number displayed in the Product Group windows and the module number displayed in
the EVC window and try to find two modules that both have this address. For example, if
the control panel is flashing, the EVC window displays 002, and the third Product Group
window shows S4, you would look for two speaker modules (932) with the same address
of “Group 4, Module 02, Right.” Remember that pairs of speaker modules must have the
same Group and Module ID address, but must be identified LEFT and RIGHT to avoid a
duplication.
Note: In Control Panels, “E” refers to Electronics switching modules and “S” refers to Speaker
switching modules.
• As each new group number appears in a Product Group window, the EVC window counts
up the number of modules in that group that can be recognized. Write down the highest
number reported in the EVC window and the Group number with it. For each group,
compare the reported module tally with a physical count of the modules. For example,
your system has four “E Group 0” modules, six “E Group 4” modules, and three pairs of
“S Group 4” modules. The top PG window displays “E0” as EVC scans up to 4 (good).
The second PG window displays “E4” as EVC scans up to 5 (bad). The third PG window
displays “S4” as EVC scans up to 3 (good). In this case you would look for a mis-ad-
dressed, unplugged, or faulty E4 module (Electronics Group 4).
• If the module count in a group does not match the number of modules you actually have,
look for disconnected or mis-addressed modules.
B) After the diagnostic routine, the Control Panel software version number will be displayed, and the Control
Panel will BEEP to indicate that it is ready for use.
At this point the Control Panel should display “– –” or numbers in the window of each valid Product Group.
If this exact sequence of events does not occur, there is a problem with the installation. Do not proceed with
connecting product to the system until the all installation problems have been resolved. If you need assis-
tance, call our Technical Service Department toll-free at 800/322-8346.
When the system is turned on each time hereafter, the selection last made, or a default system that has been
programmed will appear in the Product Group windows.
How Product Groups Appear on the Control Panel
Module addresses set during installation determine the order in which Product Groups appear on the Control
Panel. If the rules for addressing described in the Installation Manual are followed, the first (top) Product
Group should be Sources, with the next logical component Product Group in the signal path being the second
Product Group (e.g. amplifiers, or maybe preamp EQs or processors). Here are two examples of how Product
Groups might be configured on your Control Panel:

Notice that the Product Groups are in a logical order that represents the normal signal flow of the compo-
nents if they were “hard-wired.” Notice also that speaker Product Groups follow their related amplifier’s
Product Group. Your particular demonstration needs may not require that all Product Groups be used,
