AC6 

Quickstart Guide

It is possible to edit the X,Y,Z physical location, 

Min Trim, Max Hang and Aim Angle in the 

Properties pane while that Array is selected.

If a venue and arrays have been created in 

Resolution, then representations of the Arrays 

and Modules in the model will be displayed in 

the Network Configuration View as grey boxes. 

Each module in the array will have a small 

indicator square that reports each module’s 

status.

• A question mark indicates that no 

physical module has been associated 

with the module in the model.

• A Yellow box indicates a module that has 

gone offline.

• A Red box indicates a module previously 

assigned that was not found upon 

reconnecting to the Network. 

• A box that occasionally flashes Green 

indicates the module is successfully 

communicating with Resolution.

Unassigned modeled Arrays will have the list 

of modules or loudspeakers included in the 

Array while non-arrayed loudspeakers will 

be shown as individual boxes with only one 

device listed. Arrays will be shown with the 

modules in Columns and the meters.

A physical AC6 Array in the Online Devices list 

can be assigned or associated with a modeled 

Array in the model by simply clicking on the 

Array in the list and dragging it on to the 

appropriate modeled Array. 

Note: the physical Array and modeled Array must 

include the same quantity and arrangement of 

modules). 

Assign all physical Arrays to modeled Arrays 

until all Arrays have been assigned.

Managing AC6 in Resolution

Once a physical Array has been associated 

with a modeled Array, the individual modules 

listed in the Array will be graphically arranged 

in Columns and a small square “indicator 

light” for each module. These indicators 

will periodically flash green to confirm 

that Resolution 2 has established active 

communications with each Anya module. 

Clicking an Array in the Network Configuration 

Desktop will display it’s properties in the 

Properties View window (if the Properties 

View window is opened) and can be edited as 

explained in the Properties View chapter.

Array Processing can be displayed and edited 

in real-time by double-clicking the EQ graph at 

the top of the Properties View window. 

Right clicking an Array will open a menu with 

options to open Array Processing, Unassign 

All, Edit the array (which will launch the Array 

Assistant), Clone the array, Save Array Preset, 

Lock array movement, or Remove array. These 

mirror functions available in the Project 

Explorer and Properties panes.
