3 – Playback operations
The CD-RW2000 can be used to play back CDs
(including CD-R and CD-RW discs that have been
recorded and finalized on other types of recorder), as
well as CD-R discs and CD-RW discs that have been
recorded on the unit.
3.1 Simple playback operations
1 Press the OPEN/CLOSE key (
3
or
1
) to open
the disc tray.
2 Discs should be inserted in the tray with the
label uppermost.
3 Press the OPEN/CLOSE key (
3
or
1
) to close
the tray again.
When a disc is loaded into the unit, the display
briefly shows
TOC Reading. , with a flash-
ing period following the word “Reading” as the unit
determines the contents of the disc. When the TOC
has been read, the display shows (at the top left of the
display) one of the following:
1 Press the PLAY key (
H
or
L
) to start playback
2 Press the STOP key (
G
or
I
) to stop playback
3 Press the PAUSE key (
I
or
J
) to pause play-
back temporarily.
The track number indicators at the bottom of the dis-
play light, to show the available unplayed tracks. If
there are thirteen tracks on the disc, for example,
indicators
1 through 13 will light. If there are more
than 20 tracks on a disc, the track number OVER indi-
cator (at the bottom of the display) will light.
3.1.1 Time display modes
When playing back a CD (or in pause mode), there
are four different time display modes.
In each mode, the current track number is given, fol-
lowed by the time, as given below, e.g.
10
Tr
0:48
Press the DISPLAY key (
A
or
5
) to cycle through
these time display modes, as described below:
NOTE
If programmed playback has been selected (3.2,
“Programmed order playback”), the elapsed time and
total remaining time refer to the programmed mate-
rial, not the whole disc.
3.1.2 Track search
Use the MULTI DIAL control
B
or the SKIP keys on
the remote control unit
H
to jump forward or back-
ward by one track at a time, as shown on the display.
Note that going forward from the last track of the
disc will “wrap round” to track 1, and going back-
ward from the first track of the disc will “wrap
round” to the last track of the disc.
The track number indicators at the bottom of the dis-
play shows the selected track (the lit indicator at the
left of the row of indicators).
It is also possible to use the number keys on the
remote control unit
2
to jump directly to a particular
track:
1 To play tracks 1 through 9, simply press the
appropriate key (
1 through 9 ).
2 To play a track whose number is higher than 9,
press the +10 key an appropriate number of
times to set the “tens” digit of the track num-
ber, followed by a single key to set the “units”
digit. For example:
Track 13 = +10 , 3
Track 30 = +10 , +10 , +10 , 0
On the remote control unit only, the SEARCH keys
G
can be used to “fast-forward” and “fast-rewind”
through the disc.
3.1.3 Playback modes
The unit can be set to play back the whole disc in the
order in which it was created, the tracks of the disc in
a random (shuffled) order, or a programmed order
(see 3.2, “Programmed order playback”).
