The
TIMER
switch besides the transport keys on the
front panel allows the DV-RA1000HD to start playback
of the loaded disc automatically when power is sup-
plied.
If the DV-RA1000HD is in ODD mode or in HDD
mode with a disc already loaded, the unit plays the proj-
ect that was open prior to the last shut down, or from
the last position if resume playback is selected. (See
“Resume playback” on page 24.)
Repeat settings (see “Repeat playback” on page 31) for
the whole disc or single track are memorized when the
power is turned off and on again, but the A-B mode and
the A and B points are not memorized.
CAUTION
When using this function, remember to shut down
the unit properly (see “Shut down” on page 19)
before turning off the power, to avoid possible data
loss.
