By connecting this deck with a timer
(commercially available), you can start and
stop recording operations at a preset time.

1. Perform steps 1 to 6 of "Recording an

MD" on page 8.

3. Set the [TIMER] so that it starts and stops

power supply at the desired start time
and end time.

… As the actual recording starts after the

"TOC Reading" operation, set the timer
recording start time to slightly before the
time when you want to start recording.

… Each component power is turned off.
… When the start time comes, power is

supplied to the components and
recording starts.

[CAUTION]
… When timer recording is performed in

the "SHUFFLE" mode or "PROGRAM"
mode, the deck automatically enters the
"CONTINUE" mode.

… Be sure to turn the deck on again and

eject the MD within 3 or 4 days of timer
recording. When the MD is ejected, the
recorded contents will be written on the
MD. If the deck is left off for a long time
after the timer recording has finished,
the contents may disappear.
