Curiosity - CD5/Hicap to 82 connection

Posted by: Beer Monster on 02 November 2015

Looking at the connections guide, the Hicap is to power the CD5 and in turn the signal goes from CD5 to the 82.  Is there a reason why this is so, as opposed to the Hicap sending the signal to 82?

It's because the CD5 is a CD player and the Hicap simply provides it with power. No signal is provided by the player to the Hicap.
