The Strength of Digital™

DQS Menu Screens

One of the major benefits of using Digital tech- nology is the ability to use less knobs and buttons and get more control. The DQS has six, 30-band mono equalizers plus six 2-band parametric equalizers, that would normally require almost 200 individual controls and occupy an area as large as your trunk. AudioControl’s digital tech- nology allows the DQS to offer a plethora of features in one compact chassis. In addition there are only a few knobs so navigating through the DQS’s functions is quite simple.

When you first apply power to your DQS, it will go through a few “wake-up” screens, including some subliminal advertising for AudioControl. It will then display a friendly blue screen (not the scary blue screen found on many computers). Fear not, because the blue screen on the DQS is actu- ally a good thing.

Menu Tree: Once your DQS has settled on one of these menu screens, you will want to spend a few minutes familiarizing yourself with the various modes. Although the DQS has one main screen , there are eleven sub menu screens that allow you to access and program all of the various functions of your DQS. Figure 5 shows you how the Menu Tree of your DQS flows.
