Configuration

Before you begin setup, you must assign each speaker a specific role via configuration before connecting them.

What is the role of the speaker?

To do this, repeatedly press the CONFIGURATION button (26). 

 

MASTER: Speaker acts as the primary control unit and transmits the audio signal to all connected speakers. 

MASTER - SUB MODE: Speaker acts as the control unit and subwoofer for playback of low tones, while the signal components for mid and high tones are passed to the other speakers.

COMPANION: Speaker receives the audio signal from a MASTER or SUB and plays it back synchronously.

Which signals are output?
