How To Change The Input Setup - McIntosh MX134 Owner's Manual

How to Change the Input Setup

The MX134 has eleven Analog Audio Inputs numbered 1
through 11, six Digital Audio Inputs lettered A through F
and two Component Video Inputs numbered 1 and 2. These
inputs already have assigned titles and associations that
will allow for immediate hookup, operation and enjoyment.
If these starting assignments and associations do not match
up with components in your system, they may be reas-
signed from the default settings. The following example
will illustrate how to rename the AUX Input to DVD2 and
assign it a Digital Input. When the Zone A or B Input Se-
lector is rotated to select what was originally the AUX In-
put, DVD2 will now appear on the Front Panel Alphanu-
meric Display. The Video Power Control, Video Converter
and Component Video can also be set for each Input.
Notes: 1. The Source Input Number 0 will always be assigned
to the Tuner Input and can not be reassigned.
2. Unused Inputs may be switched Off so that they will
not appear when rotating through the input source
choices using the Zone A or Zone B Input Selector and
also will not be available when using the Remote
Control or Keypad.
3. Each Analog Audio/Video Input must have a unique
title (type and number) assigned to it.
4. Multiple Inputs of the same type must be assigned
consecutively. Example, there can not be a DVD3
Input without first having DVD1 and DVD2 inputs.
1. Press and hold the Front Panel SETUP Push-button ap-
proximately three seconds to enter the Setup Mode.
The word SETUP will appear on the MX134 Front
Panel Display and the MAIN SYSTEM SETUP Menu
will appear on the Monitor/TV screen. Refer to figure

the Remote Control, select Input Setup on the On-

followed by pressing the Left

Setup.
If the re-ordering of Titles is de-
sired to place frequently used

Control in step five instead of
an input name. The On-Screen

for a TITLE. Refer to figure 19.
