SYSTEM ADJUSTMENTS
The ASAP1 features an adjustable time delay which varies the
amount of time it takes for the device to revert to the A input
after the B input signal has been discontinued. This delay time
is set using the labelled screw adjustment on the front panel of
the unit. The range is from a few seconds to over a minute. Set
it for somewhat longer times if the video trigger is not used or
the local system is used for classical music or other sources
containing long, quiet passages.
The ASAP1 can be adjusted for input sensitivity using the
labelled screw adjustment on the front panel. As it is turned
clockwise, the sensitivity increases, counterclockwise makes it
less sensitive. The unit should be set for the highest level of sen-
sitivity that allows proper continuous operation. Operate the B
source at a moderate volume then mute the signal (if using a
CD or tape player, put it in pause). The ASAP1 should switch
back to the A source (after the time delay period you set above)
and stay there. If the sensitivity is set too high random switch-
ing may occur as the unit senses the residual noise level of the
B source. Some experimentation may be necessary, but once it
is set properly the ASAP1 will not need readjusting unless the
components are changed.
There are screw adjustments on the front panel for left and
right volume control. Use these controls to reduce the volume
if the B input signal is too loud at a very low setting of the B
source volume control. Otherwise, leave them in the fully clock-
wise position.
