Note on downloading CD disc names from the CD players

You can download CD disc names (memos) only from the CONTROL A1/A1-compatible Sony CD players. Depending on the CD player setting, it may take several minutes to download CD disc names (memos). For faster transmission, make the following CD player settings.

When an CONTROL A1/A1-compatible Sony CD player is connected to the receiver

Set the category for the CD function in the IR SET list to “CD1”. When using the Sony CD changer, set it to “CD2” (or “CD3”). Be sure to set the category to only one of “CD1”, “CD2” or “CD3”. You can check the current category setting by selecting a component from the function list (see page 64).

When multiple CONTROL A1/A1- compatible Sony CD players are connected to the receiver

When you use two CD players, set the COMMAND MODE selector on the back panel of the CD players to “CD1” or “CD2,” respectively, and set the category in the IR SET list to match the corresponding player’s COMMAND MODE selector position (see page 64). When you use three CD players, set the COMMAND MODE selector to “CD1,” “CD2,” or “CD3,” respectively, and set the category in the IR SET list to match the corresponding player’s COMMAND MODE selector position.

When using the Sony CD changer, be sure to set to “CD2” or “CD3”.

When setting category for the CD players, do not skip the number or select the same number to the multiple players.

When an CONTROL A1/A1-compatible Sony CD player and a non-compatible Sony CD player are connected to the receiver

Set the COMMAND MODE selector on the back panel of the CONTROL A1/A1-compatible CD player to “CD2” and set the category in the IR SET list for the player to “CD2” (see page 64).

Set the COMMAND MODE selector on the back panel of the non-compatible CD player to “CD1” and set the category in the IR SET list for the player to “CD1” (see page 64).

When using a non-Sony CD player in conjunction with Sony CD players

Program the remote to control the non-Sony CD player (see page 64).

See the sections above for settings of the Sony CD players.
