5D Programming
You can set up and store a program to determine what parts of
a disc are to be piayed and in what order. Your program can
contain any combination of:
-track numbers
-index numbers
- start and stop times within a track
However, you are limited to 20 ’memory blocks’. Each track
number takes up 1 block, each index number takes up 2 blocks
and each time position takes up 5 blocks. If you try to use more
than 20 blocks, ’ERROR’ appears on the display.
Before setting up a program, insert the disc and close the
disc-tray.
If you make a mistake, provided that you have not yet pressed
STORE, you can press CLEAR button @ at any time and start
again.
Storing a track number
1. Enter the required track number, using the 0 - 9 digit buttons
- ’TRACK’ flashes on the display.
-The track number is shown on the display.
2. Press STORE button
- ’PROGRAM’ appears on the display.
-The track number is now memorized.
3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 for each track number you want to store.
-The number of tracks and playing time of your program are
shown on the display.
If ’ERROR’ appears on the display :
Does the selected track number exist?
Are all 20 memory blocks full?
Storing an index number
1. Enter the required track number.
2. Press SELECT button (i|).
- ’INDEX’ flashes on the display.
3. Enter the required index number.
-The index number is shown on the display.
4. Press STORE button (g).
-’PROGRAM’appears on the display.
-The index number is now stored.
In this case, since the playing time of index numbers is not
included in the table of contents recorded on the compact disc,
the time is not added to the total playing time of the stored
program. The remaining time indication will therefore not be
accurate.
5. Repeat steps 1-4 for each index number you want to store.
Storing a specific playing time for a track
1. Enter the required track number.
2. Press SELECT button (j|) twice.
-’MIN’ flashes on the display.
3. Enter the minutes of the start time.
4. Press SELECT button ® again.
- ’SEC’ flashes on the display.
5. Enter the seconds of the start time.
6. Press STORE button @.
-The start time is stored.
- ’MIN’ flashes again.
7. Enter the minutes of the stop time.
8. Press SELECT button (g) once more.
- ’SEC’ flashes again.
9. Enter the seconds of the stop time.
10. Press STORE button @.
-The stop time is stored.
11. Repeat steps 1-10 for each playing time you want to store.
Storing track numbers using SCAN
This method of programming only applies if you want to store
track numbers in the same order as they appear on the disc.
1. Press SCAN button @.
- ’SCAN’ appears on the display.
-The first 10 seconds of each track are played in turn.
-The track number indicates the track being played.
2. Whenever a track which you want to store is played, press
STORE button @.
-’PROGRAM’ appears on the display.
-The track number is stored.
-The player immediately starts to scan the next track.
3. Repeat step 2 for each track you want to program.
Reviewing a program
Press REVIEW button @.
- ’REVIEW’ appears on the display.
-Details of the selection are displayed in the programmed
sequence.
If ’ERROR’ appears on the display:
The memory is empty and nothing is stored.
You can review a program prior to or during programmed play.
Erasing a track number, index number or time sequence from
a program
1. Press REVIEW button
- Each item is displayed in the programmed sequence.
2. Press CLEAR button @ at the moment the track number
appears which you want to erase.
Programmed play
1. Set PLAY MCDE switch @ to ’NCRM PLAY’.
2. Press PLAY/REPLAY button ©.
- Play begins with the first item of your program.
If you press PLAY/REPLAY button again, play returns to the first
item of the program.
ether controls remain operative but now obey the sequence of
your program rather than the order on the disc. Search (forwards
or backwards) is limited to the track being played.
You can repeat the program by pressing REPEAT.
The program remains stored until you press STCP/CM, CPEN/
CLCSE or switch the player off.
Returning to the start of the current item of the program
Press PLAY/REPLAY button ®.
- Play stops for a moment then restarts at the beginning of that
item of the program.
To erase the program
Press STCP/CM button @.
-The program is erased.
5E Favourite Track Selection (FTS)
To make a program of selected tracks permanent, so that you can
use it each time you play a particular disc, you can store it in FTS
memory.
The player has enough FTS memory for an absolute maximum of
226 discs. However, the number of FTS programs that can be
stored depends on the number of memory blocks taken up. For
example, if you store 5 tracks per disc, programs for 157 different
discs may be stored.
Cnee stored, you can recall an FTS program for a disc whenever
you want to play your previously programmed selection. However,
you need not use the FTS program each time you play a disc; you
can equally set up a newtemporary program as in Section 5D. The
brief flashing of ’FTS’ after the disc is loaded reminds you,
however, that it has an FTS programme.
Cnly one program, with a maximum of 20 memory blocks, is
allowed per disc. If you try storing two (or more) FTS programs
for a disc, the earlier one is deleted and the most recent one will
be used. The new program is given the same FTS ranking number.
