6Delta Series Quick Start Guide

The tone control mode allows the user to adjust Bass, Treble, and Balance on a “per zone” basis. To enter

tone control mode, press VOL UP & VOL DOWN buttons simultaneously until LED’s begin to cycle in

a counter-clockwise motion.

This will enable the BASS and BALANCE settings first. At any time during adjustments, If you want to

return the settings to default, press and hold the centre keypad navigation button. When you are satisfied

with your adjustment, press (but not hold) the centre keypad navigation button to save the bass and

balance adjustment. This will take you to the treble and balance adjustment mode. Once again, once

adjustments are complete, press (but not hold) the centre keypad navigation button to return to normal

operation mode.

5. Basic Programming

The key to successful programming is to understand how each of the source components operates.

Programming and IR Capture take place on the front panel of the Delta Controller. Settings such as Bass,

Treble, and Balance functions are programmed from within any zone using the keypad. We suggest you

read this section carefully in its entirety BEFORE starting to program the Delta Controller. This will

allow you to obtain a general understanding of what you will see and what to expect when you go

through the programming exercise.

Programming techniques may need to be modified on a remote-by-remote basis. Some remotes may

need to be closer to or further away from the Delta Controller. Some may program better with quick key

presses and some with long key presses. Generally speaking, the audio source remote should be located

about 6-12 inches away from the IR receiver on the Delta Controller.

The path between the devices should be unobstructed with a clear line of sight.

Fluorescent light fixtures and bright sunlight may interfere with the learning process, so you may choose

to shade the IR receiver with a sheet of paper or other practical means. When possible use only

incandescent lighting during the programming session. During programming, distance between the

remote and the Delta Controller is also important. If the remote is too close to the unit the IR signal will

overload the learner. If it’s to far away, it might not learn due to weak signals strength. A bit of trial and

error will quickly get you to the correct distance.

The programming controls (also called the “navigational array”) and the IR receiver are located on the

front of the Delta Controller. The four directional buttons allow you to navigate through the menu

screens. The centre button is used to make selections (as if to press OK or ENTER).

Refer to the Programming the Delta System section on page 27 for detailed programming instructions.
