Overview Features The SRP-X500P is a versatile powered mixer which incorporates an audio mixer, RGB/video switcher, processor, and power amplifier into a 3U-rack-size unit. external personal computer or system controller to control the SRP-X500P. • REMOTE PARALLEL connector Input signal selection, volume control and scene control of the SRP-X500P can be performed via the input pins.
SRP-X500P Manager This is a program for setting the SRP-X500P parameters from a PC. The English and the Simplified Chinese versions are provided. Operating Conditions How to open files The recommended operating environment for using the SRP-X500P Manager is as follows. 1 2 Insert the supplied CD-ROM into the CD-ROM drive, then click “My Computer.” OS Microsoft Windows Millennium Edition Microsoft Windows 2000 Professional Microsoft Windows XP Professional Double-click “SRP-X500P.
Precautions • The SRP-X500P must be used within a temperature range of 0°C to 40°C (32°F to 104°F). • Operating the SRP-X500P near electrical equipment (motors, transformers, or dimmers) may cause it to be affected by electromagnetic induction. Keep the SRPX500P as far from such equipment as possible. • The presence of the lighting equipment may produce electrical interference over a very wide frequency range.
Location and Function of Parts Front panel 1 2 3 qk qj 45 6 qh qg qf qd 7 qs qa q; 8 9 (In the figure above, the two blank panels are removed.) A POWER switch Turns the SRP-X500P on and off. With the SRP-X500P Manager software, you can set a parameter that will cause the projector or display monitor connected to the SRP-X500P to turn on or enter standby status when the POWER switch is pressed.
MIC 3: Adjusts the level of the signal input from the MIC INPUT 3 connector. MIC 4: Adjusts the level of the signal input from the MIC INPUT 4 connector. LINE: Adjusts the level of the signals input from the LINE IN connectors. AV/RGB: Adjusts the level of the signals input from the AV/RGB INPUT audio connectors, as specified by the J AV/RGB SELECT buttons. I MASTER control Adjusts the output level of the assigned channels.
Note For control of an LCD Data Projector VPL-PX15, use the CONTROL S connectors instead of the PROJECTOR CONTROL RS-232C connector. N SYSTEM TYPE selector Can be set to positions 1-9, according to the speaker configuration of the AV system being used. (Select position 0 only when setting the system type using the SRP-X500P Manager software.) The setting becomes effective next time the power is turned on. Thus, change the setting while the SRP-X500P is turned off.

Installing the tuner units Up to two WRU-806 UHF Synthesizer Tuner Units (not supplied) or two URX-M1 Tuner Units included in the UWP-X1/X2 (not supplied) can be installed in the SRPX500P.
Note When removing the blank panels to the SRP-X500P, be sure to start with the small panel. Rack mounting GP button + button CH button – button RF indicator About the rack Use an EIA-standard 19-inch rack with a depth of 450 mm or more. Use four screws of the same diameter as the rack screw holes and with an effective length of 12 mm or more to mount the SRP-X500P into the rack. Rack 1 Turn on the SRP-X500P. 2 Press and hold down the GP button, and press the + or – button to select a group.
Releasing the buttons automatically cancels the group and channel selection mode, and the currently displayed group is selected. Refer to “Wireless Microphone System Frequency List” supplied with the WRU-806. 3 Press and hold down the CH button, and press the + or – button in 3 seconds to select a channel. Similer to step 2, each time you press the + or – button, the CH indication changes in the order shown in the group and reception channel list.
System Configurations and Speaker Connections Sample configuration using the SRP-X500P factory-settings In this configuration, the SRP-X500P can be used without having to change the settings with the supplied SRP-X500P Manager software.
Sample system configuration with a custom operation panel and environmental equipment connected In this configuration, the SRP-X500P can be controlled by a custom operation panel or an external system controller.
To connect low-impedance speakers to the SPEAKERS CH-3/4 terminals Speaker connection Only speakers with low impedance (4 to 16Ω) can be connected to the SPEAKERS CH-1/2 terminals. Speakers of high or low impedance can be connected to the SPEAKERS CH-3/4 terminals by setting the SYSTEM TYPE selector. The SPEAKERS CH-3/4 terminals are factory-set so that the speakers with high impedance can be connected. Set the SYSTEM TYPE selector to “2,” “5,” “6,” “7,” “8,” or “9.
SPEAKERS MIC IN Audio from the AV components is output from the front speakers in stereo, and audio from the microphones is output from the ceiling speakers to enhance clarity.
SYSTEM TYPE 4 For a speaker system consisting of high-impedance ceiling speakers (70V LINE). Adjust the SPEAKER OUT controls so that the output level from the SPEAKERS CH-1/2 terminals and from the SPEAKERS CH-3/4 terminals is equal to each other. • Input/output SPEAKERS SP 1 MIC IN ON/OFF ON LEVEL Audio from the AV components (monaural) and the microphones is output from the ceiling speakers.
• Delay SYSTEM TYPE 6: Select when no compensation is necessary. SYSTEM TYPE 7: Select when the distance between the front speakers and the satellite speakers are 5 meters to 8 meters (16.7 feet to 26.7 feet). SYSTEM TYPE 8: Select when the distance between the front speakers and the satellite speakers are 8 meters to 11 meters (26.7 feet to 36.7 feet). SYSTEM TYPE 9: Select when the distance between the front speakers and the satellite speakers are 11 meters to 14 meters (36.7 feet to 46.7 feet).
BACK REDUCER button to cancel the procedure, turn down the SPEAKER OUT control, then try again. • Do not make a noise while the SRP-X500P is scanning the frequency bands, as this may cause error in detection. • When you use the AGC (automatic gain control) function, do the setting by using the SRP-X500P Manager software before performing the procedure above.
