SETUPJBL Synthesis 3-423. When the desired parameter is highlighted, press the arrow to select this parameter. A horizontal bar graph will open on the on-screen and front panel displays. 4. When the horizontal bar graph opens, follow the instructions on page 2-11 to adjust the selected parameter. When the SPL meter is set to “C” weighting and “SLOW” response, output levels should be adjusted to achieve a 75dB SPL meter reading from the primary listening position. When the SPL meter is not set to “C” weighting and “SLOW” response, output levels should be adjusted to achieve the appropriate SPL meter reading from the primary listening position. 5. When the desired adjustments have been made, press the arrow to close the horizontal bar graph and return to the SPEAKER LEVEL ADJUST or DACS CALIBRATION menu. When the internal noise test is conducted, the internal noise test will continue, and automatic scrolling will resume.

When the internal noise test is conducted, set the SPL meter to “C” weighting and “SLOW” response. When DACS calibration is conducted, set the SPL meter according to the DACS Installers Manual or audio calibration disc instructions. If no setting is specified, set the SPL meter to “C” weighting and “SLOW” response. 2.

SETUPJBL Synthesis 3-44 BASS PEAK LIMITER Opens the BASS PEAK LIMITER menu shown above, which can be used to set amplitude limits for all speakers to which low frequencies are redirected, including the subwoofer. The SDP-5 is equipped with an internal limiter that prevents low- frequency output signals from exceeding a designated level. This is essential for Dolby Digital and dts(-ES) input sources that produce low-frequency peaks at much higher levels than 2-channel sources. In home theaters, the subwoofer and its associated amplifier might not be able to reproduce these levels without overloading. Default Possible Parameter Setting Settings CAL NOISE ON ON, OFF SUB LIMITER OFF ON, OFF SUB LIMIT ADJ 100dB 75 to 120dB BASS PEAK LIMITERLEVELS CALIBRATIONSPEAKERSSETUP CAL NOISEON, OFF Determines whether the bass peak limiter is set with an internal or external source. When set to ON, the SDP-5 activates an internal calibration noise signal to set the limiter. When set to OFF, the SDP-5 deactivates the internal calibration noise test signal. An external calibration source such as an audio calibration disc is required to generate a noise signal to set the bass peak limiter.
