The visibility of the LCD display can be adjusted by scrolling down to

CONTRAST on the main menu and pressing the selector to set the contrast

value between 1 and 5. This can be useful to make the display more

legible with different light or viewing angles.

Scrolling down further switches to the second menu page.

The next section of the DSP menu controls the limiter for each of the high

and low frequency components. A limiter is a device that will reduce the

volume differences above a set signal level. This can help to protect the

amplifier and speaker components from overload when driven very hard.

Scroll down to highlight either "H LIMITER" or "L LIMITER" and press the

selector to adjust the limiter level for either high frequency or low

frequency amplifier sections. The maximum setting is 0.0dB, which has

minimum effect, and lower (negative) dB settings will cause the limiter to

take effect earlier (i.e. at lower peak levels)

Scrolling down from the limiter section

leaves 2 further options. The first

option is "INFO" which provides

information about the firmware of the

DSP.

Press the selector to show the current

version information and date.

The last menu option is "RESET" which takes the DSP back to the factory

settings. Press the selector and a pop-up window will ask to confirm if you

want to reset the DSP settings to the default values.

Programming via USB

For more targeted and in-depth programming, the CLARA active cabinets may be edited via a USB connection,

as described below. This offers more in-depth editing and the option to save DSP profiles as files on the

laptop, which may be useful for different venues and/or applications.

Before connecting the CLARA active speaker to a laptop, please download the "ADU" application from the

AVSL website... https://www.avsl.com/assets/downloads/178152UK-software.zip. Please ensure the laptop is

running Windows 10 or above.

Connect the USB port of the speaker to the laptop via a USB A to B lead and switch the power on to the

CLARA speaker cabinet.

Once connected, run the ADU software application on the laptop and the program will open in a window with

a graphic representation of an audio spectrum along with all editable settings.
