your monitoring system. Make sure that the height and orientation of the microphone correspond to your typical
listening height and direction as illustrated below. Do not block the line of sight between the microphone and
the loudspeakers. Each measurement is comprised of a low and a high frequency measuring signal first in the
left and then in the right channel.
The length of each measurement depends on a combination of the measurement volume, and the background
noise in your local environment. Typical measuring times for the low and high frequency measuring signals are
25 and 5 seconds, respectively. If an error message is displayed. Make any required corrections to your set up and
follow the prompt to retry the measurement.
Focus Position Measurements must be performed more than 1 m (3 ft) away from the loudspeakers, in an X/Y
orientation, and must not performed behind the loudspeaker. Also, do not sit in the listening position while
Focus measurements are being taken.
