Tascam CD-400U Media Player

This module will control the Tascam CD-400U when fitted with an IF-E100 Ethernet module.

Configuration

Enter the IP address, and port of the media player. If using CD-400U DAB, enable the DAB check box.

It is recommended to disable APS on the CD-400U as when in power save mode the network interface is disabled.

NOTE

This module has been tested with firmware 1.42 / 0.38. It is recommended to use this or a more recent release.

Testing has revealed the unit may become non responsive to network control when a damaged CD-DA is loaded. If this occurs, it can be resolved by changing device on the unit front panel, and then forcing the companion module to reconnect.

Actions

  • Stop

STOP puts the controlled device into the stop state. If the mode is FM, AM or DAB, this command switches between frequency and preset modes.

  • Play

Play puts the controlled device into playback mode.

  • Pause

READY puts the controlled device into playback standby mode.

  • Search

When the source is CD, USB or SD, SEARCH puts the controlled device into the search playback mode. The controlled device remains in the search playback mode until it receives a command such as STOP, PLAY, or READY. When the source is FM or AM, this command automatically searches for received frequencies in the higher or lower direction.

  • Eject

EJECT ejects a CD Media from the controlled device. If the device selected on the controlled device is not CD, this command ejects the CD Media.

  • Skip

SKIP allows the controlled device to skip a track. If the mode is FM or AM and a preset number is not displayed (Frequency mode), this command changes the received frequency. If the mode is FM or AM and a preset number is displayed (Preset mode), this command moves to the previous or next preset number.

  • Direct Track Search Preset

DIRECT TRACK SEARCH PRESET performs a search for a track on the controlled device by specifying the track number. If a track search is performed while the controlled device is in a stop state, the controlled device remains in the stop state at the beginning of the selected track. If a track search is performed while the controlled device is in a state other than the above state, the controlled device switches back to the state where it was before starting a search and remains in that state. When the source is AM, FM or DAB, this performs selection of a preset station by specifying the preset number.

  • Clear

  • Enter

When a message is displayed, ENTER replies Yes.

  • Back

BACK works as same as pressing the main unit BACK [PAIRING] button. When the Menu screen is open, BACK returns to the Home Screen. When a Menu setting screen is open, BACK goes up one menu level. When the current source is USB or SD and the play area is folder (the folder icon shown), this move up one folder level.
