PRODUCT DETAILS
7.
Remote Gain Attenuator (DSP model only)
A -pin phoenix connector has been provided to remotely adjust the
volume of the Inception 12DSP loudspeaker. It can also be used to
put the speaker into standby mode. By varying the voltage on the
center-most pin b5V (provided on the +5V pin) and the
ground pin, the volume can be controlled linearly. The voltage on
the center pin can be created by using a potentiometer or provided
from an external source. Users can wire their potentiometers to
control numerous speakers at one time.
A relay or manual connection can be made between the center
pin and the ground pin to put the Inception speaker into standby
mode.
WARNING:
Do not apply more than +5V or less than ground to
the center pin as it may result in a malfunctioning unit. We do not
advise users connect the center pin directly to the +5V pin.
8.
Front LED Mode (DSP model only)
This switch lets users determine the operation of the LED
indicator on the front of the Inception speaker. Users can decide
whether to the LED indicates the power is on, off, or activated
upon limiting.
9.
Timed Turnoff (DSP model only)
This switch allows users to activate and deactivate the timed turnoff
function of the Inception speaker. If active, the Inception speaker
will turn itself off after 5 minutes of non-operation.
10.
2-band Equalizer (Inception 12A only)
These two controls allow users to boost and cut high and low
frequencies by ±10 dB.
11.
Low Cut Filter (Inception 12A only)
The Inception 12A offers a dedicated Linkwitz-Riley low-cut
filter, allowing the speaker to remove low-frequency sounds and
effectively remove rumble and low-frequency noise. Users are
able to select the cut-off frequency up to 180Hz using the provided
rotary control. Turning the control all the way counter-clockwise
will effectively disable the low cut filter.
1.
Combo Input Jacks
Inception speakers are design to accept either line or microphone
level signals through male ¼” phone or XLR jacks (balanced or
unbalanced). Users can select the input mode using the Mic/Line
switch located underneath the input jack.
2.
Mic/Line Switch
When set to Mic, this switch will allow the corresponding combo
input jack to accept microphone-level signals. When set to Line,
the input jack will accept virtually all other kinds of input signal.
3.
Sig/Peak Indicator
When any signal is received by the input channel, the channel’s
Sig/Peak indicator will light up green. If that signal peaks, it will
flash red. In this event, we suggest lowering the output level of
your source signal.
4.
RCA Inputs (DSP model only)
Channel 1 offers RCA input connectors for direct input of
consumer-grade devices such as CD players and MP players.
The signals will be summed for output through the speaker and
from the line output connector.
5.
Gain Control
These controls allow users to adjust the incoming signal from the
Combo input jacks. Setting them to the left-most position (-∞ dB)
will completely cut the incoming signal, whereas the right-most
position will add 10dB of boost to the signal.
6.
Line Output
The XLR line output sends the final mix of the channel 1 and 2
input signals, allowing the signals to be employed by additional
speakers or other devices. Do not under any circumstances
connect this output connector to the input of the same unit. This
will cause an unpleasant audio loop.
