Text Box: PAGE NUMBER # Text Box: 1. TURN "OFF" THE PINK NOISE GENERATOR. 2. SET YOUR SOURCE VOLUME TO NORMAL LISTENING LEVEL. 3. ADJUST THE PRE-GAIN POTS AS HIGH AS POSSIBLE BUT NOT SO HIGH AS TO CAUSE CLIPPING. 4. THE PATTERN SHOWN ON THE SLIDERS REPRESENTS THE ANALYSIS OF YOUR LISTENING AREA, HEARING, AND EQUIPMENT. 5. REMOVE THE EXTENSION CABLES (IF USED) AND LOCATE THE DE-Q25. Text Box: TRIGGERING FOR HOME USE MAY BE ACCOMPLISHED BY USING TWO 12VDC PLUG-IN ADAPTERS. ONE IS CONNECTED TO THE TRIGGER (YELLOW) WIRE AND GROUND (BLACK) AND THE OTHER IS CONNECTED TO THE +12V (RED) AND GROUND. THE TRIGGER SUPPLY IS PLUGGED INTO A SWITCHED OUTLET, WHILE THE OTHER IS PLUGGED INTO AN UN-SWITCHED OUTLET. A 250 MA 12VDC ADAPTER MAY BE USED, HOWEVER, A 500MA UNIT IS PREFERRED. Text Box: SETTING THE INPUT GAIN LEVEL AFTER SETTING THE SLIDERS, AT LEAST 1 SLIDE SHOULD BE ALL THE WAY UP OR AT +3DB ON THE TEMPLATE. AT THIS POINT THE TEMPLATE MAY BE REMOVED AND STORED IN A SAFE PLACE. IF THE HIGHEST SLIDER IS NOT ALL THE WAY UP, THE PRECEDING INSTRUCTIONS SHOULD REPEATED. THE INPUT LEVEL CONTROLS ALLOW THE USER TO ACHIEVE THE BEST SIGNAL TO NOISE RATIO AND LIMIT THE CHANCES FOR CLIPPING. Text Box: THE SEMOD NOISE GATE OPTION IS AVAILABLE ON THE MID RANGE AND TWEETER OUTPUTS ONLY (EXCEPT ON MODELS THAT HAVE ONLY WOOFER/FULL RANGE OUTPUTS). THE INTENT IS FOR COMPETITION AND "SOUND-OFF" CONTESTS WHERE SYSTEM NOISE IS MEASURED WITH A BLANK TAPE OR CD. THIS NOISE GATE WILL ALLOW YOUR SYSTEM TO SCORE VERY HIGH. WHEN WIRING THE SEMOD AS A FULL RANGE SYSTEM THE MID RANGE OUTPUTS SHOULD BE USED IF NOISE GATING IS DESIRED. IF NOT, THEN USE THE WOOFER OUTPUT. A POT CONTROLS THE NOISE GATE THRESHOLD. THE HIGHER THE SETTING (MORE CLOCKWISE), THE LOWER THE SENSITIVITY. THIS IS SET AT THE FACTORY. DO NOT ADJUST! WHEN SET PROPERLY, THE NOISE GATE WILL FORCE THE LISTENER TO SET THE VOLUME ON THE HEAD UNIT TO A LEVEL WHERE THE NOISE LEVEL IS NOT TOO LOUD. WHEN CONNECTING THE OUTPUT JACKS, MAKE SURE THAT THE POWER CONNECTOR HAS BEEN INSTALLED FIRST. WHEN DISCONNECTING THE OUTPUT JACKS, MAKE SURE THE POWER CONNECTOR IS STILL CONNECTED. WHEN USING THE BUILT-IN PINK NOISE GENERATOR, THE HEAD UNIT (SOURCE) SHOULD BE TURNED UP 1/4 TO INSURE THAT THE NOISE GATE IS NOT ACTIVE.
