Direct search
Direct search from the main unit is possible, depending on the main unit features. Use the feature to select file or file from playlist directly.
Using Direct Search function, some limitations apply:
•Only current title of the playlist (disc) can be displayed. Other playlist titles might be displayed as “NO TITLE”, just blank.
•File direct search function cannot be used correctly after the 99th song.
•EA1251 does not support List Screen and KEY PAD screen, as available in certain Multimedia Station models (i.e. VRX745VD).
Playback position and setting
Playback position and setting will remain the same as long as the iPod stays connected to EA1251. If the iPod is disconnected, playback position will return to the default playback setting.
Playlist
EA1251 simulates iPod as a 6 Disc CD Changer. Therefore, a maximum of five acceptable playlists will be indicated as “Disc” in a 6 Disc CD Changer.
Disc 1 is assigned for All Songs Play Mode.
Discs 2 to Discs 6 are assigned for 5 acceptable playlists.
Other playlist will not be assigned and can only be played under DISC1.
EA1251 can search up to about 400 playlists. If there are more than 400, the main unit might not response to iPod and displays ER2. If so, reduce iPod playlists numbers.
How to create playlist
Playlist must be created in iPod prior to connection to the main unit. Main unit cannot be used to create playlist. Please consult iPod Users Manual for playlist creation.

Every time Disc Up, Disc Down or TOP buttons are pressed, playback will start from the first song of the playlist (Disc).
Acceptable playlist
To create acceptable playlist, assign playlist name as clarion1, clarion2, clarion3, clarion4, and clarion5. Do not add any character before, after or in between the characters. Use lower case for all characters.
When iPod is connected to EA1251 and main unit, main unit will search for available playlist, and automatically assign acceptable playlists to Disc 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6. Only a maximum of 5 playlists are recognized and assigned. If there are less than 5 acceptable playlists, unassigned Disc(s) will show as “ No DISC”.
“DISC CHECK” is shown during loading.
Smart playlist
EA1251 might not play updated songs of “Smart Playlist” properly.
