PLAY/PAUSE button. Pressing this button starts or

resumes playback of the inserted disc if the disc is stopped

or paused, or pauses playback if pressed when the disc is

already playing. Pressing PLAY/PAUSE from Stop Mode

restarts the disc from the beginning, whereas pressing

it from Resume Mode continues playback from the last

location. The front panel display will either indicate Play

Mode with the word Play and the H symbol, or Pause Mode

with the word Pause and the B symbol.

STOP button. Pressing this button stops the disc from

all transport modes. The display either will show the word

Resume, following a single press of STOP, or Stop after a

second press.

CUE button. This accesses the player’s bookmark or cue-

point locating feature. Pressing CUE in Play or Pause modes

allows a cue-marker point to be stored with the MARK/

ENTER button. Once a marker point has been stored, a

second press on the MARK/ENTER button will locate to

the stored location and exit the bookmarking feature. In

addition, the stored cue-marker may be cleared using the

CLR button on the remote control, or the LEFT or RIGHT

cursor buttons on the front panel. Pressing CUE a second

time will exit the function. See page 27

for full details.

FFWD button. Pressing this button from Play or Pause

Modes puts the unit into a Search function, causing the disc

to be scanned at 2x normal speed in a forward direction.

Further presses of FFWD double the previous search

speed, up to a maximum of 16x normal speed. Audio is

muted in Search.

FWD Search is indicated by FFWD and the speed multiple in

the front panel display.

FREW button. This button has the same function as the

FFWD button

above, except that the search direction

is reversed. REW Search is indicated by FREW in the front

panel display.

PREVIOUS button. The function of PREVIOUS varies

slightly with disc type. With CDs or SACDs, if pressed in

Play or Pause mode during the first 5 seconds of a track,

PREVIOUS causes the disk to jump to the start of the

previous track. If pressed after the first 5 seconds of a

track, it will jump to the start of the current track. In either

case, playback commences from the new location. With

DVDs, PREVIOUS will always jump back to the start of the

current chapter.

NEXT button. This button works in a similar way to

PREVIOUS

above, except that the track/chapter jumped

to is the one following that currently playing. Pressing NEXT

while playing the last track has no effect.

CURSOR controls. The normal UP, DOWN, LEFT and

RIGHT cursor controls are provided for navigating the

various on-screen menus generated by the player or

authored onto video discs. LEFT and RIGHT cursor controls

also provide front panel cue-point CLEAR functionality.

MARK/ENTER button. This button has several functions.

When navigating on-screen menus using the cursor buttons

above, the button acts as an ENTER key, to confirm a

selected menu option or track selection.

The button is also used to mark a point in programme

material for subsequent location in conjunction with the CUE

button

.

MARK/ENTER also initiates disk playback from STOP mode.

TOP MENU button. With DVDs, cancels current transport

mode and displays disc’s main Disc Menu. (NB this will

generally be the Title Menu on discs with only a single Title)

MENU button. With DVDs, cancels current transport

mode and displays the Title Menu for the currently-selected

Title. The MENU button also enables PBC navigation with

VCD (Video CD) and Super VCD discs.

SETUP button. The SETUP button has two functions,

depending whether a disc is loaded when it is pressed.

With a disc loaded, pressing SETUP enters the UDP-89’s

internal menu system, which provides a range of user-

selectable options and additional operating modes. These

are described in detail later in the manual (see page 38).

The drive enters Resume Mode if a disc is playing. A second

press of SETUP from anywhere in the menu structure

exits the menu system; disc playback will resume from the

previous location.

A long press on SETUP (more than ½ second) without a

disc being loaded allows re-assignment of the UDP-89’s

Parallel remote control connector. See page 42 for full

details.

AUTO-PAUSE (A-PAUSE) button. This button selects

Auto-Pause Mode. The A.PAUSE flag illuminates in the

display.

Auto-Pause Mode modifies the operation of the CUE, NEXT

and PREVIOUS functions; these are described in greater

detail later in the manual (see page 27)

HEADPHONE SOCKET. A ¼” 3-pole jack socket for the

connection of headphones for monitoring purposes. The

signal available at this connector is the main L+R stereo

output. Headphones with an impedance of 32 ohms

upwards may be used.

HEADPHONE LEVEL control. This is a conventional

analogue volume control for the headphone output.
