PROGRAMMED PLAY

OPERATION

Use the Numeric Keys to directly access a track. If the disc is organized into folders, press the Folder +/– Buttons to open a folder. Additional presses skip to the next or previous folder. Within a folder you may search through the tracks more quickly by pressing the +10 and –10 Numeric Keys.

USB

The MAS 100/MAS 110 is equipped with two USB Ports, one on the rear panel of the controller, and one on the right side panel, near the front of the controller. The front port is selected as USB A, and the rear port is USB B. Each press of the USB Source Selector toggles between the two ports.

The system is compatible with flash and hard-disk USB drives formatted in the FAT32 file format. The system will recognize up to 9999 files in the MP3 or WMA formats, which may be organized into folders.

NOTE: Although many MP3 music players may be connected to the USB Port, an iPod should not be connected here. To enjoy audio programs stored on an iPod, purchase The Bridge II docking station (included with the some versions of MAS 110 system), connect it to its proprietary connector on the controller and dock the iPod. Do not connect a personal computer or any peripherals to either USB Port.

When installing the system, make sure to leave sufficient room on the right side to safely accommodate a USB device.

When the USB device is inserted, the total number of files will be dis- played after a delay to allow the device to be read.

Playback and navigation are the same as for an audio or data CD, as described above.

It is recommended that you stop playback before removing a USB device, although it is not necessary to turn off the system.

PROGRAMMED PLAY

Playlists of selected tracks may be programmed for the current audio or data CD or USB device. Playlists are not available for other sources. To program a playlist, play must be stopped.

Press the Program Button to begin Program mode. To exit without programming a playlist, press the Stop Button.

Add tracks to the playlist by using the Skip/Scan Transport Controls or the Numeric Keys to select the track, then pressing the Program Button to enter the selection. Add up to 30 tracks.

If you make a mistake, you may clear the track just programmed by pressing the Clear Button.

Press Play to play the playlist, or Stop to save the playlist without playing it. The system will remain in Program mode.

To delete the playlist and exit Program mode:

If the playlist is playing, simply press the Program Button to delete the entire playlist, and the current track will continue playing.

If the playlist is stopped, press the Clear Button.

Playlists may be edited:

To add a track to the playlist, press the Stop Button, then the Program Button. Proceed as described above.

To view the tracks in a playlist without making changes, stop play and press the Check Button. Each press advances to the next track in the playlist. To exit Check mode, press the Play Button.

To delete a single track from the playlist, stop play and press the Check Button repeatedly until the desired track appears. Press the Clear Button.

Playlists are lost when the system is turned off or the disc or USB device is removed. The playlist will also be lost when the source is changed.

Press the Bridge Source Selector to select The Bridge II as the source. When a compatible iPod is docked (see page 4), a message will appear in the front-panel display that The Bridge II is connected.

The display will switch to the navigation menus, and the menu screen on the iPod itself will be replaced by a “check mark” graphic and a mes- sage reading “OK to Disconnect.”

When you see the “OK to Disconnect” message displayed, the iPod may be operated using the front-panel or remote controls.

To navigate the menus, press the 7/3 Buttons to scroll through a list. Press the Enter Button to select a menu item. Pressing the Enter Button while an audio track is displayed will begin play. Press the Back Button to return to the previous menu level.

The transport controls work as they do for CDs:

To pause or restart play, press the Play/Pause Button.

To search forward or reverse through a track, press and hold the Skip/Scan Forward or Reverse Button.

To skip forward or reverse through the tracks, tap the Skip/Scan Forward or Reverse Button.

To play the tracks in the current playlist or category in random order (“Shuffle” mode), press the Random Button. You will toggle through Mode 1 (Shuffle Songs), mode 2 (Shuffle Album) and OFF mode.

Any Repeat Play settings on the iPod will be cancelled.

During normal play, select the Now Playing menu option to view the sta- tus. The upper line of the Message Display will show the elapsed track time and remaining track time. The song, artist and album information will scroll on the lower line, if available.

It is recommended that you stop playback before undocking the iPod, although it is not necessary to turn off the system. However, the system should be turned off before connecting

or disconnecting The Bridge II.
