SYSTEM CONFIGURATION 3. Press the Set Button q within five seconds to activate the remote's manual mode, so that it functions as an SPL meter. The right corner of the bottom line of the remote's display will show the output level of the speakers as the test tone circulates. The level will show as a direct SPL indication between 66dB and 79dB. Below 66dB the remote will read LOW and above 79dB it will read HIGH. 4. When you are finished with all adjustments, press the Clear Button 9 to return the remote to normal operation. NOTE: The subwoofer level is not adjustable when the normal test tone is in use. The subwoofer output level may also be adjusted when the channel levels are being trimmed to a program source rather than the test tone, as shown on page 36. When all channels have an equal volume level, the adjustment is complete. To exit this menu, press the ⁄/¤ Navigation Button o until the on-screen ➔ cursor is next to the BACK TO MASTER MENU line, and then press the Set Button q to return to the MASTER MENU. To adjust the output levels at any time using the remote control and semi-OSD messages, first press the Test Button f. As soon as the button is pressed, the test tone will begin to circulate as indicated earlier. The correct channel from which the test noise should be heard will be shown on the video screen and the Lower Display Line &. While the test noise is circulating, the proper channel position will also be indicated in the Speaker/ Channel Input Indicators % by a blinking letter within the correct channel. To adjust the output level, press the ⁄/¤ Navigation Button o until the desired level is heard. Once the buttons are released, the test noise will begin to circulate again in five seconds. When all channels have the same output level, press the Test Button f again to complete the process. NOTE: Output level adjustment is not available for the VMAx or Surround Off modes. Additional Input Adjustments After one input has been adjusted for Surround mode, digital input (if any), speaker type, and output levels, go back to the IN/OUT SETUP line on the MASTER MENU (Figure 1) and enter the settings for each input you will use. In most cases, only the digital input and surround mode will be different from one input to the next, while the other settings will usually be the same. If you wish to have different speaker "size" and crossover settings for an input, remember to change the BASS MGR setting to INDEPENDENT, as shown on page 26. When all settings and adjustments have been made, press the OSD Button U to return to normal operation of the DPR. Once the settings outlined on the previous pages have been made, the DPR 1005 is ready for operation. While there are some additional settings to be made, these are best done after you have had an opportunity to listen to a variety of sources and different kinds of program material. These advanced settings are described on pages 37 and 38 of this manual. In addition, any of the settings made in the initial configuration of the unit may be changed at any time. As you add new or different sources or speakers, or if you wish to change a setting to better reflect your listening taste, simply follow the instructions for changing the settings for that parameter as shown in this section. Having completed the setup and configuration process for your DPR 1005, you are about to experience the finest in music and home theater listening. Enjoy! SYSTEM CONFIGURATION 29
