Important Facts about Silent Mode
• When first started, the Plextor PX-712 drive is set with Silent Mode
off.
• When Silent Mode is active, the drive’s maximum speed is always
restricted. Any speed settings specified by other applications will be
overridden.
• When saved into the drive’s flash memory, Silent Mode remains
active even if you power down the computer or the drive. To clear
Silent Mode settings, select the Reset Values button.
• If SpeedRead is enabled with Silent Mode on, default read speed is
40X speed maximum.
• If you are playing a digital audio (CD-DA) disc using an application
such as Windows Media Player, playback is at 4X CLV, no matter
the Silent Mode setting.
• During DVD-video playback of CSS discs, playback is automatically
slowed down for quieter video playback. (This is different from the
control you have with Silent Mode.) To enable SpeedRead for DVD-
Video discs with CSS, press the eject button for 3 seconds. (For
more details, see page 49.)
