NOTES ON THE OPC LIMIT OF CD-R
DISCS

When a non-finalized CD-R is loaded in the record deck,
"OPC" (Optimum Power Control) appears on the
information display. OPC determines the intensity and
duration of the recording laser beam that is best for the
currently loaded disc.

Do not open and close the disc tray
unnecessarily

OPC runs every time a non-finalized CD-R disc is loaded,
and OPC can run only a limited number of times
(approximately 100 times) on a non-finalized CD-R disc.
OPC does not run when loading a finalized CD-R disc or a
prerecorded music CD.

RECORDING

PRECAUTIONS

On recording programmed play

Do not attempt to record a sequence of tracks, as
programmed on your DAT, DCC or other digital sources.
Those tracks would not be numbered continuously. If you
want to record a sequence of tracks, record them one by
one.

About the update process

"UPDATE" is displayed after recording. The update process
writes non-audio data in the PMA (Program Memory Area)
of the disc. When finalizing the disc, TOC (Table Of
Contents) is generated from the PMA data.

When digital input is interrupted during
recording

If incoming digital input from the source device is interrupted
momentarily, such as when the sampling frequency is
changed on the source, a blank segment is recorded. If
there is an interruption longer than 4 seconds, this unit
stops recording and updates the PMA data.

When recording additional tracks

Additional recordings are made in sequence to the end of
the last track on a non-finalized CD-R/RW if there is enough
time remaining on the disc. Up to 99 tracks can be recorded
on a single disc.

Minimum length of recording you can make

The shortest possible length of recording is restricted to 6
seconds. In other words, you cannot terminate recording
before the first 6 seconds are up. During this interval,
pressing

c

or

s

has no effect.

Compressed audio, and video or graphics data

This unit is not capable of recording compressed audio
like DTS and Dolby Digital Surround sounds. Non-audio
data contained in a Graphics CD or HDCD cannot be
recorded on this unit either.

Copy prohibit

Some commercial CD discs may contain a copy protection
data bit that will prevent the disc from being dubbed. In
this case, "COPY PROHIBIT" will light.
