[. . . ] The settings will reset, and you may now continue to make any needed changes following the instructions shown below. Once you make the first change to the default settings, the setting on the DELAY RESET line will return to OFF, indicating that the factory defaults are no longer in effect. Now the cursor will be at the CEN line so that the delay for the center speaker may be set. Press the < / > Buttons EF until the distance from the main listening position to the center speaker is entered. Repeat the procedure for all active speaker positions by pressing the ¤ Button EF again and use the < / > Buttons EF to change the setting. If you have already run Ezset/EQ, return to the settings established by the automated system by pressing the //¤ Navigation Button EF until the cursor is pointing to the EZSET SETTINGS line. Next, press the </> Navigation Button EF so that O N is highlighted in reverse video. The settings will be resent to the values calculated by Ezset/EQ, and the menu will be locked so that the settings may not be changed. To go back into the menu and make any manual changes to one or more channels, you must first return the cursor to the EZSET SETTINGS line and press the </> Navigation Button EF so that OFF is highlighted in reverse video. When the delay time for all speaker positions has been set you may return to the master menu by pressing the //¤ Navigation Button EF until the cursor is pointing to BACK T O MANUAL SETUP and then pressing the Set Button FQ. Note that the delay settings may also be adjusted at any time when the Dolby Digital or Dolby Pro Logic II modes are in use by pressing the Delay button on the remote Z. In the MAN mode, the test tone will also start immediately, but the tone will only be moved to another channel by pressing the //¤ Navigation Button EF. When the manual sequencing mode is active, the tone is turned off by pressing the //¤ Navigation Button EF until the cursor is pointing to the TEST TONE line and the </> Navigation Button EF is then pressed to select OFF in the highlighted video. The final option for tone adjustment using the menu system is to not use the internal test tone at all. To do this, simply use the //¤ Navigation Button EF to change the channel and then use the //¤ Navigation Button EF to change the output level. When making channel output adjustments without the internal test tone we strongly recommend that you use a test disc in the "repeat" mode on your DVD or CD player so that the signal being used is constant throughout the adjustment process. NOTE: The subwoofer output level is not adjustable using the test tone. To change the subwoofer level, follow the steps for Output Level Trim Adjustment on page 46. When all channels have an equal volume level, the adjustment is complete. Now turn the Volume d down to about -40dB, otherwise the listening level may be too high as soon as the source's music starts to play. To exit this menu, press the //¤ buttons EF until the on-screen cursor is next to the BACK T O MANUAL SETUP line, and then press the Set Button FQ to return to the MANUAL SETUP. Figure 22 To provide the maximum flexibility, channel output level adjustments may be made either with or without the internal test tone, and when the tone is in use, it may be programmed to automatically circulate among the active channels or to only move from one channel to the next on your command. When the CHANNEL ADJUST menu appears, we recommend that you first run the test tone once in the automatic mode to verify that the speakers have been properly connected.
