CD/MP3/WMA Operations

Emergency broadcast

MP3/WMA

What is MP3?

MP3 is an audio compression method and clas-

sified into audio layer 3 of MPEG standards.

This audio compression method has penetrated

into PC users and become a standard format.

If an emergency broadcast is received, all the

function mode operations are stopped.

“ALARM” appears in the display and the emer-

gency broadcast can be heard.

GCancelling an emergency broadcast

If you press the [AF] button, emergency broad-

cast reception is cancelled.

This MP3 features the original audio data com-

pression to about 10 percent of its initial size

with a high sound quality. This means that about

10 music CDs can be recorded on a CD-R disc

or CD-RW disc to allow a long listening time

without having to change CDs.

Switching the PTY display language

You can select one of 4 languages (English,

German, Swedish or French) for the PTY dis-

played in the display.

WMA is the abbreviation of Windows Media Au-

dio, an audio file format developed by Microsoft

Corporation.

2. WMA: Bit rate 48 kbps-192 kbps

G File extensions

Volume setting of TA, emergency

broadcast (ALARM) and PTY

The volume for TA, ALARM and PTY interrupts

can be set during TA, ALARM or PTY interrupt.

∗ The factory default setting is “15”.

1. Always add a file extension “.MP3” or

“.WMA” to MP3 or WMA file by using single

byte letters. If you add a file extension other

than specified or forget to add the file exten-

sion , the file cannot be played.

During a TA, ALARM or PTY interrupt, turn the

[ROTARY] knob clockwise or counterclockwise

to set the volume to the desired level (0 to 33).

∗ When the TA, ALARM or PTY interrupt ends, the

volume returns to the level it had before the inter-

rupt.

2. Files without MP3/WMA data will not play.

The indication “––:––” appears in the play

time display if you attempt to play files with-

out MP3/WMA data.

G Logical format (File system)

1. When writing MP3/WMA file on a CD-R disc

or CD-RW disc, please select “ISO9660 level

1, 2, 3 or JOLIET or Romeo” as the writing

software format. Normal play may not be pos-

sible if the disc is recorded on another format.

2. The folder name and file name can be dis-

played as the title during MP3/WMA play but

the title must be within 128 single byte alpha-

betical letters and numerals (including an ex-

tension).
