Chapter Three • CLD-V5000 Level III

12)MULTI-SPEED FORWARD

LD (CAV Only)

13)MULTI-SPEED REVERSE

LD (CAV Only)

Function:

Playing is done at the speed set in the speed register.

Format:

(Address) M F - MULTI-SPEED FORWARD

 

 

(Address) M R - MULTI-SPEED REVERSE

Explanation:

1) If this command is sent to the player when it is in Random

 

 

Access Mode, the Multi-Speed Mode occurs. In Multi-Speed Mode,

 

 

the video is played back at a speed specified by the Speed

 

 

Register.

 

2)If an address is specified, playing is done at the speed specified in the Speed Register. The specified address is written in the Mark Frame Register or Mark Chapter Register and compared with the current address. When both values are the same, Still Mode occurs. Then the completion status is returned.

IMPORTANT NOTE

When using the MULTI-SPEED command with an address, the auto stop function will be released if any other command, including a status request, is sent before the specified address is reached.

Use the Stop Marker command to achieve an auto stop MULTI-SPEED function. This will allow for status requests and maintain the end address marker.
