2 Safety Notes

The unit corresponds to all relevant directives of the EU and is therefore
marked with .
WARNING
The unit uses dangerous mains voltage . Leave ser-
vicing to skilled personnel .
Inexpert handling may result in electric shock .
• The unit is suitable for indoor use only . Protect it against dripping
water, splash water and high air humidity . The admissible ambient
temperature range is 0 – 40 °C .
• Do not place any vessels filled with liquid, e . g . drinking glasses,
on the unit .
• Do not operate the unit and immediately disconnect it from the
mains if
1 . the unit or the mains cable is visibly damaged,
2 . a defect might have occurred after the unit was dropped or suf-
fered a similar accident,
3 . malfunctions occur .
In any case the unit must be repaired by skilled personnel .
• Never pull the mains cable to disconnect the mains plug from the
mains socket, always seize the plug .
• For cleaning only use a dry, soft cloth; never use water or chemicals .
• No guarantee claims for the unit and no liability for any resulting
personal damage or material damage will be accepted if the unit
is used for other purposes than originally intended, if it is not cor-
rectly connected or operated, or if it is not repaired in an expert
way . Likewise, no liability will be accepted for data loss caused by
a defect or operating errors and for any consequential damage of
this data loss .
If the unit is to be put out of operation definitively, take it
to a local recycling plant for a disposal which is not harmful
to the environment .

3 Applications

The speaker management systems DSM-48LAN and DSM-48DT are
digital signal processors with four inputs and eight outputs; the DSM-
26LAN is equipped with two analog inputs, a digital 2-channel input
(AES/ EBU) and six outputs . The units provide a link between a mixer
and the power amplifiers of a PA system and combine the functions
of crossover networks, equalizers, delays, compressors and limiters .
Offering versatile configuration options, the units can be used in most
different speaker arrangements . The configurations can be saved at
the units and called up when required . The software provided allows
the units to be conveniently remote-controlled via a computer . The
computer is connected via the USB interface or via Ethernet .
The following settings can be made for each input channel:
– DSM-48... only: Signal source: analog input, alternative digital input
(additionally Dante signals with DSM-48DT) for two input channels
– Gain (–48 ... +12 dB)
– High pass filter (HPF) and low pass filter (LPF) with 10 filter
characteristics
– Parametric equalizer (PEQ) with 10 filters and 8 filter characteristics
– Signal delay, to be entered as time (ms) or distance (m / feet)
– Compressor
– Peak limiter
– Muting (only via the control program)
The following settings can be made for each output channel:
– Assignment to a single input signal or to the mixed signal of
multiple inputs
– Gain (−48 ... +12 dB)
– Muting
– Signal delay, to be entered as time (ms) or distance (m / feet)
– High pass filter (HPF) and low pass filter (LPF) with 10 filter char-
acteristics of different slopes, e . g . for creating crossover networks
– Parametric equalizer (PEQ) with 10 filters and 8 filter characteristics
– Compressor
– Peak limiter
– Phase reversal
