3 - Auto track numbering level
3.12.1Spindle motor time
S _ TIME> 121
Use this to check how many hours the spindle motor has been in operation.
R3.12.2Laser pickup time
R _ TIME> 43
This indicates how many hours the laser pickup has been used for recording.
3.12.3System software version
SYS> 01 . 00
This allows you to check the current system software version.
R3.13Auto track numbering level
A _ TRK LVL ?
This allows the setting of the threshold above which a signal received at the AES/EBU jack or either of the analog connectors triggers the start of a new track (see 4.3.4, "Track number incrementing"). This value can be off, or one of nine values, as detailed below.
There should be a period of relative silence (i.e. below the trigger level) of at least three seconds between “tracks” in the source material for this func- tion to operate.
NOTE
Bear in mind that some classical material, spoken word, etc. may include such periods of silence, and this may cause spurious track divisions. Also, some analog material may be noisy, and the noise may go above the track division threshold. Adjust the threshold level taking these factors into consideration.
After the menu has been opened with the SHUTTLE wheel, the display changes:
A _ TRK> - 54dB
The available settings are:
R3.14Copy ID
COPY ID SEL?
When recording an MD on the
The three settings available are:
•Copy

•Copy
After the menu has been opened with the SHUTTLE wheel, the display changes:
COPY ID>Free
The default setting is for free copying. The restric- tions apply only to digital copies produced through the COAXIAL port. The copy bit is ignored if the recording is made when the disc is played back through the AES/EBU connector.
R3.15Post-script recording
PS REC ?
As explained in 4.3.5,
This function also controls the operation of the replace recording function (see 4.3.6, "Replace recording").
After the menu has been opened with the SHUTTLE wheel, the display changes:
