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 display, 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 become active immediately after the power cable 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.
