WHERE DO I START?

For 215PCM Powered Core Module Users-

1-	Install the Signal Manager software on the PC that will be used to configure the 215PCMs processors. See page 20.
2-	Put the 215PCM in a location that:	• ....is close enough to the PC to connect the serial cable.
		•....has 120V, 30A service to power the 215PCM.
		•....has enough room to make connections or adjustments.
3-	Plug in the 215PCM. See page 11.
4-	Connect the serial cable from the PC’s COM port to the Top Box Processor. See page 12.
5-	Turn on the 215PCM.
6-	Open the Signal Manager software on the PC. Signal Manager should read the configuration data for the processor you are
	connected to and indicate ONLINE in its status window. If it does not, verify the correct COM port is selected using Signal
	Manager’s Settings/DSP pull-down menu. See the Troubleshooting page 29 of this manual for more help if your PC can’t
	communicate with your 215PCM’s Processor.
7-	Configure the Top Box Processor as required for your application. Apply the configuration and save it. Click the ONLINE/
	OFFLINE icon in the software; wait for the Status Indicator at the bottom of the Signal Manager window to indicate OFFLINE.
	It is now safe to move the RS-232 connection from one processor to the other.
8-	Move the RS-232 connection from the Top Box Processor to the Subwoofer Processor being sure to connect properly. Click
	the ONLINE/OFFLINE icon in the software. The Status Indicator will show ONLINE now. The configuration currently running in
	the Subwoofer Processor will be displayed. This will take a few moments.
9-	Configure the Subwoofer Processor as required by your application. Apply the configuration and save it. Click the ONLINE/
	OFFLINE icon in the software; once OFFLINE is indicated, disconnect your Processor.
10-	Set the MODE SWITCH in COMBINATION or DISCRETE MODE as required by the application. See page 13.
11-	Connect the Top Box Speakers to the Top Box Outputs. See page 18.
	•“Passive” Connection: Connect the two Top Box speakers to the two Output connectors
	•“Active/Biamp” Connection: If using a 4-wire biamp connection (Neutrik NL4) use only the top Speakon.
	Both channels are connected to the upper Speakon as noted next to the connector.
12-	Test your system and alter your processing if you need to.
