Other Play Methods
The letters such as
A
in the various illustrations refer to the descriptions in the “Location of Controls” section (see below).
This system deals with skipping in a variety
of ways:
≥
An anti-skip mechanism prevents skipping caused
when play speed changes due to swinging of the unit.
≥
A recovery system immediately returns the laser pick-
up to its original position if it is knocked off the track by
a strong shock.
≥
The 40-second anti-skip memory fills in interruptions
caused by bumps and vibrations.
The anti-skip system works automatically while the
system is on and cannot be canceled.
When bumps continue repeatedly
The message “SORRY” appears on the display and
sound is interrupted.
Note
!
The anti-skip memory compresses digital signals.
