Setting up a Remote Amplifier System

A Remote Power Amplifier System is a computer-controlled audio system that consists of a single or multiple Remote
Power Amps and a single or multiple PCs with the IRIS-Net software. Communication is established via CAN Remote
Control Network. An UCC1 USB-CAN Converter (or e.g. a Netmax N8000 System Controller) serves as interface for
linking to the PC.

Setting Up A Remote Amplifier System using a UCC1 USB-CAN Converter

When creating / installing a Remote Power Amplifier System, please make sure to keep the following information in
mind:
1.

Address Setting

First, make sure to set the addresses of all Remote Power Amps with your network correctly (address selector
switch on the rear panel of the power amps). CAN-networks allow addresses between 01 and 250. Set addresses
and settings in the corresponding IRIS-Net project have to match.
Caution!
! Assign each address only once within a specific system. Network conflicts will result otherwise.
Consequences
The default factory-settings for all Remote Power Amplifiers are:
Parameter
Address
Data transfer rate
Preset
2.

Connecting An UCC1 USB-CAN Converter To The PC

Connect the UCC1 USB-CAN Converter to an USB port on your PC. The STATUS LED has to light as soon as the
operating system recognizes the UCC1 (IRIS-Net has not yet been started). As soon as the IRIS-Net Software has
been started, the STATUS LED should blink indicating that the communication between the IRIS-Net application
and the UCC1 has been established.
Caution!
Make sure to install all necessary drivers before using the UCC1. Advice on how to install the
!
drivers is provided in the Readme-File, chapter "Installation".
Consequences
3. Network Connection Establish remote network connections (CAN-Bus) between UCC1 and all Remote Power
Amps. Make sure to keep the CAN-Bus cable specifications in mind.
4. Initial Operation Make sure that no signal is present at the inputs of the remote power amps when switching their
power on for the first time. Otherwise, since the power amps are set to full-range operation (F01), high output
levels can result in severe damage to the connected speaker systems. To configure the Remote Power Amplifier
System according to your requirements, start the IRIS-Net Software and open the corresponding project-file.
Please also bear in mind the following chapters, which lay out the procedures when creating and editing IRIS-Net
projects.
