Operating instructions

MESSAGE CENTER DISPLAY-5.
The display in the message center presents many dif-
ferent types of information. As soon as the POWER but-
ton is touched to turn the player on, the message center
shows a series of zeros in TRACK, INDEX and TIME.
The eLAPsed time indicator and the VOLUME bar is
also lighted.
The LOAD touch-button opens and closes the com-
pact disc drawer. Once opened, place a disc in the
drawer label side up. When the LOAD touch-button is
used to close the drawer, the laser pen will read the
contents of the disc from the encoded data. The
message center information will change to show the
number of tracks and the total recorded time on the
disc. The player then goes to 'stand-by' mode until fur-
ther instructed.
The drawer can be closed and play begun by
touching SCAN or PLAY. The message center display
will change to show the track being played and the
eLAPsed time.
TRACK

when activated by the LOAD button. When in other
modes of operation, will display the track being
played. When programming, the word TRACK under
the digits will flash to indicate that TRACK data can
be entered in the memory.
INDEX
When a disc has been encoded with index data the
INDEX area will display the index being played.
When programming, the word INDEX under the
digits will flash to indicate that INDEX data can be
entered in the memory.
MINutes/SEConds
Displays the total disc time when activated by the
LOAD button. When in other modes of operation,
will display the eLAPsed time on the track being

SEConds will flash to indicate that data can be
entered in the memory.

This touch-button changes the display in MINutes
and SEConds from elapsed (LAP) time on this track to
the remaining (REM) time on the disc. A second
touch returns the display to eLAPsed time.
DISC (flashing red)
When flashing indicates the laser pen has moved to
the contents area of the disc and is reading the data
into the digital memory for display. Should the
drawer not contain a disc the DISC indicator will
flash and the ERROR indicator light for a few seconds
then both will turn off.

Should an inaccurate instruction be given the
ERROR indicator will light briefly. New instructions
must be instituted to put the player in action.

to play and repeat a portion of the disc programed
by the A B touch-button. A flashing A B in-
dicator reminds you that the A B programming is

dicator is lighted and the program is displayed in se-
quence on the appropriate TRACK, INDEX, and

loudness of the volume. As volume is increased more
segments are illuminated.

passage in a track by holding in REV or FF

hold FF , the laser pick-up moves toward the end of
the track or disc. By using REV and FF alter-
nately, you can find any part of any passage. After
release, play restarts at once.
