Anleitung Zusammenfassung
It explains everything you need to know to use the application, from installation to troubleshooting. You will need to operate the receiver to use this application, so please refer also to the Operating Instructions supplied with the receiver. About the Advanced MCACC Application The functions of the Advanced MCACC application are used with the same purpose as the “Reverb View” and “Group Delay” functions of the receiver itself (see pages 50 and 51 of the Operating Instructions of the SC-07/05), namely to display the reverberation characteristics of the listening environment and the group delay characteristics of the speakers. Using a computer provides cleaner, more easily readable graphs. The application can also be used to display the measurement values stored in the receiver’s MCACC memory. Requirements for using the application on your PC • Operating system must be Microsoft® Windows® XP (Service Pack 2) or Windows® 2000. • CPU must be at least Pentium 3 / 300 MHz or AMD K6 / 300 MHz (or equivalent) with at least 128 MB of memory, and your monitor must be able to display a minimum resolution of 800x600. • An RS-232C port connector is necessary for graphical output. Refer to the PC’s operating instructions and/or the PC manufacturer for more information on making the proper port settings. Microsoft, Windows XP and Windows 2000 are registered trademarks or trademarks of the Microsoft Corporation of the United States and other countries. Main features of the application 1. Displays 3D graphs of the reverberation frequency characteristics of your room. You can choose to see these measurements both with and without the equalization performed by this receiver (before and after calibration). 2. Allows you to display 3D graphics of the group delay characteristics of the different speakers. (The values before and after calibration can be displayed.) 3. Allows you to display a list of the Advanced MCACC parameters (the results of measurements). 4. Allows you to view graphs in a number of different formats. 5. Allows you to save the various measured data on the computer. 6. Allows you to make memos about the conditions in your room when you made the measurements, etc. 7. Allows you to print the various graphs and the MCACC measurement values. Continue 2 About the Advanced MCACC Application (Continued) Things you ca n ac com p lish wit h this a p plica tion 1. Advanced EQ Setup, which you can do with the receiver (see page 50 in the receiver’s Operating Instructions), allows you to choose the optimum time period for auto EQ setup. You can use this application’s reverberation characteristics (Reverb) as a guide in choosing the best time period for your room. For details, see How to Interpret the Graphs(page 18). 2. Skewed reverb frequency characteristics in your listening room can prevent you from enjoying an accurate sound field. The graphs displayed by this application are a powerful tool because they allow you to check these reverb frequency characteristics at a glance. You can also check the effectiveness of steps that you take to improve the acoustics of your listening room, for example, installing sound absorbent material. For details, see How to Interpret the Graphs(page 18). 3. The Group Delay graphs allow you to check the group delay characteristics before and after calibration. For details, see Reading thegroup delay characteristics graph (Group Delay)(page 25). 4. The MCACC parameters display (Parameters) allows you to display on the computer all the parameters (measurement values) stored in the receiver’s MCACC memories. For details, see Display of the MCACC parameters (page 26). 3 Installing the Application Install this application on your PC by using the downloaded installer. You will find the installer in the folder that you specified when you downloaded the application. If a previous version of the Advanced MCACC application (“Ver. 1.1”, “Ver. 1.4” or “Ver. 2.0”) is installed on your computer, please update the application. For details, see Updating the application (page 27). 1 Double click the “PioneerAdvancedMCACC_e_ver_*_*.exe” file . The number after “ver” in the filename is the version number of the installer. Depending on the current configuration of your PC, the InstallShield Wizard can take some time to appear. 2 Click “Next”. 3 (If you agree to the contents of the License Agreement), select “I accept the terms in the license agreement”, then select “Next”. The destination selection screen of the installer appears. Continue Troubleshooting If an error occurs when you double click and you are unable to proceed with the installation. 4 Installing the Application (Continued) 4 Input the Customer Information, then select “Next”. 5 Click “Next”. The application is installed in the folder indicated at “Destination Folder”. The destination folder can be changed by clicking “Change...”. Continue 5 Installing the Application (Continued) 6 Choose “Install”. A shortcut icon is created on the desktop. 7 ...
