3. DISPLAY

The display provides information about playback status and about the

optical pickup’s location on the disc. The displayed track/time

information is obtained by reading inaudible “sub-codes” in the disc.

TRACK NUMBER Each disc is segmented into numbered tracks

when the recording is made; typically each numbered track will

correspond to a different song, symphonic movement, etc. These

track numbers are identified on the CD package and are encoded

in the disc by its manufacturer. In some CDs, at the manufacturer’s

option, tracks may be sub-divided into sections identified by Index

numbers. This player does not display Index numbers.

TIME Normally this display shows the time elapsed since the

beginning of the current track. Using the TIME button you can

switch the display to show the remaining number of tracks and

playing time to the end of the disc. When you load a different disc

and use the OPEN button (No. 4) to close the disc drawer, the

display shows the number of tracks and the total playing time of

all the tracks on the disc.

REMAIN REMAIN lights up in the lower-left corner of the display

if you have pressed the TIME button to show the remaining

number of tracks and time of the disc.

REPEAT 1 “REPEAT” and “1” light up respectively in the centre

and upper-left corner during repeat-play of a single track.

“REPEAT” and “ALL” light up during repeat-play of the entire

program or disc

RANDOM When the C 542’s random mode has been selected,

“RANDOM” will be shown in the Display Panel.

CALENDAR DISPLAY TRACK LISTING Displays a list of tracks

available on the disc. As each track is played its number is

blanked out on the Track Listing, giving a simple indication of how

much of the disc has been played and how much remains. The

number for the current track being played blinks. The display

shows up to 16 numbered tracks.

OVER If the loaded disc contains over 16 tracks, “OVER” will light

up in the bottom centre area of the display.

MEMORY During Program Play or programming for Program

Play, MEMORY will light up.

PROGRAM Together with MEMORY, PROGRAM will light up during

playback of a selection of pre-programmed tracks of the disc.

STATUS A right-pointing arrowhead , located near the left

edge of the time display, lights up during PLAY. Two vertical bars

indicate that the player is in PAUSE. In STOP mode the

display reverts to showing the total number of tracks and playing

time of the disc.

no dISC When no disc is present or when you load a disc that

cannot be read (because it is dirty or is upside-down) “no dISC”

lights up in the display.

REMOTE RECEIVER An infrared sensor, located at the right-

hand portion of the display window, receives commands from the

remote control. There must be a clear line-of-sight path from the

remote control to this window; if that path is obstructed, the

remote control may not work.

HDCD

indicator This indicator will light up when an HDCD

encoded disc is played. For more information on HDCD

refer to

chapter “HDCD”.

4. OPEN

Press this button to open the disc drawer, and press it again to

close the drawer. If this button is pressed while a disc is being

played, playback will stop, the pickup will reset to the beginning of

the disc and the drawer will open. Opening the drawer will also

delete the players memory for Program Play. When the disc drawer

is open, the drawer-closing mechanism can also be activated by

pressing PLAY or by gently pushing the drawer inward.

NOTE: The disc drawer is opened and closed by an internal

motor. Do not close the drawer by hand with the power off.

When the drawer closes, the player scans the disc’s TOC (Table Of

Contents) and displays the total number of tracks and playing time

on the disc. If you press PLAY to close the drawer this information

is skipped, and play commences immediately at Track 1.

5. PLAY/PAUSE

This dual-function button alternates between starting and stopping

playback. Press to start play or to resume play after Pause. During

play, press this button to stop playback temporarily, keeping the

optical pickup at its current position on the disc. The PLAY mode

is identified by a right-pointing arrowhead in the display. The

PAUSE mode is identified by two vertical bars . To resume

playback at the exact point where it stopped, press PLAY/PAUSE

again. If you don’t want to resume play at the same point, you may

use the SKIP and SCAN controls to cue the pickup to a different

starting point before pressing PLAY again.

6. TIME

The TIME button alternates between displaying the elapsed or

remaining tracks and time of the disc or program being played. In

the default setting, the display will indicate the current track

number and time elapsed since the beginning of the track. Press

the button once to display the total number of remaining tracks

and time of the disc or program being played. Press again to

revert to the default, elapsed time display.

7. STOP

Press the STOP button once to stop playback, and re-sets the

pickup to the beginning of the disc. The display reverts to showing

the number of tracks and total playing time on the disc. If the CD

player was programmed to play a selection of tracks, the program

will be retained in the player’s memory. Pressing STOP a second

time will also delete the program. Pressing STOP twice will also

disengage Repeat and Random play if these were engaged.

8. REPEAT

This button engages the Repeat Play mode, an endless-repeat

cycle. Press the Repeat button once to select the REPEAT 1 mode,

in which only the current track is repeated over and over again.

Pressing the Repeat button once again selects the REPEAT ALL

mode, in which the entire disc is played from beginning to end,

over and over again. Press the Repeat button a third time to cancel

the repeat cycle and return to normal operation.

smaller circular recess, with its label facing UP.
