APMS

(Automatic Programmable Music Selector)

1 Press the PROGRAM button while in the stop mode.

Programs cannot be set or canceled while in the playback or pause mode.

2 Select a desired track number by pressing the DIRECT KEY button on the remote control.

Repeat steps 1 and 2 for any track. Up to 20 tracks can be programmed.

If the total program playing time exceeds 199 minutes and 59 seconds, “— : —” will appear. However, the programmed selections will still be memorized.

3 Press the button.

4 Press the 06 button to start playback of the programmed selections.

After all of the programmed tracks have finished playing, the unit will automatically stop.

To clear the programmed selections:

Press the DELETE/CLEAR (CLEAR) button while the “PRGM” indicator is flashing.

Each time the button is pressed, one track will be cleared, beginning with the last track programmed.

To cancel the APMS:

While the unit is stopped in the APMS mode, press the CLEAR button on the remote control to turn off “PRGM”.

When you use the DELETE/CLEAR button on the main unit, all of the programmed contents will be erased by holding it down for at least 2 seconds. (If you simply press this button briefly, the unit will enter the timer mode.)

The program contents will be erased.

If a MiniDisc is removed or when the unit enters the recording standby mode, the APMS mode will be canceled.

To check which tracks are programmed:

While the unit is stopped in the APMS mode, turn the jog dial. Or press the 5 or 4 button on the remote control.

When the jog dial is turned clockwise, the next track number will appear. When it is turned counterclockwise, the previous track number will appear.

To add tracks to the APMS:

When a program has been entered ("PRGM" will be lit), perform steps 1 - 4. Additional tracks can be selected and they will be stored after the last track you entered.

Note:

It is not possible to insert an additional track between programmed tracks that have already been entered.
