Display of playback position

During playback, the approximate playback position in 
the track is displayed on the character display area of the 
display window in the form of a 12-dot bar. The number 
of square dots in this bar increases the further playback 
progresses. The following example shows that about 2/3 of 
the track has been played back. 

When the time display in the display window is the track 
remaining mode (

REMAIN

), all of the square dots light 

at the beginning of the track, and decrease as playback 
progresses.
