Introduction
Thank you for buying this HHB Professional product.
The UDP-89 Universal DVD/CD Player is designed to play most
variants of CD and DVD digital discs in common professional
use, and to provide high-quality audio and/or video playback
from the various encoding methods and file types currently in
use with CDs and DVDs.
We recommend that you read this instruction manual at least
as far as the Basic Operation section, to familiarise yourself with
the unit’s layout, controls and operating system. The Additional
Features section can then be referred to separately when the
need arises, such as playing the less common CD and DVD
variants and using the remote control functions.
Please keep this manual in a safe place once you are sufficiently
familiar with the UDP-89 to use it without referral. You will
probably need it in the future, such is the UDP-89’s versatility.
Important — Please register your UDP-89 with HHB
Communications on-line at http://www.hhb.co.uk Registering
your machine will help us in providing you with after-sales service
should the need arise, and may also be of assistance in the
event of the unit being stolen.
Environment — The UDP-89’s range of operating temperature
and relative humidity (RH) are as follows:
Temperature: +5oC to +35oC (41oF to 95oF)
RH: less than 85%
Do not use the UDP-89 in a location where it is in direct sunlight
or strong artificial light.
What’s in the box
Unpacking
Unpack the UDP-89 and its accessories with care. It is always
a good idea to store all packaging (if practical), in case you ever
need to return the unit to your HHB dealer for any reason.
The shipping carton should contain the items listed below.
Please contact your HHB dealer immediately if any of them are
missing or damaged.

Cautions and guidance on
installation
Safety Guidelines
Operate only on a secure and level surface or securely•
fastened into a rack, noting the precautions below.
This equipment must be earthed (grounded).•
This equipment must be powered from a polarised AC•
supply.
Only suitably trained personnel should service this•
equipment.
Please read and take note of all warning and informative•
labels.
Before starting any servicing operation, this equipment•
must be isolated from the AC supply (mains) by removing
the incoming IEC mains connector.
Fuses should only be replaced with ones of the same type•
and rating as that indicated.
Operate only in a clean, dry and pollutant-free environment.•
Do not operate in an explosive atmosphere.•
Do not allow any liquid or solid objects to enter the•
equipment. Should this accidentally occur then immediately
switch off the unit and contact your service agent.
Installation
Although the UDP-89 does not generate a significant degree
of heat, it should never be installed immediately above or
below another piece of equipment that does, such as a power
amplifier. It is good practice in any case to fit vent blanks of at
least 1U above and below such equipment in a rack (unless they
short-circuit that equipments’ own fan-cooling, in which case
plain blanks should be fitted).
Care with ventilation should similarly be taken if the unit is free-
standing; never stack it on top of or underneath another piece of
equipment which generates a significant amount of heat.
Take care when routing cables around the unit; never drape
cables across the front panel of the UDP-89 as they may
obstruct the disc tray eject mechanism.
Do not install or use the UDP-89 in a position where it is in
direct sunlight or high-intensity artificial light. Never attempt to
move the unit while it is in operation.

Introduction
8UDP-89 User Manual Version 2.1www.hhb.co.uk
Care & cleaning
Always switch off and disconnect the unit from the mains before
cleaning. The outside surfaces of the unit may be cleaned with a
soft dry cloth. For stubborn marks (such as from liquid spillage),
a soft damp cloth may be used in conjunction with a mild
detergent solution (dilute a household detergent cleaner 5:1 with
water). Wipe thoroughly dry with a dry cloth after. NEVER use
solvent cleaners of any kind.
Always switch the unit off and disconnect it from the AC supply
before moving it. NEVER move the unit while it is in use, as this
may permanently damage the disc.
CDs and DVDs should ALWAYS be handled with care. Hold
discs only by the edge or the centre hole. Never put discs “face
down” on any surface as they can scratch easily. Smudges
and fingerprints may be removed from a disc’s playing surface
by wiping it gently with a soft, lint-free cloth “across” the disc
radius. Never rub circumferentially. Stubborn marks can be
removed by applying a small amount of isopropyl alcohol (distilled
water is often as effective), again with a soft, lint-free cloth.
Alternatively, use a commercially available CD cleaning kit.
NEVER use solvent cleaners of any kind.
Installing the Remote Control batteries
To insert the batteries in the infra-red remote control handset:
Slide off the battery compartment lid on the rear of the•
handset
Insert two AAA batteries, taking care to orientate them•
the correct way (refer to markings within the battery
compartment)
Slide battery compartment lid back on•
Important! Please observe the following guidelines when
replacing batteries:
Always change both batteries at the same time.•
Always use two batteries of the same brand and type.•
Dispose of the old batteries in a responsible manner –•
always observe local environmental guidelines.

Introduction

UDP-89 User Manual Version 2.1 www.hhb.co.uk
Using the RC-89 Remote Control
handset
Make sure there are no obstacles between the handset•
and the unit.
The handset should work reliably within 7m of the unit, and•
within 30° of the direct line between the handset and the
unit.
Strong sunlight or fluorescent lighting may make remote•
control operation less reliable.
Remote control handsets for different equipment•
sometimes interact. If the UDP-89 is installed adjacent
to other infra-red-controlled equipment, you should satisfy
yourself that the UDP-89’s handset is not affecting the
other equipment, or vice-versa. One or more items may
need to be moved if interaction is observed.
A falling-off of the operating range of the handset will•
generally indicate that it is time to change the batteries.
Compatible disc types
The UDP-89 supports the following types of media: CD, CD-R,
CD-RW, DVD-V, DVD-A, DVD+R, DVD+RW, DVD-R, DVD-RW,
SACD.
Compatible audio and video formats
Numerous encoding schemes for both audio and video data have
been implemented since the initial introduction of the CD and
DVD media formats. Most - but not all - schemes are defined
for one particular type of media. The number of combination
of media types and encoding schemes is now quite large, and
it is a fundamental purpose of the UDP-89 to replay audio
and/or video from as many of the disc types currently in use as
possible.
The UDP-89 is able to replay the following disc types:
Standard red-book-compliant• audio CDs
Standard DVD• video discs (DVD-V) including decoding of
Dolby Digital, DTS and MPEG audio bitstreams, or PCM
audio up to 24-bit at fs=96 kHz
Scarlet book 2.0-compliant• Super Audio CDs (SACD),
including single, dual and hybrid layer versions
DVD-Audio• discs (DVD-A) containing audio in various
formats, including 16-bit stereo at fs=44.1 or 48 kHz,
24-bit 6-channel at fs=88.2 or 96 kHz, and 24-bit stereo
at fs=176.4 or 192 kHz
White book-compliant• Video CDs (VCD) containing MPEG1
video with MPEG Layer 2 stereo audio at fs=44.1 kHz
Super Video CDs• (SVCD) containing MPEG2 video with
either one or two MPEG Layer 2 stereo audio tracks at
fs=44.1 kHz, or MPEG2 5.1 audio
CD-R/RW and DVD-R/RW discs containing audio and/or•
video files recorded with the following schemes
MPEG1andMPEG2filescontainingbothaudioand•
video objects
MPEG4ASP-codedvideofiles(e.g.*.avifiles)•
containing embedded MPEG, Dolby Digital or PCM
audio
*.jpgpicturefiles•
More detailed descriptions of the various disc types will be found
throughout the manual.
