DP Series loudspeaker systems utilize Harman Professional’s HiQnet™ protocol
to enable a complete configuration, control, and monitoring solution. HiQnet protocol provides remote
access to loudspeaker preset files in the JBL DrivePack® input modules making system setup easy yet
powerful, via the DrivePack Software Device Control Panel with its intuitive, user-friendly graphical interface.
HiQnet System Architect™ provides complete software control of not only your JBL DrivePack-equipped
loudspeakers, but also other HiQnet-compatible audio components within the total system.
It is recommended to visit www.harman.com for the most up to date version of HiQnet System Architect.
QUICK-START CONFIGURATION GUIDE
For JBL DrivePack-equipped loudspeaker Systems using System Architect software
INTRODUCTION:
This guide applies to all JBL loudspeaker models powered by DrivePack DP1, DP or DP amplifier
assemblies which incorporate DPAN, DPCN or DPDA input modules.
Each loudspeaker must be connected to a 100BaseT Ethernet switch using a standard CAT-5 cable.
Loudspeakers with DPDA input modules could alternatively use one CAT-5-to-switch connection per cluster.
The control computer which will run System Architect must also be connected by a 100BaseT connection to
a switch on the same physical network.
If managed Ethernet switches are a part of the network, additional knowledge of TCP/IP protocols and
Ethernet-switch manufacturer-specific configurations may be required. This is beyond the scope of this
document. It is assumed that unmanaged switches are used in the networking examples discussed below.
Special requirements exist for CobraNet™ - compliant products using the DPCN input module. This is
addressed in Appendix A.
A Glossary of networking terminology used is provided at the end of this document.
AS-SHIPPED ETHERNET CONFIGURATION:
Each loudspeaker product is shipped from the JBL factory with the following configuration:
- DHCP is enabled. (See glossary for details)
- Auto IP address negotiation is enabled (See glossary for details)
- Auto HiQnet device setting is enabled. (See glossary for details)
- The default IP address for all products shipped is 169.5.17.1 with subnet mask 55.55.0.0
QUICK-START: CONFIGURING YOUR PC WITH SYSTEM ARCHITECT™ SOFTWARE:
1) Install System Architect software on the Microsoft Windows 000 or XP-equipped computer that will
control/monitor the HiQnet™ - compliant products.
) Note that System Architect will only display graphics correctly when the Windows PC display is set to
standard, small font size. If Windows is set to “large” fonts, then the displays within System Architect may
become unreadable. To correct this problem change Windows to the standard font size. (See Appendix B for
details)
) Note that System Architect will only display graphics correctly when the Windows PC. Regional and
Language settings are set to standard US English language. If Windows is set to any language other than
US English, objects in custom control panels will not display or function properly. To correct this problem
change Windows to the standard font size.
(See Appendix C for details)
) If you are using a CobraNet™ - compatible product see Appendix A for special instructions now before
proceeding further.
