14 FAQ Professional Calibration EQ graphical output Symptom Remedy The reverb characteristics graph after EQ calibration does not appear entirely flat. There are cases where the graph does not appear flat (even when selecting ALL CH ADJ in the Auto MCACC Setup) due to adjustments made to compensate for room characteristics to achieve optimal sound. Areas of the graph may appear identical (before and after) when there is little or no adjustment needed. The graph may appear to have shifted vertically when comparing before and after measurements. EQ adjustments made using the Manual MCACC setup do not appear to change the reverb characteristics graph after EQ calibration. Despite level adjustments being made, the filters used for analysis may not display these adjustments in the reverb characteristics graph after EQ calibration. However, these adjustments are taken into account by the filters dedicated to overall system calibration.

Check whether the receiver's remote control mode is properly set (see Remote Control Mode Setup on page 110 ). Try replacing the batteries in the remote control (see Loading the batteries on page 11 ). Be sure to operate within 7 m (23 ft.) and a 30º angle of the remote sensor on the front panel (see Operating range of remote control unit on page 11 ).
