Note on downloading CD disc names
from the CD players
You can download CD disc names (memos) only
from the CONTROL A1/A1 -compatible Sony CD
players. Depending on the CD player setting, it
may take several minutes to download CD disc
names (memos). For faster transmission, make the
following CD player settings.
When an CONTROL A1/A1 -compatible
Sony CD player is connected to the
receiver
Set the category for the CD function in the IR SET
list to “CD1”. When using the Sony CD changer,
set it to “CD2” (or “CD3”). Be sure to set the
category to only one of “CD1”, “CD2” or “CD3”.
You can check the current category setting by
selecting a component from the function list (see
page 65).
When multiple CONTROL A1/A1 -
compatible Sony CD players are connected
to the receiver
When you use two CD players, set the
COMMAND MODE selector on the back panel of
the CD players to “CD1” or “CD2,” respectively,
and set the category in the IR SET list to match the
corresponding player’s COMMAND MODE
selector position (see page 66). When you use three
CD players, set the COMMAND MODE selector to
“CD1,” “CD2,” or “CD3,” respectively, and set the
category in the IR SET list to match the
corresponding player’s COMMAND MODE
selector position.
When using the Sony CD changer, be sure to set to
“CD2” or “CD3”.
When setting category for the CD players, do not
skip the number or select the same number to the
multiple players.
When an CONTROL A1/A1 -compatible
Sony CD player and a non-compatible Sony
CD player are connected to the receiver
Set the COMMAND MODE selector on the back
panel of the CONTROL A1/A1 -compatible CD
player to “CD2” and set the category in the IR SET
list for the player to “CD2” (see page 66).
Set the COMMAND MODE selector on the back
panel of the non-compatible CD player to “CD1”
and set the category in the IR SET list for the
player to “CD1” (see page 66).
When using a non-Sony CD player in
conjunction with Sony CD players
