NOTES:
The steps in Section 4.1 correspond to the diagram.
These steps do not include all available operating parameters nor are they in the appropriate order for all situations.
When configured for specific loudspeaker models, output parameters are preset and unavailable for adjustment.
4.1 ADJUST OPERATING PARAMETERS
(UX8800 front panel or EAWPilot)
1. Global Setup
Operating Mode:
Select ‘Loudspeaker Processor’
Inputs A & B / Inputs C & D:
Select input signal type: Analog or AES Ch 1 & 2
Temperature & Humidity:
Adjust values to current conditions
2. Channel A to Channel D Source:
Source: Select one or two signal sources for each input
3. Channel A to Channel D Type:
Select loudspeaker model
Input Channels A to D

INPUT/OUTPUT NOTES - The input and output configurations shown are
only for purposes of this diagram.
1. Input Channels A to C are shown as if configured for specific loudspeakers
or loudspeaker arrays.
2. Outputs 1 to 6 are shown as not yet selected for the Input Channels.
3. Input Channel D is shown as if configured for Generic Processing with
Outputs 7 and 8 available for its use.
3. SELECT THE LOUDSPEAKER
OR LOUDSPEAKER ARRAY TYPE.
5. SELECT THE OUTPUT(S)
TO BE USED FOR THE
SELECTED LOUDSPEAKER
OR LOUDSPEAKER ARRAY.
4. ADJUST THE CROSSOVER
FILTER AS NEEDED.
NOTE: This will be primarily
a high-pass or low-pass filter
for subwoofer use.
7. ADJUST EACH INPUT
CHANNEL’S PARAMETERS.
6. FOR EACH OUTPUT CHANNEL, SELECT:
- AMPLIFIER GAIN
1
- AMPLIFIER MAXIMUM VOLTAGE
1
- DISTANCE FOR THE AIR-LOSS PRE-EMPHASIS
2
NOTES:
1. These set the values needed for the limiting
function in the output channel.
2. This, along with the humidity value set in the UTIL menu,
sets the value needed for the Air-Loss Pre-emphasis function
in the output channel.
OUTPUT NOTE:
For Generic Processing, EAWPilot must be used to adjust output channel EQ, gain, polarity, limiting, and delay.
The default values are set for a “flat” response, meaning no processing.
NOTE: Connector B
is disabled if A is set
to use AES/EBU
NOTE: Connector D
is disabled if C is set
to use AES/EBU
1. FOR EACH INPUT
CONNNECTOR, SELECT
THE INPUT SIGNAL
TYPE. Type Choices:
- Input A&B Analog
- Input A AES Ch 1&2
- Input C&D Analog
- Input C AES Ch 1&2
2. FOR EACH INPUT CHANNEL, SELECT
ONE OR TWO SIGNAL SOURCES.
Signal Source Choices:
- Analog A to D
- AES Channels 1 or 2
from connectors A and/or C
- U-Net Channels 1 to 32
