Use a commercially-available RS-232C cable to connect the RS- 232C jack on your computer to the 9-pin RS-232C jack on the back panel of this receiver (the cable must be cross type, female–female).

The software to output the results is available from the support area of the Pioneer website (http:// www.pioneerelectronics.com/pna/ci/codes/

0,,2076_262707270,00.html). Instructions for using the software are also available here. Please contact the Customer Support Division of Pioneer if you have any questions or concerns.

Please make sure your system meets the following requirements:

•Operating system must be Windows® XP, Windows® 2000, Windows® Millennium Edition, Windows® 98 Second Edition, or Windows® NT 4.0 (Service pack 6).

•CPU must be at least Pentium 3 / 300 MHz or AMD K6 / 300 MHz (or equivalent) with at least 128 MB of memory, and your monitor must be able to display a minimum resolution of 800x600.

•An RS-232C port connector is necessary for graphical output. Refer to the operating instructions and/or the PC manufacturer for more information on making the proper port settings.

•System must have internet access.

•Connect your computer to the RS-232C jack on the rear panel of the receiver.

Make sure that the receiver and all connected components are switched off and disconnected from the power outlet when you do this.1

Use a commercially-available cable to connect the RS- 232C jack on your computer to the 9-pin RS-232C jack on this receiver. See the documentation provided with the Advanced MCACC application for more information.

It will take about ten seconds for the transmission to complete, then you will be able to analyze the output on your computer. Since the data will be cleared from the receiver when you restart reverb measurement or turn off the receiver, you might want to save the information on your PC after measurement.

You’ll be taken to the Advanced EQ Setup. Depending on the results, you may want to continue with the Advanced EQ setup (see Professional Acoustic Calibration EQ on page 38 for more on this). You can also simply press RETURN again to exit the Professional Acoustic Calibration EQ setup.
