Ensure that the drive belt is set to the 33 1/3 RPM setting on the pulley. Connect the turntable interconnect between the TTPSU and the turntable. Make sure the PS1 mains transformer is plugged in and connected to the 24V AC input terminal in the back of the TTPSU. Switch the mains power on. Push the power button on the front panel to turn the TTPSU on - When the power supply is switched on, the Rega logo will illuminate RED, This indicates that 33 rpm is selected.
The TTPSU has been designed to be easy to use, and above all to reproduce music. There are two different versions of the TTPSU (Turntable Power Supply Unit): TTPSU STANDARD - Used as an upgrade for 50Hz P3-24 classic, P5, and RP3 models, supplied as standard with all RP6 turntables. TTPSU SPECIAL - Used as an upgrade for 60Hz P3-24 classic, P5, RP3 Models.
INTRODUCTION The TTPSU and motor anti-vibration circuit is a combination of the long established P9 power supply along with an improved RP6 anti-vibration motor drive feeding a 24V AC synchronous motor. The TTPSU uses a remote "wall wart" transformer therefore keeping the sources of hum & noise well away from sensitive parts such as the cartridge and phono leads.

DO'S AND DON'TS -NEVER connect both the upgrade power supply box and the Rega PS1 power supply to the turntable at the same time - this may damage the TTPSU unit. -Do not unplug the power supply from the turntable whilst the unit is on - turn off the power supply before unplugging. -Do not operate the power supply without the turntable connected. -As you would expect there is a 24V AC plus a 20V DC signal present on the pins of the plug - if these are shorted it will cause damage to the power unit.
Notes on the TTPSU special only (60hz): When changing speed from 33 1/3 to 45 RPM on the TTPSU Special upgrade supply we suggest you observe the following: It is advised to turn power supply & turntable on with 33 RPM selected on the power supply, and then selecting 45 RPM using the speed control switch on the power supply unit.
