Configuring the DCR600IIReceiver 38 Once the speakers have been placed in the room and connected, the remaining steps in the setup process are to calibrate the output levels and set the delay times used by the surround sound processor. The DCR600 IIfeatures an advanced memory system that enables you to establish different configurations for the speaker configuration, surround mode, delay times and output levels for each input source. This flexibility enables you to custom-tailor the way in which you listen to each source and have the DCR600 IImemorize those settings. This means, for example, that you may use different output levels or trims for different sources, or set different speaker con- figurations with the resultant changes to the bass management system. Once these settings are made, they will automatically be recalled whenever you select that input. The factory default settings for the DCR600 II have all inputs (except DVD) configured for an analog source, and stereo as the surround mode. Before using the unit, you will probably want to change the settings for most inputs so that they are properly configured to reflect the use of digital or analog inputs, and the surround mode specifics. Remember that since the DCR600 IImemorizes the settings for each input individually, you will need to make these adjust- ments for each input used. However, once they are made, further adjustment is only required when system components are changed. Once you have completed the settings for the first input, many settings may be duplicated for the remaining inputs. Remember that once the settings are made for one input, they must be made for all other input sources in your system. Memory Backup This product is equipped with a memory backup system that preserves the system configuration information and tuner presets if the unit is acci- dentally unplugged or subjected to a power out- age. This memory will last for approximately two weeks, after which time all information must be reentered. Configuring the Speakers The following instructions are to be followed only if the DCR600II is NOT used with JBL SCS135P, or if speaker settings have been accidently altered from the default settings, which are SMALLfor all positions with the subwoofer set to SUB L/R+LFE. Otherwise, go to the output level adjustments section on page 39. Foreach of these settings use the LARGEsetting if the speakers for a particular position are tra- ditional full-range loudspeakers that are capable of reproducing sounds below 100Hz. Use the SMALLsetting for smaller, frequency-limited satellite speakers that do not reproduce sounds below 100Hz. Note that when “Small” speakers are used, a subwoofer is required to reproduce low-frequency sounds. Remember that the “Large” and “Small” descriptions do not refer to the actual physical size of the speakers, but their ability to reproduce low-frequency sounds. If you are in doubt as to which category describes your speakers, consult the specifica- tions in the speakers’ owner’s manual, or ask your dealer. With the DCR600 IIturned on, follow these steps to configure the speakers: 1. Put the DCR600IIin the Dolby Pro Logic II mode by pressing the Surround Mode Selector 7on the front panel or by pressing the Surround Mode Selector ton the remote, until DOLBY PROLOGIC II– MOVIESappears in the Main Infor- mation Display Uand the PRO LOGIC II Indicator Flights. 2.Press the Speaker ButtonÔon the front panel. The words FNT SPEAKERwill appear in the Main Information Display U. 3.Press the Set Button^. 4.Press the Selector Buttons5on the front panel until either LARGEor SMALL appears, matching the type of speakers you have at the front-left and front-right positions, as described by the definitions shown in the preceding section. When SMALLis selected, low-frequency sounds will be sent to the subwoofer output only. Note that if you choose this option, and there is no subwoofer connected, you will not hear any low-frequency sounds from the front channels. When LARGEis selected, a full-range output will be sent to the front-left and front-right outputs, and NO low-frequency signals will be sent to the subwoofer output. 5.When you have completed your selection for the front channel, press the Set Button^, and then press the Selector Buttons5on the front panel to change the display to CEN SPEAKER. 6.Press the Set Button^again, and use the Selector Buttons5on the front panel, to select the option that best describes your sys- tem, based on the speaker definitions shown in the preceding section. When CEN SMALLis selected, low- frequency center-channel sounds will be sent to the subwoofer output only. Note that if you choose this option and there is no subwoofer connected, you will not hear any low-frequency sounds from the center channel speaker. When CEN LARGEis selected, a full-range output will be sent to the center-speaker output, and NO center-channel signal will be sent to the subwoofer output. This selection is not available when Logic 7 has been selected as the surround mode. When CEN NONEis selected, no signals will be sent to the center-channel output. The receiver will operate in a “phantom” center- channel mode and center-channel information will be sent to the front-left and front-right channel outputs. 7.When you have completed your selection for the center channel, press the Set Button^, and then press the Selector Buttons5on the front panel to change the display to SUR SPEAKER. 8.Press the Set Button^again, and then use the Selector Buttons5on the front panel to select the option that best describes your system, based on the speaker definitions shown in the preceding section. When SUR SMALLis selected, low- frequency surround-channel sounds will be sent to the subwoofer output only. Note that if you choose this option and there is no sub- woofer connected, you will not hear any low- frequency sounds from the surround speaker. When SUR LARGEis selected, a full-range output will be sent to the surround-channel outputs, and NO surround-channel signals will be sent to the subwoofer output. When SUR NONEis selected, surround sound information will be split between the front-left and front-right outputs. Note that for optimal performance when no surround speakers are in use, the Dolby 3 Stereo mode should be used instead of Dolby Pro Logic II.
39 9. When you have completed your selection for the surround channel, press the Set Button^, and then press the Selector Buttons5 on the front panel to change the display to S-WSPEAKER. 10 .Press the Set Button^,and then press the Selector Buttons5on the front panel to select the option that best describes your system. The choices available for the subwoofer position will depend on the settings for the other speakers, particularly the front left/right positions. If the front left/right speakers are set to SMALL, the subwoofer will automatically be set to SUB, which is the “on” position. If the front left/right speakers are set to LARGE, three options are available: •If no subwoofer is connected to the DCR600II, press the Selector Buttons5so that SUB NONEappears in the Main Information Display U. When this option is selected, all bass information will be routed to the front left/right “main” speakers. •If a subwoofer is connected to the DCR600II, you have the option to have the front left/right “main” speakers reproduce bass frequencies at all times, and have the sub- woofer operate only when the DCR600 IIis being used with a digital source that contains a dedicated Low-Frequency Effects, or LFE, soundtrack. This allows you to use both your main and subwoofer speakers to take advan- tage of the special bass created for certain movies. Press the Selector Buttons5so that SUB (LFE)appears in the Main Information Display U. •If a subwoofer is connected and you wish to use it for bass reproduction in conjunction with the main front left/right speakers, regardless of the type of program source or surround mode you are listening to, press the Selector Buttons5so that SUB L/R+LFEappears in the Main Information Display U. When this option is selected, a “complete” feed will be sent to the front left/right “main” speakers, and the subwoofer will receive the bass frequencies. 11.When all speaker selections have been made, press the Set Button^to return to normal operation. Adjusting the Output Levels Output level adjustment is a key part of the configuration process for any surround sound product. It is particularly important for a Dolby Digital receiver such as the DCR600 II, as correct outputs will ensure that you hear soundtracks in their proper place with the proper directionality and intensity. IMPORTANT NOTE: Listeners are often confused about the operation of the surround channels. While some assume that sound should always be coming from each speaker, most of the time there will be little or no sound in the surround channels. This is because they are only used when a movie director or sound mixer specifically places sound there to create ambience or a special effect, or to continue action from the front of the room to the rear. When the output levels are properly set, it is normal for surround speakers to operate only occasionally. Artificially increasing the volume to the rear speakers may destroy the illusion of an enveloping sound field that duplicates the way you hear sound in a movie theater or con- cert hall. Before beginning the adjustment process, make certain that all speaker connections have been properly made. The system volume should be set to the level that you will use during a typical listening session. The Bass and Treble controls should be set to 0dB, or press the Tone Mode Button 6to disable them. To adjust the Bass and Treble controls, press the Tone Mode Button 6, followed by the Set Button^, and use the Selector Buttons5to adjust the Bass, then Treble, by up to plus or minus 10dB. To assist in making speaker configuration set- tings, the icons in the Speaker/Channel Input Indicators Mchange as the speaker type is selected at each position. When only the center icon box containing the abbreviation for the speaker position is lit, the speaker is set for “Small.” When the inner box and the two outer boxes are lit, the speakeris set for “Large.” When no indicator appears at a speaker location, that position is set for “None” or “No” speaker. For example, in the following figure, the front left and front right speakers are set for LARGE, the center, surround left (SL) and surround right (SR) speakers are set for SMALL, and a subwoofer is set, as shown by the box with the abbreviation“LFE”, which stands for “low-frequency effects.”To adjust and calibrate the output levels, follow these steps. For accurate calibration, it is a good idea to make these adjustments while seated in your favorite listening position: 1. Put the DCR600IIin the Dolby Pro Logic II mode by pressing the Surround Mode Selector7 on the front panel, or by pressing the Surround Mode Selector ton the remote, until DOLBY PRO LOGIC II– MOVIES appears in the Main Information Display U and the PRO LOGIC IIIndicatorFlights up. 2.Press the Test Buttonqon the remote. T-T FL 0dBwill appear in the Main Information Display U and the letters FL will flash once each second. 3. The test noise will immediately begin to circulate in the speakers in a clockwise rotation, pausing at each position for three seconds. As the test noise rotates, the speaker position will be shown in the Main Information Display U . NOTE:This is a good time to verify that the speakers have been properly connected. As the test noise circulates, listen to make certain that the sound comes from the speaker position shown in the Main Information Display. If the sound from a speaker location does NOT match the position indicated in the display, turn the DCR600 IIoff using the Main Power Switch 1and check the speaker wiring to make certain that each speaker is connected to the correct output terminal. 4. After checking for speaker placement, let the test noise circulate, and listen to see which channels sound louder than the others. Use the front left ( FLin the display) speaker as a reference by adjusting the volume to a com- fortable level while the test tone is at the front left speaker. For the other channels, do not adjust the volume. Instead, press the ⁄/¤ Buttonsyon the remote or the Selector Buttons5on the front panel for each channel to begin to bring them to the same level. Note that when one of the buttons is pushed, the test noise circulation will pause Configuring the DCR600IIReceiver
40 Configuring the DCR600IIReceiver at the channel being adjusted to give you time to make the adjustment. When you release the button, the circulation will resume after 15 seconds. 5. Continue to adjust the individual speakers until they all have the same volume. Note that adjustments should be made with the ⁄/¤ Buttonsyon the remote or the Selector Buttons5on the front panel only, NOT the main volume controls, except when setting the reference level of the front left speaker. If you are using a sound pressure (SPL) meter for precise level adjustment, set the volume so that the meter reads 75dB, C-Weighting Slow. NOTE: The subwoofer output level is not adjustable using the test tone. To change the subwoofer level, press the Channel Select Button Óxwhile playing a favorite selec- tion, and use the ⁄/¤ Buttonsyor Selector Buttons5to choose the subwoofer channel, followed by the Set Button ^to select it, and then the ⁄/¤ Buttonsy or Selector Buttons 5to adjust the channel outputs to a desired level, and the Set Button ^to memorize the change. 6. When you have adjusted the outputs so that all channels have the same level, press the Set Buttonpˆto complete the adjust- ment. NOTE: The output levels may be separately trimmed for each digital and analog surround mode. If you wish to have different trim levels for a specific mode, select that mode and follow the instructions in steps 2 through 5 above. Setting Delay Times Due to the different distances between the front-channel speakers and the listening posi- tion compared to the surround speakers and the listening position, the amount of time it takes for sound to reach your ears from the front or surround speakers is different. You may com- pensate for this difference through the use of the delay settings to adjust the timing to match the specific speaker placement and acoustic conditions in your listening room or home theater. The factory setting is appropriate for most rooms, but some installations create an uncom- mon distance between the front and surround speakers that may cause the arrival of front-channel sounds to become disconnected from surround-channel sounds. To resynchronize the front and surround channels, follow these steps: 1. Measure the distance from the listening/ viewing position to the front speakers. 2. Measure the distance from the listening/ viewing position to the surround speakers. 3. Subtract the distance to the surround speakers from the distance to the front speakers. a.When setting the delay time for the Dolby Digital surround modes, the optimal delay time is the result of that subtraction. For example, if the front speakers are 10 feet away and the surround speakers are five feet away, the optimal delay time is figured as 10–5=5. Thus, in this example, the delay time for Dolby Digital should be set at five milliseconds. b. When setting the delay time for the Dolby Pro Logic II mode, take the result of the subtraction and add 15 to obtain the opti- mal delay time. For example, if the front speakers are 10 feet away and the sur- round speakers are five feet away, the opti- mal delay time is figured as 10–5+15=20. Thus, in this example, the Pro Logic II delay should be set at 20 milliseconds. NOTE: The Theater and Hall modes use a fixed, nonadjustable delay time. The Dolby Digital mode also includes a separate setting for the center channel delay mode, since the discrete nature of these signals makes the location of the center channel speaker more critical. To calculate the delay for the center channel, measure the distance from the preferred listening position in the center of the room to both the center channel speaker and either the left or right speaker. If the distances are equal, no further adjustment is required and the center delay should be set to zero. If the distance to the front speakers is greater than the distance to the center speaker, you may wish to reposition the speakers by moving the front-left and front-right speakers closer to the listening position or the center speaker further away from the listening position.If repositioning of the speakers is not possible, adjust the center delay time, adding one millisecond of center channel delay for every foot closer to the listening position the center speaker is than the front speakers. For example, if the front-left and front-right speakers are each 10 feet from the listening position and the center channel speaker is eight feet away, the delay is figured as 10–8=2, suggesting an opti- mal center delay of two milliseconds. To set the delay times, follow these steps: 1. Put the DCR600IIin the Dolby Pro Logic II mode by pressing the Surround Mode Selector 7on the front panel or by pressing the Surround Mode Selectorton the remote,until DOLBY PRO LOGIC II– MOVIESappears in the Main Information Display Uand the PRO LOGIC II Indicator Flights up. 2. Press the Delay Button&on the remote or front panel. The words SDELAY TIME will appear in the Main Information Display U. 3. Press the Set Button^. 4.Adjust the delay time by pressing the ⁄/¤ Buttonsyon the remote or the Selector Buttons5on the front panel until the delay time figure calculated using the formula entered above appears in the display. 5. If only analog sources will be used, no adjust- ment is needed for the center channel delay. In that case, press the Set Button^to enter the surround delay settings into the receiver’s memory. However, if you will be using digital sources and the calculations out- lined above indicate that the center channel delay requires an adjustment, continue with the following steps. 6. Before setting the center channel delay time, make certain that a digital source such as the DVD600 IIhas been selected. If a digital source is playing, COAXIALEor OPTICALBwill appear in the Main Information Display (. If a digital source is already connected and playing,press the Delay Button&and then the ⁄/¤Buttonson the remote yor the front panel Selector Buttons 5until the words CDELAY TIME appear in the Main Information DisplayU and proceed to Step 10. If a digital source is not playing, follow Steps 7 through 10.
