Meridian System Remote MSR+ User Guide
ii Preface Preface About this guide This guide consists of the following chapters: Introduction provides a general overview of the MSR+ and explains how to install the batteries. Using the MSR+ describes how to use the MSR+ to control your Meridian equipment and other products. Programming your MSR+ describes how to program the MSR+ to control other products.
Introduction Introduction About the MSR+ Control your other equipment The MSR+ is an advanced remote control that provides a comprehensive range of commands to allow you to control every product in your Meridian system straight out of the box. You can also program it to control your other equipment.
Introduction Installing the batteries The MSR+ is supplied with four AA batteries, and these need to be installed before you can use it. • Insert the four AA batteries accordingly: Note: Dispose of used batteries thoughtfully. • Press the tab and remove the battery cover on the back of the MSR+: • Push the battery cover back into place. Low battery indicator The indicator normally lights up when you press a key. If it flashes twice after releasing a key, this indicates that the battery is low.
Using Using the MSR+ Using the MSR+ to control your Meridian equipment The following diagram gives a summary of the MSR+ commands used for controlling Meridian products: Menu keys For navigating DVD menus or editing DSP parameters Source keys Select a source CD RADIO DVD AUX Indicator Flashes when you send a command includes sensor for backlight DISC TAPE TV CABLE Transport keys For controlling a CD player, DVD player, or tuner SAT VCR 2 VCR 1 GAME OFF Power 1 2 3 Number keys For cont
Using Controlling sources The MSR+ provides 12 source keys to allow you to select one of the sources in your system. To select a source • Press the appropriate source key. The indicator will flash once to indicate that the command has been sent. Your Meridian controller will select that source. In addition, the MSR+ keys will change so that they control that source. To use your MSR+ to control a source without selecting the source on your Meridian system: • Hold down Function and press the source key.
Programming Programming your MSR+ Introduction For convenience the MSR+ provides three alternative programming options to allow you to control ‘other products’; ie products from other manufacturers: • You can look up the manufacturer of the product you want to control in the back of this manual, and specify the remote you want to mimic by entering a four digit device code on the numeric keypad.
Programming Programming options Specifying a device code The simplest way to set up the MSR+ to control another product is to enter the appropriate device code for the product. A complete list of device codes for each of the supported products is given at the back of this manual. Entering a device code erases any learnt commands for that source key. To specify a device code • Press the source key you want to use for the product; for example, TV.
Programming a key, and then flash twice and stay off when you have • To step back through the device library if you entered the code correctly: overshoot press Mute on the MSR+. Product type Code TV 1000 VCR 2000 SAT/DVB-T 3000 CTV 4000 DVD/TER 5000 CD 6000 GAME 9000 For example, for a TV enter 1000. • Point the MSR+ at the product you want to control, hold down Function, and press OFF.
Programming Learning commands The third and most flexible way of programming the MSR+ is to learn from your product’s own remote control. This allows you to control products not supported by the device library, and gives you the flexibility to assign any command to a chosen key. The MSR+ can learn up to 120 commands. If you try to program more than this the indicator will flash six times and the MSR+ exits from learning mode.
Programming • Press and release the key on the MSR+ that you want to use for a particular command. The indicator will light up to show that the MSR+ is waiting to receive the code for that command. • Press and hold down the corresponding key on the product’s remote control to transmit the command. When the command has been received and learnt correctly the indicator will flash twice and turn off. If there was a problem learning the command the indicator will flash six times.
10 Programming Resetting the MSR+ You can reset the MSR+ to the programmed state it was in when you first received it. Warning: This will erase any devices or learned commands you have programmed. • Hold down 0 and Mute simultaneously until the indicator flashes twice and stays on. • Enter the code 9990 on the numeric keypad. The indicator will turn off, and all sources are reset to their default Meridian codes.
11 Keycaps Changing the source keycaps Introduction The MSR+ is supplied with 12 standard source keycaps, corresponding to the 12 standard sources on the Meridian preamplifiers and controllers. Some additional keycaps are supplied with the MSR+ and you can substitute these for the standard keycaps to suit the particular combination of products in your system. The top row of keycaps (except OFF) can then be removed.
12 Troubleshooting Troubleshooting The indicator flashes twice after pressing any key The battery level is low. Replace the batteries as soon as possible for a new set of four AA type batteries; see Installing the batteries, page 2. The LED indicator flashes six times when attempting to program the MSR+ This indicates that the current operation you are performing was unsuccessful. For more information read the instructions for the appropriate programming procedure.
