Reference Levels and Line Up Features

The AERO.qc is designed to support a standard reference level of -20dBFS via its digital
inputs. Other levels can be supported as the slow-moving Input AGC will easily compen-
sate for any level differences. The AERO.qc contains a host of built in signal generation
capabilities that are useful for both level calibration of downstream equipment, and for
channel identification. Please see Chapter 4 for detailed information.

Powering Up and Shutting Down

With the unit plugged in to a valid AC power source, press the Left, Up, and Right posi-
tions on the RIGHT navigation ring (i.e. a thumb on the 11 0'clock and 2 o'clock posi-
tions). The Linear Acoustic logo blue LEDs will illuminate first and the unit will then
power on normally.
Shutting down is exactly the same: press the Left, Up, and Right positions on the RIGHT
navigation ring (i.e. a thumb on the 11 0'clock and 2 o'clock positions). The screen will
show the shutdown sequence, and will then go blank. A few seconds later, the Linear
Acoustic logo backlight will go off and the bypass relays will close and the unit is now pow-
ered off.
If there is a need to bypass the unit, the best way is via Master Bypass in the System Settings
menu.

out specific instructions from the factory!
