Yamaha MCX-2000 setup guide Settings on Each Client

Settings on Each Client

1Turn on the client.

The front panel display lights up, showing the initial screen, followed by a “Connecting...” message.

nIf the client display shows the current time without backlight, it’s in sleep mode. If this is the case, press the center stick of the cursor controller. The client wakes up and shows the above message.

2The “Connecting...” message indicates the client is searching a MusicCAST server to establish a network connection. At this point, however, we have not completed any network configuration. So, when the client display shows a network icon, push the controller stick upward or downward to cancel the message. The client stops searching.

Wireless network icon (no signal)

Wired network icon (no connection)

nThe wireless network icon doesn’t appear on the MCX-C15 that supports only wired networking.

3From Top Menu, select Setup > Network > Manual Setup.

Manual Setup menu

From the above menu, select a parameter and set it up as needed.

nYou may perhaps choose manual configuration of network parameters just because you want to get on top of your MusicCAST network. It’s, however, not so practical with MusicCAST clients. They’re designed to get appropriate parameter values during automatic registration process (page 31), so manual configuration should be done to ‘edit’ retrieved settings according to your special needs.
