COMPACT LINE ARRAY SOUND REINFORCEMENT SYSTEM AMPLIFIER MODULE WITH DSP The amplifier module embedded in the system has been made some optimization based on previous version. RS-485 and USB port are added into it for computer connection, it will be very convenient for user to configurate system parameters by software.
COMPACT LINE ARRAY SOUND REINFORCEMENT SYSTEM SOFTWARE APPLICATION GUIDE How to get the software The software is stored in the CD with equipment packaging. The latest version also may be downloaded from the company website. Software installation System requirement: Microsoft Windows 98/XP or above version. Display resolution should be 1024*768 or above. The computer must have a RS-232 port or USB port. Run the " Active Speaker Controller (V1.34).
COMPACT LINE ARRAY SOUND REINFORCEMENT SYSTEM SOFTWARE APPLICATION GUIDE 1.3> Program: Obtain the information of currently used configuration file (Disconnection status),or the information of current program in the equipment(Connection status). On disconnection status, only "Display Current Program No", "Display Current Program Name" , "Edit Current Program Name" and "Load Factory Default Configuration" may be valid. All changes do not affect the equipment internal program settings.
COMPACT LINE ARRAY SOUND REINFORCEMENT SYSTEM SOFTWARE APPLICATION GUIDE Figure 3 If found device, shown as Figure 4: Figure 4 Devices online are listed at left, the right part shows the information of the device chosen by user. If user want to use the config file that opens from computer, " Download Program Data to Device " must be chosen(the operation execute transmitting the parameters into Device's RAM, if no further save into device operation, the parameters will be lost after the device power off).
COMPACT LINE ARRAY SOUND REINFORCEMENT SYSTEM SOFTWARE APPLICATION GUIDE After connecting successfully, the software will update the display automatically, and show the information of currently connected device, and current program used by device, see Figure 5: Figure 5 On above interface, click corresponding function button, and executing those operation that you want. 3. Recall or Save the configuration file. When the device used in different places, the different configuration file are necessary.
COMPACT LINE ARRAY SOUND REINFORCEMENT SYSTEM SOFTWARE APPLICATION GUIDE 3.2>User also may save the parameters in the device, total max six programs may be saved through " Save as current program in device" under " program " menu. See Figure 7: Figure 7 According to the different file source, the two ways are available for recall the existing configuration file. For the file saved in the computer, it may be recalled from " Open " under " File " menu.
COMPACT LINE ARRAY SOUND REINFORCEMENT SYSTEM SOFTWARE APPLICATION GUIDE 4. Change the information of the device that is online. Device information means the identifier of device, such as the description of device position etc, Include ID and device name. After connecting, it may be changed through clicking" Edit current device information " in device menu, See Figure 9: ! Attention: ID number is only available for number 1~10, that's to say only max 10 device may be connected one RS-485 Net.
COMPACT LINE ARRAY SOUND REINFORCEMENT SYSTEM SOFTWARE APPLICATION GUIDE 6. Disconnection. After finishing the adjustment of parameters, the current parameters may be saved into the device for the next power on operation. If user does not save the program into device, all the changes based on previous parameters will not be saved. Choose "Disable communications" under "communications" menu to disconnection.
COMPACT LINE ARRAY SOUND REINFORCEMENT SYSTEM APPLICATION EXAMPLES 1.Save current program as another program with new name. If user want to save as another program with new name, user should select "program save as" command first, then select "edit current program name" command. Please see details as below example. 1 After uploading the Program No.
COMPACT LINE ARRAY SOUND REINFORCEMENT SYSTEM APPLICATION EXAMPLES 3) Then select "Edit Current Program Name" command in "Program" menu: 4) Then on the "Set Current Program Name " interface, edit the program name as you want: Changed to "my concert hall" as the bellow figure 21
COMPACT LINE ARRAY SOUND REINFORCEMENT SYSTEM APPLICATION EXAMPLES 5) Click "OK" button, thus the "Current Program Name:" on the main interface has been changed to "my concert hall".
COMPACT LINE ARRAY SOUND REINFORCEMENT SYSTEM APPLICATION EXAMPLES 2.Save the program which is uploading from device as a file in computer. Operation for file is only effected on disconnection status. If on connection status, "Edit current program name" is immeditaly valid(auto save into the device). If want to use the config file for later use with another device, You may modify the "program name" on disconnection status.and save as another file.
COMPACT LINE ARRAY SOUND REINFORCEMENT SYSTEM APPLICATION EXAMPLES Edit Program Name to "my modified program 3", then click "OK" button. 3) Then select "Save As" command in "File" menu. 4) In the "File Name(N) " frame, input "next hall.asc " ,then click "Save(S) " button.
COMPACT LINE ARRAY SOUND REINFORCEMENT SYSTEM APPLICATION EXAMPLES 3.Downloading a file into device, and save as program in device. 1) After downloading the config file into DEVICE(only to RAM, before select "Save As Current Program In Device" command, the parameters have not saved into FLASH ROM!) 2) Select "Save As Current Program In Device" command in "Program" menu: 3) Then select the No(for example No.
COMPACT LINE ARRAY SOUND REINFORCEMENT SYSTEM APPLICATION EXAMPLES Click "OK" button ,then the parameters of config file(next_hall.asc) have been saved as program No.4 in device.
