Data Management
This system allows you to store up to six
MCACC presets, allowing you to calibrate your
system for different listening positions (or
frequency adjustments for the same listening
position). This is useful for alternate settings
to match the kind of source you’re listening to
and where you’re sitting (for example, watching
movies from a sofa, or playing a video game
close to the TV).
From this menu you can copy from one preset
to another, name presets for easier identifica-
tion and clear any ones you don’t need.
! This can be done in Automatically conducting
optimum sound tuning (Full Auto MCACC) on
page 26 or Automatic MCACC (Expert) on page
60 , either of which you should have already
completed.

then press HOME MENU.
A Graphical User Interface (GUI) screen
appears on your TV. Use
i/j/k/l and
ENTER to navigate through the screens and
select menu items. Press RETURN to exit the
current menu.

Home Menu.

! Memory Rename – Name your MCACC
presets for easy identification (see Renaming
MCACC presets on page 65 ).
! MCACC Memory Copy – Copy settings from
one MCACC preset to another (see Copying
MCACC preset data on page 65 ).
! MCACC Memory Clear – Clear any MCACC
presets that you don’t want (see Clearing

Renaming MCACC presets
If you have several different MCACC presets
that you’re using, you may want to rename
them for easier identification.
1 Select ‘Memory Rename’ from the
Data Management setup menu.

name.
Use i/j to select the preset, then k/l to
select a preset name.

as necessary, then press RETURN when

You will return to the Data Management setup
menu.
Copying MCACC preset data
If you want to manually adjust the Acoustic
Calibration EQ (see Manual MCACC setup on
page 62 ), we recommend copying your current
settings to an unused MCACC preset. Instead
of just a flat EQ curve, this will give you a refer-
ence point from which to start.
