Operation modes
This chapter provides comprehensive information on T-44/48 Series operation. The detailed
information included here is essential to realizing the full functionality of T-44/48 Series
amplifiers. The user can choose to control of T-44/48 Series amplifiers from the front panel or
remotely via System Engineer
®
control software, as they are interactive and communicate bi-
directionally.
4.1.1 Operation Precautions
Make sure that the Power switch on T-44/48 amplifier’s front panel is either OFF before
making any input or output connections.
Ensure no input signal is present when powering on the T-44/48 amplifier to reduce the
risk of any inadvertent bursts of high level audio.
4.1.2 Starting up the unit
When power switch is switched on the unit will go through its start-up cycle, checking all
the sub-systems as it does so. Along the way, the screen will inform you of its progress. Once
this is complete the display will then show the Home screen indicating drive module
configurations.
4.1.3 Overviews of the Modules, Preset, and Snapshots
A
Drive Module
represents a loudspeaker subsystem (e.g. Sub and Composite), and
comprises one input channel and a number of output channels, associated with one-another by
routing. The size of the Drive module is determined by the number of outputs in it. The device
may contain up to four Modules.

Output 1
Output 2

A
Module Preset
is a collection of settings (parameters) for a Drive Module of a
particular size. The Preset contains a set of parameters for one input and a set of parameters
for each of the outputs in the module. When a Module Preset is recalled, it will automatically
change the routing between Input DSPs and Outputs, consuming a number of outputs
according to the size of the Drive Module.
Recalling a Module Preset thus always creates a
Drive Module with consecutive outputs.
