Additional Features

These convenience features add extra functionality to the RCX-1500, 
including the ability to memorize a group of tracks to be played, to repeat 
a disc, a program, or a 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.

PROGRAM Button (remote only)

This button, labeled PROG, allows you to memorize more than 20 
tracks on the current disc for playback in a specific order. For example, 
you could instruct the RCX-1500 to play track 5, followed by track 3, 
followed by track 8. 

Note: Programmed play lists cannot be set up with MP3 and WMA 
discs.

To begin a program:

1. Insert a disc in the front panel slot. The RCX-1500 will read the contents 
of the disc. You may press the PLAY 

/

 button if you would like to listen 

to the tracks while you program them.

2. Press the PROGRAM button the remote control. The PROGRAM indicator 
will light up in the Display, along with “P:00” indicating that the unit is 
waiting for the first track to be memorized.

3. 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.

Once you have memorized a play list, the RCX-1500 remains in PROGRAM 
mode until you eject the disc or press the STOP button twice in succession. 
If you press the PLAY button, 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 Play feature cannot be used when using the 
Programmed Play feature.
