System Configuration

phone is firmly connected. The microphone cable is approximately 6 m long, which should accommodate most listening room situations.

If required, you may use an optional extension cable, available at most electronics stores, for use in larger rooms. However, we recommend that you avoid using extension cords for the microphone cable, as they may adversely affect the test results.

Step 4: Once the microphone is properly positioned and plugged in, proceed to the ROOM AUTO SETUP menus by first pressing the OSD Button to bring the MAIN MENU to the screen. Next, press the 5/b Buttons to move the onscreen cursor to the ROOM AUTO SETUP menu line. Press the ENTER Button to move to the next screen.

Step 5: The first screen of the ROOM AUTO SETUP sys- tem will now appear to remind you to plug in the micro- phone.

If you have not already done so, plug the microphone into the Headphone Jack as described in steps 2 and 3. When you are ready to proceed, make certain that the cursor is pointing to YES and press the ENTER Button. If you do not wish to continue with the ROOM AUTO SETUP process, press the g/t Buttons and then press the ENTER Button to return to the MAIN MENU. Note that if you attempt to move to the next menu without plugging in the microphone, a reminder message will flash at the bottom of the screen.

ask someone else to run the ROOM AUTO SETUP process, or that you do not use ROOM AUTO SETUP and enter the configuration settings manually.

Step 7: The WARNING screen will automatically be replaced by the main ROOM AUTO SETUP menu.

While this screen is visible, you may start and stop the calibration process, or monitor the progress of the mea- surements and view the results. When the screen first appears, you will see AUTO START: STOP on the first line of the menu list. To start the ROOM AUTO SETUP test process, you must first tell the system how many speak- ers are in your system. To do that, choose one of these two options:

•If your system includes a full complement of seven main speakers (front left/center/front right/surround right/sur- round back right/surround back left/surround left) and a subwoofer, press the g/t Navigation Buttons so that 7.1 CH appears to the right of AUTO START, and then press the Set Button to start ROOM AUTO SETUP.

•If your system includes a traditional surround speaker complement of five main speakers (front left/center/front right/surround right/surround left) and a subwoofer, press the g/t Buttons so that 5.1 CH appears to the right of AUTO START, and then press the Set Button to start ROOM AUTO SETUP. To stop the calibration process at any time, press the 5/b Buttons to move the on-screen cursors to the AUTO START line; press the g/t Navigation Buttons.

Step 6: After entering YES to start the ROOM AUTO SETUP system, you will next see a brief warning mes- sage, and the screen will then change to the main ROOM AUTO SETUP menu.

The WARNING screen is a reminder that in order for the system to perform accurate measurements, it is impor- tant that the listening room be as quiet as possible. After 5 seconds, the screen will change again to display the main ROOM AUTO SETUP menu.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Anyone with hearing that is sensitive to loud noises should leave the room at this point, or use ear protection sufficient to reduce the noise level. Inexpensive foam-style ear plugs, available at most drug stores, may be used to reduce the sound level to a tolera- ble level. If you are uncomfortable with, or cannot toler- ate, loud sounds and do not use some sort of ear protec- tion, we strongly recommend that you leave the room and

Step 8: Once ROOM AUTO SETUP has been started, you will hear test signals circulate among all of the speakers as the system sets the master level, checks to see where there are speakers, sets the distance measurement and calculates delay time settings, sets the speaker "size", and sets the speaker crossover point. During the mea- surement and calibration process, you may observe the progress of the testing by reading the messages that appear in the second line of the menu listing. When the ROOM AUTO SETUP screen first appears, it contains a series of dashes, but as the test and measurement pro- ceeds, you will see the following messages as the indi- vidual measurements are taken:

•System Level: ADJUST VOLUME message will appear to indicate that the system is setting the overall volume level to the proper level as a prelude to testing the individual channels.
