VARIABLE OUTPUT VERSION.
If your player was specified as a variable type then
you will find a label “VAR”‚ next to the serial no.
There is no readout or display of the volume however
it will remember where you last left it, even if you
power the player off. So in answer to the question;
How do I know how loud it is? It is where you last left
it! The mute function on the handset will also mute
the players output completely, push the button for a
second time and output will be restored. There is
enough gain to drive any power amplifier into clip-
ping however the factory default setting is quite low,
as we do not know what amp and speakers you
may have and we do not want you to leap out of
your skin when you first play a disk. The volume
control operates in the analogue domain so you are
not reducing the bit count or resolution, it is a micro
processor controlled resistor ladder and has only a
very subtle effect on sound quality like any volume
control.
OPERATING YOUR CD PLAYER
You can control the major functions of your CD
player from either the remote control handset or the
buttons on the player’s facia. If you simply wish to
play a disc you do not need the remote control.
However, do not lose the handset because it is
required when you wish to program the player or use
features such as FF or FR.
PLAYER CONTROLS
OPEN: Push once to close the player’s drawer after
inserting a disc. Do not push the drawer closed with
your hand as this can damage the drawer
mechanism.
PLAY/PAUSE: Push once to start the disc playing. If
the player’s drawer is open, pushing play will cause it
to close and commence playing automatically.
Pressing for a second time whilst playing a disc will
pause the disc.
REPEAT: Push once to repeat the whole disc. Push
twice to repeat the track currently playing. Pressing
the button a third time returns normal operation.
STOP: Push once to stop the player operating.
PREVIOUS: Push during Play mode to play the
previous track. Pushing more than once will cause
the player to go back an equivalent number of
tracks.
NEXT: Push during Play mode to play the next track.
Pushing more than once will cause the player to
advance an equivalent number of tracks.
TIME: Push once during Play mode to display the
time remaining on the current track. Push again to
display the time remaining on the disc. Push while
the player is in Stop mode to display the total
number of tracks and playing time of the disc.
Note: if the disc contains more than 69 tracks the
display will show “_ _ . _ _” instead of the remaining
time. It will show the same if the remaining time
exceeds 100 minutes during PROGRAM PLAY
mode.
DISPLAY: Push once to turn off the display. Push
again to return the display to full brightness.
Note: When the display is switched off, pushing any
control on the player or remote handset, or changing
the disc, will switch on the display for about 3
seconds. Please note that this function only works if
a disc is present in the player and playing.
REMOTE CONTROL FUNCTIONS
As well as duplicating the major controls found on
the player, the remote handset provides the following
additional features.
PROGRAM: push to construct a program
containing up to twenty-four selected tracks. The
player will play your selections in the order in which
you enter them into the program.
1. Select a track number by pressing the PREVIOUS
or NEXT key, or by using the numerical keys.
2. Press PROGRAM. “PROGRAM” appears on the
display panel indicating Program Play mode. This
is quite dull.
3. To add further tracks repeat steps 1 and 2.
Once you have entered all the desired tracks, you
can play your programme by pressing the PLAY
button
To erase a programmed track, press the CLEAR key.
Each time you press CLEAR, the last selection in the
program will be removed. Press STOP to stop the
program playing, then press STOP again.
FAST FORWARD and REWIND: To move rapidly to
a particular section of music you can use the FAST
FORWARD or REWIND keys, depending, obviously,
upon whether you wish to access a section not yet
reached or one that you have passed. While the
player is in Play mode you will hear music playing at
high speed. To move quickly through the disc in
silence, press PAUSE before pushing the FF or REW
buttons.
NUMERIC KEYS: These are used for entering
selections in Program mode or for starting Play
mode from a particular track. For example, loading a
disc and then pressing “7” will cause the player to
start playing the disc beginning at track 7. To access
tracks greater than 9, first press “0” followed by the
track number required.
