DISC ID FEATURE

When connected to a compatible CD changer, the Disc ID feature incorporated in this unit allows you to program an identifying name of up to 8 characters for up to 110 different discs. The Disc ID may be the disc name, artist’s name, music type, or anything else of your choosing. The Disc ID feature is most useful when trying to locate a specific disc within the magazine. Instead of waiting for each disc to load and begin playing to find the desired one, you can see the Disc ID as the Disc Select button 4 is used. Simply press the Disc Select button until the Disc ID of the desired disc is shown on the display panel. That disc will then be automatically loaded and begin playing. Programming and use of the Disc ID feature are as follows:

PROGRAMMING THE DISC ID

1.Select CD changer operation using the Play/Pause Selector 2.

2.Using the Disc Select button 4, select the disc in the magazine for which you will be programming the Disc ID name. The display panel will show the disc number and “LOAD” as the selected disc is loaded from the magazine into the player.

3.When the disc has finished loading and play has begun, press and hold the Display Call button bl for 4 seconds until a series of 8 dashes or cursors (_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _) appear on the display panel (the first cursor will be flashing).

4.Within 5 seconds of the cursors appearing, use the Track Select button 5 to find the first character (letters A - Z, numbers 0 - 9, +, -, *, /, \, >, <, \, and _ (space) are available) of the name that you wish to program as the Disc ID.

5.When the desired character is found, press the Display Call button blso the cursor in the second position is flashing.

6.In the same manner as described in step 4, use the Track Select button 5 to find the second character for the Disc ID name. When the character is found, use the Display Call button bl to move to the third cursor position.

7.Continue the above procedure until the entire Disc ID (up to 8 characters) is programmed for the selected disc.

8.Within 5 seconds of completing the programming of the first

Disc ID (while the cursor or the last programmed character is still flashing), use the Disc Select button 4 to select the next disc to have its Disc ID programmed. Use the procedure of steps 4 through 7 to program the name of the second Disc ID.

9.Continue the above method until names for all discs in the magazine for which Disc ID’s are to be assigned have been programmed.

10.When finished naming the discs in the magazine, the magazine can be ejected, a new set of discs loaded into it, and then those discs can have Disc ID’s assigned by repeating steps 1 through 9. This procedure can be repeated until all discs (up to 110) for which a Disc ID is to be assigned have been programmed.
