9. SETTING THE ARC FUNCTION
9.1. What is the Automatic Resonance Control (ARC) Function?
It is a function that automatically creates a sound field compensation filter (ARC filter) to improve sound
clarity by measuring the inherent acoustic characteristics in architectural space.
9.2. Outline of the ARC Function Settings
The ARC function automatically creates an ARC filter, thereby reproducing highly clear output sound.
9.2.1. Enabling the ARC function
(See p. 13 for details.)
Note
Before operating the ARC function, check that sound is actually output from the speakers after installation
and connection completion.
Select with the Assignment switches the output channel to which the ARC filter is to be set, hold down the
ARC switch for 3 seconds, then release it when the ARC operation indicator begins to flash.
The ARC measurement starts.
The ARC filter is set when the measurement has finished, enabling the ARC function. (The ARC operation
indicator lights.)
Note
: To stop measurement partway, press the ARC switch again.
