4. Time button
Indicates the time mode that is used on the front panel display.
Multiple presses of the Time button scrolls through the four
time-mode options, using the Time on Disc and Time Remaining
LEDs to indicate which mode is selected at any point. Refer to the
“Front Panel Display” section found previously in this manual for
more details about the Time Indicator option.
5. Volume buttons

variable volume mode is active. Press the Up () button to increase
the volume level, or press the Down () button to lower the
volume level.
6. SACD/CD button
Allows you to select different layers on a SACD disc. When a SACD
disc is first loaded, the Nº512 automatically selects the two-channel
SACD layer.
If the SACD disc is a hybrid with alternate layers, multiple presses of
the SACD/CD button scrolls through the multichannel SACD, the
2-channel SACD, and the CD layers. If a multichannel layer is
selected, it is downmixed to a 2-channel output.
Note When playing a SACD disc, the SACD layer is only available on the
analog audio outputs. However, the CD layer may be played normally
using digital or analog outputs.
The SACD LED under the front panel display lights when a SACD
disc is loaded into the player. If the CD layer is selected on the disc,
then the SACD LED is not lit.
Once playback of the SACD disc has started, the SACD/CD button
becomes inactive. Only when the player is in Stop mode can the
different layers of the SACD disc be accessed.
Note If a normal CD is loaded in the player, then this button is inactive and
has no function.
7. Clear button
Removes the last track entry from a program. This button only
functions when Program mode is active.
