You can start the tape’s program numbers from a value different from 01 by turning the DATA dial. The program number selected with the DATA dial will flash (the flashing will continue for five seconds).

Confirm the flashing program number with the ENTER key. If you press ENTER after the program number has stopped flashing, renumbering will start from 01.

The tape will rewind to the first START ID, and rewrite the ID in the same location as previously, but with the number selected above.

When this is done, the number at the right of the dis- play will change to the number which is one greater than the starting program number, and the tape will move forward to the next START ID and renumber it in the same way.

While a START ID is being rewritten, the word RENUM will flash in the display, and the PLAY and RECORD indicators will light.

If the current START ID already has a number, this will be shown to the left of the # mark on the display:

PNO

0 0H 2 3M 1 7s0 2 # 0 3

If the current START ID is unnumbered, this is repre- sented by a pair of dashes in the PNO location on the display.

All program titles are retained during the renumber- ing process.

The renumbering process continues until the end of the tape or an END ID is reached.

NOTE

Valid program numbers are from 01 to 99. If the above procedure is used to select a pro- gam number at the high end of the range, and the renumbering increments a program num- ber above 99, the number will “wrap” to 00. The number 00 can cause problems when searching and locating, and this should be remembered when setting program numbers.

00H 2 8M 5 3S 2 9 E d i t
