Connect the GLM Control Network to the main loudspeakers.

Make a System Setup in GLM. It will consist of main loudspeakers as this is all the network can see, so suitable Rapid Cabling Presets are “Stereo Pair (Analog)” and “5.0 Surround System (Analog)”.

Run AutoCal and review and the results to check for large dips at or above 85Hz. Move the loudspeakers and repeat AutoCal if there is a problem.

Press “Finish”, then in the Main Page select “Menu Store Acoustic Settings to All Online Loudspeakers” and close GLM.

For each DSP loudspeaker, turn it off, select “Stored” on the back of each loudspeaker to enable the internal Acoustic Settings, and then turn it on again.

To set the phase control on the subwoofer, connect the Center channel output of the subwoofer to the loudspeaker to be used to align phase.

Follow the instructions in the subwoofer user manual for setting phase and level.

Maintenance

No user serviceable parts are to be found within the loudspeaker enclosure. Any maintenance or repair of the loudspeaker should only be undertaken by qualified service personnel.

Safety considerations

Although the 8240A and 8250A have been designed in accordance with international safety standards, to ensure safe operation and to maintain the loudspeaker under safe operating conditions, the following warnings and precautions must be observed:

1. Servicing and adjustment must only be performed by qualified service personnel. The loudspeaker enclosure must not be opened.

2.Do not use this product with an unearthed mains cable or a mains connection without the protective earth contact as this may lead to personal injury.

3.To prevent fire or electric shock, do not expose the unit to water or moisture.

Do not place any objects filled with liquid, such as vases on the loudspeaker or near it.

4.Note that the amplifier is not completely disconnected from the AC mains service unless the mains power cord is removed from the amplifier or the mains outlet.

5.Free flow of air behind the loudspeaker is necessary to maintain sufficient cooling. Do not obstruct airflow around the loudspeakers.

WARNING!

Genelec 8240A and 8250A loudspeakers are capable of producing sound pressure levels in excess of 85 dB, which may cause permanent hearing damage.
