USB-RS485 CONVERTER
An MLA system includes at least one MLA608A for mid-low frequencies and one MLA801A for high frequencies. The whole system can be
controlled either manually, using the selector switches on the rear of every sound diffuser, or by connecting the sound system to the PC.
SYSTEM CONNECTION
Use an USB cable to connect the PC to the USB-RS485 converter, and then connect the latter to the first loudspeaker (NETWORK IN) with a
standard Ethernet cable. Connect the loudspeakers in sequence using Ethernet cables (NETWORK OUT to NETWORK IN) and place on
the last loudspeaker output the proper RJ45 bridge provided together with the MLA801A sound diffuser.
The sequence of loudspeakers
shall match the order of the system programmed on the PC, starting from the first loudspeaker detected by the software as
adjacent to the FRAME.
The software does not currently support multiple interconnected systems; if more than one system is installed,
each system shall be programmed individually. Therefore, only one converter per installation will be required.
