4.5 Command Formats

Level III commands on the CLD-V2600 and the CLD-V2400 are expressed as
“Command Mnemonics”, so they are easy to remember. “Command Mnemonics” are
also used for Level III control of the LD-V2200, LD-V8000, LD-V4400, the LD-V4200
(a discontinued model), the LC-V330 Autochanger, as well as for the LD-V4100 (PAL
player), CLD-V2300 (NTSC/PAL) and the LD-V4300D (NTSC/PAL player). Some
commands are preceded by an “argument” that is expressed as an integer. These
may indicate a specific “address” location on the disc or set function parameters.

Command Mnemonic

— Each Level III command is expressed as two ASCII

alphabetic characters, representing the command mnemonic. There is no
distinction between uppercase letters and lowercase letters. Example: PL (Play);
Pl (Play); pl (Play).

Argument

—An argument is expressed in ASCII digits and it is placed before the

command. When a command requiring an argument has no argument, an error
(E06) is returned. An argument consists of either an address or an integer:

1)

An Address

— The address can be a frame number, time number, chapter number

(LDs) or time, block, track or index number (CDs) depending how the address flag is
set. When an address larger than the maximum allowable value is input, correct
evaluation cannot be made. Addresses may be expressed as numbers indicated below:
