BEFORE USING  
Do not place objects on top  
Cautions on handling batteries  
Misuse of the batteries can result in electrolyte leakage,  
rupturing, corrosion, etc.  
Refrain from placing any objects on top of the player.  
Bear in mind the following points when using batteries.  
Cautions on handling power cord  
Remove the batteries from the remote control unit if the  
unit is not going to be used for a prolonged period (a month  
or more).  
Do not touch the power cord with wet hands.  
When disconnecting the power cord, always make sure  
that you take hold of the plug. Yanking out or bending the  
cord can damage it and/or cause electric shocks or a fire.  
Do not use an old battery together with a new one.  
Insert the batteries while ensuring that their  
and  
poles  
are properly aligned with the corresponding markings on  
the remote control unit.  
Get into the habit of disconnecting the power plug before  
leaving home.  
Batteries with the same shape may have different voltages.  
Do not use different types of batteries together.  
Do not attempt repairs yourself  
If electrolyte has leaked, thoroughly wipe the inside of the  
battery compartment, and then insert new batteries.  
Refrain from lubricating the player: doing so can cause  
malfunctioning.  
Only qualified engineers with specialized expertise are  
authorized to repair the pick-up and parts inside the player.  
Precautions  
In winter, droplets of water form on the insides of the  
windows of a heated room: this is called condensation.  
This CD player uses an optical lens, so the condensation  
may form in the following cases.  
- In a room immediately after the heating has been turned  
on  
- In a room where the humidity level is high  
- When the player has been suddenly brought from a cold  
location into a warm room  
Since, in cases like this, the track numbers may not be  
read and the player is prevented from operating properly,  
wait about 30 minutes, and then operate the player.  
This player may cause interference on a tuner or TV set. If  
this is the case, place it further away from the tuner or TV  
set.  
Compact discs have much less noise than analog records  
and hardly any noise is heard before play starts. Bear in  
mind, therefore, that if the volume control on the amplifier  
is set too high, you will risk damaging other audio  
components.  
This player is designed to play music CDs only. It cannot  
play CD-ROMs used with personal computers, game CDs,  
video CDs or DVDs (video/audio).

3. FEATURES  
Play of unfinalized CD-R and CD-RW discs  
Manual cue function  
supported  
By setting the play start position in advance, play can  
always be started at the preset position.  
The PMD325 can play even partially once-written CD-R  
and CD-RW discs that could not be played by conventional  
CD players. Since unfinalized discs which have some  
recording time left can be played, even partially edited  
discs can be played.  
End warning function  
When the end of the track being played is approached,  
the end warning indicator starts flashing to signal that the  
end of the track now playing is near.  
MP3 play and ID3 tag display supported  
The PMD325 supports not only the play of CD-R and CD-  
RW discs recorded with MP3 files but also the ID3 tags  
which are the text information of MP3 files so that text giving  
the track information or artistsnames can be displayed.  
(Japanese characters cannot be displayed.)  
Wide range of play modes  
Among the many play modes featured by the PMD325 are  
single play (STOP, NEXT, RECUE), programmed play,  
repeat play (ALL, 1-track, A-B) and auto pause.  
External control interfaces  
CD-TEXT displays supported  
The PMD325 features RS-232C, parallel control I/O and  
remote I/O as external control interfaces.  
Pitch control function  
The PMD325 comes with a pitch control function that  
enables the play speed (pitch) to be varied in a -12% to  
+12% range. This is useful when practicing to play a  
musical instrument.  
Timer play supported  
CS4396 high-performance D/A converter (made  
by Cirrus Logic)  
Quick replay function  
High-linearity play is achieved by oversampling the PCM  
signals to 128fs inside the D/A converter and combining  
dynamic element matching (DEM) with multi-element  
switched capacitors.  
By means of a single-touch action, the quick replay function  
returns play to a position, which is a number of seconds  
(setting range: 1 to 30 seconds) that has been set, before  
the position of the track now playing. This enables you to  
return and listen again to the section a little before the  
position where the track is now playing.  
Digital and analog areas configured separately  
The digital area consisting of the servo, decoder and  
microcomputer circuitry is mounted en bloc on the CD  
mechanism PCB away from the analog (audio circuitry)  
area.  
This keeps out the pulsive noise generated from the digital  
area and yield a pure sound reproduction.  
End monitor function  
By means of a single-touch action, the end monitor function  
plays the end part of the track now playing for the duration  
(setting range: 1 to 30 seconds) which has been set. This  
makes it easy to check the end part of the track which is  
now being played.  
Auto cue function  
This enables play to start automatically from the position  
where the sound begins.

This means that discs with recorded CD-TEXT can be played  
in the same way as in the past on existing CD players but the  
text information can be viewed only when they are played on  
a player that supports CD-TEXT.  
This player automatically identifies whether a disc supports

OTHER FUNCTIONS  
CR-R/CD-RW disc play  
MP3  
This player can play CD-R/CD-RW discs as well as discs  
available on the market recorded using MP3 files (*).  
The ID3 tag (*) is supported by this player. The album title,  
track title and name of the artist can be displayed for the  
track (file) on which the ID3 tag information has been recorded.  
In addition to conventional music CDs and CD-R (recordable)  
discs, this player can also play CD-RW (rewritable) discs. It  
also supports the unfinalized discs that cannot be played by  
regular CD players.  
* MP3refers to music data which has been compressed by  
a file format known as MPEG-1 Audio Layer 3.Files with  
the .mp3or .MP3extension are called MP3 files.  
Playing unfinalized CD-R/CD-RW discs  
CD players normally play only those discs on which the  
TOC information (*) has been recorded. This means that  
in order for a CD player to play a CD-R/CD-RW disc with  
music recordings, the disc had to be finalizedby writing  
the TOC information onto it.  
Discs for which this finalizing job has not been done are  
called unfinalized discs, and this player is designed to  
support the play of these unfinalized discs as well.  
Consequently, even CD-R/CD-RW discs on which more  
material is to be recorded can be enjoyed without further  
ado using this player.  
* ID3 tagrefers to a format which adds the album title, track  
titles, names of the artists and other text information to the  
MP3 files.  
MP3 file playback  
Playing albums in sequence  
1. As with a music CD, place the disc recorded using the  
MP3 files on the disc tray, and retract the disc tray.  
2. Press the  
button on the player or the button on the  
remote control unit.  
* TOCstands for the table of contents which contains  
the total number of tracks, the total play time and other  
such information on the disc. This information has been  
recorded on the inner circumference area of the disc.  
Play now starts in sequence from the first album (on a  
folder by folder basis (*)). (See next section.)  
With a disc recorded with MP3 files, it takes about 40  
seconds after the players power has been turned on  
for the players system to be switched before initial play.  
Precautions for unfinalized CD-R/CD-RW  
Selecting and playing albums (folders)  
Select the desired album (on a folder by folder basis (*)) using  
discs  
the  
or  
button on the player or remote control unit.  
Take care not to scratch or dirty the area near the innermost  
circumference of unfinalized CD-R/CD-RW discs.  
Scratches, dirt or other abnormalities in this area may make  
it impossible for the disc to be read.  
Play now starts in sequence from the selected album. The  
album number appears on the display.  
(AL xxx)  
On unfinalized CD-R/CD-RW discs recorded using a CD  
recorder for audio applications, provisional TOC information  
is recorded in the PMA area (*) which is further inside from  
the TOC information area. This player supports unfinalized  
discs by reading the information in the PMA area, but  
because this area is extremely narrow, any scratches, dirt  
or other abnormalities here may make it impossible for discs  
to be read.  
On some discs, this area may be very difficult to read. In  
cases like this, use the disc after using a CD recorder to  
do the finalizing. It is recommended that the finalizing be  
done before scratches or dirt makes it hard for the discs to  
be read.  
Displaying the ID3 tag information  
The following display appears when the TEXT button on the  
remote control unit is pressed while playing an MP3 file disc  
on which the ID3 tag information has been recorded.  
During play  
Title of track xx now playing  
(The text display is automatically  
switched to the time display.)

Time display  
* PMAstands for program memory area, and it refers to  
the area where the provisional contents information such  
as the number of tracks and play times recorded on the  
CD-R/CD-RW discs is recorded. Discs cannot be played  
by this player unless the PMA has been recorded properly.  
This player supports the discs which have been recorded  
by any recorder that complies with the Orange Bookof  
CD-R/CD-RW standards.  
The player can play only those discs recorded in the music  
format (CD-DA) or using MP3 files.  
If there is not much recording time, it may be difficult for  
the data to be read out, and it may cause error.  
When the player is to play a CD-RW disc or unfinalized  
Those items among the display information which were not  
recorded are skipped, and only the recorded items are  
displayed.  
CD-R/CD-RW disc, it automatically recognizes the type of  
disc, and changes some of its internal settings to suit the  
disc concerned. For this reason, the disc reading process  
will take a little longer compared with regular music CDs  
or CD-R discs.

Status transmission  
The status packets have a fixed data length of 4 bytes.  
ASCII codes from 0x00 to 0x7f are used to transmit serial  
data. For this reason, the ASCII codes are converted into  
HEX data before the data is set in the data packets and  
transmitted. CR (0x0d) is added as the data packet delimiter.  
The wiring requirements for a 9 pin to 9 pin serial connection,  
are a male to female straight cable.
