Preset Programming

The MZC-88 has two built-in AM/FM Tuners that allow programming of up to 10 AM or FM Stations per Tuner per Zone. Each Zone’s 
presets require programming by Tuner and by preset. Tuner Presets can only be programmed from the MZC-88 Front Panel controls. 
Programming the keypads for control of the tuners must be done in EZ-Tools.

2.  Press the AM/FM button to select AM or FM. The tuner display will indicate the band selected.
3.  Press the TUN+/- buttons to tune the station to be programmed. Left and right arrow icons will appear in the tuner display when 
 

a station is not properly tuned. A solid bar will appear when the station is properly tuned.

4.  If a FM station is noisy, press the MN/ST (mono/stereo) button to force mono reception.
5.  Press and hold the Preset Button that the currently tuned station is to be programmed to for three seconds.
6.  Repeat steps 1-5 for all presets for all zones for Tuners 1 and 2.
