PRESET
The SW36XFA has three factory presets already stored inside the CORE DSP, these preset are ready to
use the sub in combination with AX2010A vertical array loudspeaker or any other professional audio
system:
STANDARD PRESET:
the response starts at 45Hz and the cutoff is at 100Hz with LR 24dB/oct., use this
preset for almost any application at ground stack and it must be used with the SW36XFA set as flown
(see FLOWN SET UP).
INFRASUB PRESET:
the response starts at 36Hz and the cutoff is at 60Hz with LR 24dB/oct., use this
preset when a very deep bass response is required, it must be used at ground stack only, alone or
in combination with some other boxes set as STANDARD, absolutely do not use it in combination of
CARDIOD preset. NOTE: INFRA and STANDARD PRESET must NOT be used together in close units.
CARDIOD PRESET:
the response of this preset is the same of STANDARD preset but when combined together as described further the sub stack is
capable to cancel tha bass in the backwards, absolutely it must be used in combination of other two boxes and at ground stack.
PREDICTION: EASE Focus 2
To aim correctly a complete system we suggests to use always the Aiming Software - EASE Focus 2:
The EASE Focus 2 Aiming Software is a 3D Acoustic Modelling Software that serves for the configuration and modelling of Line Arrays and
conventional speakers close to reality. It only considers the direct field, created by the complex addition of the sound contributions of the individual
loudspeakers or array components.
The design of EASE Focus is targeted at the end user. It allows the easy and quick prediction of the array performance in a given venue. The
scientific base of EASE Focus stems from EASE, the professional electro- and room acoustic simulation software developed by AFMG Technologies
GmbH. It is based on the EASE GLL loudspeaker data file required for its use:
AXIOM_AX Series_v2_3.GLL
, please note that the version must be
2.3 or more. The GLL file contains the data that defines the Line Array with regard to its possible configurations as well as to its geometrical and
acoustical properties.
Download the EASE Focus 2 app from the AXIOM website at http://www.axiomproaudio.com/ clicking on downloads section of the product.
Use the menu option
Edit / Import System Definition File
to import the file
AXIOM_AX Series_v2_3.gll
from the installation Data folder, the
detailed instructions to use the program are located in the menu option
Help / User’s Guide

Note: Some windows system can require the
.NET Framework 4
that can be download from microsoft website at http://www.microsoft.com/en-

WARNING! CAREFULLY READ THE FOLLOWING INSTRUCTIONS AND CONDITION OF USE:
• This loudspeaker is designed exclusively for Professional audio applications. The product must be installed by qualified personal only.
• Proel strongly recommends that this loudspeaker cabinet be suspended taking into consideration all current National, Federal, State and Local
regulations. Please contact the manufacturer for further information.
• Proel do not accept any liability for damage caused to third parties due to improper installation, lack of maintenance, tampering or improper
use of this product, including disregard of acceptable and applicable safety standards.
• During assembly pay attention to the possible risk of crushing. Wear suitable protective clothing. Observe all instructions given on the rigging
components and the loudspeaker cabinets. When chain hoists are in operation ensure that there is nobody directly underneath or in the vicinity
of the load. Do not under any circumstances climb on the array.
AIMING and SUSPENDING INSTRUCTIONS (FLOWN SET UP)
Suspending the sub-woofers has different advantages and some inconvenient. One inconvenient is that it’s not possible to use the cardioid
configuration, while another one is that as the sub-woofers don’t couple with the ground and indoor usage can have different behaviours
depending on ceiling and walls. The advantages are that the space underneath the stage can be free from subs, the coupling between sub and
sat is better and, using a column of 4-6 sub boxes, the basses can be steered more deeply into the audience with a more uniform distribution of
the low frequencies.
The SW36XFA subwoofers can be suspended alone or at the top
of a vertical array of AX2010A loudspeakers using the KPTSW36
fly bar. The boxes are linked together in a column using a series of
couplers integrated in the frame of each enclosure. Each system can
be set properly both acoustically and mechanically, using the aiming
software.
Coupling the system in the front does not require any adjustment:
using two locking pins, each loudspeaker box is fixed to the previous.
The slotted bar in the back is inserted in a U-shaped frame that
features a series of numbered holes. Sliding the slotted bar in the U-
shaped frame of the next loudspeaker and inserting a locking pin in
one of the numbered holes, it is possible to adjust the relative splay
angle between two adjacent loudspeakers in the array column.
KPTSW36
fly bar maximum capacity is 780 Kg (1719 lbs) with
the 0° angle. It can support, with a safety factor of 10:1, up
to:
• 16 AX2010A (flybar from 0 to 10°)
• 2 S 12 AX2010A (flybar from 0 to 10°)
• 6 S 4 AX2010A (flybar from 0 to 10°)
• 8 SW36XFA (flybar at 0°)
Follow the sequence in the figure for fixing the fly bar at the first box.
Usually this is the first step before lifting up the system. Be careful to
