CPS ( Computomatic Program Search )
CPS allows the selection and playback of any track up to 20
tracks ahead or before the one being played. This function
operates by detecting blank spaces of at least 4 seconds
between tracks. These blanks can be created by using the REC
MUTE Function.
During forward playback, press theÔ or button
repeatedly until the number of tracks to be skipped appears
in the counter display.
Use the  button to search a track ahead of the current
track, and Ô button for a track before the current track.
Notes on CPS
CPS operates by detecting and counting blanks of about 4
seconds, the standard interval between tracks. Therefore, with
the following types of tapes, search functions may not work
correctly.
... When the intervals between tracks cannot be detected.
- Intervals of less than 4 seconds.
- High levels of noise in intervals.
-Long low level sections (in classical music, etc.)
This problem can be corrected by using the REC MUTE
function.

Note:
To simplify the description, the explanation is given for "forward
playback" ( Á direction). A similar procedure should be used for
"reverse playback".
... If the required CPS number setting is exceeded by , use
the Ô button to count down the CPS number until the
required CPS number is displayed.
... When the button is pressed, the next track is counted as
"1" and when theÔ button is pressed, the current track is
counted as "1 ".
The tape is fast-wound to detect blanks between tracks until the
required track is reached. Then playback starts from the
beginning of the designated track.

Example :
To select the 3rd tune from the
current tape position, select
"CP03".
If "t" is less than 4 seconds, it
will not be counted as a blank.
In this case, designate "CP02"
instead of "CP03" to select the
3rd tune.
