5.3 Monitoring and control

5.3.1 User interface

LED display allows real time monitoring of signals presence and level. LCD display offers quick visualization of the

system parameters. The front panel user interface features quick access functions for the 2 inputs and 4 outputs. The

encoder wheel gives fast and intuitive access to navigation and parameters selection.

Note: Please refer to [7] for detailed operating instructions

5.3.2 L-NET Remote Control Network

The proprietary L-NET network uses a high speed data transfer of 100 Mbit/sec for real time monitoring and control of

each individual LA controller within a network of up to 253 units. Multiple network topologies such as daisy-chain, star,

and hybrid are quickly and easily configurable with total flexibility in achieving the required system architecture. The

physical connection between the computer and the controllers is managed with CAT5e U/FTP cables (or higher

category) and the I/O Ethernet sockets located on the rear panel of the controller require industry standard RJ45

connectors. The use of a universal Ethernet switch is recommended for specific network topologies.

Note: Please refer to the LA NETWORK MANAGER User manual [3.4] for detailed operating instructions.

5.3.3 LA NETWORK MANAGER Software

L-ACOUSTICS

LA NETWORK MANAGER provides network control and monitoring of both LA4 and LA8

controllers from a computer running a Windows

operating system. The multiple window display gives an overall

visualization of the network status, number and groups of controllers, and all the information related to the control and

monitoring of the networked controllers.

Real-time access to all settings such as input mode, preset, mute/solo, gain, delay, polarity, and matrix can be

done using the remote software interface. A contour EQ system is also available for quick and easy loudspeaker

system frequency response setting, including the unique L-ACOUSTICS

Array Morphing tool dedicated to line

source array systems.

LA NETWORK MANAGER also features system stand-by and initialization control in addition to comprehensive visual

monitoring of the audio signal paths and quick detection of any faults on the amplified controllers connected to the

network.

Note: Please refer to the LA NETWORK MANAGER User manual [3.4] for detailed operating instructions.
