Integrated Function Controller

There are up to eight Functions within the top-level menu structure that allow configuration of the subwoofer. These Functions include:

Volume (dB)

High pass filter adjustment (disable/enable, frequency, and slope)

Low pass filter adjustment (disable/enable, frequency, and slope)

Phase setting (degrees)

High pass delay (milliseconds)

Room compensation (disable/enable, frequency, and slope)

Subwoofer tune (sealed, 16Hz, 20Hz)

Parametric EQ (PEQ) 1 and PEQ 2 (frequency, level and Q for each)

The following section describes each Function in detail, along with its use and available settings/values. Once familiar with the operation of the IFC on the SVS subwoofer, there is a block-level diagram included at the end of the section if needed for quick reference.

Volume

From the IFC WELCOME screen, single-click the IFC knob and the display should read “MENU/VOLUME”. Single-click the IFC knob to select the Volume Function. Turn the IFC knob clockwise to increase the Volume of the subwoofer, or counter-clockwise to decrease the volume. Single-click OR double-click to return to the top- level menu. The range of adjustment of this control is -100 to 0 dB in 1 dB increments.

High Pass Filter (HPF) Adjustment (STA-1000D)

The output (both single-ended RCA and Balanced) can have a High Pass Filter applied. The HPF Function controls the High Pass frequency and the associated slope of the roll off for the output connectors on the STA-1000D.

From the IFC WELCOME screen, single-click the IFC knob and rotate the IFC knob one click clockwise so the display reads “MENU/HIGH PASS”. Single-click the IFC knob to get to the HPF Function menu. If the HPF is disabled, a mes- sage to that effect will be displayed.

If the HPF is disabled, turn the IFC knob clockwise which will display the High Pass Frequency submenu. To set the HPF frequency to a value other than what is currently displayed, single-click the IFC knob and then rotate the knob clockwise or counter-clockwise to set the desired frequency. Frequency choices include 31, 40, 50, 63, 80, 100, and 125Hz.

Single-click the IFC knob to return to the High Pass Function menu. Turn the IFC knob to move to the High Pass Slope submenu and single-click to change the slope value. The High Pass Slope defines the slope of the attenuation curve below the selected frequency. Two choices are available; 12 dB per octave and 24 dB per octave.
