Identifying the type of centre unit you intend to connect
The setting of the PROTOCOL switch and the operation used to switch to AUX sound will differ depending on the type of centre unit (cassette receiver, CD receiver, and so on) you are going to connect. Find out which of the following groups your centre unit belongs to, then consult the relevant section of this manual.
Group A
This group covers centre units with disc changer control, where the source selection does not allow you to switch the disc changer between 1 and 2.
■Group B
This group covers centre units with disc changer control, where the source selection allows you to switch between 1 and 2, where the manual instructs you to set the O-N switch on the disc changer to "O", or where the O-N switch operation is not covered.
Group C
This group covers centre units with disc changer control, where the source selection allows you to switch between 1 and 2, where the manual instructs you to set the O-N switch on the disc changer to "N".
Group D
This group covers units released on to the market in or after 1999, where the manual covers AUX mode under source selection.
Setting the PROTOCOL switch
You will need to set the PROTOCOL switch according to the centre unit you wish to connect.
CAUTION
Turn the centre unit power off before operating the PROTOCOL switch.
If the unit you are connecting belongs to Group A or Group B
Set the PROTOCOL switch to the "O" position.
CAUTION
If you move the PROTOCOL switch to the "N" position, the switching unit will become inoperable. (If the disc changer you have connected has an O-N switch, set it to the "O" position also.)
If the unit you are connecting belongs to Group C or Group D
Set the PROTOCOL switch to the "N" position.
CAUTION
-
If you move the PROTOCOL switch to the "O" position, then even if you have connected a disc changer supporting CD text, the CD text and the disc name (DNPS) will fail to be displayed on the centre unit. (If the connected disc changer has an O-N switch, set it to the "N" position also.)
-
If the disc changer you are connecting does not have an O-N switch, you will not be able to use the disc name setting (DNPS) function.


Unit group A
Select the disc changer to be controlled with the controller②. When the disc changer mode is selected with the source button, playing begins.

Disc changer 2
Controller②
You can switch between disc changers 1 and 2 by the switching unit.

- When the disc changer number is changed and play begins, the disc changer number data before it was switched may be shown temporarily on the display of the centre unit.
Unit groups B/C/D
Each time the SRC button (or CH button) on the centre unit is pressed, the disc auto changer mode changes between disc changer modes 1 and 2. When the desired disc changer number is selected, playing starts.
