Zeck Audio CCR24, Быстрая настройка

Страница: 3 / 5

The CCR 24 EQ-CARD is a stereo plug-in module for
the Zeck CCR 24 2/3-way stereo crossover unit.
The circuit design allows very low price, small size
and comfortabel use. High-perf o rmance operational
amplifiers and low-noise cicuitry design reward
the user with superior audio quality.
The unit allows to set 4 bell filters per channel, two
for boosting (bandpass) and two for cutting
(notch).
Mid-band frequency, Q-factor and filter gain are
freely selectable to get exact equalization of the
connected speaker system.
The card is electronically located in the CCR 24
before the crossover networks, so that the bell
filters receive the full-range input signal. This way,
the excellent phase behavior of the CCR 24 is in no
way influenced by the EQ card.
Configuring the EQ card is extremely simple as the
few user-installed components are all non-soldering.
For most comfortable dimensioning, the unit is
delivered with the ccrfilt software and a pre-pro-
grammed Microsoft Excel spreadsheet, which both
allow easiest calculation of the component values
with the help of a PC or a MAC computer, inclu-
ding a graphic response curve display.
1) Dimensioning
a) using the Zeck ccrfilt softwar e
• The ccrfilt sofware requires a 386 or higher pro-
cessor and Microsoft Windows 95 or higher opera-
ting system
• Install the program by starting setup.exe from
the installation disk
• Each of the CCR 24 EQ filters has an individual
amplitude-plot window and individual re g i s t e r
card in the configurataion window
• Enter the disired frequency, Q-factor and filter
gain to obtain immediate visualizeation of the
single filter response curves and the summation
curve
• Select a capacitor value and care for resistor
values between 47 ohms and 1 megohm
• Use E12 or E24 button for normalized resistor values
• MLSSA or TEF TDS files can be imported to obtain
calculated overall speaker system re s p o n s e
• Results can be saved as a *.ccr file or printed with
any Windos system printer
b) using the ccrfilt.xls Excel spreadsheet
• The ccrfilt.xls spreadsheet requires Microsoft
Excel Version 5.0 or higher
• Open the ccrfilt.xls file from the installation disk
• Enter the desired filter data and choose capacitor
value to get resistor values
• Alternatively, enter resistor and capacitor values
to obtain filter data
• Only bandpass (boost) filter curves are plotted.
Notch (cut) filters behave exactly vertical-mirrored.
c) calculation by formula
• Select a suitable Gain/Q-factor combination from
the the table overleaf
• All noted resistor values are based on 1000Hz
center frequency and 22nF capacitors. To get the
desired frequency, use formula (I) for actual resitor
values or formula (II) for capacitor values.
• The formulas are valid for both bandpass and
notch filter type
2) Configuring the card
The EQ card is split up into a left channel and a
right channel section. The component numbers for
the left channel start with a „0“ (R0.. and C0..), the
right channel components with a „1“ (R2.. and
C1..).
C..1 and C..2 belong to filter #1, C..3 and C..4 to filter
#2 and so on. Filters #1 and #2 are bandpass
(boost) filters, filter #3 and #4 are notch (cut) filters.
For bypassing any filter, replace R..1, R..4 R..7 or R 10
(depending on the filter you want to disable) with
a jumper wire. All other sockets of the disabled fil-
ter must be empty.
Use 1/4 watt 1% metal film resistors and WIMA
MKS2 tye capacitors for best tolerance values and
for fitting into the sockets (4/10“ grid).
3) Installing the card
• Make sure that your CCR 24 unit is disconnected
from mains supply!
• Open the top cover for the CCR 24 by removing
the seven fixing screws.
• Place the CCR 24 before you with the front panel
fracing you.
• Locate the 12-pin connector on the left side. This
is where the EQ card will be installed.
• The upper 4 pins (8, 9, 10 and 11, counted from
top) may be jumpered, depending on the input
gain setting of the CCR 24. Remove all jumpers.
• Plug in the EQ card with the component side
facing left. The card`s prong must fit into its coun-
terhole on the CCR 24 main board.
• Close the top cover of the CCR 24 with the fixing
screws. This automatically also secures the EQ card.
• Successful installation of the EQ card is indicated
by the „EQ CARD“ LED on the CCR 24 front panel.
