OVERVIEW
There are two possibilities for programming the DSS in a PX-600 system, using your choice of source inputs. Each method
has its pros and cons, but one of them should work for your particular client’s needs. Follow the examples below to program
a DSS to suit the customers needs.
SAMPLE # 1: (SEE FIGURE 1, HIGH-CAPACITY CD OPTION)
Caution: using this method will take away the option of having a High-capacity CD player in the system with group control.
Additionally, the response time between changing channels tends to run a little slower. The advantage to using this method
is that you do not have to use any of the DSS program features, leaving them open for their intended use.
To start the programmingTo start the programming
1) Go to LEARN IR.
2) Go to CD
3) Go to OTHER HIGH CAP (If the unit does have discrete IR power, you must first go to LOW CAP and enter a power
command).
4) Follow the steps outlined below to program your presets (groups), up to six.
5) The STOP command is not used. Leave this address in memory empty.
6) At SKIP TRACK, enter the DSS code for “channel up”.
7) Enter the number of presets (groups), up to 6. This sample is based on a total of 30 stations, with presets set at 5 station
increments. The “delay” command is optional, as this will add a .7 second delay between commands if necessary to
run the macro correctly. It depends on your particular unit. You may want to try it without the delay first. If there is more
than one group, make sure GROUP 1 is the same as the “PLAY” macro .The first press and hold will go to GROUP 2.
