9:Calibrating the appropriate speaker settings automatically

(Auto Calibration)

The DCAC (Digital Cinema Auto Calibration) function allows you to perform automatic calibration, such as checking the connection between each speaker and the receiver, adjusting the speaker level, and measuring the distance of each speaker from your seating position automatically. Refer also to “Quick Setup Guide” supplied with the receiver.

Before you perform the Auto Calibration

Before you perform the Auto Calibration, set up and connect the speakers (page 14).

The AUTO CAL MIC jack is used for the supplied optimizer microphone only. Do not connect other microphones. Doing so may damage the receiver and the microphone.

During the measurement, the sound that comes out of the speakers is very loud. The volume of the sound cannot be adjusted. Pay attention to the presence of children or to the effect on your neighborhood.

Perform the measurement in a quiet environment to avoid the effect of noise and get a more accurate measurement.

If there are any obstacles in the path between the optimizer microphone and the speakers, the calibration cannot be performed correctly. Remove any obstacle from the measurement area to avoid measurement error.

When you use a bi-amplifier connection, set “BI-AMP Speaker” to “ON” in the Speaker settings menu before you perform Auto Calibration.
