QUICK START

Look around to make sure no one catches you reading this. 

You’re aware this is the manual aren’t you? Wow! Most people 

only get about this far in a manual, but there are a few impor-

tant things you should know about the AVA 22d. So please keep 

reading. These few points are summarized in this Cliff Note 

version of the manual.

The first time you power the AVA 22d it is in 

BYPASS

, and 

functions like an expensive wire. This is useful for initial trouble-

shooting and allows for convenient verification of signal flow. 

Punching the 

BYPASS

 buttons and extinguishing their LEDs 

will activate the Delays.

ADJUSTING SENSITIVITY—

First apply a signal with 

nominal input level and adjust the 

SENSITIVITY

 controls so 

the red 

CLIP LED

s just light, then back off so the LEDs do not 

turn on, even with high signal peaks.

SETTING DELAY—

Now that the input signal is cali-

brated, select 

LINK

 mode (

LINK LED

on

) for stereo operation, 

or turn off 

LINK

 mode for dual mono operation. Adjust the 

up/down buttons until the LED display shows the desired Delay.

WEAR PARTS:

 This product contains no wear parts.

STORING DELAY—

Press the 

STORE

 button (the 

STORE LED

 turns 

off

). This stores the current Delay values 

into each channel’s current Memory (A or B). The current 

Memory is indicated by the lit 

MEMORY LED

 for each chan-

nel. Both channel’s current Delay values are stored with each 

press of the 

STORE

 button. The broadcast Mode (NTSC or 

PAL/SECAM) is also stored with the Delay value.

RECALLING DELAY—

To recall a stored Memory, press 

RECALL

. Each press of this button alternately recalls stored 

Memories (A then B then A…).

Never connect anything except an approved Rane power 

supply to the thing that looks like a telephone jack on the 

rear of the AVA 22d.

 This is an AC input and requires special 

attention if you do not have a power supply exactly like the one 

originally packed with your unit. See the full explanation of the 

power supply requirements elsewhere in this manual.
