SAFETY FOR USERS
All safety and operating instructions should be read before the product is
operated.
Power This unit should only use the same type as shown in this manual.
Power Cord Protection: Protect the power cord from being crushed;
especially the power plugs. Humidity: The unit should always be far away from
water and/or moist surfaces.
Electronic Shock: Be careful that liquid is not spilled inside the unit
through ventilation openings.
Temperature: Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators,
stoves, heating resistance, or other appliance(s) that produce heat.
Opening or Moving Covers: Refer any/all repairs or servicing to qualified
service personnel. To prevent the risk of shock, do not attempt to
service/repair this equipment yourself. Opening or moving covers may expose
you to dangerous voltage or another hazard (s.)
Cleaning: Do not use volatile liquid such as alcohol, paint thinner or
gasoline. Clean only using a dry cloth.
Smell: In the event of any suspicious burning smells or smoke, please
power off and unplug the power cord.
Long Term Idle:
- For your safety, please power off and unplug the power cord so as to prevent fire potential.
- Prevent water, metal, or other objects from falling inside the unit to avoid fire or electronic shock. If any of these occur, power off and unplug immediately and contact the authorized service center for diagnostic.
Warning: Do not tuck cable or cords under the unit or between other objects. Do not put the power cord in the crowd. Avoiding fire or electronic shock.
INTRODUCTION AND CONTENTS
Thank you for choosing this product. Be sure to inspect packaging and contents for any damages incurred during shipping and transit. Please read this User Manual before you connect or operate this device.
FEATURES
This device is a Professional Loud Speaker management based on DSP technology, with powerful functions and 1U frame height. It comes with 2 in 4 out, 2 in 6 out, 4 in 6 out, and 4 in 8 out, flexible for multiple X-over modes. Especially suitable for use at the scene of the performance.
- 96KHz sampling frequency, 32-bit DSP processor, 24-bit A/D and D/A converter.
- USB, RS232 interface, and WiFi are available for PC software.
- 12 groups of user settings.
- 8 bands PEQ, Gain (±20dB) are for each channel. Lo-shelf and Hi-shelf are for output channels.
- Adjustable HPF/LPF. Type: Bessel, Butterworth (12dB, 18dB, 24 dB for selection) and Linkwitz-Riley(12dB,18dB,24dB or 48dB for selection).
- The parameters of HPF/LPF can be adjusted independently, and the asymmetric crossover functions can be realized.
- Each input and output channel has Delay, Polarity, and mute, max delay of 1000ms. Unit of delay can be chosen from ms, m, or ft.
- Gain, Limiter, and Signal Input can be set for each output channel. Multiple output channels can be linked to set synchronously.
CONNECTING INSTRUCTIONS
Connector operation: These series are with USB, RS232, and WiFi connectors.
Signal level: As with other signal processing equipment, the device should be
with a suitable signal level to reduce S/N. These series are with menu choices
to avoid this problem. When selecting a signal level, Please choose max level
±6dB when the LED indicator just lights up. As we add 3dB, at this time,
peaking clipping is actually 9dB. To operate EQ, one should reduce the input
level to avoid peak clipping of gain. Attention: Max input level in technical
parameter form is not safety level but peaking level. To make sure peaking
clipping is not less than the next device, and keep some extra level.
Ground connecting: All the audio Ground Pin should be connected with the power
switch Ground Pin, as well as the device case. The power supply of this device
must be properly grounded. Signals ground (OV) should be connected with the
device case ground. Avoiding Ground Loop, Signal cable can only be Grounded at
the XLR interface.
