X3-SP User Manual

v1.0 May 2012

ACCESS LEVEL – Administrators can choose to lock all functions on the amplifier modules
by entering the relevant password – please contact EM Acoustics for further details on this
function.

VERSION INFO – by pressing the Edit encoder repeatedly, the unit will step through
user information such as software version, hardware version, IP address and MAC
address.

4.3.3 – EXIT Key

The exit key takes you one step back in the menu system from wherever you are for each
press of the key. For example, if you have just adjusted the input gain, pressing the exit
key will take you back to the parameter scroll screen.

4.3.4 - EDIT encoder function

The Edit encoder is the primary control for the user when operating the X3-SP and X3-
DFSP systems. From the opening display screen (which displays the unit name – which by
default is “X3-SP” or “X3-DFSP”, but can be changed by the user in the remote software –
on the top line and the loaded preset on the bottom line), simply rotating the encoder will
display the unit status in the following order:

INPUT GAIN=>INPUT DELAY=>INPUT SOURCE

Pressing the edit encoder will then allow the user to edit the selected function:

INPUT GAIN – adjustable by the user from 0dB down to -20dB. This control adjusts
both analog and digital input gains simultaneously.

INPUT DELAY – adjustable by the user from 0.0ms to 1000ms.

INPUT SOURCE – this selects either standard analog input, or AES/EBU digital input. If
digital is selected, the yellow “AES/EBU” LED will illuminate between the two XLR
connectors. There are four options – Analog, AES/EBU Left channel, AES/EBU Right
channel and AES/EBU mono sum.

4.4 – Remote Monitoring and Control

By connecting a cat5 Ethernet cable to the RJ45 port on the rear of the unit, remote
monitoring and control can be achieved through the optional remote software. Please see
the remote software manual for more details. The amber “Data” LED will illuminate
showing an active data connection.
