8. Conguration of the DSP
The general DSP settings should be con-
ducted with the DSP PC-Tool software be-
fore using the signal processor for the rst
time.
Ignoring this advice may result in damaging the
connected ampliers / the loudspeakers. Infor-
mation about connecting the DSP.3S to a com-
puter can be found below.
9. Connecting the remote output
This output (Remote out) is used to supply re-
mote signals to the external amplier/s.
Always use this remote output signal to turn on
the amplier/s in order to avoid on / o󰀨 switch-
ing noises.
It is possible to freely congure the HELIX DSP.3S
with our DSP PC-Tool software.
The user interface is designed for easy handling of
all functions and allows an individual adjustment of
each of the eight DSP channels. Prior to connect-
ing the signal processor to your PC visit our web-
site and download the latest version of the DSP
PC-Tool software.
Check from time to time for software updates. You
will nd the software and a huge knowledge base at
www.audiotec-scher.com.
We strongly recommend to carefully read the DSP
PC-Tool knowledge base before using the software
for the rst time in order to avoid any complications
and failures.
Important: Make sure that the signal processor is
not connected to your computer before the software
and USB driver are installed!
In the following the most important steps how to
connect and the rst start-up are described:
1. Download the latest version of the DSP
PC-Tool software (available on our website
www.audiotec-scher.com) and install it on
your computer.
2. Connect the signal processor to your comput-
er using the USB cable that is included in de-
livery. If you have to bridge longer distances
please use an active USB extension cable with
integrated repeater or the optionally available
WIFI CONTROL interface.
3. First turn on the signal processor and then start
the software. The operating software will be up-
dated automatically to the latest version if it is
not up-to-date.
4. Now you are able to congure your HELIX
DSP.3S with our intuitive DSP PC-Tool soft-
ware. Nevertheless, interesting and useful
hints can be found in our knowledge base at
www.audiotec-scher.com.
Caution: We highly recommend to set the vol-
ume of your car radio to minimum position during
rst start-up. Additionally no devices should be
connected to the signal processor until general
settings in the DSP PC-Tool software have been
made. Especially if the DSP.3S will be used in fully
active applications, a wrong setup can destroy your
speakers right away.
