Click “OK” to be taken to the first screen in the setup process:
Basic Setup tab
The screen above allows you to configure the SC-1 for the number and nature of
the	channels	in	your	system.	Select	the	appropriate	configuration	from	the	drop-
down	menu,	wherein	the	normal	conventions	are	used	to	describe	the	system,	
e.g.,	a	“5.1	Multichannel”	system	includes	left,	center,	right,	two	surround	chan-
nels,	and	a	“0.1”	subwoofer	channel.	
If	you	have	already	configured	an	identical	system	and	saved	the	configuration,	
you	can	load	it	by	pressing	the	button	below	the	drop-down	menu.
If	you	are	returning	to	set	up	an	SC-1	that	has	already	been	set	up	at	least	once,	
this	screen	will	be	skipped.	The	software	will	instead	read	the	current	settings	of	
the	SC-1	and	display	the	third	panel	(Room	Calibration).	If	you	need	to	return	to	
this	screen	to	change	the	basic	system	configuration,	you	can	click	the	Previous	
button	on	the	third	and	second	screens	to	return,	or	click	directly	on	the	appro-
priate	tab.	
6.x Phantom
A special case exists in this menu system, that being the “6.x Phantom” system
configurations.	This	is	intended	to	describe	the	case	of	what	amounts	to	a	7.x	
system	minus	its	center	channel.	This	configuration	may	be	used	in	situations	
where	using	a	center	channel	is	simply	not	practical.	
Instead,	the	surround	processor	folds	the	center	channel	information	into	both	
the	left	and	right	speakers	equally,	creating	a	“phantom”	center	channel	image.	
It	is	called	out	separately	in	this	menu	because	there	is	also	a	“6.x	Multichannel”	
configuration	which	includes	a	center	channel	and	a	single,	rear	surround	chan-
nel.	In	either	case,	the	SC-1	needs	to	know	which	channels	are	being	used	so	it	
can	produce	the	correct	test	signals	during	calibration.	
When you have selected the basic system description that fits your situation,
click the Next button.
