Remote Control

1IR TRANSMITTER WINDOW

The Nº31.5’s Remote Control sends infrared (IR) commands through its pro- jection lens, and the Nº31.5 receives IR commands through its Remote sen- sor window. (See Front Panel.) If either of these lenses is obstructed, no IR commands can be received by the Nº31.5. If you notice IR performance de- teriorating, you may want to clean these lenses with a soft cloth and some glass cleaner. (Spray the cleaner on the cloth first, and then wipe the lens with the moistened cloth. Do not spray the cleaner directly on either lens, as this may allow moisture to migrate into the electronics behind the lens as- semblies.)

2TRANSPORT & PROGRAMMING BUTTONS

The buttons used for routine operation of transport functions on the Nº31.5 are grouped at the top of the remote control. They include:

() reverse scan: When pressed, the Nº31.5 will enter a reverse audible scanning mode similar to the familiar rewind function of many cassette decks, allowing a precise location within a track to be located.

() forward scan: When pressed, the Nº31.5 will enter a fast forward audible scanning mode similar to the familiar fast forward function of many cassette decks, allowing a precise location within a track to be located.

() play: Press to enter the play mode from either stop, pause, or standby, or to restart play at the beginning of the track currently playing. Pressing play while in an A-Bloop will return you to point A.

() stop: Press to stop the disc. The same button will operate the

Lid if stopping the disc has no relevance (e.g., if it is already stopped, or if there is no disc inside the Nº31.5).

() pause: Press to pause play in the current location. If left in pause mode for more than two minutes, the Nº31.5 will enter extended pause mode, shutting down both the laser and the drive motors to enhance longevity and reliability. Upon pressing pause or play a second time, the disc will spin up and begin playing from the location where it had been paused. (You may also force the Nº31.5 into extended pause mode by pressing and holding the pause button for a few seconds.)

(+)track +: When pressed, this will take you to the beginning of the next track. Also used to add a track to a playlist when creating a custom program. (See Introduction to Programming.)
