Important read before making any connections
To avoid possible damage to your audio system, it is essential to disconnect
all system components from the mains supply before connecting or disconnecting
audio interconnects.
Connecting to the System Amplifier
· Connect a suitable stereo RCA phono interconnect between the OUT1 or OUT2
sockets and the corresponding input of the amplifier or receiver. Amplifier
inputs suitable for this purpose are line inputs.
Dual outputs are provided for convenient connection to multiroom units or for
direct connection to tape/disc recorders etc. DO NOT connect the CDi-XR to the
PHONO input of the amplifier, as this could damage your amplifier or speakers.
Connecting a Digital amplifier or D/A converter
The CDi-XR provides two digital outputs to connect to a digital amplifier or
D/A converter.
Connecting with a cable · Connect a single, digital interconnect between the
DIGITAL OUTPUT coaxial socket and a digital input of an amplifier or D/A
converter.
Connecting with optical interconnect · Connect a Toslink optical interconnect
between the
DIGITAL OUTPUT optical port and an optical input of an amplifier or D/A
converter. The cable connection is recommended for the best quality where this
connection is available. NOTE: The digital output of the CDi-XR is only
compatible with digital inputs. It is not suitable for connection to an
analogue amplifier.
External Power Supply – PSU-XR
The PSU-XR is a unique DC power supply that will upgrade the sonic performance
of compatible products in the Cyrus range.
· To connect a PSU-XR, disconnect both components from the mains.
· Plug the multi-pin interconnect from the PSU-XR into the PSU-XR socket on
the back panel.
CAUTION: Use only the interconnect supplied with the PSUXR. Other
interconnects may damage the PSU-XR and the amplifier.
· Connect a mains supply to both units.
NOTE: Connection of a PSU-XR is detected automatically, so no internal
adjustments are required.
How it works
The PSU-XR contains five separate power supplies. When a PSU-XR is connected
to a Cyrus product, the power from the PSU-XR is applied to specific parts of
the connected product.
The twin main power supply of the versatile PSU-XR can be configured to
increase the power reserve available for power amplification and servo
circuitry or provide ultrasmooth, low noise power for sensitive circuits such
as analogue preamplifiers.
Three additional regulated power supplies can be simultaneously applied to
other sensitive preamplifier or control circuits as required.
Connection of a PSU-XR will also bring a secondary benefit by significantly
reducing the load placed on internal power supplies and therefore reducing any
power supply related noise artefacts that may appear within the internal
circuitry.
MC-BUS System Connection (Optional)
By using the MC-BUS connection, a highly functional integrated system with
full remote control may be set up. This feature is usable if you own a Cyrus
amplifier. Refer to the relevant product handbook for MC-BUS wiring
instructions.
Connecting to the AC Mains Supply
· Connect the socket on the AC Power cable to the AC Power inlet the back
panel.
· Now connect the cable to a suitable AC power point.
There is no mains power switch. To switch off the mains supply remove the plug
from the wall outlet. For this reason, ensure that the plug is easily
accessible when installing the unit.

· Press the STORE key on the remote control once to set program mode (the
display will read Enter Tracks’) or twice to set exclude mode (the display will readSkip Tracks’).
· Enter the sequence of tracks to be stored (or skipped) with the remote
control numeric keypad.
A maximum of 30 tracks may be stored in the program memory. If an error is
made in the programming sequence, press on the remote control or touch to
cancel the last entry.
· When all the tracks have been stored, press the STORE key again on the
remote control (the display will now read Program Ready’. · Set the player to play the disc. The tracks will play in the programmed sequence. NOTe: 1\.Memory full’ indication will show on the display when the program stored
exceeds 30 tracks or a stored program time of 100 minutes or greater.
2. If disc playback is stopped while a program is stored, an extra stop
command is needed to clear the memory. Thus:
· One stop command will stop the disc.
· A second stop command will clear the memory.
· A third stop command will eject the CD.
· One continuous press will accomplish all operations.

Learning TV and Satellite commands
In addition to controlling Cyrus components, the remote control can learn the
commands from two other remote control handsets. These will normally be a TV
and a Satellite or terrestrial TV set-top box, programmed to the TV and SAT
buttons, but could also be other audio components including a Cyrus tuner or
DVD player etc.
All keys may be programmed with the exception of the groups marked CONTROL and
SOURCE and the SETUP key.
Preparation for learning
Check the following points before attempting to learn any commands –
· Check that both remote controls have fresh batteries.
· Choose a location on a tabletop that is not brightly lit. Subdued light is
better, away from bright natural or indoor lighting.
· Check that you have enough time to spare to complete the learning process
for all the keys you want to use.
Learning commands
In this example, the Cyrus remote control will be learning commands from a
`reference’ Satellite receiver remote control.
1. Set the two remote controls up facing each other, spaced by about 5cm.

SETUP
The mode key will change to white. After about three seconds, the mode key
will light red again. This indicates that the remote control is ready to learn
codes.
4. Release the SETUP key.
The remote control is now waiting to learn commands. The keypad will light
continually and the mode key will light pale red.
5. On the reference remote control, press and hold the first key you want to
learn (for example, volume up) until the mode key flashes red.
This indicates that the command has been received.
6. Release the key on the reference remote control.
7. Press a key on the Cyrus remote control (volume up in this example) to
select where you want to save that command.
The mode key will stop flashing. This indicates that the command has been
saved successfully.
If the learning process was successful, the remote control will be ready to
learn the next command.
8. Repeat steps 5 to 7 for each command you want to learn.
When you have completed learning all commands –
· Press the SETUP key.
The mode key will change to white. After a few seconds the backlight will
switch off.
The keypad will light and the key you selected will be red.

Checking programmed commands
· Select the mode that you just programmed and check that the commands were
learned successfully.
NOTE: The TV or SAT mode key should flash red when sending a command. If the
mode key is not flashing, then the command has not learned correctly.
· Make a note of any commands that have not programmed correctly and repeat
the learning process to add these in.
NOTE: When you start the learning process it does not erase any programmed
keys so you can re-program individual keys if required.
Problems with learning
If none of the commands have learned correctly, try restarting the learning
process again. Test a few keys first to ensure that your handset is compatible
for learning. If the test works then continue to program the rest of the
commands you need.
If you still have problems, check carefully that the mode light is flashing
correctly as you send a command to learn. If not, it may be that the batteries
need replacement in the reference handset or that the spacing between the
handsets is not ideal. Try adjusting the spacing between the handsets and
repeating the learning process.
If you continue to have problems, it may be that your handset is incompatible
with the learning process. This could happen with an older design of handset
or one that has an unusual code-set.
