System Configuration

Step 7a. If the measurements are not successful

due to a missing or malfunctioning speaker, the

FAR FIELD EQERRORmessage will

appear as shown in Figure 17e. EzSet/EQ is pro-

grammed to look for speaker pairs at the front

left/front right, surround left/surround right and

surround back left/surround back right positions.

If the test results indicate that one, but not both

of the speakers in any of these pairs is present,

the menu will show

NOnext to the speaker

position where the tests did not report back that

a speaker is present. Should this message appear,

make note of the suspect speaker location, exit

all menus and turn the receiver off. Check all

speaker wire connections and then rerun

EzSet/EQ.

Figure 17e

Step 7b. In some cases, the system may not

function properly due to overly high output

levels. When this occurs, you will see the

message shown in Figure 17f. If you see this

message verify that that the microphone is in the

correct position, and not too close to any one

speaker. Then press the Set Button

to go

back to the

MASTER MENU. From there,

return to the EzSet/EQ system and when you are

once again at the

FAR FIELD MEASURE

screen, reduce the system volume level by 3dB

before trying EzSet/EQ again.

Figure 17f

Step 8. When the Far Field measurements are

completed, the system will ask you to take three

Near Field measurements, one at each front

speaker position. These measurements enable

EzSet/EQ to produce the most accurate settings

for both high and low frequency equalization.

The Near Field measurements are similar to the

Far Field tests, except that the system will

“listen” to only one speaker at a time, rather

than sending the test signals to all speakers in

rotation.

At the

NEAR FIELD EQSELECTmenu

(Figure 17g) that should be on your screen after

completing the instructions in Step 6, press the

Set Button

to start the near field measure-

ments with the front left speaker. If you are

repeating the setup process, you may also use

the

⁄

Navigation Button

to select

any of the three speaker positions shown.

Figure 17g

At the NEAR FIELD EQSELECTmenu

(Figure 17g), you will see an instruction to place

the microphone in a different position than the

one used for the initial Far Field measurements.

This time, place the microphone close to the

speaker to be measured, at a distance of about

60 cm. In addition, the top of the microphone

should be pointed towards the speaker, rather

than pointing up as was done for the Far Field

tests. For the first measurement, place the micro-

phone so that it is close to, and pointing

towards, the front left speaker, and with the on-

screen ➔ cursor pointing to

1.FL

SPEAKER

, and press the Set Button

Step 9. You will now see a Warning message

similar to the one shown in Figure 17c except

that it will contain an option to return to the

NEAR FIELD EQSELECTmenu (Figure

17g) as well as the ability to return to the

MASTER MENU. If you are ready to proceed

with the test, make certain that the microphone

is properly pointed toward the speaker selected

for calibration, press the

›

Navigation Button

so that ONis highlighted and press the Set

Button

Step 10. One short test signal will be sent to the

speaker position being calibrated and after a

slight pause fro the system to calculate the test

results, you will see either a “Near Field

Complete” message or a “Near Field Error”

message. In most cases, the “Complete”

message will appear, in which case you should

proceed to Step 11, if an “Error” message

appears, go to Step 12.

Step 11. If the test results were successful, the

message shown in Figure 17h will appear. In

order to properly calibrate the system, you will

need to run the Near Field tests for all three front

channel speakers (left, center and right). After

running the test for the front left speaker, make

certain that the cursor is pointing towards

BACK TO NEAR FIELDand press the Set

Button

. When you are taken back to the

Near Field Select menu (Figure 17g) where you

should repeat Steps 8 through 11 until all three

front speakers have been calibrated. When that is

done the EzSet/EQ process is complete and you

should press the

Navigation Button

return to the Master Menu.

Figure 17h

Step 12. If a “Near Field Error” message

appears, as shown in Figure 17i, you should

check to make certain that the microphone is

about 60 cm from the speaker being tested and

that the top of the microphone unit is pointing

towards the speaker. You may also have to raise

or lower the master volume to achieve accurate

readings. After checking these two items, as

needed, make certain that the cursor is pointing

to the

BACK TO NEAR FIELDline and

press the Set Button

. This will return you to

the

NEAR FIELD EQSELECTmenu

(Figure 17g) where you should repeat Steps 8

through 11, adjusting the mike placement and

volume level as needed until the

NEAR

FIELD COMPLETE

menu (Figure 17h)

appears after the test tone stops.
