WARNING
While
driving,
do
not
set
up
MuItEQ.
NEVER
try to calibrate
MultEQ
while driving. Road noise and vibration prevents any
measurement from being anywhere close to accurate. Mic placement and the measurement
test tone are critical to the accurate calibration
of
MultEQ.
The
slightest movement while
driving and passengers sitting in the
car
(including the driver) all contribute to poor
acoustical characterization. While all this is going on, the possibility
of
being distracted and
causing an accident, is too obvious to even mention.
Don't
do it!
Read
following
provisions
before
calibrating
MuItEQ.
•Calibrate MultEQ
in
asetting with no background noises (or, at least very little). Turn
off
the engine, air-
conditioner, heater and anything else that could make noises during testing. For example, aphone (any
type as long as it can make noises to attract your attention) or dog (any breed for the same reason)
shouldn't
be left in or around the vehicle. Any extraneous noises prevent accurate characterization
of
the
vehicle.
•Use only the microphone supplied with this unit for calibration.
It
has been specifically selected for
optimum performance during the calibration procedure.
•
If
amplifiers are being used to drive any
of
the speakers in the system, make sure the gains are set at
optimum levels for normal listening. Additional adjustments may be required
if
initial calibration is not
satisfactory.
•
If
an amplifier is being used to drive satellites in a2-way system (satellite/subwoofer), the high-pass
filter used for the satellite amplifier must be turned
off
before running MultEQ calibration. If alow-pass
filter is built into apowered subwoofer
or
subwoofer amplifier, turn it
off
(if possible)
or
set the cut-off
frequency to the highest possible value.
•
Once
MultEQ calibration
is
completed, MX, X-OVER, Time Correction, User's EQ, Parametric EQ and
Graphic
EQ
are adjusted according to
MultEQ's
parameters. While MultEQ is on, they cannot be
adjusted independently.
•Storing the MultEQ settings in the
PXA-H
I
00
erases any data previously saved from earlier calibrations.

1Preparing for calibration
•Park the vehicle
in
aquiet location,
•Close doors, windows, sunroof, etc,
