Customising the Control Unit

This chapter explains how to customise the 501/501V Control Unit to your preferred configuration.

The simplest way of configuring the control unit is to choose one of the standard settings, which are designed to cater for the six most common configurations of sources and inputs.

Alternatively, you can configure each source individually to suit the other equipment in your system. You can choose the label used for each source, and balance the input sensitivities so that the sound level remains the same when you switch between sources.

Finally, the 501/501V Control Unit provides several settings that you can alter to optimise the way in which it works with the other equipment in your system.
