Setting Up and Optimizing the Audio
The following steps ensure optimal sound is achieved by configuring the PVS 204SA properly. For each step, refer to the sections indicated for more information.
Steps for optimizing the audio
1. Ensure all the settings are at default. These are the settings the PVS has upon initial power up. The default settings are as shown below.
•Volume is set at 50%.
•Bass and treble are set at 0.
•Power Amplifier level is set to 50% (default level is 0 dB).
•Loudness control is set to Off.
NAmplifier level and volume level are not the same adjustments. Volume can only be adjusted by
2. Ensure that the PVT transmitters are connected to the PVS and that there is an audio input source present at each of the transmitters. Refer to the transmitters’ user’s manual for installation/connection information.
3. Ensure a set of speakers are connected to the PVS 204SA. See chapter 2, “Installation”, “Speaker Configuration” section, for details.
4. Slowly adjust the volume to 100% via
5. Adjust the input sensitivity for one input through the front panel or by
NAdjusting input sensitivity for all inputs ensures that all inputs are at the same level, and at the highest level possible before clipping occurs. Step 5 ensures that when the volume is at 100%, the audio signal will not clip.
6. When adjustments to all four inputs’ sensitivity settings have been made, adjust the amplifier level. Increase or decrease the amplifier level very slowly by turning the front panel level encoder counterclockwise until the desired level is reached.
NIf the volume is at 100% through the MLC and the output on the speakers is too loud, reducing the amp level using the front panel encoder is recommended. This ensures that the volume will not be too loud, even when set at 100%.
