6.1 Digital Set-up

The diagram shows how to connect a 6.1 digital set-up.

All Master monitors require installed digital I/O cards.

AES signal is fed to input 2 of these cards.

The Centre monitor is set as the System Controller by leaving out the TC Link button on the rear panel.

The Centre monitor receives audio for both centre & LFE channels via the AES input connector (input 2). The LFE subwoofer is fed via the RJ-45 connection from the left monitor.

RJ45 Network connections from the Centre monitor to the Left & Right monitors are required.

The Left Monitor receives audio for both Left & LS channels via the AES input connector (input 2). The LS monitor is fed via the RJ-45 connection from the Left monitor. The CS monitor is fed via the RJ-45 connector from the LS monitor. Audio for the CS monitor is fed to input 2.

The Right Monitor receives audio for both Right & RS channels via the AES input connector (input 2). The RS monitor is fed via the RJ-45 connection from the Left monitor.

When no Bass management is selected, only the LFE signal will be sent to the subwoofer.

When Bass management is selected, low frequency content from the 5 main channels is extracted and sent to the subwoofer where it is summed with the LFE channel. (Only LF, Center, RF, LS, and RS contribute to the bass management signal.)

The iDPRemote, iDP SOFTor PC-iPcan be connected to any spare TC Link “out” connection.

! REMEMBER – To set a master monitor as the system controller the TC Link button on the rear panel MUST be in the out position.

The diagram shows how to connect a 6.1 digital set-up at 192khz.

All Master monitors require installed digital I/O cards.

AES signal is fed to inputs 2&3 of these cards.

The Centre monitor is set as the System Controller by leaving out the TC Link button on the rear panel.

The Centre monitor receives audio for both centre & LFE channels

via the AES input connectors (input 2 for Centre & input 3 for Sub). The LFE subwoofer is fed via the RJ-45 connection from the left monitor.

RJ45 Network connections from the Centre monitor to the Left & Right monitors are required.

The Left Monitor receives audio for both Left & LS channels via the AES input connector (input 2 for Left & input 3 for LS).

The LS monitor is fed via the RJ-45 connection from the Left monitor. The CS monitor is fed via the RJ-45 connector from the LS monitor. Audio for the CS monitor is fed to input 2.

The Right Monitor receives audio for both Right & RS channels via the AES input connector (input 2 for Left & input 3 for RS).

The RS monitor is fed via the RJ-45 connection from the Left monitor.

Clock MUST be sent on the AES connection feeding the Centre/LFE channels (or on BNC). When no Bass management is selected, only the LFE signal will be sent to the subwoofer.

When Bass management is selected, low frequency content from the 5 main channels is extracted and sent to the subwoofer where it is summed with the LFE channel. (Only LF, Center, RF, LS, and RS contribute to the bass management signal.)

The iDPRemote, iDP SOFTor PC-iPcan be connected to any spare TC Link “out” connection.
