Setup/Configuration Screen

SETUP:

Selecting this button takes you to the preset configuration page. The VSX™ is pre-programmed with eight configuration templates representing the most frequently used crossover possibilities. As you scroll through the configuration presets you will see and can adjust the basic filter types (only symmetrical choices may be made here). Center frequencies of those filters and a graphic representation

of the filters will be displayed. You must enter “OK” to accept the selection. Selecting and pressing Exit or pressing the Setup button will return you to the main screen. Upon returning to the main screen you will see the graphic representation of your selection.

OUTPUT 1-6:

Output levels may be adjusted on this page. Press “done” or push the setup button to return to the main screen.

EQ Screen

Inputs A & B or outputs 1-6 should be selected on the top of the screen. While on the top of the screen push the data wheel and an arrow appears. Rotate the wheel to select which input or output you wish to adjust.

Graphic EQs on inputs

Bandwidth select:

This switch gives a paragraphic action to the 27 band equalizer. It toggles between 1/6, 1/3, 1/2 and 1 octave bandwidth for the width of the individual filters. Bandwidth is defined 3 dB from the peak or minimum amplitude and greatly affects the way the adjacent filters combine or stay independent. Wider bandwidth is most useful when adjusting the overall curve of the speaker to the room or tone control as ripple is minimized. The 1/6th bandwidth has the least filter skirt combining and should be used for feedback control only.

Frequency:

As you scroll through the 27 positions the knob graphic becomes filled and the corresponding frequency is listed on the bottom left. Press the data wheel to select a frequency to adjust.

Level:

After selecting a frequency, rotating the data wheel allows boosting or cutting the amplitude of the selected frequency +/- 15 dB in .5 dB increments.

Power user tip: Pressing the EQ button is a short cut to return to the top of the screen.
