tuning or BSM when AF is on.

! When you recall a preset station, the tuner

may update the preset station with a new frequency from the stations AF list. (This is only available when using presets on the FM1 or FM2 bands.) No preset number appears on the display if the RDS data for the station received differs from that for the originally stored station.

! Sound may be temporarily interrupted by an-

other program during an AF frequency search.

! AF can be turned on or off independently for

each FM band.

Using PI Seek

If the unit fails to find a suitable alternative frequency, or if you are listening to a broadcast and the reception becomes weak, the unit will automatically search for a different station with the same programming. During the search, PI Seek is displayed and the output is muted. The muting is discontinued after completion of the PI Seek, whether or not a different station is found.

Using Auto PI Seek for preset stations

When preset stations cannot be recalled, as when travelling long distances, the unit can be set to perform PI Seek during preset recall. ! The default setting for Auto PI Seek is off.

See Switching Auto PI Seek on page 70.

Limiting stations to regional programming

When AF is used to automatically retune frequencies, the regional function limits the selection to stations broadcasting regional programs.

1 Use MULTI-CONTROL to select REG. The function name tag REG is highlighted.

2 Press MULTI-CONTROL to turn the regional function on. Regional :ON appears in the display.

# To turn the regional function off, press

MULTI-CONTROL again.

play if the tuner tunes in a regional station which differs from the originally set station.

! The regional function can be turned on or off

independently for each FM band.

Receiving traffic announcements

TA (traffic announcement standby) lets you receive traffic announcements automatically, no matter what source you are listening to. TA can be activated for both a TP station (a station that broadcasts traffic information) or an enhanced other networks TP station (a station carrying information which cross-references TP stations).

About the network function

The network function lets you divide the audio signal into different frequency bands, and then reproduce each of them through separate speaker units.

You can then make precise adjustments to the reproduced frequency band (with a low-pass filter or high-pass filter), level, phase and other parameters to match the characteristics of each speaker unit.

Adjustable parameters

The network function enables adjustment of the following parameters. Make adjustments in line with the reproduced frequency band and characteristics of each connected speaker unit.

Level

(dB)

Reproduced frequency band

Pass

Level

Cut-off frequency of HPF

Reproduced frequency band

Adjusting the HPF (high-pass filter) or LPF (low-pass filter) cut-off frequency lets you set the reproduced frequency band for each speaker unit. ! The HPF cuts frequencies (low) below the

set frequency, letting high frequencies through.

! The LPF cuts frequencies (high) above the

set frequency, letting low frequencies through.

Level

The difference in reproduced levels between speaker units can be corrected.

Slope (dB/oct.)

Frequency

(Hz)

Cut-off frequency of LPF

English

Page 58

Section

Audio Adjustments

Slope

Adjusting the HPF/LPF slope (filter attenuation slope) lets you adjust the continuity of sound between speaker units. ! The slope indicates the number of decibels

(dB) the signal is attenuated when the frequency is one octave higher (lower) (Unit: dB/oct.). The steeper the slope, the more the signal is attenuated.

Phase

You can switch phase (normal, reverse) for each speaker units input signal. When the continuity of sound between speakers is imprecise, try switching phase. This may improve the continuity of sound between speakers.

Points concerning network adjustments

Cut-off frequency adjustment

! With the low-range speaker installed in the

rear tray, if you set Low LPF cut-off frequency high, bass sound is separated so that it appears to come from the rear. You are recommended to set Low LPF cut-off frequency to 100 Hz or lower.

! The maximum input power setting for mid-

dle- and high-range speakers is usually lower than that for low-range speakers. Remember that if Mid HPF or High HPF cutoff frequency is set lower than required, strong bass signal input may damage the speaker.

Level adjustment

The basic frequencies of many musical instruments are in the middle range. First perform middle-range level adjustment, followed by high-range and then low-range level adjustment in that order.

Slope adjustment

! If you set a small absolute value for the

slope (for a gentle slope), interference between adjacent speaker units can easily result in degraded frequency response.

! If you set a large absolute value for the

slope (for a steep slope), continuity of sound between speaker units is degraded, and sounds appear to be separated.

! If you set the slope to 0 dB/oct. (Pass), the

audio signal bypasses the filter, so the filter does not have an effect.

Phase adjustment

When the cross-over point value for filters on both sides is set to 12 dB/oct., the phase is reversed 180 degrees at the filter cut-off frequency. In this case, reversing the phase assures improved sound continuity.

Normal phase

Reverse phase

Crossover point

Muting the speaker unit (filter)

You can mute each speaker unit (filter). When a speaker unit (filter) is muted, no sound is outputted from that speaker. ! If you mute the selected speaker unit (fil-

ter), MUTE blinks and no adjustments are possible.

! Even if any speaker unit (filter) is muted,

you can adjust the parameters for other speaker units (filters).

Auto TA and EQ (auto-time alignment and autoequalizing)

The auto-time alignment is automatically adjusted for the distance between each speaker and the listening position. The auto-equalizer automatically measures the car interior acoustic characteristics, and then creates the auto-equalizer curve based on that information.

WARNING

To prevent accidents, never carry out auto TA and EQ while driving. When this function measures the car interior acoustic characteristics to create an auto-equalizer curve, a loud measurement tone (noise) may be outputted from the speakers.

CAUTION

! Carrying out auto TA and EQ under the follow-

ing conditions may damage the speakers. Be sure to check the conditions thoroughly before carrying out auto TA and EQ.  When speakers are incorrectly connected.

(e.g., When a rear speaker is connected to a subwoofer output.)

 When a speaker is connected to a power

amp delivering output higher than the

speakers maximum input power capability.

! If the microphone is placed in an unsuitable

position the measurement tone may become loud and measurement may take a long time, resulting in a drain on battery power. Be sure to place the microphone in the specified location.

Before operating the auto TA and EQ function

! Carry out auto TA and EQ in as quiet a

place as possible, with the car engine and air conditioning switched off. Also cut power to car phones or portable telephones in the car, or remove them from the car before carrying out auto TA and EQ. Sounds other than the measurement tone (surrounding sounds, engine sound, telephones ringing etc.) may prevent correct measurement of the car interior acoustic characteristics.

! Be sure to carry out auto TA and EQ using

the supplied microphone. Using another microphone may prevent measurement, or result in incorrect measurement of the car interior acoustic characteristics.

! When front speaker is not connected, auto

TA and EQ cannot be carried out.

! When muting the front speaker units, auto

TA and EQ cannot be carried out. (Refer to page 61.)

! When this unit is connected to a power

amp with input level control, auto TA and EQ may not be possible if you lower power amp input level. Set the power amps input level to the standard position.

! When this unit is connected to a power

amp with an LPF, turn off the LPF on the power amp before carrying out auto TA and EQ. In addition, the cut-off frequency for built-in LPF of an active subwoofer should be set to the highest frequency.

! The time alignment value calculated by

auto TA and EQ may differ from the actual distance in the following circumstances. However, the distance has been calculated by computer to be the optimum delay to give accurate results for the circumstances, so please continue to use this value.  When the reflected sound within a vehi-

cle is strong and delays occur.

 When delays occur for low sounds due

to the influence of the LPF on active subwoofers or external amps.

! Auto TA and EQ changes the audio settings

as below:  The fader/balance settings return to the

center position. (Refer to page 56.)

 The graphic equalizer curve switches to

FLAT. (Refer to page 62.)

 When a subwoofer is connected to this

unit, it will be adjusted automatically to both subwoofer output and high pass filter setting for rear speaker.

! If you carry out auto TA and EQ when a pre-

vious setting of this already exists, the setting will be replaced.

Carrying out auto TA and EQ

1 Stop the car in a place that is as quiet as possible, close all doors, windows and the sun roof, and then turn the engine off.

If the engine is left running, engine noise may prevent correct auto TA and EQ.

3 Turn the ignition switch to ON or ACC.

If the cars air conditioner or heater is turned on, turn it off. Noise from the fan in the air conditioner or heater may prevent correct auto TA and EQ.

# Press SOURCE to turn the source on if this unit is turned off.

Terms

Bit rate

This expresses data volume per second, or bps units (bits per second). The higher the rate, the more information is available to reproduce the sound. Using the same encoding method (such as MP3), the higher the rate, the better the sound.

ID3 tag

This is a method of embedding track-related information in an MP3 file. This embedded information can include the track title, the artists name, the album title, the music genre, the year of production, comments and other data. The contents can be freely edited using software with ID3 Tag editing functions. Although the tags are restricted as to the number of characters, the information can be viewed when the track is played back.

ISO9660 format

This is the international standard for the format logic of CD-ROM folders and files. For the ISO9660 format, there are regulations for the following two levels.

Level 1:

The file name is in 8.3 format (the name consists of up to 8 characters, half-byte English capital letters and half-byte numerals and the _ sign, with a file-extension of three characters.)

Level 2:

The file name can have up to 31 characters (including the separation mark . and a file extension). Each folder contains less than 8 hierarchies.

Extended formats

Joliet: File names can have up to 64 characters. Romeo: File names can have up to 128 characters.

Linear PCM (LPCM)/Pulse code modulation

This stands for linear pulse code modulation, which is the signal recording system used for music CDs and DVDs.

m3u

Playlists created using the  WINAMP software have a playlist file extension (.m3u).

MP3

MP3 is short for MPEG Audio Layer 3. It is an audio compression standard set by a working group (MPEG) of the ISO (International Standards Organization). MP3 is able to compress audio data to about 1/10th the level of a conventional disc.

MS ADPCM

This stands for Microsoft adaptive differential pulse code modulation, which is the signal recording system used for the multimedia software of Microsoft Corporation.

Multi-session

Multi-session is a recording method that allows additional data to be recorded later. When recording data on a CD-ROM, CD-R or CD-RW, etc., all data from beginning to end is treated as a single unit or session. Multi-session is a method of recording more than 2 sessions on one disc.

Number of quantization bits

The number of quantization bits is one factor in the overall sound quality; the higher the bit-depth, the better the sound quality. However, increasing the bit-depth also increases the amount of data and therefore storage space required.

English

Page 82

Appendix

Additional Information

Packet write

This is a general term for a method of writing on CD-R, etc., at the time required for a file, just as is done with files on floppy or hard discs.

VBR

VBR is short for variable bit rate. Generally speaking CBR (constant bit rate) is more widely used. But by flexibly adjusting the bit rate according to the needs of audio compression, it is possible to achieve compressionpriority sound quality.

WAV

WAV is short for waveform. It is a standard audio file format for Windows

WMA

WMA is short for Windows Media" Audio and refers to an audio compression technology that is developed by Microsoft Corporation. WMA data can be encoded by using Windows Media Player version 7 or later. Microsoft, Windows Media, and the Windows logo are trademarks, or registered trademarks of Microsoft Corporation in the United States and/or other countries.
