CONTROL A1II and CONTROL A1
compatibility
Using the CONTROL A1II
control system (CDP-
XE570 only)
The CONTROL A1 control system has been
updated to the CONTROL A1II which is the
standard system in the Sony 300 disc CD
changer and other recent Sony components.
Components with CONTROL A1 jacks are
compatible with components with CONTROL
A1II, and can be connected to each other.
Basically, the majority of the functions
available with the CONTROL A1 control
system will be available with the CONTROL
A1II control system. However, when making
connections between components with
CONTROL A1 jacks and components with
CONTROL A1II jacks, the number of
This player is compatible with the CONTROL
A1II Control System.
The CONTROL A1II control system was
designed to simplify the operation of audio
systems composed of separate Sony
components. CONTROL A1II connections
provide a path for the transmission of control
signals that enable automatic operation and
control features usually associated with
integrated systems.
functions that can be controlled may be limited
depending on the component. For detailed
information, refer to the operating instructions
supplied with the component(s).
Currently, CONTROL A1II connections
between a Sony MD deck, CD player, amplifier
(receiver), and cassette deck provide automatic
function selection and synchronized recording.
Connecting the CONTROL
In the future the CONTROL A1II connection
will work as a multifunction bus allowing you
to control various functions for each
component.
A1II control system
Connect monaural (2P) mini-plug cables in
series to the CONTROL A1II jacks on the back
of each component. You can connect up to ten
CONTROL A1II compatible components in
any order. However, you can connect only one
of each type of component (i.e., 1 CD player, 1
MD deck, 1 tape deck and 1 receiver). (You
may be able to connect more than one CD
player or MD deck, depending on the model.
Refer to the operating instructions supplied
with the respective component for details.)
Note
The CONTROL A1II control system is designed to
maintain upward compatibility as the control system
is upgraded to handle new functions. In this case,
however, older components will not be compatible
with the new functions.

Synchronized recording
This function lets you conduct synchronized
recording between the CD and the recording
component.
In the CONTROL A1II control system, the
control signals flow both ways, so there is no
distinction of IN and OUT jacks. If a
component has more than one CONTROL A1II
jack, you can use either one, or connect
different components to each jack.
1 Set the source selector on the amplifier
(or receiver) to the CD.
2 Set the CD to playing pause mode
(make sure both the H and X
indicators light together).
About the connecting cable
When a CONTROL A1II compatible
component is not supplied with a connecting
cable, use a commercially available monaural
(2P) mini-plug cable less than 2 meters (6.6
feet) long, with no resistance (such as the Sony
RK-G69HG).
3 Set the recording component to
recording pause mode.
4 Press X on the deck.
The CD is automatically released from
pause mode, and recording begins shortly
thereafter.
When play ends from the CD, recording
stops.
Basic functions of the
CONTROL A1II control
system
Tip
Certain recorder components may be equipped with a
special synchronized recording functins that uses the
CONTROL A1II Control System; like “CD Synchro
Dubbing.” In this case, refer to the Operating
Automatic function selection
When you connect CONTROL A1II
compatible Sony components using
CONTROL A1II cables (not supplied), the
function selector on the amplifier (or receiver)
automatically switches to the correct input
when you press the play button on one of the
connected components.
Instructions supplied with the recorder component.
Note
Do not set more than one component to the pause
mode.
(For example, when you press H (play
button) on the CD while the MD deck is
playing, the function selector on the amplifier
switches from MD to CD.)
Notes
• This function works only when the components are
connected to the amplifier (or receiver) inputs
according to the names on the function buttons.
Certain receivers allow you to switch the names of
the function buttons. In this case, refer to the
operating instructions supplied with the receiver.
• When recording, do not play any components other
than the recording source. It will cause the
automatic function selection to operate.

Precautions
On safety
• Caution — The use of optical instruments with this
product will increase eye hazard.
Notes on CDs
• Should any solid object or liquid fall into the
cabinet, unplug the player and have it checked by
qualified personnel before operating it any further.
• Discs with non-standard shapes (e.g., heart, square,
star) cannot be played on this unit. Attempting to do
so may damage the unit. Do not use such discs.
On handling CDs
• To keep the disc clean, handle the disc by its edge.
Do not touch the surface.
• Do not stick paper or tape on the disc.
On power sources
• Before operating the player, check that the
operating voltage of the player is identical with
your local power supply. The operating voltage is
indicated on the nameplate at the rear of the player.
• The player is not disconnected from the AC power
source (mains) as long as it is connected to the wall
outlet, even if the player itself has been turned off.
• If you are not going to use the player for a long
time, be sure to disconnect the player from the wall
outlet. To disconnect the AC power cord (mains
lead), grasp the plug itself; never pull the cord.
• AC power cord must be changed only at the
qualified service shop.
• Do not expose the disc to direct sunlight or heat
sources such as hot air ducts, nor leave it in a car
parked in direct sunlight as there can be
considerable rise in temperature inside the car.
• Do not use any commercially available stabilizer. If
you do, the disc and the player may be damaged.
• After playing, store the disc in its case.
On cleaning
• Before playing, clean the disc with a cleaning cloth.
Wipe the disc from the centre out.
On placement
• Place the player in a location with adequate
ventilation to prevent heat build-up in the player.
• Do not place the player on a soft surface such as a
rug that might block the ventilation holes on the
bottom.
• Do not place the player in a location near heat
sources, or in a place subject to direct sunlight,
excessive dust or mechanical shock.
On operation
• Do not use solvents such as benzine, thinner,
commercially available cleaners or anti-static spray
intended for vinyl LPs.
• If the player is brought directly from a cold to a
warm location, or is placed in a very damp room,
moisture may condense on the lenses inside the
player. Should this occur, the player may not
operate properly. In this case, remove the disc and
leave the player turned on for about an hour until
the moisture evaporates.
Notes on CD-R/CD-RW playback
• Discs recorded on CD-R/CD-RW drives may not be
played back because of scratches, dirt, recording
condition, or the drive’s characteristics. Besides, the
discs, which are not yet finalized at the end of
recording, cannot be played back.
On adjusting volume
• Do not turn up the volume while listening to a
portion with very low level inputs or no audio
signals. If you do, the speakers may be damaged
when a peak level portion is played.
On cleaning
• Clean the cabinet, panel and controls with a soft
cloth slightly moistened with a mild detergent
solution. Do not use any type of abrasive pad,
scouring powder, or solvent such as alcohol or
benzine.
