The people at Cambridge SoundWorks hope you enjoy
your new high-performance SoundWorks Radio CD 745.
Your new radio has great FM stereo sound and plays
useful AM band stations. It stores 16 FM station presets
along with 8 AM station presets. An integral, slot-load disc
player plays audio CDs and MP3/WMA les on CD-ROM.
The large 32-character display and full-function remote
makes radio operation easy from across the room.
The SoundWorks Radio CD 745 displays three types of
supplementary text:
Radio Data Service (RDS) FM station text
•
CD-text
•
“ID3” text stored in most MP3 and WMA les.
•
An automatic dimmer function reduces display brightness
in dark rooms while maintaining good legibility in bright
light. An internal long-life power cell maintains the current
time accurately for many years. By inserting a 9V battery
(not supplied), a user ensures that an activated wakeup
function will work even during a power outage.
A front input jack allows easy connection of audio program
sources (like portable digital music and cassette players).
A convenient JOG button lets you select from a variety of
secondary adjustments (Bass and Treble, Snooze time
and Text display modes, among others).

Position the AM antenna (4) in any out-of-the-way site,
preferably at least 8 inches apart from the Radio CD.
Insert the AM Antenna’s miniplug into the Radio CD’s rear

The AC cord is also the Radio CD’s primary FM antenna.
It will function better if at least 50% or more of its length
follows a straight line (See C). Check to make sure
the FM antenna switch on the rear panel of the Radio
enclosure is in the INT (internal) position (factory default).
If desired, the external FM antenna can be connected and
used instead of the internal antenna (See D). Connect
the external antenna to the “F”-type connector of the rear
panel. Set the FM antenna switch to EXT (external).

Setting the Clock
You can adjust the current time whether the radio is in
Standby or On.
Just press the TIME ADJUST BUTTONS (next to the symbol)
on the right hand side of the display (see E).
Note: The current time can only be adjusted from the
radio CD faceplate. The remote control can adjust the
wakeup time setting, but not the current time.
Tone Alarm Backup Battery
For 48 hours of alarm function backup during an AC
power failure, obtain and install a 9 volt battery in the
radio’s battery compartment. Release the battery cover,
attach the battery and restore the cover.
If either alarm is set to activate (music or tone wake-up)
and the power fails, the battery sounds the tone alarm
at the appropriate time. Press POWER on the radio to
silence the alarm. Remove the battery if the unit is unplugged for more than 24 hours. Replace the battery after
30 minutes of emergency tone alarm operation (see F).

CD-ROM PLAY
The radio CD recognizes MP3 and WMA compressed audio les stored on a CD-ROM disc. You can create (or “burn”)
your own CD-ROM compilation discs containing much more music than would t on a conventional audio CD. The radio
CD will also recognize folders at the top level of a CD-ROM and display their folder names. Use folders on a CD-ROM
as a convenient way to select between different group of music.
The radio CD recognizes a maximum of 99 tracks in any folder, or at the top level of a disc. The radio CD will not
recognize subfolders. The radio CD will treat MP3 les inside subfolders as being inside the top level folder.
.
Sequence of Play on a CD-ROM
a)
The radio CD will rst recognize any MP3/WMA les stored on the top level of the CD-ROM. It will play those les
“le name” sequence. The radio CD will ignore any les that do not end in “.mp3” or “.wma”.
b)
After the radio CD has played all MP3/WMA les on the top level of the CD-ROM, it will then play the contents of
any folders present on the CD-ROM in “le name” sequence.
c)
If there are no “.mp3” or “.wma” audio les in the top level of the CD-ROM, the radio CD will automatically play the
contents of the rst folder on the CD-ROM (according to the “folder name” sequence).
d)
Once all the contents of the rst folder are played, the radio CD will play the contents of any remaining folders at the
top level of the disc.
e)
The FOLDER + and FOLDER – buttons skip to the next or previous directory in sequence according to the folder
names.
f)
The diagram on page 19 is an example of the automatic play sequence the radio CD follows when playing the
contents of a CD-ROM.

This diagram assumes you are using only “.mp3” les. A CD-ROM containing “.wma” les or a mix of
both “.mp3” and “.wma” les will operate in the same order..
Tips for Preparing an MP3 or WMA CD-ROM
Start the title of each track or folder with a number to designate its sequence. Many CD-ROM recording programs
1)
support the automatic addition of sequence numbers to the start of each MP3/WMA le name.
The radio CD treats numbers as text when determining track and folder sequence. Use a leading zero on single digit
2)
numbers (01, 02, 03..,) if the total of your tracks or folders is ten or greater.
The radio CD supports a maximum of 99 tracks at the top level of a CD or within any folder at the top level of the
3)
CD-ROM.
- 31 -
CD-ROM PLAY (Continued)
Arranging MP3 or WMA Files and Folders on a CD-ROM
Place only folders at the top level of your CD-ROM (no MP3/WMA les). This lets you cycle through the folders
a)
using the FOLDER + and FOLDER – buttons in a similar manner to choosing discs in a multiple CD disc player.
RIP (compress) your favorite tracks from an audio CD into a folder on your computer hard drive. Make sure the
b)
track titles start with numbers according to your desired track sequence.
Repeat the procedure for other groups of compressed audio les you wish to store on the same CD-ROM, saving
c)
the les in separate folders on your hard drive.
Use folder titles with a number at the start, in a sequence of your choice.
d)
“Burn” all the folders onto a CD-ROM at once.
e)
Once completed, you could have a CD-ROM with much more music than a conventional audio CD. You can
f)
navigate through each folder simply by pressing the FOLDER + and FOLDER – buttons.
CD-ROM Preparation:
Maximum number of individual MP3/WMA les supported on a CD-ROM: 295 les
If the total number of MP3/WMA les on the CD-ROM exceeds 295, the folder name display, folder play sequence and
MP3/WMA le play sequence will be unpredictable.
Maximum folders supported on a CD-ROM: 29 folders.
Multi-session CD-ROM: The SoundWorks Radio CD will recognize just the rst session of a CD-ROM. Burn complete
CD-ROMs for use with the SoundWorks Radio CD.
