4.6 System setup and gain structure
This product offers a wide range of tools for sound system design and setup. These tools can make your
system more efficient and better sounding, but to get the best possible sound it is important to use these
tools properly. The following section explains how to maximize system gain and how to use the limiters to
protect your amplifiers from clipping.
In traditional system design, the output of your console would be routed to a system EQ, a compressor, and
a crossover with output level control. From the crossover, there may be additional filters that are employed to
improve the response of your speakers. There may also be limiters set up to keep your amplifiers from going
into clipping and protect your speakers from the hazards of a clipped signal. Your amplifiers play a vital role
in system setup, because they are the last item in the chain before your speakers and offer the greatest
amount of gain (that is their job after all). If your limiters and amplifiers are incorrectly setup you will not be
using your system to its fullest potential and could be harming your speakers.
To ensure an optimal gain structure: Play a signal at the nominal level from your mixing desk, and set the
input gain of your processor to 0. Set the crossovers that you want to use, while keeping the output gains
also at 0. With disconnected loudspeakers, turn up the volume of the power amplifiers entirely clockwise (full
volume).
Now reduce the output gain and / or the output limiter setting to get the desired gain, so that the amplifier is
just clipping and the built-in limiters of your processor are just limiting. If the amplifier does not have a built-in
clip limiter, set your processor's limiter so that the amplifier does not clip. Now turn down the volume of the
power amplifiers, connect your speakers, and slowly increase the volume while checking the sound.
If all is well, there should be distortion-free sound, and the limiter LEDs are flashing or off, but not
continuously on. If they are continuously on, reduce the output gain of your processor. If you cannot reach
enough signal level, increase the processor's input gain or turn up the level from your mixing desk.
4.7 Access levels
Four access levels with different rights are available for configuring the unit. The setting options available for
users depend on the access rights of the current access level. The levels are accessed by different
passwords. The passwords are entered at the amplifier (menu item Access Level: Unlocked section.
5.3.1) or via the control software DXO Control (menu item: Enter Password).
To be able to make all settings, change to the access level Development in the control software. This level
allows you to define the access rights and passwords for the other access levels.
When the unit is switched on, it will usually be in the access level User. When a password is entered, the
amplifier will be in the corresponding access level until it is switched off, a different password is entered or
the access level Locked State is selected. To enable the access level Locked State, either use the menu
item Access Level > Locked at the amplifier or the menu item Hardware > Lock Unit of the control
software.
The following table shows the access levels in descending order and the corresponding passwords.

Note
• These passwords are factory-set. We suggest changing the passwords via the software after the purchase.
Changes can be made in the respective access level or in a higher access level. Store your passwords in a
safe place!
