Installer Settings
VOLUME SWITCH
This 4-position switch allows the installer to place an upper limit on the loudness of the
soundbar. This is helpful, for example, to reduce sound transfer between adjacent rooms in a
hotel with thin walls.
“Max” = loudest
“Low” = quietest
Position
Max Volume Allowed
Max
100%
High
90%
Med
80%
Low
60%
NOTE: This feature is separate from the internal dynamic compressor/limiter DSP algorithm, which automatically
optimizes fidelity and transducer protection (and which cannot be bypassed or adjusted).
A four-position switch (instead of, for example, a fine-tunable dial) allows easily repeatable settings when deploying
soundbars across multiple similar rooms/spaces.
To safely determine the maximum acceptable volume and also to optimize the system by reducing the noise floor, we
recommend taking the following steps:
If the soundbar is set to "Variable Source" mode:
1.
Ensure TV audio can be heard coming from the soundbar
2.
Set the soundbar's "Volume" switch to "Low"
3.
Increase the TV's volume to its maximum allowed setting
4.
If more output is needed, set the soundbar's "Volume" switch to "Medium"
5.
If more output is needed, set the soundbar's "Volume" switch to "High"
6.
If more output is needed, set the soundbar's "Volume" switch to "Max"
If the soundbar is set to "Fixed Source" mode:
1.
Ensure TV audio can be heard coming from the soundbar
2.
Set the soundbar's "Volume" switch to "Low"
3.
Hold the soundbar's "Volume Up" button until the soundbar is turned all the way up (to 60%)
4.
If more output is needed, set the "Volume" switch to "Medium" and turn the soundbar all the way up (to 80%)
5.
If more output is needed, set the "Volume" switch to "High" and turn the soundbar all the way up (to 90%)
6.
If more output is needed, set the "Volume" switch to "Max" and turn the soundbar all the way up (to 100%)
