Selecting fine audio equipment such as the unit you’ve just purchased is only the start of your musical enjoyment. Now it’s time to consider how you can maximize the fun and excitement your equipment offers. This manufacturer and the Electronic Industries Association’s Consumer Electronics Group want you to get the most out of your equipment by playing it at a safe level. One that lets the sound come through loud and clear without annoying blaring or distortion-and, most importantly, without affecting your sensitive hearing.

Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing “comfort level” adapts to higher volumes of sound. So what sounds “normal” can actually be loud and harmful to your hearing. Guard against this by setting your equipment at a safe level BEFORE your hearing adapts.

To establish a safe level: • Start your volume control at a low setting.• Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it

comfortably and clearly, and without distortion.

Once you have established a comfortable sound level:• Set the dial and leave it there.

Taking a minute to do this now will help to prevent hearing damage or loss in the future. After all, we want you listening for a lifetime.

We Want You Listening For A Lifetime

Used wisely, your new sound equipment will provide a lifetime of fun and enjoyment. Since hearing damage from loud noise is often undetectable until it is too late, this manufacturer and the Electronic Industries Association’s Consumer Electronics Group recommend you avoid prolonged exposure to excessive noise. This list of sound levels is included for your protection.

DecibelLevel Example

30 Quiet library, soft whispers 40 Living room, refrigerator, bedroom away from traffic 50 Light traffic, normal conversation, quiet office 60 Air conditioner at 20 feet, sewing machine 70 Vacuum cleaner, hair dryer, noisy restaurant 80 Average city traffic, garbage disposals, alarm clock at two feet.

THE FOLLOWING NOISES CAN BE DANGEROUS UNDER CONSTANT EXPOSURE

90 Subway, motorcycle, truck traffic, lawn mower 100 Garbage truck, chain saw, pneumatic drill 120 Rock band concert in front of speakers, thunderclap 140 Gunshot blast, jet plane 180 Rocket launching pad

Additional informationTaking care of yourplayer and discs

Handling discsWhen holding discs of any type, take care not toleave fingerprints, smears or scratches on the discsurface. Hold the disc by an edge or pinched between the center hole and an edge.Damaged or dirty discs can affect playbackperformance. Take care also not to scratch thelabel side of the disc. Although not as fragile asthe recorded side, scratches can still result in adisc becoming corrupted or unusable.Should a disc become marked with fingerprints,dust, etc., clean using a soft, dry cloth, wipingthe disc lightly from the center to an outsideedge as shown in the diagram below.

Wipe lightly from the center of the discusing straight strokes.

Don't wipe the disc surface usingcircular strokes.

If necessary, use a cloth soaked in alcohol, or acommercially available CD/DVD cleaning kit toclean a disc more thoroughly. Never use benzine, or any other cleaning agents, includingproducts designed for cleaning vinyl records.

Storing discsAlthough CDs and DVD discs are more durablethan vinyl records, you should still handle and store discs carefully. When not in use, return the disc to its jewele cas or jacket and store vertically.Avoid leaving discs in excessively cold, humid, orhot environments (including in direct sunlight)..Do NOT place paper stickers onto the disc. Whenwriting on a disc, do NOT mark with a pencil, ball-point pen, or other sharp-tipped writing instrument that may damage a disc.

For more detailed care information see theinstructions that come with the discs.Do not load more than one disc into the player ata time.

Discs to avoidDiscs spin at high speeds inside the player. Discsthat are cracked, chipped or warped can damgeor possibly destroy the player's optics..

This player is designed for use with conventional,circular discs only. Shaped discs such as businesscard sized are not recommended for this product.Pioneer disclaims all liability arising in connectionwith the use of shaped discs.

Cleaning the unit’s exterior• Use a polishing cloth or dry cloth to wipe off

dust and dirt. If the surfaces are very dirty,wipe with a soft cloth dipped in someneutral cleanser diluted five or six timeswith water. Wring out the cloth well beforewiping then use a dry cloth to wipe again.

• Do not use furniture wax or cleaners. Neveruse thinners, benzine or insecticide spraysor other chemicals on or near this unit sincethese chemicals can corrode the surfaces.

• If you use a chemically-treated cleaningcloth, read the instructions carefully beforeuse. These cloths may leave smear markson half-mirror finish surfaces; if thishappens, finish with a dry cloth.

• Unplug the unit when cleaning.

Cleaning the pickup lensThe DVD player’s lens should not become dirty innormal use; if for some reason it shouldmalfunction due to dust or dirt, consult yournearest Pioneer-authorized service center.Although lens cleaners for CD players arecommercially available, we do not recommendusing them since some may damage the lens.

Problems with condensationCondensation may form inside the player if it isbrought into a warm room from outside, or if thetemperature of the room rises quickly. Althoughthe condensation won't damage the player, itmay temporarily impair its performance. For thisreason you should allow it to adjust to thewarmer/cooler temperature for approximately an hour before switching on the unit.

Hints on installationWe want you to enjoy using this product for yearsto come, so please bear in mind the followingpoints when choosing a suitable location for it:

Do...• Use in a well-ventilated room• Place on a solid, flat, level surface, such as

a table, shelf or stereo rack

Screen sizes and discformatsDVD-Video discs come in several different screenaspect ratios, ranging from TV programs, whichare generally 4:3, to CinemaScope widescreenmovies, with an aspect ratio of up to about 7:3.Televisions, too, come in different aspect ratios;`standard' 4:3 and widescreen 16:9.

Widescreen TV usersFor Widescreen TVs, set the player's TV Screenoption (page 21) to the widescreen aspect ratio,16:9 (Wide).When watching discs with the standard 4:3,use the TV controls to select how the pictureappears. Your TV may offer various zoom andstretch options; see the operating instructionsprovided with your TV or monitoring system.Please note that some movie aspect ratios arewider than 16:9. Thus, although the picture isshown in widescreen, these video clips play in a`letter box' style with black bars at the top andbottom of the screen.

Standard TV usersIf you have a standard TV, the TV Screen setting(page 21) of this player should be set to 4:3(Letter Box) or 4:3 (Pan&Scan), depending onyour preferences.4:3 (Letter Box), widescreen discs are shownwith black bars above and below the picture.

4:3 (Pan&Scan), widescreen discs are shownwith the left and right sides cropped. While the picture appears larger, the visible area isactually reduced.

Please note that many widescreen productions overridethe player's settings so that the disc is shown in theauthor's chosen aspect ratio, regardless of the setting.

• Using the 16:9 (Wide) setting with a standard4:3 TV/monitor, or either of the 4:3 settingswith a widescreen TV, results in a distortedpicture.

Titles, Chapters and Tracks.DVD discs are generally divided into one or moretitles. Titles may be further subdivided intochapters.

Extend TerminalTo activate a function, create a switch contact with an electrical ground (Pin 1). Refer to page 71“Interface Connector” to verify pin (Pin 6 through Pin 13) and terminal (SW1 ~ SW8) assignments.There are three switch (SW) functions in the EXTEND TERMINAL CONTROL.

1 To recall Barcode/Command Stacks and executeThe function, STACK GROUP 1 to STACK GROUP 27, is similar to a combination of remote controlbuttons that recall and execute a stack.

2 To execute the function as a remote control commandThe function acts in the same manner as remote control buttons (ENTER, PLAY, STOP, etc.) excludingSCAN FWD/REV.When the remote control’s SCAN buttons ( , ) are pressed and released, the scan operationcontinues. However, the SCAN FWD/SCAN REV keys on the Extend Terminal operate only while helddown; the operation stops when the keys are released.

3 To execute as an advanced remote control buttonAdvanced remote control commands such as numbers from 10 to 20 may be sent as a switch controlcommand.

Computer Control Functions

Serial ControlThe player and computer are based upon the RS-232C protocol and connect through theTxD, RxD, DTR and GND terminals.Extend TerminalControl the player with the Extend Terminal(SW#).External Power ControlControl the player’s power with the Power Pinwithin the Interface Connector.If the player detects a high signal throughput(100m/sec or more) during the Standby mode,the player powers ON. If the player detects thesame signal during the Power ON mode, theplayer powers OFF and switches to the Standbymode.The specifications for the Power pin are asfollows:

Maximum Input VoltageHigh Level SignalLow level Signal

Less Than 12 VMore Than 4.5 VLess Than 0.5 V

Standby mode Power ONmore Than100 msec

Power ON mode Power OFFmore Than100 msec

Serial Control

The signal interface is a standard RS-232Cconnection.Data Type

Data Length: 8 bitStop Bit: 1 bitParity bit: No Parity

Data Transfer Speed (Baud Rate)The data transfer speed may be set toeither 19200 or 9600 bps through theADV. SETUP menu (see page 42).

• The factory default is 19200 bps.

Communication with a ComputerThe DVD-V5000 communicates to the computerthrough the RS-232C port using pins 2 and 3 forcommunication and Pin 1 on the 15-pin D-subconnector or Pin 5 on the 9-pin D-sub connector for grounding. Control or “handshaking” lines other than the TxD and RxD connections are notrequired. Please refer to the diagram below forclarification.

Computer DVD-V5000

TxD Pin 3 – RxD

RxD Pin 2 – TxD

GND Pin 1 – GND (Pin 5 – GND

Some computers require the CTS port to be setto HIGH during communication. It is best toconnect the CTS and DSR port on the computerto the DTR port on the player. During normaloperation the player’s DTR is set to HIGH thusthe unit is able to receive a command at anytime.

Command and StatusDuring normal operation when a computertransmits commands to a DVD-V5000, the playerresponds with the status message, ‘executioncomplete’.

ExampleCOMPUTER DVD-V5000

(1) “Search to Frame 1000” (2) Search Execution (3) Complete

(4) “Play to Frame 2000” (5) Play Execution (6) Complete

Example10SE 20PL<CR> : Search to Chapter 10

then play to 20

The command string enters the buffer with thefirst character and continues sequentially fromleft to right. When <CR> is entered, thecommands are executed sequentially beginningwith the first command in the buffer. In theexample above, the first command is 10SE.

73


When all the commands in a string have finished executing, the player transmits or returns the“complete” message that is represented by a capital letter R.

If an error occurs, the player returns an error message such as E04. The message indicates an errorhas occurred as well as the type of error. Error messages are in the form of EXX where XX represents a2-digit error code.

Error MessagesIf an error occurs during a command execution, the player returns an error code. The table below listseach code with a description of the error:

Glossary

Analog audioAn electrical signal that directly representssound. Compare this to digital audio which canbe an electrical signal, but is an indirectrepresentation of sound. See also Digital audio.

Aspect ratioThe width of a TV screen relative to its height.Conventional TVs are 4:3 (in other words, thescreen is almost square); widescreen models are16:9 (the screen is almost twice as wide as it ishigh).

Digital audioAn indirect representation of sound by numbers.During recording, the sound is measured atdiscrete intervals (44,100 times a second for CDaudio) by an analog-to-digital converter, generat-ing a stream of numbers. On playback, a digital-to-analog converter generates an analog signalbased on these numbers. See also Samplingfrequency and Analog audio.

Dolby DigitalUsing a maximum of 5.1 channels of audio, thishigh quality surround system is used in many ofthe finer movie theaters around the world.The on-screen display shows which channels areactive, for example showing 3/2.1. The 3 beingthe two front channels and the center channel;the 2 being the surround channels, and the .1being the LFE channel.

DTSDTS stands for Digital Theater Systems. DTS is asurround system different from Dolby Digital thathas become a popular surround sound formatfor movies.

Dynamic rangeThe difference between the quietest and loudestsounds possible in an audio signal (withoutdistorting or getting lost in noise). Dolby Digitaland DTS soundtracks are capable of a very widerange, delivering dramatic cinema-like effects.

MPEG audioAn audio format used on Video CDs and someDVD discs. This unit can convert MPEG audio toPCM format for wider compatibility with digitalrecorders and AV amplifiers. See also PCM(Pulse Code Modulation).

MPEG videoThe video format used for Video CDs and DVDs.Video CD uses the older MPEG-1 standard, whileDVD uses the newer and much better qualityMPEG-2 standard.

PBC (PlayBack Control) (Video CD only)A system of navigating a Video CD through on-screen menus recorded onto the disc. Especiallygood for discs that you would normally not watchfrom beginning to end all at once—karaokediscs, for example.

PCM (Pulse Code Modulation)The most common system of encoding digitalaudio, found on CDs and DAT. Excellent quality,but requires a lot of data compared to formatssuch as Dolby Digital and MPEG audio. Forcompatibility with digital audio recorders (CD,MD and DAT) and AV amplifiers with digitalinputs, this unit can convert Dolby Digital, DTSand MPEG audio to PCM. See also Digital audio.

Regions (DVD-Video only)These associate discs and players with particularareas of the world. This unit will only play discsthat have compatible region codes. You can findthe region code of your unit by looking on therear panel. Some discs are compatible with morethan one region (or all regions).

Sampling frequencyThe rate at which sound is measured to beturned into digital audio data. The higher therate, the better the sound quality, but the moredigital information is generated. Standard CDaudio has a sampling frequency of 44.1kHz,which means 44,100 samples (measurements)
