Assigning a custom label to an input:
1. Using the example from the previous page for
configuring an input, repeat steps 1 through 5.
2. When “CUSTOM” appears in the display press
the “OK” button. The display will show
“……………………………” .
3. Rotate the volume control clockwise to scroll
through the 26 letters of the English alphabet,
first in uppercase and then lowercase, followed
by the numbers 0 through 9, and finally several
miscellaneous symbols including the space
character. When you see the letter, number or
symbol you wish to use, press “OK” to select it
and then repeat this step for the next character.
4. You must assign all 8 characters when creating
a custom input label; If your label requires only
5 characters, you will need to input a blank
space for the remaining 3 characters. Note: If
you decide to create a custom input label for
MiND, it must be spelled exactly as it appears
here – the software is case sensitive.
5. Once you’ve filled the last position, press”OK”
and “SAVED” will briefly appear in the display
followed by “INPUTS”.
6. Press the “SETUP” button to exit from the Setup
menu.

rotating the volume control until “INFRARED”
appears in the display.
2. Press “OK” and “NORMAL” will appear in the
display.
3. To disable the MOON 740P’s front panel IR
sensor, rotate the volume control to alternate
from “NORMAL” to “DISABLED” .
4. Press “OK” and “SAVED” will appear briefly
in
the display followed by “INFRARED”

menu.
The MOON 740P is equipped with a rear mounted
IR input for use with aftermarket wired infrared
remote control receivers. In the event that you want
control the MOON 740P with a universal remote
control and NOT the one included (FRM-3), you can
change the RC-5 remote control system codes. This
procedure is recommended when you have a large
custom install setup that uses multiple integrated
amplifiers and/or preamplifiers that operate on the
RC-5 standard and you need to make each
component unique w.r.t. remote control operation –
up to 4 components. Before making the following
change, you should have a basic understanding
how to program a universal remote control. The
following example shows how to change the IR
codes that the MOON 740P will recognize:
