CD - BASIC OPERATION

LOADING AND PLAYING

COMPACT DISCS

If mains power to the CD Pre

24

is switched

on with a disc already loaded, it will auto-

matically search for the disc and begin

playing from the first track. However,

playback will not be audible if the input

has previously been set to another source

before being switched off. The CD button

must therefore be pressed first.

If no disc is loaded, after about 3 or 4 sec-

onds the unit will display the following:

To play a disc, press the OPEN/CLOSE

button to open the transport drawer.

When the drawer is fully extended, insert

the required disc with the label facing

upwards and then press either the

OPEN/CLOSE or PLAY/PAUSE button

to close the transport drawer again.

If OPEN/CLOSE is pressed, the disc

drawer closes and the CD player scans the

contents of the disc. After a short delay,

the display window then shows for approx-

imately 4 seconds the total number of

tracks available on the CD, and total play-

ing time, for example:

Display time 0 on the left then replaces

the temporary track and time information,

indicating that a disc is loaded but not yet

playing.

The “calendar” grid pattern at the right-

hand end of the display also confirms

tracks available for playing up to the first

20, but remains displayed. In the above

example there are 4 tracks on the disc.

DISC PLAY

If PLAY/PAUSE is pressed, the CD player

will go into play mode, an arrow confirm-

ing playback will appear on the left, and

the current track and index point will be

displayed similar to the following example:

Again, the calendar grid shows playback

progress of the first 20 tracks only.

When all tracks on the CD have been

played, playback stops and the display

reverts to:

PAUSE

Pressing the PLAY/PAUSE button whilst a

disc is playing pauses playback of the disc.

A pause symbol ( ll ) appears in the dis-

play window next to the play arrow.

The disc will continue spinning but the

track does not advance and the CD Pre’s

output is muted.

Pressing PLAY/PAUSE again resumes

playback from the same place.

INDEX POINTS

Some CDs contain index points within a

track to separate a musical piece into dif-

ferent movements. If used, these index

point numbers (one or two digits, up to 99)

will appear in the display under the INDEX

graphic. Otherwise, index number 1 will

be displayed.
