Setting the Tuner Presets

This is done via the buttons on the MCU's front panel. 29 FM, seven AM/MW and seven LW presets are available.

Step One – Put the tuner into scan mode by pressing the Mode button.

Step Two – Use the Up and Down buttons to find the station you wish to store.

Step Three – Press the Store button and the tuner will automatically display the next available

preset number.

Step Four – To store the station in this location press store. You can store the station in a differ-

ent location by using the up and down keys to select a new location and then press store.

Step Five – If you wish to store presets in another waveband (FM, MW/AM or LW) press the

Band button to select a new waveband and repeat step 4.

Step Six – Once you have stored your presets press Mode. This puts the tuner back into preset

mode. In the preset mode the and keys on the keypad skip up and down through the presets.

Erasing Tuner Presets

Erasing Tuner Presets – Only works with MCU500 Software version v2.3 or higher. (Update

your MCU software to the latest version, contact your dealer who will arrange this for a charge).

Step One – Power down the MCU

Step Two -- Hold down the ‘Store’ and ‘Mode’ buttons on the front of the MCU.

Step Three -- Power up the MCU whilst still pressing buttons.

Step Four -- The tuner LCD display will stay blank.

Step Five -- Release the buttons and the tuner LCD will return to normal.

Step Six -- The presets will now be erased, start storing new presets from preset 1.

Note – The tuner only skips through presets that have been set. If only four presets are set the

tuner will skip 1-2-3-4-1-2-3-4 and so on. If no presets are set or only one is set the tuner will not skip at all.

AV1 and AV2 naming

On the rear of the MCU small DIP switches (shown left) allow you to choose the name that appears when AV1 and AV2 sources are selected. Use the table on this page to set up your custom names.

Note: To re-name these sources the DIP switches must be changed with the MCU turned off.

1= On 0= Off 000= Default

Adding additional source equipment

Connect new source equipment to the source inputs on the rear of the MCU500 using good quality phono/RCA interconnect cables.

Installing IR codes for your new source

First teach the LRC500 learning remote control the IR commands for your new source. See the LRC500 manual for further details.

Next use the cloning operation to download the new codes to the MCU500. To perform this connect the LRC500 to the MCU via the mini-jack to mini-DIN cloning cable. The IR indicator on the MCU will illuminate showing cloning is active.

Press the TRANSMIT button on the LRC500 for three seconds. You will hear a beep and the transmit mode screen will appear.

Press each flashing number in order until they have disappeared. The device screen displays the ‘Tx’ icon.

Press the LRC500’s button to start the transmitting operation.

The LRC500 ‘Tx’ icon and the MCU’s IR indicator will flash.

When the data is transfered the ‘Tx’ icon will stop flashing.

Exit the transmit mode by pressing the LEARN button. Three beeps will be heard.
