Prog (for Program) allows you to quickly and easily create a programmed sequence of tracks (or chapters) to be played on the current disc. Pressing Prog will take you directly to the program page of the menu system, regardless of where you might be. Once on the program page, you can change the highlighted track using the Up and Down buttons, and can use the Enter button to toggle whether it is included in the current program. Pressing Prog a second time returns you to wherever you had been. (Note that the program function is not available during play or pause, only when the CDP-502 is in stop.)

Vol (for Volume) buttons raise and lower the output level of the CDP-502, assuming you are using the analog outputs in their variable output mode. If you set the analog outputs to their fixed, line-level setting, or if you are using the digital output to your preamplifier/processor, these buttons will have no effect.

Mute will engage the mute function of the CDP-502 as you have defined it (either Classic, Specific, or Dampening; see The Menu System for more details).

3Navigation Keys

The central section of the remote control contains the navigation keys. This array of keys is similar to what you may have seen on remote controls for DVD players, and is used for navigation of the menu system of the CDP-502.

Setup serves two functions: it calls up the menu system when you need it in order to adjust something to your preference; once within the menu system, pressing Setup returns you to the previous level of the menu system. If you press Setup when at the top level of the menu system, it will take you back out of the menu system to the normal display.

Home returns you to the normal display of chapter/track, time, and transport controls shown on the LCD screen on the front panel of the CDP-502. This provides a quick way to get back to normal operation, regardless of how deep you might be in the menu system.

The DVD standard supports two levels of menus:

1)a menu of available “titles” on the disc (e.g., the main movie, plus extra “bonus” materials like documentaries, etc.);

2)each “title” then has a subordinate menu of chapters within the title.
