CONNECTING DIGITAL AUDIO
If you have an external surround sound decoder, receiver or D-A 
converter that you wish to use with the DVD player, then you will 
need to connect it using either a coax or optical lead. These digital 
outputs provide 2-channel PCM, Dolby Digital, DTS or MPEG multi-
channel audio, depending on the source material. It is also possible to 
set the digital output to always output 2-channel PCM (stereo mix-
down) using the setup menu. 
If possible, use the coax connection as this may offer slightly better 
performance. Connect the coax output of the DVD player to the 
digital audio coax input of the decoder/D-A converter or receiver 
using a phono cable designed for digital audio interconnection.
Alternatively, connect the optical output of the DVD player to the 
optical input of the decoder/D-A converter or receiver using a 
TOSLINK optical lead.
CONNECTING ANALOGUE AUDIO
If an external decoder is not available then the DVD player’s analogue 
audio outputs will need to be used. You may also wish to use the 
analogue outputs when listening to CDs, to take advantage of the 
DVD player’s high quality D-A converters.
Two pairs of identical outputs are provided. Connect one of these to 
your amplifier’s input using a suitable pair of interconnect cables.
The second set of audio outputs can be used to connect to a second 
amplifier setup for ‘multi-room’ use or routed to a tape recorder for 
making recordings.
REMOTE CONTROL INPUT
The 
REMOTE IN
 input can be used to pass RC5 code to the DV27 if it 
is installed in a position (or system) where infrared cannot be used.
CONNECTING TO A  POWER  SUPPLY
WRONG PLUG?
Check that the plug supplied with the unit fits your supply and that 
your mains supply voltage agrees with the voltage setting (115V or 
230V) indicated on the rear panel of the unit.
If your mains supply voltage or mains plug is different, consult 
your Arcam dealer or Arcam Customer Support on 
+44 (0)1223 203203.
MAINS LEAD
The appliance is normally supplied with a moulded mains plug already 
fitted to the lead. If for any reason the plug needs to be removed, it 
must be disposed of immediately and securely, as it is a potential shock 
hazard when inserted into the mains socket. Should you require a new 
mains lead, contact your Arcam dealer.
PLUGGING IN
Push the plug (IEC line socket) of the power cable supplied with the 
unit into the socket (
POWER INLET
) in the back of the unit. Make sure 
it is pushed in firmly.
Put the plug on the other end of the cable into your power supply 
socket and switch the socket on.
