Using with Ai-NET connections

When Ai-NET connections are used, the volume, subwoofer, balance and fader are adjusted from the head unit (they cannot be adjusted from the PXA-H700). However, BASS and TREB can not be adjusted from the head unit, so adjust them from PXA-H700.

Using with RCA-type or optical cable connections (non Ai-NET connections)

Switching the input

The PXA-H700 is equipped with three sets of analog signal inputs and three sets of digital signal inputs. For further information about connections, see Page 36.

1 Press the SETUP button. The setup mode is set.

2 Turn the Rotary encoder to select the “INPUT SELECT” mode, then press the ENTER button.

3 Turn the Rotary encoder to select the input mode, then press the ENTER button.

4 Press the SETUP button repeatedly to quit the setup mode.

NOTE

Non Ai-NET connections

Alpine products are equipped for a bus connection system called “Ai-NET” which can only be used for connections between Ai-NET products.

The PXA-H700 is an Ai-NET product, but is designed to allow connections to other (non Ai-NET) products as well. Thus RCA-type and optical cable connections are also possible.

Connections to non Ai-NET products are referred to as “non Ai-NET connections”.

Adjusting the input level

Using the analog, RCA-type connections, the PXA-H700’s input level must be preset from the head unit.

Adjust the input level using a sound source with a high recording level (such as pop or rock music).

1 Turn on the head unit’s power.

2 Turn the Rotary encoder on the main unit counterclockwise and set the volume level to “0”.

3 Gradually increase the volume of the head unit until “INPUT LEVEL OVER” appears in the display.

Reduce the volume slightly from this position, until “INPUT LEVEL OVER” display just turns off. This completes the setting.

Do not change the head unit volume level from this optimum setting. Use the PXA-H700, only, for changing the volume level.

NOTE

Switch to the spectrum analyzer display mode or the input channel display mode before adjusting the input level. (See page 29)

Adjusting the volume, balance, fader and subwoofer

After determining the input level, adjust the volume, balance, fader and subwoofer from the PXA-H700. Be careful not to make these adjustments on the head unit.

1 Press the ENTER button and select the mode to be adjusted.
