CHAPTER 5: COMPASS CONTROL SOFTWARE
Compass Control Software provides comprehensive control
of CAL through a graphical user interface. The software
enables easy access to all CAL features and supports
control of multiple units. Compass runs on a Mac or
Windows-based computer.
With Compass you can:
•
Set the active input and override input
•
Configure vertical beam spread, vertical beam angle,
and beam split
•
Assign processing to beams, including gain, delay, and
parametric EQ
•
Edit, store, recall, and organize CAL presets
•
Test fault contact
•
Monitor loudspeaker system status and performance
data from the RMS tab
Compass includes full copy and paste of all settings and
groups of settings, and multiple levels of undo. The tabbed
interface can be scaled to any display resolution and the
colors can be configured for day or night. Compass has the
same user interface, whether running on a Mac or
Windows
- based computer, so switching between platforms
is completely transparent.
The Beam Control tab displays CAL’s vertical beam spread
and vertical beam angle, both of which can be altered by
entering angle values or by dragging in the beam view area.
Beam splits can also be configured on the Beam Control tab
(CAL 64 and CAL 96 only).
The RMS tab reports extensive system status and
performance data for each CAL loudspeaker on the
network, including amplifier voltage, limiting activity, power
output, driver status, and temperature.
