parallel Port outputs (tallies) may be assigned in the same way; Output 1’s assignment will be displayed by a RIGHT cursor key press from Input 5.
Additional Features Abridged command set The commands listed in the below will perform the same function as their equivalent front panel buttons. For all other commands, data requests and responses, please refer to the UDP-89’s full RS232 protocol specification. Note 3: Level trim adjustment of the individual audio channels is possible via the RS232 port over the full range of control, from -10 dB to +10 dB, in 1 dB steps.
Appendix 1 - Connector Pinouts Appendix 1 - Connector Pinouts Note: Numbers refer to the rear panel diagram in “Connectivity” on page 10. All connector views are looking at the rear of the UDP-89. Phono and BNC connectors are omitted.
Appendix 1 - Connector Pinouts Electrical characteristics Both inputs and outputs are internally opto-isolated. The inputs are protected against over-voltages. Inputs The inputs simply require a short-to-ground for activation. Outputs The outputs are open-collector, and go low when activated. Loads such as LEDs may be connected externally with a suitable series resistor, and returned to the +ve terminal of an external PSU. The maximum current deliverable by the opto-isolator’s transistor is 50 mA.
