LECTROSONICS, INC. 6 Installing the DM System into a Rack The DM1624F and DM1612F occupy two rack spaces. The DM812 occupies a single space. Mount with 4 rack screws using the appropriate mounting holes. It is rec- ommended to use nylon washers to prevent damage to the front panel’s finish when tightening the screws. Do not obstruct the fan port on the 2RU models. For North American installations, connect the Power Cable supplied with the unit between the DM and a stable power source. DM processors have internal switching power supplies that can tolerate voltages ranging�from�100�VAC�to�240�VAC.�Use�an�approved� power cable for installations outside North America. Cables It is recommented to use lacing bars for cable strain relief when mounting in a rack. Use only professional audio cable with proper shielding - typically, two con- ductor plus ground/shield. Audio Connections The analog audio inputs and outputs are connected through 5 pin de-pluggable connectors. Strip the insula- tion�back�1/8�to�3/16”�but�do�not�tin�(apply�solder�to)� the leads. Insert the wire into a de-pluggable connec- tor, leaving less than 1 mm of bare wire exposed, then tighten the retaining screw. 5-pin depluggable connector Do not leave more than 1 mm of exposed wire beyond the connector. Do not tin (apply solder to) leads Retaining Screw (Do not overtighten) Note the labeling on the DM Chassis for the positive and negative leads. Ground is shared between two connections (the center pin). For balanced connec- tions, all three leads can be connected. NOTE: The DM Series does not have a “pin 1 problem.” Audio Inputs Unbalanced Sources Unbalanced audio sources (positive and ground) include�items�such�as�consumer�VCR’s,�DVD�play- ers, etc., and may use both two wire and three wire cables. In either case, the positive output from the source should be connected to the appropriate positive (+)�input�on�the�DM.�The�shield�or�negative�(–)�output� should�be�connected�the�DM’s�negative�(–)�input.��Two� wire cables should have a jumper between the DM negative input and ground. Three wire cables should have the shield connected to the DM’s ground input and the�shield�and�negative�(–)�leads�joined�together�at�the� unbalanced source end. WARNING: Do not activate phantom power for unbalanced sources. Refer to online help files after the software is installed. Balanced Sources Balanced differential sources from external equipment and microphones should be wired according to Bal- anced source to DM input (3-Wire). (See illustration.) When connecting balanced sources to the DM, it is im- portant to not connect chassis ground (shield) to either signal conductor.

Rio Rancho, NM 7 Since�the�calculated�Vph�is�equal�to�Vph�from�the� microphone specification sheet, this is a marginal situ- ation. Microphone Number 2: � From�Specification�Sheet:��� Vph(min) = 9 V Imic(max.) = 2 mA Vph�=�15�V�-�(1k)(.002A) Vph�=�15�V�-�2V�=�13 V Since�the�calculated�Vph�is�greater�than�the�Vph�from� the microphone specification sheet, this is an accept- able situation. Audio Outputs All outputs are a balanced differential configuration. Some outputs include an attenuator to reduce the sig- nal to mic level. Use the outputs marked as MIC/LINE OUTPUTS for mic level applications. Using the other outputs marked LINE OUTPUTS with control panel at- tenuation can result in up to 40 dB of additional noise. NOTE: Using a Line Output with digital attenuation applied with the Control Panel to achieve Mic Level will result in added noise. When the DM output is connected to a balanced input, wire it as indicated in DM Out to Balanced Input (3- Wire). Select Mic or Line (as appropriate) either from the front panel LCD interface or via the software GUI. When the DM output is conencted to an unbalanced input, wire it as indicated in DM Out to Unbalanced Input (3-Wire), or DM Out to Unbalanced Input (2- WIre).

(See illustration below.) However, the true phantom power available at the microphone may be less due to voltage drop across the microphone itself (source resistance). In some cases, the voltage drop may be enough to result in marginal performance. The following formula can be used to determine how much phantom power will be available to a particular microphone. Vph�=�15�V�-�(1k)(Imic) Where: Vph = the actual voltage available at the microphone. (Microphone specifications list this as the mini- mum recommended phantom voltage value. To minimize�problems,�the�calculated�Vph�should� exceed this value.) Imic = the current draw of the microphone. (Refer to individual microphone specifications for this value.) Examples: Microphone Number 1; � From�Specification�Sheet:��� Vph(min) = 11 V Imic(typical) = 4 mA Vph�=�15�V�-�(1k)(.004A) Vph�=�15�V�-�4V�=�11 V +15V Phantom On/Off (from Micro Controller) Gain Control (from Micro Controller) 0, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50 dB RF Filter and AC Coupling 2 kohm 2 kohm To CODEC Pin 2 or 4 Pin 1 or 5 Pin 3 PGA + - + - + - Chassis GND Analog GND Programmable Gain Preamplifiers with Software Switchable Phantom Voltage +15 VDC 2k 2k To PGA Equivalent Circuit Phantom On/Off

LECTROSONICS, INC. 8 Programmable Inputs Programmable inputs are provided to enable external control over a variety of parameters. Each input can respond to either a contact closure or a continuous voltage. The following illustrates common connections to the programmable input pins. (See also Program- mable Inputs and Outputs Wiring Diagram.) 10K Linear Potentiometer CCW CW +5V To Programmable Input Pin Gnd Contact Closure as Programmable Input To Programmable Input Pin Gnd DC Voltage Source as Programmable Input To Programmable Input Pin 0VDC (Off) to +5VDC (On) Gnd Potentiometer Connection for Analog Control of Gain No external pull-up resistors are necessary because each programmable input is internally pulled up through a�100K�resistor�to�+5V.��When�using�a�continuous�volt- age with one of the programmable inputs, the function of the programmable input must be set to either Analog In Control or Analog Out Control on the Program- mable Inputs control tab in the Control Panel GUI. See the Programmable Input tab in the Control Panel software Help for setting all programmable input param- eters. Programmable Inputs and Outputs (DM1612F shown) Programmable Outputs Programmable outputs are used to indicate either channel activity or the current state of a programmable output. Each programmable output is the electrical equivalent of a contact closure to ground. When a programmable�output�is�“active”,�it�conducts�current�to� ground.��When�the�programmable�output�is�“inactive”,� no current flows to ground. The maximum usable volt- age�for�the�programmable�outputs�is�40�V�and�they�will� safely conduct up to 100 mA DC continuous. Following are some typical uses for the programmable outputs. Note: The diagram shows an external DC source powering the relay coil. This is necessary whenever�coil�voltages�exceed�5�V. Both�LEDs�and�5V�relay�coils�can�be�powered�by�the� +5�V�DC�pins�on�the�programmable�input�connector,�as� long as the maximum combined current for all LEDS and relay coils does not exceed 100 mA. Programmable Input/Outputs Connections Looking at the male connector on the rear panel of the processor, the pinouts are as follows: LED is on when the programmable output is active 380 Ohms Programmable Output Pin 380 Ohms LED is off when the programmable output is active Programmable Output Pin Gnd (from Programmable I/O Pins 1, 8, 13) 1N4001 or equiv.

These ports are only used to transfer digital audio information via the Digital Audio Network Interface (DANI) between the units. Expansion I/O Ports (DM1612F shown)

Rio Rancho, NM 9 figuring a unit as a Master or a Slave can be done using the front panel LCD and controls or the Control Panel GUI interface. Note: In order to use the convenient Control Panel GUI, LecNet2™ must be installed on the attached computer system. (See Installing LecNet2™ Software and USB Driver.) To connect the Master/Slave units, plug one end of a 12 inch Cat5e cable (two are supplied with each with unit) to the transmit (TX) port on the Master unit, and con- nect the other end to the corresponding receiver (RX) port on the Slave unit immediately below the Master. Repeat this procedure with the second Cat5e cable. (See Expansion Port Digital Audio Network Interface Interconnection Diagram.) CAUTION: Do not connect these ports to each other on a single unit, and to not cross the cables between the units. Master/Slave Configuration When stacking multiple units, one unit is always set as the Master and all subsequent units are set as Slaves. The LCD interface is used to do this.

Rio Rancho, NM 11 Installing LecNet2™ Software and USB Driver LecNet2™ is a Graphic User Interface (GUI) designed to allow easy setup and monitoring of DM compo- nents using Windows® 2000 or XP computer systems. LecNet2™ includes the necessary Control Panels to configure and monitor all the DM series products plus the�Venue�Modular�Receiver�system. Installing LecNet2™ Software 1. Use the computer system’s control panel to remove any previously installed versions of LecNet2™ software. (This will ensure you are using the latest release.) 2. Insert the LecNet2™ program disk supplied with your system into the computer system’s CD-ROM drive. 3. The CD should automatically start the installation procedure.��If�it�doesn’t,�click�“Start”�on�the�WIn- dows�Task�Bar�then�click�“Run...”��Enter�the�Drive� number�followed�by�“Setup.exe”�then�click�OK. 4. Follow the on-screen instructions to install the Lec- Net2 software. Installing the LecNet2™ USB Driver There are two methods of connecting a Windows®- based computer system to the DM component, either via a USB cable or an RS-232 cable. Although the USB port offers significantly increased speed and conve- nience over standard RS-232 links, it does require the installation of a LecNet2™ USB driver. The LecNet2 USB driver is not part of the standard Windows® 2000 and XP driver libraries. As a result, connecting a computer system to a DM system for the first time is different than subsequent installations. There are a few minor differences between installing the LecNet2 USB drivers on a Windows 2000 versus a Windows XP system. USB Driver Installation Windows XP When the DM is connected to a Windows XP computer system for the very first time, the Windows® “New Hard- ware�Found�Wizard”�automatically�opens. First Time Installation When a LecNet2™ device is connected to the PC for the very first time, the Windows Found New Hardware Wizard automatically opens. Use the following pro- cedure to install the LecNet2™ USB driver using the Wizard. 1. Place the LecNet2™ Installation Disk in the PC’s CD-ROM drive. 2. On the first page of the Wizard, select the option In- stall from a list or specific location (Advanced) and click Next> to continue. 3. Select “Search for the best driver in these loca- tions”, then check “Search removable media (floppy, CD-ROM...)” and click Next> to continue. 4. Windows searchs the CD for the driver and when it has found it, it is likely that a dialog will open warn- ing you that the driver has not passed Windows Logo Testing, click Continue Anyway.

LECTROSONICS, INC. 12 5. When the driver installation is complete, the final page of the Wizard appears. Click Finish to com- plete the LecNet2™ USB driver installation. Installation Additional Units (or LecNet 2™ Devices) The Windows XP operating system regards all Lec- net2™ devices as separate USB devices because each has a unique serial number. Because of this, Windows XP will want to install the USB driver every time it encounters a LecNet2™ device whose serial number it does not recognize. However, if the LecNet2™ USB driver has already been installed at least once before on the computer system, the process is simplified be- cause the LecNet2™ installation disk is not required. Use the following procedure if the LecNet2™ USB driver was previously installed on the computer system. 1. On the first page of the Wizard, select Install the software automatically (Recommended) and click Next> to continue. 2. Windows discovers the previously installed USB driver. It is likely that a dialog will open warning you that the driver has not passed Windows Logo Test- ing. Click Continue Anyway. 3. When the driver installation is complete, the final page of the Wizard appears. Click Finish. It is now possible to connect to the LecNet2™ device.

Rio Rancho, NM 13 USB Driver Installation (Windows 2000) First Time Installation When a LecNet2™ device is connected to a comptuer system running the Windows® 2000 operating system for the very first time, the Windows Found New Hard- ware Wizard automatically opens. Use the following procedure to install the LecNet2™ USB driver using the Wizard. 1. Connect a cable between the DM processor USB port and the computer system. Place the Lec- Net2™ Installation Disk in the computer system’s CD-ROM drive and click Next> to continue. 2. Select “Search for a suitable driver for my de- vice (recommended)” and click Next> to continue. 3. Check�“CD-ROM�drives”�then�click�Next> to search the LecNet2™ CD for the USB driver. 4. When it is found, the LecNet2™ device name will be displayed. Click Next> to install the driver. 5. When the driver installation is complete, the final page of the Wizard appears. Click Finish. It is now possible to connect to the LecNet2™ device.

LECTROSONICS, INC. 14 Initial Setup The initial setup of a DM system is a relatively simple three step process: connect the unit to the computer, turn on the computer and select the appropriate control panel, preset the input, matrix and output. This process assumes that LecNet2™ and, if necessary, the USB driver have been previously installed. If they have not been installed, please refer to Installing LecNet2™ Software and USB Driver. 1) Connect the computer system to the DM unit using either�the�BLACK�DB9�to�stereo�mini�(TRS�1/8”)� cable for RS-232 communications or the USB cable for USB control. (Both cables are included with the unit.) Note”�Only�one�DM�unit�at�a�time�can�be� connected to the computer system using the RS- 232 cable. Multiple units may be connected to the computer system using a USB hub. 2) Turn the computer system on. After the boot se- quence is complete, click Start, then All Programs. 3) Select LecNet2, then select the control panel from the list for the DM unit being set up. 4) If the “Just a Reminder” dialog appears, click OK to continue. 5) Click Connection on the Main Menu bar, then select the type of connection between the computer system or external control system and the DM unit. The choices are: USB - used when the computer is connected to the DM unit via the front or rear panel USB port. Network - One or more DM devices may be made available for network connections by connecting them to a gateway server acting as a middleman, receiving commands for a DM over a network connection, and forwarding them to the DM device connected via USB. Extron IPL T S - One or more DM devices may be made available for network connections by connecting them to an Extron IPL T S ethernet control interface. The IPL T S interface acts as a middleman, receiving commands for a DM device over a network connection, and forwarding them to the device via an RS232 port. To work as a gateway server the IPL T S interface must be a member of some local area network (LAN) or the Internet, by means of an Ethernet connection. Serial->COM1 - An RS-232 port for RS-232 communications between the DM and the computer sytsem, or for connecting the DM to an external control system such as those made by Crestron® or AMX®. Serial->COM2 - Same as above. Go Offline - No Connection Made, this mode can be used for off line configuration and is the default mode. Connect Menu

Rio Rancho, NM 15 Inputs Matrix Outputs The DM can be configured in the installation or a configuration file can be created off line in advance. The minimum required setup to pass audio includes: Inputs, Matrix and Outputs. Input and output filters, compressors and delays are used to tailor the system for specific audio situations. While these parameters can be set up through the front panel LCD and controls, the Control Panel GUI offers a much more robust and intuitive interface. Initial Setup Hints 1) The GUI interface is quite intuitive. As a recom- mended first step, we suggest you select Labels from the Menu Bar and type in all the input and output labels. This will simplify further setup steps because you will be able to easily keep track of which input or output you are adjusting. 2) The right click is powerful in this interface. You can activate quick access to a number of setup func- tions (for example - right click in any input box in the INPUTS tab ). It also allows some powerful cut and paste capabilities - especially in the matrix setup and the filter (both input and output). 3) Store startup settings in a startup default preset. (See Storing and Recalling Presets in the online HELP application.) 4) Presets will take about 4 seconds to switch due to the many parameters in the unit - audio will switch off temporarily during a preset switch to avoid feed- back. If you need quicker response with no inter- ruption to the audio, use macros instead - try using the macro recorder for making any changes. The only changes that cannot be made in a macro are filter adjustments. such as EQ. 5) Store presets after changes are made and not be- fore they are made. 6) Help is always available by clicking Help on the Main Menu Bar. This Help is a comprehensive resource and includes the latest revisions to the software and firmware. IMPORTANT: ANY CHANGES MADE DURING SETUP MUST BE SAVED IN THE UNIT VIA THE PRESET MENU. For direct support from the factory, call 1-800-821-1121 Ask for anyone in the SALES department. They will be able to answer your setup and/or technical questions or will get the correct person who can help on the phone.
