MC-12 Basic Operation

COMMAND BANK ACTIVATION

Remote control buttons perform different commands depending on whether the Main Zone, Zone 2, Record Zone, or Shift command bank is activated. Pressing and releasing a remote control command bank selection button – MAIN, ZONE, REC, or SHIFT – activates the corresponding command bank. The selected command bank remains activated until another command bank is activated.

The command bank selection buttons themselves do not send commands to the MC-12. When pressed and released, these buttons activate the corresponding command bank. For example, pressing and releasing the SHIFT button activates the Shift command bank. When the Shift command bank is activated, pressing and releasing the DVD-1 button turns off the DVD1 input for the Main Zone.

To activate a command bank:

1.Press and release a command bank selection button to activate the desired command bank.

The command matrix that begins on the next page indicates the commands remote control buttons perform when each command bank is activated.

2.Press a remote control button to send a command to the MC-12.

The MAIN MENU SETUP DISPLAYS ON-SCREEN DISPLAY menu REMOTE STATE parameter controls the remote control command bank indicator that appears on the on-screen display. When the REMOTE STATE parameter is set to ON, a command bank indicator appears in the top-right corner of the on-screen display to indicate the last command bank from which the MC-12 received a command. A "Z" appears when the Zone 2 command bank is active. An "R" appears when Record Zone command bank is active. An "S" appears when the Shift command bank is active. No letter appears when the Main Zone command bank is active. When the REMOTE STATE parameter is set to OFF, no command bank indicator appears on the on-screen display.

Note:

Remote control command bank selection buttons should not be pressed and held.
