Meridian 808.2 CD Player
In a system of Meridian products, one of the products 
acts as the controller for the system, receiving infra-red 
commands from the MSR+ and then, if appropriate, 
relaying them to the other products via the Comms link.
The following automatic setup procedure should be 
used to set up the Comms correctly between several 
products:
Connect one of the DIN COMMS sockets on the 
back panel of the CD player to one of the COMMS 
sockets on another G Series, 500 Series, or 800 
Series unit, using the Comms leads provided with the 
products.
The sequence in which you connect the units is not 
important.
Switch all the units to standby.
Press Clear (remote).
Each unit will display:
Auto
One unit will then be designated as the controller.
The display shows:
Controller
•
•
•
All the other units will be configured as non-controllers.
The displays show:
Not Con.
If for any reason the automatic setup does not work, 
make sure you are operating the remote from a position 
where all the units can receive the infra-red, and try 
again.
If this fails:
Restore the default operation by selecting one of the 
standard types; see 
Choosing a standard setting,
page 30.
Do not, under any circumstances, connect any
equipment other than Meridian G Series or 800
Series to any socket marked COMMS on the back
of the product.
