CHECKING THE MICROPHONES
Note the following:
• The RV-8 outputs calibration noise signals between 55dB and
95dB, beginning with 55dB and increasing in 5dB increments
until the microphones detect the required level. If the
calibration noise signal becomes too loud, press the arrow
button to cancel the microphone check.
• Although the calibration noise signal is output at a fixed volume
level, you should set all volume controls for associated compo-
nents (i.e., speakers, subwoofers and power amplifiers) to a
reasonable level before performing automatic calibration.
When the procedure is finished, the RV-8 automatically reverts
to the last volume level that was selected before automatic
calibration began.
• During automatic calibration, you should refer to the on-screen
display instead of the front-panel display, as additional infor-
mation and instructions are available in the on-screen display.
1. Select the SPEAKER SETUP menu CHECK MICROPHONES option,
as shown above.
2. The first CHECK MICROPHONES screen opens in the on-screen
display, indicating the importance of proper microphone
placement to achieve accurate automatic calibration results.
3. Press the arrow button to begin the microphone check. The
following screens appears in the on-screen display as the micro-
phone check is performed:
CHECKING FOR SILENCE
Appears in the on-screen display while
the RV-8 determines the relative noise
level of the listening space and the
internal noise level of the microphones.
After eliminating microphones that are
not detected or not functioning, the RV-8 calculates an average
level for all microphones.
