HD621 HDMI Audio Processor
User Guide
You can configure the HD621 using the Meridian Configuration
Program, a Windows application that is used to set up Meridian
components and systems. For details on how to use it, see its
built-in help files. You can also download its User Guide from
the Support section of the Meridian Web Site at:
http://www.meridian-audio.com/
The Meridian Configuration Program is installed by the Common
Installer which can also be downloaded from the Support
section of the web site.
Connections
Connect your computer to the HD621 via RS232 and run the
Meridian Configuration Program.
The HD621 is set up in the same way as any other Meridian
component.
Note: the HD621 can act as a Controller. However you will
only use it as such in a non-Meridian system. If you select the
HD621 as the controller in a Meridian system, the available
inputs on a Meridian processor you add subsequently will be
limited to those defined for the HD621.
To configure the capabilities of the HD621, display the
Properties
dialog for the product.
