DACS4 CONNECTIONS AND USE
DACS4 Connections and Use:
The following instructions are written on the assumption that the Synthesis system installation is complete and that basic
functionality of the system has been confirmed. If this is not so, please refer to the system installation documentation.
It is also assumed that the installation uses standard Synthesis components in a standard five-c subwoofer con-
figuration. If this is not so, please refer to alternate configuration documentation or call your JBL Synthesis representative
for specific instructions.
Do not attempt to connect the DACS4 hardware to Synthesis while the system is on.
Things To Consider When Selecting A Location For DACS4:
The complete system calibration will take two-to-three hours; therefore, you should give the location of the test setup
some thought. Try to set up DACS4 in a comfortable location within the room to be calibrated. Here are some locations
to avoid:
1. Directly in front of any speaker
2. In a traffic lane
3. Any location that prevents you from seeing the SDP-2 front panel or the projector screen
4. Any location that interferes with remote control operation
5. In the main seating area (this is where the microphones will be)
6. On the floor
Whatever location you choose, use reasonable caution when laying interconnect cables around the room. Cables crossing
traffic lanes should be taped down to diminish the tripping hazard loose wires represent. Of course, this would also put the
DACS4 hardware in jeopardy.
