Adjusting the Speaker Input's Interruption Detection Level
You can set the level for voice interruption.
Setting items: FACT SYS DET
Setting level: 1 to 15
When the setting level is low, the voice interrupts even if a low volume level is set on the system
•The setting can be made when INT or BOTH is set in "Setting the Speaker Input Mode" (page 16).
•Warning beeps such as for seat belts may also output from the speakers, depending to the car. Make sure that voice interruption sounds correctly in such a car.
•We recommend initially setting the level to 8. Set the voice interruption level to more than 8 if interruption is too frequent, or set it to less than 8 if interruption is not frequent enough.
Setting the Interrupt Type of the Speaker Input Voice
The following explanation is how to set the voice interrupt type of the speaker input. When the navigation voice guidance is made to interrupt, set to DEMAND, and the telephone voice is made to interrupt, set to MUTE, these are recommended.
Setting items: F.SYS MIX TYP
Setting content: FULL / DEMAND / MUTE
FULL: Regardless of the speaker interruption detection level, voice interruption and source sound are both active. If voice interruption cannot be heard clearly, adjust the source volume accordingly on the commander.
DEMAND: When speaker input interruption occurs, voice interruption may be too high or too low, adjust the source volume so voice interruption can be heard. If no speaker input interruption occurs for 5 seconds, source volume returns to the level you initially set. When speaker input interruption occurs again, source volume level automatically returns to the last one you set.
MUTE: To avoid voice interruption not being heard clearly, this setting mutes the current source sound whenever speaker input interruption occurs. In this setting, even when voice interruption cannot be heard clearly, you can still set the volume by the commander. When speaker input interruption occurs, the commander buttons blink. Press SOURCE/ POWER to cancel voice interruption.
•The setting can be made when INT or BOTH is set in "Setting the Speaker Input Mode" (page 16).
Adjusting the Speaker Input Voice Interruption Level
The output level of the speaker input interruption can be adjusted.
Setting items: FACT SYS MIX

Setting the Channel of the Speaker Interruption Detection
The setting should be made according to the speaker output of the car system (navigation/telephone).
Setting items: F.SYS INT CH.
Setting content: L / R / BOTH
L:Outputs from the left speaker of the car system.
R:Outputs from the right speaker of the car system. BOTH: Outputs from both speakers of the car system.
•Usually set to BOTH.
•The setting can be made when INT or BOTH is set in "Setting the Speaker Input Mode" (page 16).
•The speaker input interrupt voice is output from the right and left front speaker regardless of this setting.
