Rotel RCD-06 Additional Features, Transport Control Buttons, OPEN/CLOSE Button 6A, PLAY Button 7M

Transport Control Buttons

These buttons provide basic control functions for the disc transport mechanism. Except where noted, all functions are available on the RCD-06 front panel and the IR remote con- trol.

OPEN/CLOSE Button 6A

When the transport disc drawer is closed, pressing this button automatically opens the drawer. To close the drawer, press this button again. The drawer can also be closed by pressing the PLAY button.

When the drawer is open, the Display will read “OPEN”. When it is closed with no disc, the display will read “NO DISC”. When the drawer closes with a disc inserted, the Display will indicate the number of tracks on the disc and the total time of the disc in minutes and seconds.

PLAY Button 7M

Press the PLAY button to start playing the disc. If the disc drawer is open, it will close automatically. The number of the track being played and the elapsed time will be shown in the display, along with the PLAY indicator. Normally, the disc will start playing with the first track. However, you can select a different track using the TRACK buttons or the DIRECT ACCESS buttons (see below) before pressing the PLAY button to start playing a different selection.

STOP Button 8F

This button stops a disc that is playing and resets the player, i.e. if play is resumed, the disc will start over from the first track. Pressing the STOP button twice quickly in succession cancels any programmed selections (see below).

PAUSE Button 9N

This button is used to temporarily suspend play. The disc continues to spin and play will be resumed from the current position. The PAUSE indicator will light in the Display. To resume playing the disc, press the PAUSE button again or press the PLAY button.

TRACK Buttons 0L

These buttons are used to select tracks on the disc. When a disc is playing, pressing the right TRACK button advances to the beginning of the next track. Pressing the left TRACK button returns to the beginning of the current track. Pressing twice quickly in succession returns to the beginning of the previous track. The new track number appears in the Display.

7

These buttons are also used to select a track before pressing the PLAY button or when memorizing tracks for the PROGRAM play mode (see below). These selections are made by continuously pressing the TRACK buttons until the desired track is reached.

In PROGRAM mode, the TRACK buttons advance or reverse to the next track in the memorized selection list.

DIRECT ACCESS Buttons B

Remote Only

These eleven numeric buttons (labelled 1 through 0 and >10) are used to directly access a track from the IR remote control instead of stepping through the tracks using the TRACK buttons.

The first ten tracks on a disc can be selected by pressing the corresponding button. For example, to play the third track, press the 3 button on the remote control.

When accessing track numbers greater than 10, press the>10 button followed by the track number. For example, to select track 12, press the >10 button followed by the 1 button and then the 2 button.

The number of the selected track will appear in the main numeric area at the center of the Display.

There is also a four by four matrix of track numbers (1 – 16) located at the right side of the display. This display indicates all of the tracks on the disc. If there are more than 16 tracks on the disc, all of the digits will light accompanied by the word OVER, regardless of which track is playing. This matrix is independent of the main numeric area of the Display, which will always indicate the currently playing track, even if above 16.

The DIRECT ACCESS buttons may also be used to memorize tracks in PROGRAM mode (see below).

SEARCH Buttons K

Remote Only

These buttons fast forward or fast reverse through the currently playing disc as long as they are pressed. While the buttons are pressed, you will hear high-speed audio. Releasing the buttons returns to PLAY mode.

Additional Features

These convenience features add extra func- tionality to the RCD-06, including the ability to memorize a group of tracks to be played, to repeat a disc, program, or track over and over, to play the tracks on a disc in random order, to automatically play the first 10 seconds of each track, and to select from several avail- able time displays.

PROGRAM Button J

Remote Only

This button, labeled PROG, allows you to memorize as many as 20 tracks on the cur- rent disc for playback in a specific order. For example, you could instruct the RCD-06 to play track 5, followed by track 3, followed by track

8. To begin a program:

1Insert a disc and press the OPEN/CLOSE button to close the drawer. The RCD-06 will read the contents of the disc.

2Press the PROGRAM button on the remote control. The PROGRAM indicator will light up in the Display, along with “P:00” indicat- ing that the unit is waiting for the first track to be memorized.

3.Enter the first track number using the DIRECT ACCESS buttons. Your selection will be memorized automatically and the Display indicator will change to “P:01”, indicat- ing that one track has been memorized. Continue entering the rest of your selections using the DIRECT ACCESS buttons. Note that there is no need to press the PROGRAM button as each selection is memorized as it is entered.

Once you have memorized a play list, the RCD-06 remains in PROGRAM mode until you open the disc drawer or press the STOP button twice in succession. If you press the PLAY button, the memorized program will play instead of the entire disc, starting with the first selection in the memorized list.

When a PROGRAM has been memorized, most functions that would normally affect the entire disc operate on just the memorized program. For example, the TRACK buttons advance to the next track in the memorized program, not the next track on the disc. Likewise, the REPEAT button (see below) continuously plays the memorized program, not the entire disc.
