• If a successful microphone check has not been performed, one of the error messages shown at the right will open on the on-screen
display, indicating that a successful microphone check is required before automatic calibration can be performed. If this occurs,
begin with Step A: Connecting the Microphones on page 3-35 to perform the microphone check.
The following AUTO SPEAKER SETUP screens will open on the on-screen display before automatic calibration is performed:
• The !CAUTION! HIGH AUDIO LEVELS screen shown above will open on the on-screen display, indicating that the MC-12 generates loud calibration noise
signals during automatic calibration. If the signals become too loud, press the
arrow button to cancel automatic calibration. Press the arrow button
to open the next AUTO SPEAKER SETUP screen.
• The countdown screen shown above will open on the on-screen display, activating a 10-second countdown to automatic calibration. Press the button
to skip the countdown and begin automatic calibration. Otherwise, it is possible to leave the listening space without affecting automatic calibration results.
The MC-12 will automatically activate automatic calibration when the countdown ends. It is recommended to return to the listening space about 10
minutes later to avoid interrupting the automatic calibration procedure.
