Press and hold the touch field for more than three
seconds on the loudspeaker you wish to calibrate
(while you are pressing, the indicator light quickly
flashes red).
If you wish to cancel an ongoing calibration, press
the touch field again – or press BACK on the Beo4
remote control.
For an overview of the indicator lights, refer to
page 17.
The moving microphone is used during the
calibration. Make sure that there is always free
space in front of the microphone.
To calibrate BeoLab 5
Perform the calibration for each loudspeaker
in your setup separately. The calibration takes
a couple of minutes for each loudspeaker. You
cannot start the calibration if the loudspeaker
has been locked by the PIN code system*.
> Make sure that the loudspeaker is in standby.
If necessary, switch the loudspeaker to standby
as explained in the chapter ‘Daily use’ (pp. 4–5).
> Press and hold the touch field for more than
three seconds, then let go of the panel.
When the calibration begins, the indicator light
flashes green.
Once started, and during the calibration, the
following occurs:
– The microphone extends a little, and the speaker
generates a series of sound signals, starting with
very low bass tones.
– After a while the microphone extends a little
further, and the sound signals begin again.
– When the calibration is complete, the
microphone retracts and the loudspeaker
switches to standby. The indicator light shines
red for a while. You may now proceed with the
next loudspeaker.
If the indicator light flashes red, an error has
occurred during the calibration. To solve this, do
the following:
> Press and hold the touch field for more than one
second, then let go of the field.
The loudspeaker will switch to standby, and the
indicator light shines red for a while
> Check for any source of noise which may have
interferred with the calibration, and wait until
the noise has stopped.
> Press and hold the touch field for more than
three seconds to start the calibration again.
*NOTE! If the loudspeaker is locked by the PIN code
system, the indicator light shines intermittently red
and green when you switch on. Unlock the
loudspeaker as explained in Use the PIN code
system (p. 14).
