Functions on the down side of [Zone Settings] page:
Zone: Indicate a row is related to a zone.
Monitor: Enable/disable the zone monitoring, if the monitoring of a zone is disabled, the
IDA8C/S will not detect faults of that zone.
Backup: This setting will notice the IDA8 if the backup amplifier services the zone correctly.
For example, if the checkbox is not checked, the IDA8C/S will not switch to the backup
amplifier for the zone with the fault This results in the monitoring of the zone not working.
Mode: There are two types of mode:
1. 25V/70V/100V: An Audio signal through the amplifier and back to the IDA8C/S.
2. 0dB: Instead of going through the amplifier and back to the IDA8C/S, the audio will
output to other equipment and monitoring is disabled under this mode.
Tolerance(%): Specify the tolerance of impedance to detect a bad impedance fault. For
example, if the reference is 1000 ohm and the tolerance is set to 15%, the range of good
impedance will be 850 ~ 1150 ohm. If measured impedance value is 1300 ohm, a bad
impedance fault is recognized by the IDA8C/S.
Global Tolerance: Click to change the tolerance setting on [Tolerance%] grid for all the zones
of impedance value, which connected to all of the IDA8 processors. If the zone is not been
selected on [Global Tolerance] grid, the tolerance value will not change.
Get Reference: When the system is constructed, the user needs to get the impedance value of
the speaker for further reference. This value will be utilized to detect faults of zones. The rule
of fault detection is described in preview item "Tolerance(%)".
Reset Reference: Resets the reference value to empty, resulting in the disabling of zone
monitoring, but the measure value is still updated.
Functions on the right side of [Zone Settings] page:
Get All Reference: Click the button to get the reference of gain value on the selected IDA8
processor.
Global Get Reference: Click the button to get all the reference of impedance value on all the
IDA8 processors.
Reset All Reference: Click the button to reset the reference of impedance value on the
