Setting up your CT-X
In this section, we’ll configure the CT-X to transmit the signals at their appropriate frequencies
and at recommended levels.
You can use a spectrum analyzer to iteratively
set the levels of each signal at their
appropriate levels.
To change a setting in the menus, select
ENTER
to edit a setting, use
SELECT

Once you have the network settings
configured and have an IP address for your CT-
X, you can set it up remotely. See
