    9.3. Enabling the ARC Function Notes • The ARC filter is created on the output channel selected with the Assignment switches at the ARC measurement. • The ARC filter previously set on the output channel will be updated by the newly created ARC filter after the ARC measurement.
  • Page 14 Step 2. Connect a measuring microphone. The microphone for normal use can be used. 2-1. Connect the microphone to the phone jack or removable terminal block of MONO IN 1/ARC on the rear panel. 2-2. Set the input sensitivity selector switch to the appropriate position depending on the microphone to be connected.
  • Page 15 When the indicator lights red Input signal is too big. • Check the position of the input sensitivity selector switch on the unit's rear panel. Try to set the switch to "LINE." Step 4. Select the output channel. Press in the MONO 1’s assignment switch corresponding to the output channel to which the ARC filter is set.
