3.1.2  Master volume control 
The ‘Master Volume Control’ window is displayed on 
the Windows desktop regardless of which software 
module you are running or intend to run. It is 
situated in the left side of the screen alongside the 
main Startup window. It appears as default when the 
Startup module is loaded, but does not disappear 
(unless intentionally removed) when you open 
another module. You may remove this function so it 
disappears from the screen and cannot therefore be 
altered. 
 
 i 
   Note 
The ‘Master Volume Control’ window can be 
moved around the desktop by clicking on the 
window with the left mouse button and 
dragging it to another position. 
 
 i 
   Note 
The ‘Master Volume Control’ is not always on 
top of the other windows. When using 
maximized windows, the control is not visible 
anymore. 
It can be always on top by adding the following 
section to the DCNNG.INI file: 
[Startup] 
MasterVolOnTop=Yes.
 
Removing the master volume 
To remove the master volume: 
•  Select the ‘Global Settings’ menu on the main 
menu bar. 
•  Click ‘Master Volume Control’ to remove this 
function. 
 
Altering the master volume control 
This option allows you to adjust the volume of all 
unit loudspeakers in the system. 
 
 
Figure 6 The ‘Master Volume Control’ window 
To alter the volume: 
•  Click on the up or down arrow, as required. 
The slider box will move up or down corresponding 
to the change in volume. 
 
 i 
   Note 
The volume can also be altered by dragging the 
slider box up or down, as required. It is also 
possible to click on the area above or below 
the slider box. This causes the slider box to 
move towards the pointer. 
Muting 
It is possible to cut off all delegate unit loudspeaker 
output. To do so: 
•  Click on the ‘Mute’ push button situated 
underneath the master control volume box at the 
bottom left of the screen. 
The button will turn red, indicating the ‘Mute’ 
function has been activated. The slider box will move 
to its lowest possible position. 
 
 i 
   Note 
Muting the output signal only temporarily 
reduces the output volume to zero. When the 
muting is disabled, the output volume returns to 
the level it had before being muted.
