T o toggle between the two fi lters and ‘Bypass’ you simply press the Up/Down buttons on the front panel or remote control.
18 RoomPerfect™ The sub menus accessible in the RoomPerfect™ menu are: Advanced options is only available when Guided set-up has been performed. Guided Setup When you enter the RoomPerfect™ Main Menu for the fi rst time, only the Guided setup is available.
19 Setting the Measurement V olume Level When setting the measurement volume level, it is important that you always judge whether the calibra- tion volume is too loud. The calibration volume should not be so loud that it causes: • uncomfortably loud sounds that are inconvenient to you or your environment, or • damage to your loudspeakers.
20 When the message ‘Calibration ok. Press Enter to continue’ is displayed, the calibration volume has suc- cessfully been set and saved. Focus Measurement When the calibration is OK, press Enter to start the measuring process and ‘Measuring Focus position …’ will be displayed.
21 For an optimal room correction it is very important that the measurements are: 1. performed more than 1 meter (approx. 3 feet) away from the loudspeakers, 2. not performed behind the loudspeaker , and 3. that there is at least 50 cm/1.5 ft between each measurement.
22 Calculation of Focus and Global Filters When RoomPerfect™ calculates the fi lters the display shows the following, ‘Calculating fi lters - Please wait’. The fi lter calculation process can be expected to take anywhere between 5 seconds and a minute de- pending on the specifi c task.
23 Advanced Options This section describes the options in the advanced menu, which is available after Guided Setup has been completed. Here you can change the listening position and add more room measurements, check the RoomKnowledge of your current set-up, and check the RoomCorrection for the different fi lters.
24 ‘Add more room meas.? Y es/No’ will show in the display: • choose Y es to add another room measurement or , • choose No to stop adding more room measurements. If No is chosen the RP-1 is will return to full scale output. ‘Save room measurement(s)? Y es/No’ will hereafter be shown.

28 Crossover Frequency Crossover Frequency is only available when Routing has been setup. The Crossover Frequency can be selected anywhere between 40 – 9999Hz. It is very diffi cult to give exact guidelines to setting a suitable crossover frequency , fi lter type and order since this depends on the exact drivers and confi gurations.
29 Delay If you are using a set-up with two main loudspeakers located at an identical distance to the listening position you don’t need to set a delay .
30 Firmware V ersions The Firmware V ersions menu is used to check the current fi rmware version of your RP-1 and the Room- Perfect™ module as well as the RoomPerfect™ serial number .
