Building an MCA Definition
Building an MCA Definition means:
• Selecting the MCA and front end hardware to be used for each input through
the Device Menu.
• Defining the operating characteristics and modes for each MCA and its front
end hardware through the Settings Menu.
In this section we’ll explain how to add (and delete) the MID editor’s MCA entries
and will explain what the definition entry consists of and the next section tells how to
define the DSA-2000 MCAs.
