Controlling CD Changer (Optional)

An optional 6-disc or 12-disc CD Changer may be
connected to the CDA-7878R if it is Ai-NET
compatible. With a CD Changer connected to the
Ai-NET input of the CDA-7878R, the CD Changer
will be controllable from the CDA-7878R.
Using the KCA-400C (Multi-Changer Switching
device) or the KCA-410C (Versatile Link Terminal)
multiple changers can be controlled by the CDA-
7878R.
See the Multi-Changer Selection section on page
23 for selecting the CD Changers.

NOTES

The controls on the CDA-7878R for CD Changer
operation are operative only when a CD Changer is
connected.

The “changer” indicator illuminates in the CD Changer
mode.

The DVD changer (optional) is controllable from the
CDA-7878R as well as the CD changer.
