Configuration
5.3.2 Zone Tab
The
Zone Tab
enables installation zones to be defined and
named, and provides access to further sub-menus. Zones
might be bar or restaurant areas for example, or different
rooms in a home. For all Zone Tab menus, the installation zone
under configuration is selected by highlighting one of the zone
identifiers (A, B, C or D) at the top of the page.

Zone Tab
.
•
The
Source
menu option enables inputs to be assigned to
zones.
•
The
GPIO Volume Control
option enables external volume
control to be applied to individual zones. The GPIO
configuration menu can be found under the
Settings Tab
.
•
The
Compressor
option enables default or custom signal
compression to be applied to individual installation zones.
Note:: Compression can be useful to reduce the volume difference
between loud and quiet audio material. The lower the compression
threshold is set, the more the difference between loud and soft will
be reduced. The overall zone volume may need to be increased
when compression is used. The default compression parameters are
appropriate for most installations.
5.3.3 Output Tab
The
Output Tab
enables amplifier outputs to be named and
provides access to further sub-menus. For all Output Tab
menus, the amplifier output under configuration is selected
by highlighting one of the output identifiers (1, 2, 3 or 4) at the
top of the display. The
Output Tab
also enables
Speaker Preset
configurations to be created, exported, imported or cleared.

Output Tab
.
Note:: The number of individual outputs available for configuration
will depend on the Danley DSA amplifier model and the input, zone
and output mode configuration.
•
The
Routing
menu enables zones to be assigned to amplifier
outputs.
Note:: Routing for zones specified as stereo will automatically offer
three output options: left channel, right channel or summed mono.
The summed mono signal can potentially be used to drive a mono
subwoofer.
• The
Delay
menu enables delay to be applied to individual
amplifier outputs.
•
The
Equalizer
menu enables parametric equalization to be
applied to individual amplifier outputs. Equalizer settings
configured for one amplifier output can be copied and
applied to other outputs.
