Press > or < until you see a

Using the diagram you completed at the start of this section,
calculate the correct delay as follows:
For measurements in inches:
For measurements in cm:
where distance is the distance to the speaker you are setting up,
and furthest is the distance to the furthest speaker.
For example, if the main left speaker is 120" (300cm) from the
listening position, and the furthest speaker is 180" (450cm)
away, set the delay for the main left speaker to +5.0.
Note that when you are setting up the furthest speaker its delay
should work out to be zero.
Repeat this for each of the speakers in your layout.
