Auto Play Function; Auto Return Function - Fostex D2424LVmk2 Reference Manual

The Auto Play function allows the recorder to start play back automatically from the located point.
AUTO PLAY mode should be turned on before you execute the Direct Locate function described
above.
<Notes>
• This function is effective within 24 ABS hours. Therefore, if playback continues over the recording end point,
the recorder will still continue counting the time. Also, when the recorder locates ABS REC END, it will continue
counting the time from the recording end point. (However, the unit does not access the disk after reaching the
recording end point.)
• If the " Chain Play? " menu in the SETUP mode is set other than " Off ," ON/OFF of AUTO PLAY cannot be executed.
