MCX-2000 Owner’s Manual

2 Move the selection (highlight) to each parameter below
and specify how you want both units to work together.
1 Synchronize receiver power ON/OFF
with the MCX-2000
Select ON if you want the AV receiver power modes to match
those of the MCX-2000. With this parameter enabled, the AV
receiver wakes up from standby mode at the same time when
the MCX-2000 wakes up and enters active mode. When the
MCX-2000 enters sleep or standby mode, the AV receiver
enters standby mode as long as its current input selection
matches the Receiver Input value specified below (therefore,
when the AV receiver is ready to play or has been playing audio
signals from the MCX-2000).
n You cannot control the MCX-2000 power modes remotely from the
AV receiver.
2
Change surround program for each Genre played
Select ON if you want to change surround programs on the
AV receiver according to what music is played on the
MCX-2000. With this parameter enabled, the Set Surround
Program command is newly available in the Submenu of the
genre list screen (see below), where you can specify which
surround program is applied to music from a specific genre.
3 Receiver input to which the MCX-2000 is connected
Select from the list an AV receiver input where you’ve
connected the MCX-2000 audio output. This parameter is
essential for integrated operations of the MCX-2000 and the
AV receiver, so be sure to select the correct input name.
n The MCX-2000 automatically recognizes the connected AV receiver
and changes available values (AV receiver input names in the list).
3 Select OK to save your settings. Now the MCX-2000 is
ready for synchronized operations with the AV receiver.
If you’ve specified to link the MCX-2000 genres to the AV
receiver surround programs, open the genre list screen by
selecting Top Menu > Library > Music Archive > Genres.
Move the selection (highlight) to each genre, and then select
the Set Surround Program command from the Submenu.
Specify a surround program from the list for the current
genre. (Available surround program names are varied
according to the AV receiver model that’s connected to the
MCX-2000.)
4 To confirm integrated operations between the units,
select the AV receiver’s current input for the MCX-2000
(Receiver input) and then try:
•Pressing the STANDBY/ON button
• Selecting a song from the music archive
n Automatic selection of a surround program is possible only when you
select an archived song, but the selected surround program is
continuously applied to other audio sources as long as they’re output
via the AV receiver. When the next (or previous) song is from a
different genre, you may experience ‘longer’ silence between the
songs, which comes from the AV receiver’s surround program
switching and is normal.
