Some of the steps may not be necessary for your system; if so, proceed to the next step. Preparations Use MTX-MRX Editor to make the required settings before you actually install and connect the equipment. 1. Prepare a computer in which to install MTXMRX Editor. 2. Install MTX-MRX Editor in your computer. For details on installation, refer to "MTX Setup Manual." 3. Specify the IP address and subnet mask of your computer. Enter "192.168.0.253" as the IP address and "255.255.255.0" as the subnet mask. 4. If you want to play back music or other audio files from the MTX3 itself, prepare an SD memory card. Copy the audio files to your SD memory card. For details on SD memory card handling, refer to "Using the MTX3 to play audio files saved on an SD memory card" (page 19). 5. Start up MTX-MRX Editor. For details on installing and using MTX-MRX Editor, refer to "MTX Setup Manual" and "MTX-MRX Editor User Guide." 6. Set up the entire MTX/MRX system as directed by the wizard. Make settings such as the number of connected MTX/XMV/ Exi8/EXo8/DCP devices, and the UNIT ID and YDIF mode (Cascade mode or Distribution mode) for each device. For details on YDIF, refer to "Features" (page 8), and "o [YDIF] connectors" in "Controls and Connectors" (page 11).

Quick Guide
This section explains basic settings and connection procedures for constructing an MTX/MRX system
using the MTX3. Some of the steps may not be necessary for your system; if so, proceed to the next step.
Use MTX-MRX Editor to make the required settings before you
actually install and connect the equipment.
1.
Prepare a computer in which to install MTX-
MRX Editor.
2. Install MTX-MRX Editor in your computer.
For details on installation, refer to “MTX Setup Manual.”
3. Specify the IP address and subnet mask of
your computer.
Enter “192.168.0.253” as the IP address and
“255.255.255.0” as the subnet mask.
4. If you want to play back music or other audio
files from the MTX3 itself, prepare an SD mem-
ory card.
Copy the audio files to your SD memory card. For details on
SD memory card handling, refer to “Using the MTX3 to play
audio files saved on an SD memory card” (page 19).
5. Start up MTX-MRX Editor.
For details on installing and using MTX-MRX Editor, refer
to “MTX Setup Manual” and “MTX-MRX Editor User
Guide.”
6. Set up the entire MTX/MRX system as directed
by the wizard.
Make settings such as the number of connected MTX/XMV/
Exi8/EXo8/DCP devices, and the UNIT ID and YDIF mode
(Cascade mode or Distribution mode) for each device. For
details on YDIF, refer to “Features” (page 8), and “
o
[YDIF] connectors” in “Controls and Connectors” (page 11).
Print out the schematic diagram shown at the end of the wiz-
ard, and use it when you make the actual connections and
settings.
7.
The audio signal flow in the MTX3 and the
principal parameters to be set are as follows.
Make the settings in the order shown.
For details on each item, refer to “MTX-MRX Editor User
Guide.”
Make settings for the necessary components while offline.
