Delta Installation - Quick Start Steps

Tone Control

The tone control mode allows the user to adjust Bass, Treble, and Balance on a “per zone” basis. To enter tone control mode, press VOL UP & VOL DOWN buttons simultaneously until LED’s begin to cycle in a counter-clockwise motion.

This will enable the BASS and BALANCE settings first. At any time during adjustments, If you want to return the settings to default, press and hold the centre keypad navigation button. When you are satisfied with your adjustment, press (but not hold) the centre keypad navigation button to save the bass and balance adjustment. This will take you to the treble and balance adjustment mode. Once again, once adjustments are complete, press (but not hold) the centre keypad navigation button to return to normal operation mode.

5. Basic Programming

The key to successful programming is to understand how each of the source components operates.

Programming and IR Capture take place on the front panel of the Delta Controller. Settings such as Bass, Treble, and Balance functions are programmed from within any zone using the keypad. We suggest you read this section carefully in its entirety BEFORE starting to program the Delta Controller. This will allow you to obtain a general understanding of what you will see and what to expect when you go through the programming exercise.

IR Learning Techniques

Programming techniques may need to be modified on a remote-by-remote basis. Some remotes may need to be closer to or further away from the Delta Controller. Some may program better with quick key presses and some with long key presses. Generally speaking, the audio source remote should be located about 6-12 inches away from the IR receiver on the Delta Controller.

The path between the devices should be unobstructed with a clear line of sight.

Fluorescent light fixtures and bright sunlight may interfere with the learning process, so you may choose to shade the IR receiver with a sheet of paper or other practical means. When possible use only incandescent lighting during the programming session. During programming, distance between the remote and the Delta Controller is also important. If the remote is too close to the unit the IR signal will overload the learner. If it’s to far away, it might not learn due to weak signals strength. A bit of trial and error will quickly get you to the correct distance.

Program Panel

The programming controls (also called the “navigational array”) and the IR receiver are located on the front of the Delta Controller. The four directional buttons allow you to navigate through the menu screens. The centre button is used to make selections (as if to press OK or ENTER).

Refer to the Programming the Delta System section on page 27 for detailed programming instructions.
