day of the week, turn the jog wheel until the day of the week you want is displayed. Now press the
Select Up button.
The month indicator is now highlighted. For example, if a 4 is displayed, it indicates that the fourth

Continue using the same procedure to correctly set the hour, minutes and seconds you want Daylight
Savings Time to start. At any time, you can go back to correct a previous setting by pushing the
Select Up (to move right) or Select Down(to move left) buttons. When you have finished setting the
seconds, press the Enter button. This sets or modifies the Start Date/Time. To set the End Date/Time,
use the jog wheel to scroll to End Date/Time and use the same procedure to set this function.
Orientation to the Main Menus
Imagine each of the Main Menu buttons as the key to opening the door or each processing function.
Press the Leveler button. You should now see a number of menu choices on the screen. These are all
the functions of the Leveler that are available to you. We will get into these in more detail in just a
few moments. You can switch from a Main Menu to another by just pushing a Main Menu button.
You may also move from a sub-menu to a Main Menu by pressing a Main Menu button a few times
until the desired Main Menu appears.
Let’s move from the Leveler Main Menu. The Unity AM saves you steps by allowing you to navigate
directly between any two Main Menus. Press the Clipping button. We are now looking at the Main
Menu choices for the Clipper. Notice that we did not have to step back to the Home Screen to move
between Main Menus. However, you can use the Escape button to return to the Home Screen any
time you like. Try it now.
The Escape button will always “raise” your operation one level of menu choices. You will find the
Escape button to be very handy and utilized often.
Setting the Unity AM input levels
To further our tour of operation, let’s select and operate a function. All Unity AM units are shipped
with the input levels set at 50%. We can start by adjusting the input audio levels.
Select the Leveler Main Menu by pressing the Leveler button. The top sub-menu is the Input Levels
Sub-menu. If the Input Levels Sub-menu is not highlighted, turn the jog wheel until it is. Press the
Enter button.
Notice two choices, Left Input and Right Input
,
each with a numeric bar graph next to it. The numbers
next to the menu choices represent the percent of the input range you have used from 0% to 100%.
