REPEAT Button
2
G
This button allows you to repeat the current track or the entire disc continuously
until the feature is cancelled by disengaging the REPEAT button or pressing the
STOP button . The REPEAT button steps sequentially through the available
options. Press the button once and the RCD-1572 will repeat just the current
track. Press the button a second time and the RCD-1572 will repeat the entire
disc. Press the button a third time to cancel the REPEAT function.
As noted above, REPEAT can be used in conjunction with the RANDOM
play feature.
NOTE:
The REPEAT function is automatically cancelled when the disc
is ejected.
TIME Button

G
Normally, the RCD-1572 displays the elapsed time of the currently playing
track. The TIME button allows you to step through two alternative time
displays. Pressing the button once displays the time remaining in the current
track, which counts down as the track continues playing. Pressing the button
a second time displays the time remaining on the entire disc (or memorized
program). Pressing the button a third time reverts to the standard elapsed
time display.
NOTE:
If a disc has CD Text information on it, pressing the play button
during playback will alternate between standard disc information and
any CD Text data being shown on the display.

The unit can be controlled via RS232 for integration with automation systems.
The RS232 input accepts a standard straight DB-9 Male-to-Female cable.
For additional information on the connections, software, and operating codes
for RS232 control of the RCD-1572, contact your authorized Rotel dealer.

This 3.5mm mini-jack receives command codes from industry-standard infrared
receivers via hard-wired connections. This feature could prove useful when
the unit is installed in a cabinet and the front-panel sensor is blocked. Consult
your authorized Rotel dealer for information on these external repeaters and
the proper wiring of a jack to fit the mini-jack receptacle.

active, you will hear high-speed audio.
Additional Features
These convenience features add extra functionality to the RCD-1572, including
the ability 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, and to select from several available time displays.
PROGRAM Button
G
Remote Only
This button, labeled PROG, allows you to memorize as many as 20 tracks
on the current disc for playback in a specific order. For example, you could
instruct the RCD-1572 to play track 5, followed by track 3, followed by track 8.
To begin a program:
1. Insert a disc into the tray loader. The RCD-1572 will read the contents
of the disc.
2. Press the PROG button on the remote control. The PROGRAM indicator
will light up in the display, along with “PROG-01” indicating that the
unit is waiting for the first track to be memorized.
3. Enter the first track number using the DIRECT ACCESS buttons. Your
selection will be memorized automatically. Press PROG button again
then the display indicator will change to “PROG-02”. Continue entering
the rest of your selections using the DIRECT ACCESS buttons.
Once you have memorized a play list, the RCD-1572 remains in PROGRAM
mode until you eject the disc or press and hold the PROG button for 3
seconds. If you press the PLAY button
u
, the memorized program will play
instead of the entire disc, starting with the first selection in the memorized list.
When a PROGRAM has been memorized, most functions that would normally
affect the entire disc operate on just the memorized program. For example,
the TRACK buttons advance to the next track in the memorized program,
not the next track on the disc. Likewise, the REPEAT button (see below)
continuously plays the memorized program, not the entire disc.
NOTE:
The Random button does not function when playing a program.
To activate the Random button the unit must exit Program playback.
NOTE:
Direct track access is not available when in the PROGRAM
mode.
RANDOM Button
3
G
This instructs the CD player to play tracks from the entire disc in random
order. Once all of the selections have been played once, the disc will stop
playing, unless the REPEAT Button (see below) has been engaged, in which
case the random play will continue until the STOP button is pressed.
