Or alternatively, if you want to have one cable feeding two speakers, use Speakon 1 (or 3)
pins 1+ and 1- for the first speaker, and pins 2+ and 2- for the second speaker.
For Bridge operation, use Speakon 1 (or 3) pins 1+ and 2+ (1+ for S and 2+ for
speaker -)
Communications Port Connections
Danley Sound Labs DNA5K4 series DSP amplifiers may be controlled and monitored using
the PodWare PC application. There are two ways of connecting your computer to DNA5K4:
1 – Using the
USB
socket (when you want to connect your computer to just one DNA5K4)
2 – Using the
BvNet network
sockets (when you want to control several products)
When using the BvNet sockets, you will need to use a BvNet USB/RS232 Interface
accessory to allow your computer to communicate with the BvNet network.
Before connecting a USB port from your computer to either the USB socket on DNA5K4, or
to a BvNet USB/RS232 Interface, you will
first
need to run the USB driver installation utility
which you will find on the CD-ROM supplied with this product, or may be downloaded from
http://www.danleysoundlabs.com
Once the USB driver utility has been installed, you can then plug in your USB lead from
your computer. With operating systems such as Vista or Windows7, you should not need
to intervene in any way. With other operating systems (such as XP), you will need to go
through the USB driver installation process which will initiate when you plug your USB
cable in. This generally involves accepting the default answers. For further help on this
process, please see the USB driver installation notes on the CD-ROM or on the website.
When using the BvNet Network, you should connect from a Link socket on one device to
the In socket on another device. The BvNet network may be ‘daisy chained’ in this way
through as many devices as you require (although a sensible limit would be perhaps 24
devices, after which you should consider using more than one BvNet USB/RS232 Interface
to create more than one sub-network). A BvNet network can have a total length of up to
1km using Cat5 cable. If you are using USB to connect to the BvNet USB/RS232 Interface,
then the Interface will usually power itself via USB. However, if you are using RS232, or if
you are using an unpowered USB hub, or you have some network powered BvNet network
