Configuring the digital surround processor
20
Choosing standard settings
The digital surround processor provides 12 alternative standard
settings, called Types, which configure all aspects of the 565
into the six most commonly needed configurations.
Choosing one of the 12 standard settings overrides any other
configuration you may have performed, and so can be used to
reset the configuration of the unit.
The Type you choose depends on the following aspects of your
system:
❍Whether you are using the digital surround processor on its
own, or in conjunction with a 562/562V Digital Control Unit.
❍Whether one or more Meridian DSP Loudspeakers are
included in the system.
❍Whether you are using the earlier Meridian 200 Series units.
The Type you should choose is shown in the table on the
opposite page.
Note that you cannot use the digital surround processor with the
Meridian 601, or with both 200 Series units and a Meridian DSP
Loudspeaker.

To select a standard setting

●Switch off any power amplifiers that are connected to the 565
and put any digital speakers to standby.
●Switch off the 565, using the power switch on the back panel.
●Switch on the power again while holding down the Off key on
the front panel.
After a short delay the display will show:
Type 1
●Press ▲ or ▼ on the front panel to change the Type number.
For example, if you select Type 3 the
display shows:
Type 3
●Wait for one second, and then switch off the 565 using the
power switch on the back panel.
●Switch on again to use the standard settings you have
selected.
