Timer Function

The MCX-2000 and clients incorporate a timer that enables song playback at a specified time.  You can program up to ten playback 
timer instances for each MusicCAST device.

• Using the Timer Playback

Connecting External Devices

Connect all relevant devices referring to the section “Panel Descriptions” and the setup illustration below.  Make sure each device is 
turned off before making connections.

• The MCX-2000 is designed to connect to a TV monitor for easy operation.  Though you can still operate the unit while viewing its front panel dis-

play, a large TV display offers more operation information at a time.

• The MCX-2000 accepts a generic PS/2 keyboard.  This enables faster, more convenient operation than the remote control or front-panel buttons, 

especially when you edit song information or other text data.

• The MCX-2000 is designed to be turned on immediately after the power cord is connected to the AC power source.  Make sure to connect to the 

AC power source only in the last step after all other devices are connected.

Connecting to the AC Power

When relevant external devices are all connected, turn on these devices first, and then connect the MCX-2000 power cord to the AC 
power source.

The front panel STANDBY/ON button indicator will light up in green.  On the TV monitor, switch the video input source to the MCX-2000 
video output (VIDEO or S-Video).  If the following screen is shown on the TV display, connection to the TV monitor has been successful.

All necessary operations can be called up by selecting a menu item from the Top Menu.  Since you’ll learn how to make sure each 
connected device is working properly in the relevant sections, simply continue reading this manual in the order given.

n

If the indicator light of the STANDBY/ON button turns amber, press the button to continue working on the MCX-2000.  The unit is designed to 
automatically go into an energy saving mode if no operations have been performed for a while.  Read the following column for more information.
