Speaker ID/Channel assignment
This parameter allows you to assign the speaker to a particular
Channel. If all speakers are on separate Channels, a PC can
control them independently. If two or more speakers share a
Channel, they constitute a “group” of speakers and can be
controlled simultaneously with a single command.
Input Level monitoring
This feature allows the user to monitor the input level to the
Integrated DSP Module in real-time. It is extremely useful
when calibrating two or more speakers so their input levels
match.

first turned on, it goes
through an initialization
process that lasts roughly
four seconds. The display

first turned on, it goes
through an initialization
process that lasts roughly
four seconds. The display
will remain blank until the
initialization process is
complete.
At startup, the speaker shows the letters
dSP
in the display.
After this, the version number of the software is shown
briefly. The speaker then goes into normal operation.
From this point on the ProLinear DSP will operate within
one of the following modes:
• Program mode allows you to select one of the
eight preset or eight user-defined programs. It has a
sub-mode where the Gain Trim is set.
• Channel mode gives you the ability to change the
speaker’s current Channel, or Speaker ID number.
• Edit mode is where all of the equalization curves
are created.
• Save mode allows you to save the new EQ settings
to a user-defined program.
• Input Level mode enables you to monitor the level
of the input signal.
A description of each of these modes is on the following
pages.

Warning: After you make an
edit to a Program, you must
save those changes to one of
the User Program locations.
If you change programs
before you do, the edits you
have made will be lost. For
information on how to save
an edited Program, see the
description of Save mode on
page 20.

When the ProLinear DSP is first powered up, it displays its
“top-level” screen: Program mode. From here you may select
one of the eight preset or eight user-defined programs. It is
also where you will find the Gain Trim parameter, which
is discussed on the next page.
When the speaker is in Program mode the word Program
will be lit on the LCD screen, along with the Bank
indicator (either Preset or User). The number in the display
indicates which Program is currently selected.
Program mode is the default mode for the ProLinear DSP.
The unit will return to this mode from any mode after 30
seconds of inactivity, with the exception of Input Level mode.
