Multi Player Control (MPC) Program
MPC for DOS
The Multi Player Control v 1.2 is a memory resident “audio” remote control program
for the Pioneer CD-ROM Changer. Multi Player Control operates the Pioneer CD-
ROM Changer as a CD Player during execution of most programs on a PC. Multi
Player Control consists of one file to make it resident in memory and another program
to remove it from memory. Use MPC.COM to install Multi Player Control Program
and use MPCRMV.COM to remove it from memory.
Install it by typing C:\ Pioneer\MPC.COM. Once it is installed you can bring it up
with the <ALT+ HYPHEN> keys at any time. From within this program you can
select the disc, track number, instruct the unit to play, pause, or eject the disc, and
you can turn the volume up or down. Use the arrow key to select functions, and press
the space key or enter key to execute a selected function. Use the <ESC> key to
close the MPC window. Type C:\ Pioneer\MPCRMV.COM to remove the
program.
You can also send direct commands to the player from within MPC. Select the
Command function to make the command window pop up. Then type a specific
mnemonic command string such as TR3SEPL <CR> Carriage Return. This will
search to TRACK 3, and PLAY. Or send the command 1KL <CR> to turn Key Lock
ON and disable the eject button on the front of the player. Or send 0KL <CR> to turn
Key Lock OFF. The player will send back an “R” indicating it received and executed
the command. See Appendix D for a complete list of CDP commands to control the
CD-ROM Changer.
