Choosing centre, left or right
If you have Typed the speaker with a 6, then the 'Cen.y' option is enabled.
This tells the speaker that there is a centre in the system and enables the
option to make the DSP5000 into a centre.
If you Typed the speaker with a number other than 6 then the 'Cen.n'
option is selected and you do not get the 'centre' choice in this section.
To change the speaker from left to right, or vice versa.
1. Press the menu n n or s s on the remote control
The choices offered are L, r, C, LS, RS (for left and right surround).
Choosing master or slave
To change a master to a slave, or back again:
1. Press Play on the remote control
r. S.
This display indicates a right slave.
Completing Type
When you are happy with your left/right and master/slave choices for this
speaker:
1. Switch off the DSP5000, using the power switch on the back
2. After a second, switch the DSP5000's power on again
Note Ensure that you have set the two speakers to opposite settings. One
must be left, the other right; similarly one must be the master and the
other a slave.
3. Make a note of your choices by marking both speakers on the back, in
the area provided on the label. Use a pencil so that you can change
the marking in future.
You now have your speakers set up in the start Type of your choice. The
following sections explain how to modify this setting to fine-tune the
system.
Note Under normal circumstances, you should not switch on the
DSP5000s while any key on the MSR is being pressed. If you do this, you
may accidentally select a new Type and change any previous
programming.
The Types are summarised in Appendix 1.
Config is a fine-tuning customising process carried out only on the master.
It will not cause any difficulty if you accidentally go to Config for a slave,
since the only options offered there will be left/right and master/slave.
In Config you can make choices about the way in which your system
responds to source-key selections. The important feature of Config
(differentiating it from Type) is that you can use it to change any setting of
the DSP5000 without erasing all the other setup choices you may have
made. Think of it as a configuration editor.
Config has three sorts of menu:
root menu
system menu
source menus
