Page 10: Source Setup
Source Setup The KLIMAX KONTROL needs to be configured for all sources it is connected to. Source setup allows you to tell the KLIMAX KONTROL which of the back panel inputs a source is connected to, the type of source connected and allows you to configure each source setup to suit your requirements. - Page 11 Source Setup 4 Change the source type Select the source type to match the name of the key on the handset you wish to use. You can select a source type more than once if you have more than one device of the same type (e.g. two CD players) connected to the KLIMAX KONTROL.
- Page 12 Source Setup 6 Change the volume offset for the source Volume offset is for adjusting the volume of a source in comparison to other sources. You may want to adjust the volume offset for a source if, for example, your tuner sounds quieter than your CD player when played at the same volume setting.
- Page 13 Source Setup 8 Change the unity gain for the source The unity gain setting lets you use the KLIMAX KONTROL in a multi-channel AV system. If you are setting up an AV processor as one of your sources and the front speakers are going to be channelled through the KLIMAX KONTROL, set unity gain to Yes.
