Setting Up Enhanced Autoplay Schedules (Commands 48 and 49)
Enhanced Autoplay provides up to 20 events each day of the week for a total of 140 events per week. Before you
begin entering specifics for these events, some preliminary work must be done. If you take the time to do this work
now, you will find that planning, entering, and changing the Autoplay schedule will be much easier.
The five major tasks to perform are:
1. Assigning a category number or numbers to each disc installed in the phonograph using the Disc Category List
worksheet as shown in Figure 2-12. Use the Worksheet Masters at the end of this section for the actual
masters.
2. Entering the disc category list into the phonograph.
3. Developing the Autoplay Event Schedule using the Autoplay Event Schedule Worksheet.
4. Entering the Autoplay Event Schedule into the phonograph.
5. Copy a schedule to the other days of the week.
FOLLOW STEPS 1 THROUGH 5 TO SET UP AN ENHANCED AUTOPLAY SCHEDULE
1. Set Up the Categories
Categories should be assigned if you want to take full advantage of Enhanced Autoplay’s ability to select specific
kinds of music.
Autoplay sees the eight categories as Category 1 through 8 (all 100 discs are assigned to Category 1 at the factory).
To make setting up Autoplay easier, you should assign names to each category. We have supplied a general purpose
form to help you assign category numbers and discs. A general purpose category assignment would look like Figure
2-12.
Once you have decided what title to use for each category (you do not have to assign a name for each category if
you do not have eight categories), you should determine the category (or categories) for each disc. Figure 2-12
also shows a sample category list for a phonograph with 50 discs. Note that some discs fit into more than one
category. This means that Autoplay can select these discs if any one of the categories is scheduled. You can assign
a disc to all eight categories, but depending on the category titles, some category titles may exclude each other (it’s
not likely that a Country & Western disc would be assigned to Urban as well).
You can enter the categories as you look at the title pages on a CD-100K Phonograph.
Photocopy the Disc Category List at the back of this section and use the copy for a work sheet.
