Storing Information About CDs (Custom Files)

What You Can Do With the
Custom Files
The player can store four types of information called
"Custom Files" for each disc. Once you have stored
Custom Files for a disc, the player automatically recalls
what you have stored whenever you select the disc.
Note that Custom Files will be erased if you do not use
the player for about one month.
You can store this information:
When you use You can
Label discs with disc and track
Disc Memo (page 23)
titles* and artist names using up
to 16 characters for each entry
Group discs in up to eight groups
Group File (page 26)
to locate them easily
Delete File (page 28) Delete unwanted tracks and store
only the tracks you want
Hit List (page 29) Store the tracks you play
frequently
* You can label up to 16 tracks.
Where are Custom Files stored?
Custom Files are stored not on the disc, but in the
player's memory. It means you cannot use Custom
Files when you play the disc on another player.
If you replace discs you have filed in the
Custom Files
The Custom File information you have stored remains,
since each Custom File information is assigned to each
slot. Erase all Custom Files (Disc Memo, Delete File,
Group File and Hit List) of the old disc, then file the
new disc information in the Custom Files.
Erasing all Custom Files of all discs
Turn off the player. While holding down CLEAR, press
POWER to turn on the player. "ALL ERASE" appears
in the front panel display, and all Custom Files will be
erased after a while.
Erasing all Custom Files of a disc
Select the disc you want to clear. While holding down
CLEAR, press INPUT.

When you select a CD-TEXT disc
• The CD-TEXT information (disc title, artist name and
track titles) is stored as the Disc Memo automatically.
If an entry has more than 16 characters, the first 16
characters are stored (see also page 12).
When you replace a disc with a CD-TEXT disc, the CD-
TEXT information replaces the Custom File for the old
disc automatically.
You cannot change the Disc Memo for a CD-TEXT
disc.
• You can group CD-TEXT discs in the same way as
normal discs.
• If you connect a second player that can read the CD-
TEXT information, the CD-TEXT information is stored
as the Disc Memo automatically when you select a CD-
TEXT disc in that player. However, if the second
player is the CDP-CX250, artist names cannot be
stored.
When storing the Disc Memo and Group File
information
You might find it difficult to input all the track and disc
information of 200 discs using the controls on the player
or the remote. To make the task easier, you can use an
IBM-compatible PC keyboard (see "Storing Custom File
information using a keyboard" on page 28).

Labeling Discs (Disc Memo)

You can store the disc title, artist name and track titles
of each disc using up to 16 characters for each entry,
and have the player display the Disc Memo each time
you select the discs/tracks.
You can label discs while the front cover is open
