Delta Series Quick Start Guide

4. Power Up and Test the Basic System Operation

Make sure the Delta Controller is plugged into the wall and the power switch on the back panel is in the
ON position. The Delta system should now be ready for initial testing.
To test the system connections, activate one source from a keypad. Begin by manually activating one of
the available audio sources such as the tuner and move through each zone and test that keypads respond
to the on/off, volume, and tone control commands and that the source can be heard in all zones on both
speakers.
The basic functionality of the Delta Controller (which means turning Delta on/off, volume up/down and
treble/bass/balance) are functions that can be performed without programming (FIG. 4).
If a tuner module has been installed, all of the basic tuner operations will also be able to function without
any programming so you will have sound for a test signal right away. The IR repeaters must be installed
and basic source component commands must be programmed to select and/or control any external
sources however. Until then, you will have to manually turn on and start the external source component if
used as a test source!

Turning a Zone ON

Pressing the Source key turns the system on in the room you are in and also turns that source on if it has
not been previously selected in another zone. The indicator next to the source will light Red. Through
Matrix’s own Dynamic Macro process, sources that are muted or paused will be turned off after they are
idle (not selected in any zone) for ten minutes. Press the active source button again to turn the zone off.

Volume Control

Control of the system volume is very intuitive because of discrete buttons for the Volume UP and
Volume DOWN command. When increasing or decreasing volume, the progression is in 3dB steps when
the volume is half (of maximum) or below. Above the halfway point, the progression drops to 1dB steps
so you can fine tune the adjustment without worry of overdriving speakers by surprise.
