TIMER OPERATIONS

With a commercially available audio timer, it is possible

to make recordings and initiate playback automatically

at any time.

Make sure that all power cord connections between the

timer and amplifier/receiver are properly made.

For details, refer to the instructions of your audio timer.

No change in any of the other connections between the

recorder and amplifier/receiver, etc., is necessary.

Timer Recording

1 Turn on the power of each component, then set

your tuner to the station you want to record.

2 Set this unit’s recording options.

Select digital or analog inputs, auto or manual marking,

stereo or mono recording and then set the recording level.

3 Turn down the volume on your amplifier/

receiver.

This has no effect on the recording level.

4 Set the timer to the times at which you want to

start and stop recording.

We recommend setting the timer to start a few minutes

before and stop a few minutes after the actual broadcast to

leave some room for later editing.

5 Set TIMER to REC.

When the preset time arrives, the timer turns on the

components (amplifier/receiver, tuner and MD recorder)

and the MD recorder starts to record. When the stop time

arrives, the timer stops the recording by turning off the

components.

Notes

• When recording to a blank MD, recording starts from the

beginning. When recording to a previously recorded MD,

recording starts from the end of the last track.

• Set TIMER to OFF when not using the timer recording

function. If the power is turned on (by pressing POWER,

plugging in the power cord, etc.) when TIMER is set to

REC, the MD recorder will start recording automatically.

• When timer recording is performed, the recorded contents

are not written to the MD until the the unit is turned on

again. When the unit is turned on, “TOC Writing” appears

in the display. While this message appears, do not subject

the unit to shock or vibration or turn off the power.

• During timer recording, recording is stopped when there is

no remaining recording time on the MD.

Timer Playback

1 Turn on the amplifier/receiver and adjust the

volume and tone controls.

2 Set the input mode selector of your amplifier/

receiver to MD.

3 Set the timer to the times at which you want to

start and stop playback.

4 Set TIMER to PLAY.

When the preset time arrives, the timer turns on the

components (amplifier/receiver and MD recorder) and the

MD recorder starts to play. When the stop time arrives, the

timer stops the playback by turning off the components.

Notes

• Playback always starts from the beginning of the MD.

• Set TIMER to OFF when not using the timer play

function. If the power is turned on (by pressing POWER,

plugging in the power cord, etc.) when TIMER is set to

PLAY, the MD recorder will start to play and may cause a

sudden output at high volume.
