User manual ROTEL RCD-950

[. . . ] Heed all warnings and safety information in these instructions and on the product itself. You must allow 10 cm or 4 inches of unobstructed clearance around the unit. Do not place the unit on a bed, sofa, rug, or similar surface that could block the ventilation slots. If the component is placed in a bookcase or cabinet, there must be ventilation of the cabinet to allow proper cooling. [. . . ] The RCD-950 gives you a choice of two different kinds of output connections -- an analog output signal from the built-in D/A converter for use with conventional analog audio components and a coax digital output which provides an unprocessed digital data signal for use with outboard D/A converters or digital processors. The RCD-950 can be operated using its front panel buttons or from corresponding buttons on the supplied infrared remote control. Most of the buttons are duplicated on the front panel and on the IR remote control. However, there are a few exceptions where the buttons are only available on one or the other. Note: Should you move your CD player to another country, it may be possible to reconfigure it for use on a different line voltage. Opening the enclosure of the RCD-950 exposes you to dangerous voltages. Consult a qualified service person or the Rotel factory service department for information. The RCD-950 should be plugged directly into a 2-pin polarized wall outlet or into the switched outlet on another component in your audio system. Be sure the power switch on the front panel of the RCD-950 is turned off (in the "out" position). Then, connect the supplied power cord to the AC power receptacle on the rear of the unit and the AC power outlet. If you are going to be away from home for an extended period of time such as a monthlong vacation, it is a sensible precaution to unplug your CD player (as well as other audio and video components) while you are away. When the transport disc drawer is closed, pressing this button automatically opens the drawer. The drawer can also be closed by pressing the PLAY button When the drawer is open, the Display will read "OPEN". When it is closed with no disc, the display will read "NO DISC". When the drawer closes with a disc inserted, the Display will indicate the number of tracks on the disc and the total time of the disc in minutes and seconds. When a disc is playing, pressing the right TRACK button advances to the beginning of the next track. Pressing the left TRACK button returns to the beginning of the current track. Pressing twice quickly in succession returns to the beginning of the previous track. These buttons are also used to select a track before pressing the PLAY button or when memorizing tracks for the PROGRAM play mode (see below). These selections are made by continuously pressing the TRACK buttons until the desired track is reached. These buttons fast forward or fast reverse through the currently playing disc as long as they are pressed. These convenience features add extra functionality to the RCD-950, including the ability to play high-definition HDCD discs, to memorize a group of tracks to be played, to repeat a disc, program, or track over and over, to play the tracks on a disc in random order, to automatically play the first 10 seconds of each track, and to select from several available time displays. [. . . ] To program tracks from the handheld remote control, enter the first track number using the DIRECT ACCESS buttons. Your selection will be memorized automatically and the Display indicator will change to "P:01", indicating that one track has been memorized. Continue entering the rest of your selections using the DIRECT ACCESS buttons. Note that there is no need to press the PROGRAM button as each selection is memorized as it is entered. [. . . ]
