be seen that this level setting is done at the
same location as the
Input Gain.
5 Mute
When MUTE is activated, the level will be
reduced by the value preselected in the
Mute
Attenuation
menu.
6 Input Select
In this menu the analog or digital input is
activated. When selecting digital, the 500 C
will be triggered by the signal source, the
internal clock generator is deactivated.
7 Digital Input Select
In this menu the L or R channel may be
selected from the digital datastream. In a nor-
mal stereo-setup the LEFT monitor will have
the selection LEFT and the RIGHT monitor
will be selected for RIGHT.
In the setting „LEFT + RIGHT“ the system
will generate and reproduce a mono sum of
both channels.
8 Speaker Select
In this menu the loudspeaker parameter setup
will be recalled. At „
Monitor
“ and „
Subwoofer
“
the desired presets can be selected by
pressing the +/- increment keys, followed by
ENTER to load the settings. A signal beep
will confirm this selection, which also can be
made during reproduction of a signal. If the
selected loudspeaker parameter setup can
not be recalled, the system will respond with
the notice: „not available“ after pressing the
ENTER key. The parameters previously set
will remain active in this case.
9 Master Delay
In this menu the signal fed through the O 500
C can be delayed either in milliseconds or
meters. The shortest delaytime is determined
by the basic delay time of the digital controller
which depends on the selected loudspeaker
parameter setup. Based on that basic time
the delaytime may be varied by max. 999 mS,
which is equal to 339,90 meters.
10 Delay Offset
This menu adjusts the overall delay of the
monitor in very small steps. It will adjust the
basic delaytime of the monitor in a
multichannel setup.
11 Channel Mute
In this menu step each signal path (High, Mid,
Low and the optional subwoofer) can be
muted. Changing the status (Mute on/off) is
made by the +/- increment keys of the remote
control.
12 Channel Gain
This menu adjusts the gain of every path by
max. +6/-18 dB. Regarding the selection of
the channel, the same options are provided
as described above.
13 Channel Phase Invert
In this menu the pase of everey signal path
can be inverted by 180°. Here the same
options for adjustments are provided as in
the previous menus.
14 Channel Delay
This menu adjusts an individual delay time
for every signal path after the electronic
crossover, for example the compensation for
different delay times between the O 500 C
and an optional subwoofer.
15 Delay Link
In this menu the individual signal paths for
the adjustments as described in the
Channel
Delay
menu can be combined for ease of
operation, i.e. adjusting all three signals at
the same time.
16 Limiter
This menu allows for a change of the release-
time constant of the internal peaklimiter which
prevents the system from clipping of the
power amps and from too long excursions of
the cones. The desired value is selected by
pressing the +/- increment keys.
17 PWR Amp -10 dB
When selecting the option „ON“ the gain of
the O 500 C power amps is reduced by 10
dB. When operating the system at low
listening levels this option should be selected
to increase the word length of the digital signal
given to the digital controller’s DACs.
