1System Information

You can view the current activity and status of the MCX-2000 on the system side. Use this when you want to confirm the firmware version, usage of the internal hard drive, MP3 conversion activity of recorded audio sources, and supported Yamaha AV receiver products.

2System Reset

You can access here a function to initialize all MCX-2000 parameters and recall their factory settings. Use this function when the MCX-2000 became unstable or when firmware update is applied to the unit. If you want to reconfigure your MusicCAST network because you got a new network environment (after move or relocation), initialize only network parameters, not the entire MCX-2000 system (page 100).

3System Update

If you got the latest MCX-2000 firmware from Yamaha, you can use this function to update the unit.

4Lock Function

Want to limit access to the MCX-2000? Then use this password-lock feature to prevent others from management operations on the MCX-2000. Lock function is especially useful if you’re using the MCX-2000 in a public space.
