Press the 

Enter

 key and turn the 

Monitor

 knob to get to the 

Mon Interfaces

 page.  Turn the 

Monitor

 knob to select the first item, “SPL Display Range”.  This setting is used in conjunction 

with the SPL calibration procedure (see Calibration/Outputs).  It sets the SPL display range 
(minimum and maximum) for the Monitor level control.  This setting has no electrical function 
other than to change the display reference.  The actual change takes place when the speaker 
trims are adjusted so that the SPL measured matches the MonitorMax display.  Pressing the 

Enter

 key will toggle through the 5 possible range selections of 25-85dB, 30-90dB, 35-95dB, 40-

100dB, and 45-105dB.  The factory default range is 40-100 dB. 

 

Turn the 

Monitor

 knob to select “SPL Reference Tic”.  The only function of this feature is to move 

the reference Tic on the Monitor bar meter on the MonitorMax LCD.  Turn the 

Monitor

 knob while 

holding the 

Enter

 key to increase or decrease the setting to a minimum of 25 and a maximum of 

105.  The Tic will reflect changes of the SPL Display Range and will disappear at extreme 
settings.  The factory default is 85dB.  

 

Turn the 

Monitor

 knob to select “SPL Default”.  This sets the user preferred level for the Monitor 

control when MonitorMax is powered up.  Turn the 

Monitor

 knob while holding the 

Enter

 key to 

change the level from the minimum to maximum setting allowable within the currently selected 
SPL Display Range.  The factory default setting is 50.  Press 

Exit

 to return to operation mode.
