The RCU-MP3 kit was designed to upgrade your ROWE/AMI Combo Jukebox to play MP3 music files from a
hard disk drive or Compact Flash memory card . Any combo jukebox that uses the 4-07773-xx Central Control
Computer can be upgraded. This includes models R -90, R-91, R-92, R-93 and R-94. The player automatically
adapts to your jukebox offering support of 6 discs with each having up to 32 tracks or more. Most non-combo
jukeboxes can also be upgraded by replacing the CCC EPROM program with a combo support version.
The player works with any 44-pin ATA/IDE 2.5 inch hard disk drive from 2GB and up having a maximum height
of 9.5mm, uses the FAT32 filesystem and supports both long and short filenames. The player supports all
layer-III (MP3) encodings at fixed and variable bit-rates up to and including 320 kbits/s. A 24-bit DAC provides
96dB of audio dynamic range.
The kit comes with a USB external HDD circuit board and the MP3-DSP digital subsystem player circuit board.
The USB external HDD adds a drive letter to your computer and is used to transfer MP3 files onto your disk
drive.
CD Initialization
To perform the CD initialization, place the jukebox service switch into the SERVICE position then enter 777 on
the keypad. When initialization starts, four dashes will appear on the CCC display. When the initialization is
complete, the CCC display will go blank.
Playing MP3 Songs
On a combo jukebox, CD's are selected by entering a four digit number. The first digit is always "5" for CD
selections. The second digit is the disc # less one. To select disc "1", you would enter "0". The last two digits
are the track # of the song you wish to play. For example, if you wanted to play disc 3, track 9, you would enter
"5209" on the keypad.
