MC602 FEATURES
Congratulations! Your new Model MC602 is a state of the art Music Center that
provides Hands Free Room to Room communication throughout your house as well
as furnishing AM, FM, or auxiliary source audio. An optional door chime can be
integrated into the system to provide door communication with automatic music
muting. The MC602 contains a Digital Clock with a back-up power supply that never
needs replacing. It maintains the correct time and presets for up to 2 hours during a
power outage.
The Hands Free communications allows every station in the house to initiate a call
and then to listen for the response. The call initiator does have to press TALK and
LISTEN but the person responding does not need to press any buttons. The door is
even easier to answer with Automatic Hands Free communications from any station.
The system automatically listens to the door after you talk to it.
The state of the art transreflective LCD display and power conserving backlight can
be read in any lighting condition from direct sunlight to complete darkness. The unit
provides excellent fidelity for up to 15 rooms with plenty of power. The MC602 has a
Digital Phase Lock Loop Tuner with 8 AM and 8 FM Station Presets. The MC602 also
has two external source inputs (AUX IN and TAPE IN) and one line output (TAPE
OUT) that can be used with M&S's built-in Cassette Tape and/or CD player as well as
your TV or other music sources.
The MC602 has the ability to turn itself ON and OFF at preset times (like an alarm
clock or for security--to play music in the house while you are gone). The MC602 was
designed to be as user friendly as possible. It also indicates when and how the
intercom function is being used. The MC602 has an optional Door Release which can
be used to open a door or gate from the Master or any room with remote scan
speakers. The MC602 provides a Security interface which allows any remote scan
speaker to be used as a panic alarm for the security system or the MC602 can
provide a Home Automation interface which allows any remote scan speaker to
control a group of lights and/or appliances. These same remote scan speakers allow
memory or station tuning, changing sources, music ON/OFF control and system wide
music volume control. Up to four optional hand-held remote controls can be used to
control the MC602 from any room inside and even outside your house.
The MC602 allows you to monitor any room (including the Master) to let you know
when a baby is crying or when an elderly person needs help. The MC602 can be set
up so that this 'monitored room' does or does not hear other communication in the
house. There is also an intercom only position, a music with intercom override
position, and an off position for each room.
