A Amp Assign Start Cancel a Start Menu The settings are performed automatically. Start Start auto setup and output the test tone. If an error message appears during the measurements, check "Error Messages", take the necessary countermeasures, then redo the measurements (vpage 25). Set as desired before starting the auto setup procedure. Front Speaker The front speaker to be measured can be selected ahead of time here. [Selectable items] A : Output test tone from front speakers A. B : Output test tone from front speakers B. A + B : Output test tone from front speakers A and B. Step 1 : Speaker Detection The speaker connection status and the speaker polarities are detected at the main listening position. At this time, the listening environment with respect to the main listening position ("Speaker size check", "Distance correction", "Channel level adjustment", "Crossover frequency check" and "Room EQ correction") is measured automatically at the main listening position. Once the measurements are completed, the results of the speaker connection are displayed. NOTE • Loud test tones are output during the measurements. Be careful when measuring at night or when there are small children nearby. • Do not stand between the speakers and setup microphone or allow obstacles between them while the measurements are being made. Obstacles will make it impossible to measure correctly. • Keep as quiet as possible during measurements. Loud sounds in the area will make it impossible to measure correctly. • Operating the MASTER VOLUME knob on the main unit or the MASTER VOLUME buttons on the remote control unit during the measurements will cancel the measurements. • Do not change the speaker connections or subwoofer volume after "Step 1". Step 2 : Measurements The listening environment with respect to the listening position ("Speaker size check", "Crossover Frequency check" and "Room EQ correction") is measured automatically at positions 2 to 6. Once a measurement is made, move the setup microphone to the next position. Measurements can be completed even if only taken in 5 positions, but for better results we recommend taking them in 6 positions. Step 3 : Calculation When "Calculate" is selected at "Step 2", the speaker system is analyzed automatically. The time required for this analysis depends on the number of speakers connected. The more the number of speakers, the longer the time required for analysis. Step 4 : Check Once the auto setup procedure is completed, a measuring result checking screen appears. Select any item whose measuring results you want to check and check the results. Values that are different from the actual distance may be set for speakers with built-in filters (subwoofers, etc.). Step 5 : Store The auto setup measurement results are stored. NOTE Do not turn the power off while the settings are being stored in the memory. Amp Assign Advanced setting : changes power amplifier assignment. For details, refer to "Amp Assign" (vpage 30).
