MANUAL
Opens the MANUAL speaker setup menu, which allows the manual
selection of the speaker distances, cross-over points, and output
levels. See the next section, “Manual Speaker Set-Up”, for more
details.
SEMI AUTOCAL
Selects the SEMI AUTOCAL procedure, which automatically sets the
speaker distances and output levels, as well as performing system
equalization adjustments. The cross-over points for each speaker
must be manually set before this procedure can be run. See the next
section, “Manual Speaker Set-Up”, for more information on how to
set the cross-over points.
Performing the Semi Autocal Procedure:
In order to perform this test, the following initial setup is required:
All of the speakers are connected to the MV-5 and positioned in
the listening space.
The cross-over points for each speaker are set through the
MANUAL setup menu.
Note: See the following section, “Manual Speaker Setup”, for
information on how to manually set the cross-over points.
A monitor is connected to the MV-5 for viewing the OSD
during the procedure.
The microphone, included with the MV-5, must be connected
to the rear panel Microphone connector and positioned in the
primary listening position.
Note: For best results, install the microphone onto the accompanying
rod by threading the two parts together and hold or place in the
primary listening position. Use a microphone stand or tripod if
necessary.
The Semi Autocal procedure is performed in the same manner as the
Full Autocal procedure. Refer to the “Performing the Full Autocal
Procedure” for more details.
CAUTION!
DO NOT place the microphone too close to the speakers
during the autocal procedure. If the microphone is within
one foot of the speaker, the test tones that are output
during the autocal procedure could cause a feedback loop
which may damage the speaker. Lexicon assumes no
responsibility for speaker damage.
FULL AUTOCAL
Selects the FULL AUTOCAL procedure, which automatically sets the
speaker distances, cross-over points, and output levels, as well as
performing system equalization adjustments.
Note: The Full or Semi Autocal settings that are saved to the Preset
locations include the system equalization adjustment values. However,
even if the Auto EQ setting is active, the autocal settings for the system EQ
do NOT apply to certain high bit-rate incoming data streams, such as 176
kHz and 192 kHz PCM.
Performing the Full Autocal Procedure:
In order to perform this test, the following initial setup is required:
All of the speakers are connected to the MV-5 and positioned in
the listening space.
A monitor is connected to the MV-5 for viewing the OSD
during the procedure.
The microphone, included with the MV-5, must be connected
to the rear panel Microphone connector and positioned in the
primary listening position.
