CONNECTORS FOR REMOTE MANAGEMENT
The USB connector on the front panel of HD2050.20 amplifier, enables to connect the system
to a PC.
The connection allows to remotely control the amplifier’s DSP (Digital Signal Processor), to
modify some parameters or customize the frequency response of the system using the para-
metric equalizer.
To modify the DSP settings it is necessary to install and use PodWare PC software supplied on
CD with the amplifier. To use PodWare software it’s necessary to install the USB driver sup-
plied on CD (for installation instructions please refer to software installation manual).
The two EtherCon connectors are dedicated for functions available when the system is used
with other amplified loudspeakers having DSP on board. Through these connectors, multiple
speakers with DSP on board, can be chained together and controlled individually with a single
software.
To remotely manage HD2050.20 amplifier from a PC the supplied software must be installed
on a PC running Windows operating system. The system also works on Apple computers run-
ning Windows in emulation or Leopard with Boot Camp. The software requires DotNETV2SP1
Framework available on the supplied CD.
Once the software is installed (see installation manual), connect the USB cable from
HD2050.20 USB socket to PC USB port and run PodWare software.
To connect to the amplifier go to menu Networks >> Add networks , and select the USB port
detected by the system. Then click the red triangle icon that, upon connection, will turn to
green. The software provides a online help with detailed explanations of all the operations pos-
sible with the system.
