level. Make sure the video can be seen in the TV monitor.

Step 12

 - Stop or pause the source.

The PT-7010A now needs to be setup correctly to suit
your speakers and system. The SETTINGS (OSD) menu
is used to enter and make three main adjustments:

•  

Speaker Size

•  

Speaker Calibration

•  

Speaker Position

This setup needs to be done when you use your system for
the first time, or if you change anything such as the amplifiers
or speakers, or the speaker position. The calibration is also a
good way to check that your system is working correctly.
These adjustments are made using the OSD as follows:

Step 13

 - Press MENU on the remote to bring up the

MAIN Menu of the OSD on your TV.

Step 14

 - Use the joystick pad left, right, up and down buttons

to navigate through the menus in the next steps.

NOTE: you can quit the OSD at any time by
pressing EXIT on the remote. Any changes
you make will be saved. There is no need to
navigate back through previous pages, unless
you want to make more changes.

When the OSD is active, the PT-7010A front
panel display shows an abbreviated message of where you
currently are in the menus.

Step 15

 

- In the MAIN Menu, select the SETTINGS Menu,

and then the SPEAKERS Menu.

Step 16

 - In the SPEAKERS Menu, select the SIZE Menu.

Use the joystick pad to set the size of each speaker to Small
or Large, or set to OFF for those speakers which are not
present. Return to the SPEAKERS Menu when you are
finished.

Step 17

 - In the SPEAKERS Menu, select the

CALIBRATION Menu to adjust the output of each speaker.

A test noise plays in each selected speaker, and you use the
remote to adjust the volume of each speaker until they are
all playing at the same level. Return to the SPEAKERS
Menu when you are finished. This task can be made easier
and more accurately with a low cost sound level meter. Radio
