Setting System Volume Levels
1. Set each D16's channel level to 25%.
2. Raise the volume of all touch panels, touchpads or volume controls to near maximum.
3. Play source program material, such as a CD or a radio station.
4. Have someone step into the room and listen.
5. Enable ACE for all channels. (See ACE Menu on page 20.)
6. On the Volume screen, select the channel that is wired to the speaker where the
person is listening.
7. Slowly adjust Volume Up for this channel until the audio begins to distort, and then
drop the level one or two percentage points.
8. Follow this procedure for all channels to achieve a good balance of sound from the
most used listening position in the zone.
9. Enable or Disable ACE for all applicable channels.
Note: High volume levels can cause clipping and distortion. This can damage the
loudspeaker's components and cause the amplifier to go into protection mode. The
protection circuits will reset when the output signal conditions have returned to normal.
Overdriving the amplifier can damage the amplifier and void the manufacturer's warranty.
