1 Introducing IQ–MSD Turbo
Welcome to the Crown IQ–MSD Turbo program—software that brings the powerful monitor and control capabili-
ties of your IQ audio system to your PC-compatible computer. This manual will describe the use of version 1.4 of
IQ–MSD Turbo, referred from here on simply as Turbo.
With Turbo you can monitor and control your audio system from a remote location. It works with Crown’s
acclaimed IQ components, sophisticated audio components that are designed to work with Crown’s patented IQ
System
®
. But Turbo does much more than just monitor or control an IQ System. It also allows you to design, save
and reuse custom screens. We call these screens graphics plates (shown below) and they give you amazing
power over the operation of your IQ System.
A Turbo graphics plate gives you the ability to control what others can and cannot see or do with your IQ System.
And you can make them visually exciting and easy to use because you control the layout, size and color of each
object on the graphics plate.
