Programming

Volume Limit

This function sets the maximum volume level that a user can select for an
amp/channel-input combination.
Warning: The Volume Limit function will cause the amp-
input combination in the PM-3180 to play at the maximum
limit (default value is 25, full volume). This will normally be
quite loud. Be careful that people are not next to speakers
and that the power rating of the speakers is high enough to
handle full amplifier power. Since the PM-3000 can only
control the maximum input signal to an amplifier, the VOL
limits are only valid if the external power amplifier volume
is not changed.
Note: The system should be completely wired before making
any of these adjustments, since the installer will normally want
to listen to the output in order to make the adjustment.
1. Enter programming mode and press the NEXT or BACK buttons until
VOL LIMITappears on the display.
2. Press ENT to enter the function.
3. Select the amplifier and input
you wish to limit by pressing its
selector buttons. The display
shows the current amp-input and
its current volume limit setting.
The 2-digit volume level can
range between 00 and 25. The
factory default is 25, allowing full
volume. Subsequently, the dis-
play will show the current setting.
5. Press the arrow buttons to increase or decrease the
volume. The level number will increase or
decrease, and the pointer will move left or right in
response to the changes made.
Note: Press and hold arrow buttons to effect rapid changes in
volume. Quick presses of the buttons will effect single-step
changes in volume.
