In a system of Meridian products, one of the products
acts as the controller for the system, receiving infra-red
commands from the MSR+ and then, if appropriate,
relaying them to the other products via the Comms link.
The following automatic setup procedure should be
used to set up the Comms correctly between several
products:
Connect one of the DIN COMMS sockets on the
back panel of the 808.3 to one of the COMMS
sockets on another G Series, 500 Series, or 800
Series unit, using the Comms leads provided with the
products.
The sequence in which you connect the units is not
important.
Switch all the units to standby.
Press
Clear
(remote).
Each unit will display:
Auto
One unit will then be designated as the controller.
The display shows:
Controller
•
•
•
All the other units will be configured as non-controllers.
The displays show:
Not Con.
If for any reason the automatic setup does not work,
make sure you are operating the remote from a
position where all the units can receive the infra-red,
and try again.
If this fails:
Restore the default operation by selecting one of the
standard types; see
Choosing a standard setting
,
page iii.
Do not, under any circumstances, connect any
equipment other than Meridian G Series or 800
Series to any socket marked COMMS on the back
of the product.
