;Recommended levels
: These levels depend on amplifier sensitivity and gain adjustments. Chime Master inSpire amplifiers and sound packages are assumed below.
Level 1 should be safe enough to be in the tower with the speakers for testing after installation.
Levels 2-3 are suitable for night ringing, if required
Levels 4-6 are reasonably loud for most neighborhoods if the speakers are open (not behind tower louvers).
Levels 7-9 may be needed for noisy environments and towers with heavy louvers (less than 40% open).


Level 10 and above should only be used for short length Mono and Simple music to avoid:
: Speaker overdrive distortion
: Triggering amplifier protection modes (occasional sound drop outs)

When choosing the arrangement and instrument setting for some selections, one of your options is default settings. Your system is programmed so that your default settings are the most common choice among Chime Master customers, but if you prefer something different, you can easily change this setting.

Arrangement Style

Tap Settings and Music to change your default arrangement and instrument for songs. Since the instrument choices depend on the arrangement style, it must be chosen first. The arrangements are listed in order from the smallest and simplest to the largest and most extravagant. If you choose more tan one arrangements they will be mixed. Occasionally you may hear a simpler arrangement than you have chosen, but never a larger one. 3. Once you have selected your Arrangement, click on the white box next to it to view your Instrument options. 4. Tap the green play button to sample the combination displayed. 5. Change your setting and listen again until you have decided your default choices. 6. When your preferred Arrangement is checked and your Instrument is displayed, tap the gray save icon. If you wish to exit the menu without saving your changes, tap back or home. 7. Changes will become effective when the bells are scheduled to be silent for a brief period.







The inside speaker button in the tool bar is always functional but here you will set your default choice. Toggle the button to your preferred default, Mute, Low or Loud, then adjust the Inside Speakers to the appropriate volume.

For the outside speakers, make small incremental adjustments and walk around outside while the system is playing. The settings range from 1 to 11.

The Inside and Outside volume control sections have Mixer switches.

Stereo
Stereo setting disables opposite channels and their controls are grayed out and minimized for maximum channel separation.
Mix
Mix allows Left and Right signals to be proportionally mixed into each output zone.

Tap the Save button at lower right to save your changes. Tap the Toolbar back button or Home button to abandon your changes.
