Language
1 From the User Interface menu, select Language.
2 You have just one parameter, Language, for this setting.
Select your preferred user interface language from the
list.
3 When you select OK, the “Saving...” message is shown.
When you return to the User Interface menu, confirm
the language has changed. The MCX-2000 afterward
uses the language specified here to show text
messages in each operation screen (and the front panel
display).
PS/2 Keyboard
1 From the User Interface menu, select Language.
2 You have just one parameter, Keyboard Type, for this
setting. Select from the list the language type of your
PS/2 keyboard that’s to be connected to the PS/2 port
on the MCX-2000 front panel.
3 When you select OK, the “Saving...” message is shown.
The MCX-2000 afterward recognizes a PS/2 keyboard
connected to the PS/2 port, as specified here.
n Be sure to connect your PS/2 keyboard while the MCX-2000 is in
sleep or standby mode. If you connect it while the MCX-2000 is
active, both units may be damaged. If your keyboard is already
connected, the selected keyboard type immediately becomes valid.
(You don’t need to restart the MCX-2000.)
Selecting Playback Options
Select any desired audio source at any time, or program your
own playlists with any combination of songs from the music
archive — these are the best part of listening experience on
the MCX-2000. You can use two playback options to make
such listening experience, literally, more seamless.
1 Select Top Menu > Setup > Playback.
2 Change each parameter value as needed.
1 At power ON, automatically start playback of the last
song played
With this parameter set to ON, the MCX-2000 automatically
starts playing the last played (or selected) song when it wakes
up from sleep or standby mode. With OFF, automatic playback
doesn’t occur (factory setting).
n The last ‘song’ is namely the last ‘audio source’ played or selected.
With this parameter set to ON, the MCX-2000 memorizes what was
selected or played from which audio source. For example, if the last
song was from the music archive, the MCX-2000 remembers which
category, group or playlist the current song has been selected from. If
the last audio source is the radio, the unit remembers which radio
station and which radio type was selected. If the last song was from a
CD, the unit remembers which track from what CD was played. In
fact, automatic playback will occur only when the same audio source
is ‘still’ available when the MCX-2000 becomes active.
So, automatic playback will not occur if you have set a second CD
after listening the first and, without selecting or playing from the
second, put the MCX-2000 in standby mode, and then awake the
unit back again.
2 Adjust the volume level automatically
With this parameter set to ON, the MCX-2000 plays archived
songs at an average volume level. You can use this parameter to
compensate the volume difference of songs from different
artists, albums or genres when playing them together. But, there
may be cases a loud rock song is turned down or a calm
classical tune becomes loud. With OFF, the MCX-2000 plays
each archived song at its original volume level (factory setting).
n Volume change with this parameter is valid only with playback on the
MCX-2000, and this parameter setting doesn’t affect streamed music
to clients. (Each client has a similar parameter at Setup > Auto Level
Control.)
3 When you select OK, the “Saving...” message is shown.
The MCX-2000 afterward plays archived songs as
specified here.
