Switches on the SETTINGS panel

The three switches on the SETTINGS panel control different functions . 

CONTROL

The CONROL switch toggles between backplate mode and network mode .

Local 

– backplate mode

If the CONTROL switch is in the 

Local

 position, the loudspeaker will not respond to network 

commands . The loudspeaker can only be controlled using the controls on the backplate .

Network 

– network mode

If the CONTROL switch is in the 

Network

 position, the loudspeaker responds to the network 

commands from the 

MA 1 – Automatic Monitor Alignment

 software . The controls marked 

*

 on 

the back of the loudspeaker are ignored .

If the CONTROL switch is set to 

Network

 but there is no network connection and the 

MA 1 – 

Automatic Monitor Alignment

 software is not active, the most recent network configuration is 

used .

If you have configured any settings via the 

MA 1 – Automatic Monitor Alignment

 software and 

you remove the network cable, the current settings will stay active .

By switching from network control to local control, you can easily switch between a configu-
ration set in the 

MA 1 – Automatic Monitor Alignment

 software and settings made directly on 

the loudspeaker . 

This is useful if you want to temporarily use the loudspeaker in a location other than the studio 
environment you configured . 

The loudspeaker does not lose its settings even when you disconnect it from the network or 
the power supply .

INPUT SELECT

The INPUT SELECT switch toggles between the analog input and the digital inputs .

Set the INPUT SELECT switch to ANALOG if you intend to feed an analog signal into the XLR 
socket labeled ANALOG INPUT .

Set the INPUT SELECT switch to S/PDIF L or S/PDIF R if you intend to feed a digital AES3id or 
S/PDIF signal into the RCA socket labeled DIGITAL S/PDIF INPUT . 

Set the INPUT SELECT switch on the left loudspeaker to S/PDIF L and the right speaker’s INPUT 
SELECT switch to S/PDIF R for normal stereo mode . 

If the loudspeakers are used as surround speakers in larger systems, the channels must be 
configured based on how they are assigned in the source . In this case, channel A (digital sub-
frame A) corresponds to the left channel and channel B (digital subframe B) corresponds to the 
right channel .

Set the INPUT SELECT switch to AES67 if you want to feed in a digital AES67 signal via the 
Ethernet interface . Only the first channel of the AES67 audio stream is played .
