MANUAL
Opens the MANUAL speaker setup menu, which allows the manual
selection of the speaker distances, crossover points, and output
levels. See the next section, “Manual Speaker SetUp”, for more
details.
SEMI AUTOCAL
Selects the SEMI AUTOCAL procedure, which automatically sets the
speaker distances and output levels, as well as performing system
equalization adjustments. The crossover points for each speaker must
be manually set before this procedure can be run. See the next
section, “Manual Speaker Setup”, for more information on how to
set the crossover points.
Note: If the system includes the JBL BassQ subwoofer room mode
corrector, you must enable the BassQ parameter in the AV2 Setup menu
and run the JBL BassQ procedure BEFORE running the SEMI AUTOCAL
procedure. Activating the BassQ parameter optimizes the delay and
Autocal settings for use with the JBL BassQ system.
After running the JBL BassQ procedure, you must set the subwoofer
output level (the AUTOCAL procedure skips over the Subwoofer test as
the BassQ procedure is more accurate for subwoofers) and then you can
run the SEMI AUTOCAL procedure.
If the SEMI AUTOCAL procedure has already been run, set the Auto EQ
parameter to Off and then run the JBL BassQ procedure. The SEMI
AUTOCAL procedure must be run again AFTER the JBL BassQ procedure is
complete. Ensure that the JBL BassQ parameter is set to “Yes” BEFORE
running either procedure.
Performing the Semi Autocal Procedure:
In order to perform this test, the following initial setup is required:
•
All of the speakers are connected to the AV2 and positioned in
the listening space.
•
The crossover points for each speaker are set through the
MANUAL SETUP menu. See the following section, “Manual
Speaker Setup”, for information on how to manually set the
crossover points.
•
A monitor is connected to the AV2 for viewing the OSD during
the procedure.
•
The microphone, included with the AV2, must be connected to
the rear panel microphone input connector and positioned in
the primary listening position.
For best results, install the microphone onto the accompanying rod by
threading the two parts together and hold or place it in the primary
listening position. Use a microphone stand or tripod if necessary.
The Semi Autocal procedure is performed in the same manner as the
Full Autocal procedure. Refer to “Performing the Full Autocal
Procedure” for more details.
CAUTION!
DO NOT place the microphone too close to the speakers
during the autocal procedure. If the microphone is within
one foot of the speaker, the test tones that are output
during the autocal procedure could cause a feedback loop
that may damage the speaker. We assume no responsi-
bility for speaker damage.
