Remove all packaging and make certain all the abovematerials are enclosed in the box. If not, IMMEDIATELYcall 1-800-821-1121 to report the missing componentsso we can get any needed replacements on their way toyou. Ask for anyone in sales or service.

Installing the hardware into the rackThe DM1624 and DM1612 occupy two rack spaces.The DM812 occupies a single space. There are nospecial ventilation requirements. Mount with 4 rackscrews in the appropriate mounting holes – We recom-mend using nylon washers to prevent damage to thefinish when tightening the screws.

Power is connected via the included IEC power cable.DM processors have internal switching power suppliesthat can tolerate voltages from 100-240VAC. Use anapproved power cable for installations outside theUnited States.

CablingWe recommend using lacing bars for strain relief whenmounting in a rack. Use professional audio cable withproper shielding - two conductor plus ground/shield.

Audio connectionsThe analog audio inputs and outputs are connectedthrough 5 pin de-pluggable connectors. Strip the

insulation back only 1/8 to 3/16" and do not tin (applysolder to) the leads.

When tightening the connector do not over tighten anddo not leave more than 1mm of exposed wire beyondthe edge of the connector.

Note the labeling on the unit for the positive and nega-tive leads. Ground is shared between two connections(the center pin). For balanced connections, all threeleads can be connected.

The DM1624 does not have a “pin 1 problem”.

Unbalanced and balanced input connections use thefollowing guidelines.

Audio inputsUnbalanced sources (positive and ground) such asconsumer VCR’s, DVD players, etc. Positive to the +input. Shield or negative to – and a jumper to ground.

DO NOT ACTIVATE PHANTOM POWER FOR UNBALANCEDSOURCES !! REFER TO ONLINE HELP FILES AFTER THE

Balanced differential sources should be wired as follows.Do not connect chassis ground (shield) to either signalconductor.

Audio OutputsAll outputs are a balanced differential configuration.Some outputs include an attenuator to reduce the signalto mic level. Wiring is the same for either line or miclevel, as indicated in the following illustrations.

NOTE:USING A LINE OUTPUT WITH THE DIGITAL ATTENUATION

APPLIED WITH THE CONTROL PANEL TO ACHIEVE MICLEVEL WILL RESULT IN ADDED NOISE

Use the outputs marked as MIC/LINE OUTPUTS for miclevel applications. Using the other outputs marked LINEOUTPUTS with control panel attenuation can result inup to 40 dB off additional noise.

When the DM output is connected to a balanced input,wire it as indicated in this illustration.

Select Mic or Line either from the front panel LCDinterface or via the software GUI.

Programmable InputsProgrammable inputs are providedto enable control over a variety ofparameters. Each input can re-spond to either a contact closure ora continuous voltage. The diagrambelow shows common connectionsto the programmable input pins.

Each programmable input is inter-nally pulled up through a 100Kresistor to +5V, so no external pullup resistors are necessary. Whenusing a continuous voltage with oneof the programmable inputs, theFunction of the programmable inputmust be set to either Analog InControl or Analog Out Control on the ProgrammableInputs control tab in the GUI. See the ProgrammableInput tab in the Control Panel software for setting allprogrammable input parameters.

Programmable OutputsProgrammableoutputs are used toindicate eitherchannel activity orthe current state ofa programmableinput. Eachprogrammableoutput is theelectrical equiva-lent of a contactclosure to ground.When a program-mable output is“active”, it conductscurrent to ground.When the program-mable output is“inactive”, no current flows to ground. The maximumusable voltage for the programmable outputs is 40V, andthey will safely conduct up to 100mADC continuous.The diagram on the right shows some typical uses forthe programmable outputs.

It is permissible to run LEDs from the +5VDC pins onthe programmable input connector, as long as the totalLED current for all LEDS on does not exceed 100mA.Similarly, 5V relay coils may also be run from the+5VDC pins on the programmable input connector, aslong as the total coil current for all relays on does notexceed 100mA. Note that the diagram shows anexternal DC source powering the relay coil. This will benecessary if coil voltages above 5V are needed

Installing LecNet2™ Software and USB Driver

This Graphical User Interface (GUI) is designed to alloweasy setup and monitoring of DM components using acomputer system running under the Windows® 2000 orXP operating system.

Installing LecNet2™ Software1. Use the computer control panel to remove

any previously installed versions of LecNet2software. (This will ensure you are using thelatest release.)

2. Insert the LecNet2 program disk suppliedwith the Venue Receiver into the CD-ROMdrive on the computer system that will beused to set up and control the VenueReceiver.

3. The CD should automatically start theinstallation procedure. If it doesn't, click"Start" on the WIndows Task Bar then click"Run..." Enter the Drive number followed by"Setup.exe" as shown below.

4. Follow the on-screen instructions to install theLecNet2 software.

Installing the LecNet2™ USB DriverThere are two methods of connecting a WIndows®-based computer system to the DM component, eithervia a USB cable or an RS-232 cable. Although the USBport offers significantly increased speed and conve-nience over standard RS-232 links, it does require theinstallation of a LecNet2™ USB driver.

The LecNet2 USB driver is not part of the standardWindows® 2000 and XP driver libraries. As a result,connecting a computer system to the DM for the firsttime is different than subsequent installations. Thereare a few minor differences between installing theLecNet2 USB drivers on a Windows 2000 versus aWindows XP system.

USB driver installation Windows XP)When the DM is connected to a Windows XP computersystem for the very first time, the Windows® "NewHardware Found Wizard" automatically opens.

First time installationWhen a Lecnet2 device is connected to the PC for thevery first time, the Windows Found New HardwareWizard automatically opens. Use the following proce-dure to install the Lecnet2 USB driver using the Wizard.

1. Place the Lecnet2 Installation Disk in thePC’s CD-ROM drive.

2. On the first page of the Wizard, select theoption Install from a list or specificlocation (Advanced) and click Next> tocontinue to the next page.

3. Select "Search for the best driver in theselocations", then check the box for "Searchremovable media (floppy, CD-ROM...)" andclick Next> to continue to the next page..

4. Windows will search the CD for the driver andwhen it has found it, it is likely that a dialogwill open warning you that the driver has notpassed Windows Logo Testing. This is OK,click Continue Anyway.

(see top of next page)

5. When the driver installation is complete, thefinal page of the Wizard appears. Click

Finish to complete the Lecnet2 USB driverinstallation.

Installation additional units (or Lecnet 2 devices)The Windows XP operating system regards all Lecnet2devices as separate USB devices because each has aunique serial number. Because of this, Windows XP willwant to install the USB driver every time it encounters aLecnet 2 device whose serial number it does notrecognize. However, if the Lecnet 2 USB driver hasalready been installed at least once before on thecomputer system, the process is simplified because theLecnet 2 installation disk is not required. Use thefollowing procedure if the LecNet 2 USB driver waspreviously installed on the computer system.

1. On the first page of the Wizard, select Installthe software automatically (Recommended)and click Next> to continue.

2. Windows will discover the previously installeddriver and it is likely that a dialog will openwarning you that the driver has not passedWindows Logo Testing. Click ContinueAnyway.

3. When the driver installation is complete, thefinal page of the Wizard appears. Click

Finish. It is now possible to connect to theLecnet2 device.

USB Driver Installation (Windows 2000)

First Time InstallationWhen a Lecnet2 device is connected to the PC for thevery first time, the Windows Found New HardwareWizard automatically opens. Use the following proce-dure to install the Lecnet2 USB driver using the Wizard.

1. Connect a cable between the DM processorUSB port and the computer system. Placethe Lecnet2 Installation Disk in the PC’s CD-ROM drive and click "Next>" to display thenext page.

2. Select "Search for a suitable driver for mydevice (recommended)" and click "Next>" tocontinue to the next page.

3. Check only "CD-ROM drives" then clickNext> to search the LecNet 2 CD for the USBdriver. When it is found, the Lecnet 2 devicename will be displayed. Click Next> to installthe driver.

Initial Setup

Connect your computer using either the BLACK DB9 tostereo mini (TRS 1/8”) cable for RS-232 communica-tions OR the USB cable for USB control. Multiple unitsmay be connected using a USB hub (available at mostelectronic or office supply retailers). Both cables areincluded with the unit.

Select Start

Select LecNet2

Select DM1624 Control Panel

The control panel will start with a connection reminder

Click on OK.

Select CONNECT on the banner menu at the top of thecontrol panel screen.

Select the type of connection you are using. Yourchoices are COM ports (serial), Network, USB or ExtronIPL T S.

Upon connection you will be able to program and setupthe DM1624. See the help files in the software for morecomplete instructions.

HINT 1 - The GUI interface is quite intuitive. As arecommended first step, we suggest you select Labelsfrom the Menu Bar and type in all the input and outputlabels. This will simplify further setup steps becauseyou will be able to easily keep track of which input oroutput you are adjusting.

HINT 2 - The right click is powerful in this interface. Youcan activate quick access to a number of setup func-tions (for example - right click in any input box in theINPUTS tab ). It also allows some powerful cut andpaste capabilities - especially in the matrix setup andthe filter (both input and output).

Hint #3 - Presets will take about 4 seconds to switchdue to the many parameters in the unit - audio willswitch off temporarily during a preset switch to avoidfeedback. If you need quicker response with no inter-ruption to the audio, use macros instead - try using themacro recorder for making any changes. The onlychanges that cannot be made in a macro are filteradjustments such as EQ.

IMPORTANTThe minimum required setup is necessary before theDM processor will pass audio:

Inputs Setup - Matrix Setup - Outputs Setup

The minimum setup can also be accomplished using thefront panel LCD interface.

IMPORTANT - ANY CHANGES MADE DURING SETUP MUSTBE SAVED IN THE UNIT VIA THE PRESET MENU!!!

Click on Preset, then click on “STORE SETTINGS TODEVICE MEMORY AS... “, then select the preset whereyou you would like to store the settings you havecreated. You can also set that preset as the default, sowhen the unit powers up, it goes to that preset.

Do this after any changes (not before).
