Russound MCA-C3 User and Installation Manual
Programmable options with SCS-C5 software
The necessary software (SCS-C5) to program and congure the system is
available via download from the Doc Center at www.russound.com. With your
PC laptop, you can congure the system prior to connecting with the MCA-C3
controller. The software has a Source Setup Wizard to aid in the setup and basic
conguration of the sources. Once congured, the system information can be
saved to a le. Reports can also be generated for a hard copy back up of the
system conguration.
Items to be programmed with SCS-C5 software include:
Source Conguration - group by zone- or source-based options.
Zone and Source Names - a list of predened names for both are available
and will be visible upon keypads and in reports. Custom naming is also
possible following the character parameters.
Source Exclusion - denes the set of sources available to each zone.
Party Mode Participation - denes whether the zone can participate in
Party mode.
Zone and Source Linked Groups - Two groups of each type are allowed per
controller. Groups share source selection and party mode participation.
All ON Participation - denes whether or not the zone will respond to the
All ON command.
Page Event mode - denes whether a zone will respond to a page event.
Page Volume - sets the volume of a page event in each zone.
Power Management of Sources - enabled / disabled per source. If enabled
the source will turn on when the rst zone is turned on or the home
theater trigger has 12 VDC present. The source will turn o 5 minutes after
the last zone is turned o, or 5 minutes after input is discontinued from
the home theater trigger. This feature uses IR commands and audio signal
sensing to power up sources and initiate audio to conrm source power
states. NOTE: Power management must be enabled for RNET sources for
controller to go into standby mode.
