Pioneer PD-F27 Operating Instructions - Page 17

BEFORE OPERATING VARIOUS OPERATIONS The following operations can only be performed during stop mode (Disc all program) If you skip step 3 of the operation example, disc 2 is programmed as step 1 . (Pause program) If you press 8 at step 4 , you can program a pause. When you press 8, "PA" appears in the display instead of the disc number. • For example, when making a program for recording both sides of a cassette tape, press 8 to insert a pause after programming the tracks for one side. After turning the tape over, press 8 to resume recording. Notes!! • You cannot program a pause as the first step, nor program two pauses in a row. • When you program a pause, it counts as 1 step and reduces the total number of tracks you can program. • To erase a program... Press 7 twice during playback (or once in stop mode). You can also erase the program by pressing MODE, RANDOM, PREVIOUS, or SINGLE LOADER PLAY in either play or stop mode (or by pressing BEST in stop mode). • To cancel a program step In stop mode, each time you press CLEAR, the last step in the program is erased. • If a programmed disc is missing or inserted backwards during program play, "NO DISC" appears in the display, the step is automatically erased, and playback proceeds to the next step. • Program contents are stored in memory even when the power is turned off. • Press the TIME/CHARA twice to check the number of steps that have been programmed. RENTAL DISC TRACK REMAIN MIN SEC ALL RANDOM REPEAT - 1 BEST ADLC CUSTOM SINGLE CD TEXT PREVIOUS SCAN PROGRAM This indicates the number of programmed steps. (Memory Back-Up Function) Memorized data will be stored in memory for approx. 1 month even if the power cord is unplugged. However, this period may be shortened somewhat, depending on the amount of memory used. Notes!! • If step 5 is carried out before the accumulated time is displayed, the program play starts and the time is not displayed. • When UNLOAD is pressed while a program has been entered, the disc for the 1st program step comes on the center position and the hood opens. • The display is not shown if the total time of the program is 100 minutes or more. • When another PD-F27 is connected to create a 602-disc changer, only the discs loaded in one of the PD-F27's can be programmed. It is not possible to program discs from both of the PD-F27s. • The following restrictions apply to programming when 2 PD-F27 units are connected. • When inputting program data with the remote control unit, when the 1st disc number is P0 or between 1 and 300, program input will be on the MASTER unit. When between 301-600, program input will be on the SLAVE unit. • Carry out programming of the SLAVE unit's P0 using the controls on the SLAVE unit. • When programs are input on both the MASTER unit and SLAVE unit, program playback will start from the unit that PLAY is pressed on. After playback has finished, pressing PLAY on the other unit will start playback on that unit. (RELAY PROGRAM play is not possible.) When PLAY is pressed on the remote control unit, the program on the MASTER unit will playback. BASIC OPERATIONS VARIOUS OPERATIONS 17
