Operation Manual

Connecting to your amplifier
To get sound from your DRX-601E/ES you need to connect it to your speakers via an amplifier.
This may be a stand alone unit or it may be built into your existing hi-fi system or powered
speakers.
1. Locate the OUTPUT sockets on the back of your DRX-601E/ES and the Tuner-in sockets on
the back of your amplifier.
2. Connect the white or black plugs to the white sockets (L) and red plugs to the red (R) sockets
using the supplied stereo phono cable.
Setting up
This section provides information on connecting your DRX-601E/ES to your hi-fi and connecting your aerial. Connector sockets are provided on
the back panel of your DRX-601E/ES. Before connecting other devices to your DRX-601E/ES, switch both devices off.
Connecting to an auxiliary source
If you have an existing radio tuner or other auxiliary device you can connect it through your
DRX-601E/ES to reduce connections to your amplifier. The auxiliary device output will then be
passed through the analogue outputs to your amplifier when your DRX-601E/ES is switched off.
1. Locate the INPUT sockets on the back of your DRX-601E/ES and the OUT sockets on the
back of your auxiliary device.
2. Connect the white or black plugs to the white sockets (L) and red plugs to the red (R) sockets
using a stereo phono cable.
Connecting to digital devices
Your DRX-601E/ES can provide digital audio output for connection to digital speakers, digital
devices such as MiniDisc, CD-R or DAT recorder or the digital input on your amplifier.
1. Locate the S/PDIF sockets on the back of your DRX-601E/ES and the digital-in socket on
your digital device.
2. Connect the devices via either the coaxial or the optical socket using a suitable cable.
Suitable connecting cables are available from VideoLogic, see the Accessories section on
page 12 for details.
Connecting to your aerial
You need to connect either the supplied indoor aerial or an external DAB
aerial to your DRX-601E/ES to receive digital radio transmissions. Refer
to the aerial advice sheet, supplied with your DRX-601E/ES for
information on the different types of aerials available. For information on
how to find out about DAB coverage in your area, see page 9.
1. Screw the aerial plug onto the F-type AERIAL connector on the rear
of your DRX-601E/ES.
2. For the best reception, if using the indoor aerial supplied, attach the aerial horizontally to a
wall using some adhesive tape and extend the arms on the end of the aerial wire vertically
into a ‘T’ shape on its side, as illustrated above.

Connecting to an external decoder
The RDI (Receiver Data Interface) optical connector provides access to raw multiplex data. This
may be used in the future to connect to an external decoder or computer for access to extra
services.
Connecting to power supply
Once all audio connections are complete as described above connect the power cord to a wall
outlet.
