THEATER DEFINITION (1/2)

• In this part, we will cover the configuration of the speakers in the installation. As systems might easily get complicated, the Quick Guide will only focus on a basic use case where full bandwidth passive speakers are used.
• We will not cover specific multi-ways speakers here, but we will consider multiple rows of surround speakers as well as multiple subwoofers.
• If you need a different configuration to the one explained here, we invite you to refer to the Owner Manual providing details on all possible adjustments of the ISR.

Create your Theater and Audio Zones

1. Firstly, select the Main Speakers page via the Burger Menu.
2. By default, a 2.1-channel theater is defined. If it doesn’t meet your needs, use the trash can to delete the existing theater.
3. Select the + next to Theaters to create a new Theater launch the Speakers configurator and go to Configure your theater part below. Or, select the + next to Zones to create an Audio Zone and proceed to step 4.
4. In the pop-up window, select the Audio Zone type you wish to create.
5. Then validate selecting Create. This will generate and edit the Audio Zone for adjustments. We will not cover the Audio Zone Edit mode in this guide, please refer to the Owner Manual.

Configure your Theater

When in the Theater Configurator, you will be able to define each layer of the speaker installation: base, height, and top layers.

1. Use the left and right arrows to choose your desired layout for the current layer.
2. For each speaker, you can define whether full bandwidth or multiway, with up to 4 ways definable.
3. Select the output mode between Single-Ended (SE) or Bridge Tied Load (BTL) for up to 3 channels. See Wiring Recommendations for more details.
4. The Center channel can be turned to Phantom mode, the signal being played in the Left and Right channels.
5. Top speakers can be defined as Dolby Atmos Enabled if up-firing speakers are used. In such a case, select the base speaker location. Keep «None» for normal down-firing speakers.
6. For each speaker, you can define whether replication is required. It is often used for multiple subwoofers or multiple rows of surround speakers.
7. Press Next to reach the next layer and follow again steps 1 to 6 until all three layers are defined.
8. At the end, a summary of the Speaker’s Configuration is shown.
9. Click Save to exit and go to the Speakers editing page.

THEATER DEFINITION (2/2)

Dirac Live Calibration

1. Once configured, the Theater is presented in Edit mode. Although an important feature of the ISR, we will not cover the Dirac Live Calibration process in this Quick Guide as it is not required to get a basic setup working. Please refer to the Owner Manual, should you need to run through the Automated Calibration process of your ISR using Dirac Live. Otherwise, please follow the below steps to configure the ISR manually.

Adjust the Bass Management

In this Quick Guide, we will only consider the Standard Bass Management setup:

1. For each Theater, it is possible to define multiple audio profiles (all Theater settings). By default, a «New Profile 1» is created.
2. Define the Size of each of your Speakers between Small, Large, and «Large and Sub». Small will filter the low frequencies and direct them to the Subwoofer. Large will maintain full bandwidth, while «Large and Sub» will also direct the Bass to the subwoofer channel.
3. When in Small, adjust the filter crossover frequency between the speaker and subwoofer.
4. When in Small, adjust the slope between 12dB, 24dB, 36dB, and 48 dB/octave (Linkwitz-Riley, Bessel, and Butterworth types).

Adjust Levels and Delay

1. Select the Delay and Level tab.
2. Set the Distance/Delay of each of the installed speakers (meter is the default unit, you can select feet or ms). Before proceeding to level adjustment, ensure the Output Mapping matches your connections (see section 6).
3. Select the Narrow Band pink noise signal and activate the Noise Generator, having first made sure the Master Volume is not at a too high level, such as < -30dB. Using the Group +/- button, navigate through each Speaker. Use the normal pink noise for the subwoofer adjustment.
4. Adjust the Level for each Speaker using an SPL Meter. We recommend adjusting the Levels with 75 to 85dB(C) average sound pressure as a reference.
5. There are up to 20 Parametric EQs available for each Speaker. Consult the Owner Manual for more details.
6. Once adjusted, you can Save your Audio Profile.
7. Save the Theater to leave the Edit mode.

OUTPUT MAPPING

1. If the physical connections are different from the default proposed mapping defined in the configuration (section 5), you can access the Output Mapping feature in the Main Speakers tab by selecting the Output Mapping button.
2. Change the channel assignment by inputting the correct channel in New Output.
3. When completed save the changes to exit and go back to the Speakers page.

PRESETS DEFINITION

Definition of Presets is required for playback by linking a Theater and an Audio Profile and making it accessible in the Remote Controls.

1. Select the Presets tab in the Burger Menu.
2. Some Presets have been created by default while configuring your Theater. You can create more Presets using the Create button or delete some.
3. A Preset is visible and accessible in the Remote Controls only if Active (Y) on the Presets page.
4. Change the Preset Name here.
5. Select which Theater should be activated when the Preset is selected.
6. Choose which Audio Profile for the selected Theater needs to be playing. This will call up all the related audio adjustments.
7. For each Preset, select whether the Audio Zones should be activated (recommended all active by default).
8. For each Preset, you can define which Preferred Upmix mode you wish to activate.

REMOTE CONTROL

StormRemote control applications

• Access the Web User Interface Remote Control (check section 3, Home Page, and select Remote Control) to control the ISR from your Web Browser.
• Use the StormRemote Control Application available on the app stores.

Independent Remote Control

• The IR control unit operates effectively within a distance of 23 feet (7 meters) and an angle of 30° from the processor.
• Using the control near fluorescent lights may shorten this range, as will any dust or dirt that accumulates on the front of the remote control or the remote-sensor area of the processor.
• Also, avoid blocking the line of sight between the processor and the remote.
• Install the two supplied AAA batteries in the remote as shown. Be certain to follow the (+) and (–) polarity indicators that are on the top of the battery compartment.

• These symbols shown on the product, the packaging, or in the manual or separate information sheet mean that the product itself, as well as the batteries included or built into the product, should never be thrown away with general household waste.
• Take them to applicable collection points, where proper treatment, recycling, and recovery take place, under national or local legislation, or European Directives 2002/96/EC and 2006/66/EC.
• Correct handling of the product and batteries to be disposed of helps save resources and prevents possible negative effects on the environment or human health.
• The batteries included with your equipment may be alkaline or carbon zinc/manganese. All types should be disposed of according to the above instructions.

WIRING RECOMMENDATIONS

Amplifier output modes: Single Ended vs Bridge Tied Load

• The ISR Fusion 20 offers 16ch of amplification with 150W (8ohm) in Single-Ended (SE) mode and 500W (8ohm) in Bridge Tied Load (BTL).
• The latter mode offers more power at the cost of reducing the number of channels available, as using two SE channels per BTL output. Up to three BTL channels (1/2, 5/6, and 9/10) can be defined during the Speaker’s layout configuration in section 5.
  Single-ended mode and Bridge Tied Load require different wiring schemes. Please refer to the below illustrations to correctly wire your system. Channels 1/2 are shown, but it applies to 5/6 and 9/10 too.

XLR pinout

• To connect the ISR to an amplifier or a subwoofer, you must use male-to-female XLR cables. The connector in the ISR is a Male XLR. We recommend up to 3m cables.

XLR to RCA unbalancing cable

• In some cases, it might be required to connect to amplifiers/subwoofers with unbalanced inputs.
• In such a case, the wiring should be done as shown.

USB ports

• There are two USB ports available used for StormMonitoring microphone connection and USB upgrade when no network access is available.
• The 2x ports can be used to provide a 5V power supply in the limit of 500mA maximum total consumption for the two ports. It should not be used though for HDMI dongle power supply usage.
