• If only the A point is set, the B point is automatically set at

the end of the track for which the A point is set.

• If only the B point is set, the A point is automatically set at

the beginning of the track for which the B point is set.

If the playing time of the A-B section is shorter than the total of the set fade in and fade out times, the fade in and fade out settings are ignored. When the B point is before the A point, the section from the B point to the A point is played.

• Programs can be stored in the preset memory. When a disc for which a program is preset is loaded, the programmed playback mode is set

automatically.

• Programs can be stored for up to three discs.

PRESET FUNCTIONS AND OPERATIONS

(1) List of Preset Functions

• Functions can be preset using the buttons on the front panel. These presettings are stored in a permanent memory, so they are not cleared even

when the power is turned off.

• The functions shown on the table below can be preset. Set the functions according to the usage purpose to efficiently achieve even higher quality

playback.

• One of the preset functions can be used to display information on this set (microprocessor version).

When presettings are made, the time display set with the TIME button, the play mode set with the PLAY MODE button and the finish mode set with the FINISH MODE button at that time are stored in the memory. These modes will be set when the power is next turned on.

NOTE:

For CDR discs without TOCs, there are no pits (signals) at the disc's lead in and lead out sections, so errors may occur, particularly when searching for tracks. If an error should occur, open the disc holder, then close it and perform the operation again.

(2) Presetting Procedure

• Functions can be preset using the buttons on the front panel.

• Th e presettings can also be set using serial remote signals (RS232C/RS422A1.

• Make the presettings with no disc loaded, in th e stop or standby mode.

• Do not enlarge the hole in the center of the disc.

• Do not write on the label (printed side) with a hard-tipped implement such as a pencil or ball point pen.

• Condensation will form if a disc is brought into a warm area from a colder one, such as outdoors in winter. Do not attempt to dry the disc with a

hair dryer, etc.

(2) Precaution on stora

• After playing a disc, always unload it from the player.

• Always store the disc in the jewel case to protect from dirt or damage.
