CPS (Computomatic Program Search)
CPS allows the selection and playback of any track up to 20 tracks ahead or before the one being played. This function operates by detecting blank spaces of at least 4 seconds between tracks. These blanks can be created by using the REC MUTE Function.
During forward playback, press theÔ or button repeatedly until the number of tracks to be skipped appears in the counter display.
Use the button to search a track ahead of the current track, and Ô button for a track before the current track.
Notes on CPS

-Intervals of less than 4 seconds.
-High levels of noise in intervals.
This problem can be corrected by using the REC MUTE function.
Note:
To simplify the description, the explanation is given for "forward playback" (Á direction). A similar procedure should be used for "reverse playback".
…If the required CPS number setting is exceeded by , use the Ô button to count down the CPS number until the required CPS number is displayed.
…When the button is pressed, the next track is counted as "1" and when theÔ button is pressed, the current track is counted as "1 ".
