Other Operations Naming preset stations and program sources You can enter a name of up to 8 characters for preset stations and program sources. These names (for example, "VHS") appear in the receiver's display when a station or program source is selected. Note that no more than one name can be entered for each preset station or program source. This function is useful for distinguishing components of the same kind. For example, two VCRs can be specified as "VHS" and "8mm", respectively. It is also handy for identifying components connected to jacks meant for another type of component, for example, a second CD player connected to the MD/DAT jacks. 1 To index a preset station Rotate FUNCTION to select TUNER, then tune in the preset station you want to create an index name for. The last station you received is tuned in. If you are not familiar with how to tune in preset stations, see "Tuning to preset stations" on page 37. To index a program source Select the program source (component) to be named. 2 Press NAME. 3 Create an index name by using the jog dial and cursor buttons: Turn the jog dial to select a character, then press to move the cursor to the next position. To insert a space Turn the jog dial until a blank space appears in the display (the space character is between "??" and "A"). If you've made a mistake Press or repeatedly until the character to be changed flashes, then turn the jog dial to select the right character. 4 Press ENTER. 5 Repeat steps 2 to 4 to assign index name for another station or program source. Recording Before you begin, make sure you've connected all components properly. Recording on an audio tape or MiniDisc You can record on a cassette tape or MiniDisc using the receiver. See the operating instructions of your cassette deck or MD deck if you need help. 1 Select the component to be recorded. 2 Prepare the component for playing. For example, insert a CD into the CD player. 3 Insert a blank tape or MD into the recording deck and adjust the recording level, if necessary. 4 Start recording on the recording deck, then start playback on the playback component. 38
