To operate a DSA loudspeaker, pre-performances checks and adjustments should be made. In typical permanently installed applications, these checks would normally be one-time, set-up adjustments that may only need to be periodically verified. All of these steps require using DSAPilot.

1.Set the Power Management function as appropriate for your application.

2.Select each cluster in the DSAPilot design and verify the LED indicator illuminates on the corresponding physical cluster.

3.Verify that the LED indicator on each enclosure is at the top or bottom as shown in DSAPilot.

4.Adjust the input gain for each cluster for the desired nominal output level for the expected input signal levels.

5.Adjust the input EQ for each cluster for the desired voicing to accom- modate room acoustics, program content, or personal taste.

6.Adjust the input Limiting for each cluster to prevent higher than desired output SPLs.

Power is applied to DSA in one of three ways:

1.Always On: Connect the loudspeaker to a continuously powered AC mains supply. The loudspeaker is always ready for use. For this mode, disable the Power Management function.

2.Off/On: Connect the loudspeaker to an AC mains supply which is switched on and off between uses. The AC mains must be switched on for each use. For this mode, disable the Power Management function.

3.Standby/On: Connect the loudspeaker to a continuously powered AC mains supply. The loudspeaker will be ready when input signal is applied. For this mode, enable the Power Management function.

When powered up, the signal processing in each loudspeaker will be set to what it was for the previous use. The signal processing settings are retained by non-volatile memory in each loudspeaker. This memory will last indefinitely when connected to the AC mains. When disconnected from AC mains, a battery supplies power to this memory. The expected battery life without being connected to the AC mains is 10 years.
