Choosing A Standard Setting - Meridian 3100 Installation And User Manual

Choosing a standard setting

Unless you are using a pair of 3100 loudspeakers in a 2-channel system, you will
need to confi gure them as described in this section.
The DSP loudspeakers provide the following fi ve alternative standard settings, called
Types, which confi gure all aspects of the DSP loudspeakers into the most commonly
needed confi gurations:
Type Description
1 Selects D1 for all sources. For use with a stereo system; eg a CD or DVD player such as
the G08 or G91.
5 For use with a CD player connected to D1; all other sources use D2.
6 For use with a Meridian Surround Controller.
7 For use in a second room.
8 For use in the second or third room of a three-room system.
Types 2, 3, and 4 are for compatibility with 200/600 series units.
In all cases except Type 5, the D1 input is used for all sources.
Choosing one of the standard settings overrides any other confi guration you may
have performed, and so can be used to reset the confi guration of the speakers.
To select a standard setting
• Switch off the DSP loudspeaker.
• Turn on the power again while holding down the key on the remote
corresponding to the Type you want to use.
The display will show the Type number. For example:
• Release the remote key. The display shows:
• Press A or V to specify the speaker position from the following options:
L.: Left ,R.: Right, C.: Centre, S.L.: Left surround, S.R: Right surround.
You should then select one loudspeaker to be the master; this will normally be the
centre channel. Each other 3100 loudspeaker should be confi gured as a slave as
follows.
• Press the green > (Play) key on the remote.
