The larger right portion of the Properties windows varies with the operating mode. The Connect window is divided into an upper light
grey Internal DSP Connections section and and a darker grey lower CobraNet Routing Assignments section.
The Assign Amplifier Inputs portion of the upper section is where you select which one of the Array’s multiple inputs will be routed to the
Main input and which one will be used for the Priority override circuit. RHAON Empowered loudspeakers have provisions for two
CobraNet digital audio inputs, two analog audio inputs and a serial audio (AES3id format) digital input. Selecting the input is as simple
as clicking on one of the radio buttons.
Notice that the Analog 1 input includes a 10 dBa pad. In the On position it inserts a 10 dBa pad into the Analog 1 input, allowing input
signals as high as +24 dBu. Without the pad, the analog inputs clip at +12 dBu.
The square Signal Present indicators
turn green whenever a signal is pres-
ent.. You can activate any of the ana-
log and CobraNet digital inputs in the
upper group. If you select either of the
AES/EBU inputs in the lower group,
all Analog and CobraNet inputs are
disabled.
The right hand portion of the upper
section (CobraNet) lets you use any
of the audio inputs or amplifier out-
puts as an output to the CobraNet
network, except for the AES/EBU
inputs. AES/EBU signals are clocked
separately from CobraNet and cannot
be output to CobraNet from RHAON.
You can also send composite amplifi-
er output signals to a monitor loud-
speaker located elsewhere.
The lower section is where you
select the CobraNet input channel
you want to use and set up the
output transmitter.
You can use RHAON without digi-
tal audio distribution via CobraNet
to Control and Supervise your sys-
tem, or you can combine digital
and analog signal distribution for
redundant signal paths and/or life
safety applications. However, if
you use AES/EBU serial digital
inputs, all other audio inputs are
automatically disabled.
If you are not using CobraNet for
digital audio distribution in your
RHAON system, you can skip the
next few pages and move on to
Control mode (page 20).
