System Settings: This menu option controls system-wide
settings, fig 15.
Date/Time: The Grand Concerto has an internal
clock that allows each Control Pad to display the
current time. Within this menu you can easily set
Year, Month, Day, Hour, and Minute.
External Mute/Page: The EXT. MUTE input on the
back panel of the Grand Concerto has a dual
function. In normal mode, it is designed for the
Mute Interface, NV-MI1 (see NV-MI1 Mute Interface
Adaptor page, ). It can also be configured for use
with a paging phone system to enable whole-house
paging. This requires a phone system that provides
an audio output for paging that is plugged into
source input 6 on the Grand Concerto (note that this
feature eliminates the use of Source 6 as an audio
source for the system). To use the Page function,
you must select Paging Mode. There are two types
of voltage triggers associated with the Page
function. If the phone system you are using sends a
voltage to trigger paging, selecting Paging Mode
sets the mute input to react and mute all zones. If it
triggers by creating a closure (dropping down to 0
voltage), you need to select Active High (Open).
Sources: This Allows unused source inputs to be
turned off so they do not show up when you scroll
through the sources at the Control Pads.

XIII. Using the Control Pad for Music Source Control
The Control Pad is a wonderful interface to all the Grand
Concerto music sources. The MENU, Forward and Reverse, and
Play/Pause buttons ultimately allow complete access to the
sources within the system.
Source Main Menu
When the Control Pad is in basic play-back mode, it defaults
to a large font suitable for reading from a distance. When the
MENU button is pushed, a source-specific menu will appear.
An important feature of the Configurator Software is an
additional Macro Definition window that allows multiple
macros to be defined and automatically added to the source
menu with the label Macros. This is an important function for
sources such as satellite, cable, and multiple-disc changers as
a direct access to channels and discs. Once added as a
playback menu, these can be incorporated as one of the 12
direct access global favorites.
