RHAON & Beam steering Workflow
The ICLive X Series is controlled and beam steered with
RHAON II software. The following instructions assume an
understanding of RHAON II software and beam steering work
flows. If you are unfamiliar with RHAON II, the user manual is
accessible from the RHAON II Help menu.
Unlike other Iconyx models, which build arrays of master and
slave units, ICLive X arrays are all master, every loudspeaker
is addressed individually in the software. In order to control
and beam steer an array of multiple ICLive X loudspeakers,
they are grouped in RHAON II.
RHAON II offers two different group types, “Device Groups”
for group processing traditional point-source, line-array, and
subwoofer systems; and “Array Groups.” Array groups allow
controlling, steering, and monitoring an “ICLive X Array” as
a single entity. IC Live X arrays must be grouped in order to
beam steer them.
• To create an array group of ICLive X loudspeakers, first
identify and name the loudspeakers in each array. The
blue wink LED’s on the front of the loudspeaker can be
switched on in RHAON II to identify individual loud-
speakers.
See image 1.
• When naming individual loudspeakers in an array,
we recommend an alpha-numeric name, where the
numbers ascend in order from the bottom of the array
to the top; meaning the bottom most box should be
named XXX-1, the next one up would be XXX-2, and so
on. ICLive X array groups must be built from bottom to
the top in RHAON II.
See image 2.
• Once the individual loudspeakers in each array have
been identified and named build the ICLive X array
group.
1. Create an ICLive X Array Group in the Groups
Pane.
See image 2.
2. Starting with the bottom loudspeaker in the
array, add the individual loudspeakers from the
Devices Pane, to the new ICLive X Array Group.
See image 3.
3. If necessary, reorder the devices in the array to
match the physical array.
4. Name the ICLive X Array Group
5. Add the Array Group to the active Zone.
See
image 4.
6. Repeat for any additional arrays in the system.
