CHANGING THE ANTI-SHOCK BUFFER
MEMORY SETTING
1. Before changing the ANTI-SHOCK setting, you must first press the
STOP (16) button or turn the unit’s POWER (4) off.
2. You may then move the ANTI-SHOCK (1) switch to the right position
for 40 seconds of Anti-Shock Buffer Memory or the left position for 10
seconds of Anti-Shock Buffer Memory.
Note: The ANTI-SHOCK (1) switch must be set to 10
seconds when you use the BNC (2) output connector for
digital output. If you are not using the BNC (2) output
connector for digital output, we recommend keeping the
ANTI-SHOCK (1) switch set to 40 seconds for maximum
anti-shock protection.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Make sure that the VOLTAGE SELECTOR (5) switch, found on the
rear panel, is set for the proper voltage. Plug the unit in and press the
POWER (4) switch.
2. Press the OPEN (22) button, place a CD in the DISC TRAY (15) and
close the tray door.
3. Push the TRACK SKIP (10) buttons to select the track you want to
play.
4. Press the PLAY/PAUSE (13) button and the unit will instantly play.
CUE INSTRUCTIONS
1. To memorize the spot at which you want play to start, the CUE POINT,
select the proper track, and then push the PLAY/PAUSE (13) button
so the unit goes into play mode (the play/pause LED will glow). Listen
to the CD and when the CD gets to the approximate spot, push the
PLAY/PAUSE (13) button so the unit goes into pause mode (the play/
pause LED will blink). Move the SEARCH
JOG WHEEL (14) or use
the SEARCH BUTTONS (11) to find the precise spot you want play to
begin, and push the PLAY/PAUSE (13) to memorize the cue point.
Press the CUE (12) button to return to the memorized cue point. Push
the PLAY/PAUSE (13) button, and the unit will instantly play from the
spot selected.
AND/OR
To use the SET CUE (9) button and the DIRECT ACCESS (6) buttons to
set a cue point, follow these instructions:
1. Press the SET CUE (9) button (the set cue LED will light). Use the
DIRECT ACCESS (6) buttons to memorize the spot at which you want
play to start, the CUE POINT, by selecting the proper track, minute,
second and frame. Push the CUE (12) button to set the cue. You can
do this in any mode, including PLAY MODE, so that you may cue a
track while playing a track. Press the CUE (12) button again to return
to the memorized cue point.
SUGGESTION: To avoid confusion while setting cue points,
keep the time display in ELAPSED TIME mode. When you
use the DIRECT ACCESS BUTTONS to set a cue, the
track, minute, second and frame are always in elapsed
time. If the units time display is in TRACK REMAIN or
TOTAL REMAIN mode, the track, minute, second and
frame displayed will be the remain time and not the
track, minute, second and frame you entered.
2. To fine tune a cue point, pause play at the memorized cue point (the
cue LED will glow and the play/pause LED will blink), then use the
SEARCH
JOG WHEEL (14) or SEARCH BUTTONS (11) to scan
frame by frame (1/75th of a second) to where you want play to begin
(the cue LED will blink while you scan). Press the PLAY/PAUSE (13)
button to save the new cue point.
Note: During fine tuning there will be a stutter effect (to
help you find the beat). The stuttering effect will end
when you press the PLAY/PAUSE (13) button to save the
cue point. Also, during fine tuning if you hold down the
SEARCH BUTTONS (11), the unit will scan quickly after
10 frames.
TROUBLE SHOOTING
If the disk will not play, check to see if the disc was loaded correctly
(label side up). Also check the disc for excessive dirt, scratches, etc.
If the disc turns but there is no sound, check the cable connections. If
they are okay, check your amplifier or receiver.
If the CD skips, check the CD for dirt or scratches. Do not assume
that the CD player is defective. Many CDs are recorded out of spec
and will skip on most or all CD players. Before sending the unit in for
repair, try playing a CD that you are sure plays properly.
