Configuring the sources

The DSP loudspeakers provide 12 sources
corresponding to the 12 source selection keys on the
remote:

CD, RADIO, DVD, AUX, DISC, TAPE, TV,
CABLE, SAT, VCR1, VCR2, and GAME.

When the master DSP loudspeaker is set to one of
the standard Types, the source selection keys select
the co-axial input (apart from Type 5 which assigns
the CD source to the RJ45 SpeakerLink input). See

Choosing standard settings, page 24.

If the configuration you want is not catered for by
one of the standard settings, you can configure each
source individually.

For each source you can configure:

The label used for it on the front panel display, from a
range of alternative labels.
The digital input it selects.
The comms type and address, to control other
Meridian 500 Series equipment.
Other advanced options.

You only need to configure the sources on the DSP
loudspeaker you have specified as the master.

While in configuration mode:

Press the source key on the remote corresponding to
the source you want to configure.

For example, to configure the Radio source press
