RCD-1520 Stereo Compcat Disc Player
3. To program tracks from the handheld remote control, enter the
first track number using the DIRECT ACCESS
F
buttons. Your
selection will be memorized automatically and the Display
indicator will change to “P:01”, indicating that one track has
been memorized. Continue entering the rest of your selections
using the DIRECT ACCESS buttons. Note that there is no need to
press the PROGRAM button as each selection is memorized as it
is entered.
4. To program tracks from the front panel, select the first track
number using the TRACK
rt
buttons. To memorize additional
tracks, select them with the TRACK buttons, pressing the
PROGRAM button after each selection.
Once you have memorized a play list, the RCD-1520 remains in
PROGRAM mode until you eject the disc or press the STOP button
twice in succession. If you press the PLAY button, the memorized
program will play instead of the entire disc, starting with the first
selection in the memorized list.
When a PROGRAM has been memorized, most functions that would
normally affect the entire disc operate on just the memorized program.
For example, the TRACK buttons advance to the next track in the
memorized program, not the next track on the disc. Likewise, the
REPEAT button (see below) continuously plays the memorized program,
not the entire disc.
Note: The Random Play feature cannot be used when using the
Programmed Play feature.
REVIEW Button
3I
This button is used to review the memorized tracks in Program Play
mode. Press the button and the first memorized track number and
“Prog Review” will appear in the Display. Pressing the REVIEW button
again while the track number is displayed will continue the review
sequence, showing the next memorized track. Continue pressing the
REVIEW button to see the complete memorized track list.
If the REVIEW button is not press again, after 5 seconds the review
process is terminated and the unit resumes whatever mode it was in
before you started the review process or resumes Program Play with
the current track.
You may remove a selection from the Program Play list during the
review procedure using the CLEAR button, as described below.
CLEAR Button
H
(remote only)
This button allows you to remove a track selection from the memorized
program play list during the review procedure described above.
Follow the review procedure until the desired track number appears.
Then, instead of pressing the REVIEW button to continue, remove
the track by pressing the CLEAR button while the track number is
displayed. You may then continue the review procedure.
RANDOM Button
4O
This instructs the CD player to play tracks from the entire disc in
random order. Once all of the selections have been played once, the
disc will stop playing, unless the REPEAT Button (see below) has been
engaged, in which case the random play will continue until the STOP
button is pressed. When the RANDOM button is engaged, the icon
appears in the Display.
REPEAT Button
9B
This button allows you to repeat the current track or the entire disc
continuously until the feature is cancelled by disengaging the REPEAT
button or pressing STOP. The REPEAT button steps sequentially through
the available options. Press the button once and the RCD-1520 will
repeat just the current track. The icon appears in the Display. Press
the button a second time and the RCD-1520 will repeat the entire disc.
A second icon appears in the Display. Press the button a third time
to cancel the REPEAT function.
As noted above, REPEAT can be used in conjunction with the
RANDOM play feature. The REPEAT and RANDOM play combination
can also be used when playing CD-DA discs.
Note: The REPEAT function is automatically cancelled when the disc
is ejected
SCAN Button
0C
This feature automatically plays the first ten seconds of each track on
the disc (or the memorized program). To activate the feature, press the
SCAN button. The icon appears in the Display. To stop scanning and
resume normal operation at the current track, press the SCAN button
again or press the PLAY
/
qE
button.
The RANDOM and INTRO play combination can also be used when
playing CD-DA discs.
TIME Button
-G
Normally, the RCD-1520 displays the elapsed time of the currently
playing track. The TIME button allows you to see alternative time
displays. Pressing the button once displays the time remaining in
the current track, which counts down as the track continues playing.
Pressing the button a second time displays the time remaining on
the entire disc (or memorized program). When the alternative time
displays are selected an “R” icon appears in the display. Pressing the
button a third time reverts to the standard elapsed time display.
Note: When playing MP3 and WMA discs, only the regular elapsed
time and the time remaining in the current track can be displayed.
