Why don't my CG files appear in the Sony MCS-8M list?
If CG files do not appear in the list, it could be due to two reasons: either the file is not saved in the correct import folder, or the file name is too long. To fix this, save the file in the “\Sony\MCS\FM” folder and ensure the file name (including the extension) is 25 characters or less.
What to do if the menu selection buttons on my Sony MCS-8M Switch don't work?

Why is the FTB button not working on my Sony MCS-8M Switch?
If the FTB button in the transition control block does not function, it could be due to one of two reasons. First, AUX 1 or AUX 2 might be delegated to the cross-point control block.

If so, set [Fade To Black] to [Enbl].
