Since the CD-200 is a dual CD player, most of the functions and con-
trols are duplicated on both sides of the CD player. To eliminate confu-
sion and to make the drawings easier to understand, we will only num-
ber the right side functions and controls.
Model CD-200 is a dual voltage unit. It will operate at 115 or 230 volts.
To set the proper voltage, follow these steps:
1. Before plugging this unit into any outlet, make sure that the VOLTAGE
SELECTION SWITCH (1) is set to the proper voltage. To change the
selection, unscrew the hard plastic protective top with a Phillips head
screw driver. Then use a flat head screw driver to move the switch to the
proper selection (115V/230V).
2. Slide the switch to 115 or 230 volts.
3. Do not force or twist the switch. Excessive force may cause damage.
If the switch does not move smoothly, contact a qualified technician.
1. Using the included cables, plug one end into the REMOTE CONTROL
(4) connector on side 1 and the other end into the MAIN UNIT (4) con-
nector also on side 1. Do the same for side 2.
2. Plug one end of a set of the included RCA cable connectors into each
of the LINE OUTPUT JACKS (3) on the left and right of the main unit's
rear panel.
3. Plug the other end of the RCA connectors into any available line level
input jacks on your mixer. If you are connecting the CD-200 through a
receiver, you can plug the RCA connectors into the CD or AUX INPUT
JACKS on your receiver. If there are no CD or AUX INPUTS, use any
line level (not phono) inputs.
1. POWER: After making sure that the VOLTAGE SELECTOR SWITCH
(1), found on the rear panel of the main unit, is properly set, plug the
CD-200 POWER CORD (2) in and press the
POWER (5) button. The
unit will turn ON. Pushing the POWER button (5) a second time will turn
the unit OFF.
2. DISC TRAY: The DISC TRAY (7) is where the CD is held during load-
ing, unloading and playback. Pressing the OPEN/CLOSE (6) button, will
open or close the tray. The DISC TRAY (7) holds both 12 cm and 8 cm
CDs. Please note, if the CD-200 is in play mode, the tray will not open.
NOTE: DO NOT FORCE THE DISC TRAY TO CLOSE, EXCESSIVE FORCE WILL DAMAGE
THE CD-MECHANISM, USE THE OPEN/CLOSE (6) BUTTONS ONLY.
3. OPEN/CLOSE BUTTON: Press OPEN/CLOSE (6) to load or
remove a CD from the DISC TRAY.
4. DISPLAY: The DISPLAY (11) shows the track number, pitch value,
pitch bend, single, continue (for continuous play), play/pause modes,
fast forward/reverse modes, loop mode, reloop mode, PGM, repeat
modes, the playback display bar, and 3 different time displays. These
time displays are time elapsed on the track, time remaining on the disc
and time remaining on the track. Time is measured in minutes, seconds
and frames.
The PLAYBACK DISPLAY BAR, located at the top of the DISPLAY
(11), displays the elapsed and remaining time for each track at the very
top of the display. The display flashes slowly when the track has 15 sec-
onds remaining and pulses rapidly when playing time is down to 5 sec-
onds.
5. PLAY/PAUSE: Each press of the PLAY/PAUSE BUTTON (20)
causes the operation to change from PLAY to PAUSE or from PAUSE
back to PLAY. The green PLAY/PAUSE LED remains lit when in PLAY
mode, while it blinks in PAUSE mode.
6. STOP: Use the STOP (9) button to end play. This button will also
erase any CUE and LOOP settings.
7. CUE: While the unit is playing and after the cue point has been pro-
grammed, pressing CUE (21) will cause the CD player to enter the
PAUSE mode (green PLAY/PAUSE LED blinks) at the programmed cue
point (the CUE LED glows blue). Holding down the CUE (21) button
changes the function to preview and starts the CD from the programmed
CUE point. Releasing the CUE (21) button will return the CD laser to the
preset CUE (21) point.
8. TRACK SELECTION: The TRACK SELECTION (17)
buttons let you select the track to play. +10 allows you to scan through
the track selection in increments of 10. TRACK SKIP allows you to scan
through each track one at a time.
9. SEARCH JOG WHEEL: The CD-200 features an inner and outer jog
wheel that has multiple functions. Use the outer SEARCH JOG WHEEL
(8a) to select the scanning direction and speed of your CD. Slightly
angling the wheel in a clockwise direction scans forward. While a count-
er-clockwise angle scans the track in reverse. Scanning speed increas-
es as the wheel angle increases. Use the inner SEARCH DIAL WHEEL
(8) for frame accurate searching through a track in pause mode, or as a
manual pitch bend in play mode, for precise synchronization.
10. SINGLE: Pressing SINGLE (14) activates the SINGLE function. The
SINGLE function causes the unit to play one song and then stop.
Pressing the SINGLE (14) button a second time activates the CONTIN-
UOUS function causing the unit to play continuously (after the last track,
the unit will return to the first track of the disc and continue to play).
Pressing the SINGLE (14) button a third time returns to the SINGLE
function.
11. TIME: The TIME BUTTON (13) switches the time display between
the three available choices listed under the DISPLAY (11).
12. LOOP SECTION: When programming a LOOP (19) into your loop-
ing program, pressing A (green LED will light up) while the unit is play-
ing repeats the section between the entry point and the exit point where
the B (green LED will light up) button was pressed. Press B
