(

Figure 43) will appear.

2. Use the drop-down box to identify the particular type of component connected

to that set of source connections. If the list doesn’t include a suitable name you
can type one of your own into the box.

3. Use the V

O

FFSET

slider to adjust the input level of the source component. This

lets you balance the output levels of the different source components so they will
play at (or very close to) the same volume:

a) Play program material on all of the connected source components. (Use similar

material on all sources so your adjustments will reflect the output levels of the
source components rather than the differences in the program material.)

b) Use a keypad controller or the remote control to switch between the sources until you get a good feel for their

relative volume levels.

c) Adjust the V

OLUME

O

FFSET

sliders of the four sources as needed to compensate for different output levels.

d) Transfer the new programming to the DAB1 via the USB connection. (See

Transferring System Information to a DAB1,

on page 25.)

e) After the transfer is complete unplug the USB cable from the DAB1 and switch between the sources while they’re

playing to test your changes.

f) Repeat steps a) through e) as needed until all of the sources play at approximately the same volume.
