This set is designed with 20 second ESP (Electronic Shock Protection) PLUS
TM
- which
allows virtually unlimited gentle skip protection, and 20 second normal shock protection.
Press the ESP button to turn on the ESP PLUS
TM
system. Press
it again to turn it off.
When the ESP button is pressed during play, the (memory
basket) indicator will appear in the display, the digital data
equivalent to approximately 20 seconds of music is stored in the
read-ahead memory buffer before it is decoded and played.
The mark changes to the mark, indicating that the
memory buffer (basket) is full.
When the set is subject to a shock or a bump during play, the
data stored in memory continues to be decoded and played.
This gives the pickup time to stabilize and continue reading
new music. As the data is used from memory, the indicator
changes from to . Once the pickup returns to its
original position, new data is stored in memory and the display
changes back to the mark.
If the set is subject to repeated shocks and all the data stored
in memory is used up, the mark is displayed and the
sound will skip or stop for a brief period until the memory basket
has time to fill up again.
To turn off the 20 second ESP PLUS
TM
function, press the ESP
button again.
Keep the digital ESP function off when using the set in a stable,
no vibration area, where it will not receive shocks. The batteries
will last longer when the ESP function is off.
The ESP PLUS
TM
function prevents the sound from skipping by using a buffer memory
that stores music data. The new ESP PLUS
TM
system can store more music than
normal anti-skip systems.
