FRONT PANEL

Display windows
Left display
This display shows all "transport" functions of the player such as track info, playing time,
repeat selections and CD-Text info (if present on the disc).
Right display
This display shows all DAC and output stage functions and settings of the player.
It shows What (digital) input is selected: CD, BNC, Toslink, Balanced (Where CD stands
for the built in transport (default usage))
It also shows volume control setting if the volume control is activated.
This window also shows all other settings made by pressing DISP/EDIT on the remote
control.
Both these displays can be dimmed (i.e. shut off) by pressing the Dim/Display button on
the remote control. In this setting the display will light briefly when any setting or control is
used.
Controls, Left to right
1. STOP/DRAWER
Press and hold this button to open the disc drawer, and press it again to close the
drawer. If this button is pressed briefly once while a disc is being played, the playback will
stop and the pickup will re-set to the beginning of the disc. To open the drawer, press
and hold the button.
When the disc drawer is open, the drawer-closing mechanism can also be activated by
pressing PLAY/PAUSE.
CAUTION: DO NOT try to close the drawer by pushing it in by hand, regardless if the
player is ON or switched OFF. The disc drawer is opened and closed by an internal motor,
which may be damaged if forced.
When the drawer closes, the player scans the disc's "table of contents" and displays the
number of tracks and total playing time on the disc. If you press PLAY/PAUSE to close
the drawer, this display is skipped, and play commences immediately at Track 1.
If the CD is recorded with "CD-TEXT" information, the title of the album and the artist
name will be displayed.
2. SKIP Back 9 and SCAN Back button
These functions are combined in one SKIP/SCAN Back button. One press skips back to
the beginning of the track. Press 9twice to skip back to the previous track and so on. If
you try to SKIP Back past the first track on the disc, the first track will be played.
The SCAN Back function is activated by pressing the same button, but keeping it
depressed for more than 1 second. This causes the laser to scan backwards
continuously, first slowly, after a few seconds rapidly, until the button is released. This
button works in PLAY, PAUSE or STOP mode. After loading a new disc, you must press
PLAY/PAUSE before the scan circuit will work.
If the scan is initiated while the player is in PAUSE, the scan is silent. If the scan is
initiated during PLAY, the music will be heard in fragmentary form at reduced volume as
the player scans through it. Use this "audible scan" to cue the player precisely to the spot
where you want to resume play.
If you scan back to the beginning of the disc while playing Track 1, the player stops
scanning and resumes PLAY or PAUSE when you let go of the button.
