SEMI AUTOCAL

SETUP SPEAKER/EQ SETUP SEMII AUTOCAL

Selects the SEMI AUTOCAL procedure, which automatically sets the speaker distances and output levels, as well as performing system equalization adjustments. The cross-over points for each speaker must be manually set before this procedure can be run. See the next section, “Manual Speaker Set-Up”, for more information on how to set the cross-over points.

Performing the Semi Autocal Procedure:

In order to perform this test, the following initial setup is required:

•All of the speakers are connected to the RV-5 and positioned in the listening space.

•The cross-over points for each speaker are set through the MANUAL setup menu. See the following section, “Manual Speaker Setup”, for information on how to manually set the cross-over points.

•A monitor is connected to the RV-5 for viewing the OSD during the procedure.

•The microphone, included with the RV-5, must be connected to the rear panel Microphone input connector and positioned in the primary listening position.

For best results, install the microphone onto the accompanying rod by threading the two parts together and hold or place it in the primary listening position. Use a microphone stand or tripod if necessary.

The Semi Autocal procedure is performed in the same manner as the Full Autocal procedure. Refer to the “Performing the Full Autocal Procedure” for more details.

CAUTION!

DO NOT place the microphone too close to the speakers during the autocal procedure. If the microphone is within one foot of the speaker, the test tones that are output during the autocal procedure could cause a feedback loop which may damage the speaker. Harman Specialty Group assumes no responsibility for speaker damage.
