Dynamic or static IP
With an Ethernet network, you can choose dynamic or
static IP:
With dynamic IP a DHCP Server allocates IP Addresses
▪
for all devices on the network. For up to about five
processors, we recommend dynamic IP. A Wi-Fi router
is a good option for small systems, as the router will
include a DHCP Server and you could connect your
computer to the router using Wi-Fi.
With static IP you need to specify the IP of each
▪
device manually. Static IP is particularly useful for large
systems with many processors.
To select dynamic or static IP, use the
app (page
6). You can't change this at the front panel
of the processor.
Setting up using the front panel
To set up your DX0.6 using the buttons and screen on the
front panel, you need to:
Configure the main settings using the Utility menu. For

Configure the output channels. For details, see

Connecting your system
For example system configurations, see
(page
30).
1. Before you connect your equipment, make sure that
everything is switched off and the master volume,
level or gain controls are all the way down.
2. Connect the line-level outputs from your mixing
console (or other signal source) to the inputs of your
DX0.6.
3. If you're using amplifiers, connect the outputs from
your DX0.6 to the inputs of your amplifiers. Connect
the outputs from your amplifiers to the inputs of your
passive loudspeakers.
If you're using powered loudspeakers, connect the
outputs from your DX0.6 to the inputs of your
speakers.
4. Turn on the mixing console (or other signal source).
5. Turn on your DX0.6.

6. Configure the system setup to match your
loudspeaker system. See
7. Un-mute the appropriate outputs on your DX0.6.
8. Turn on your amplifiers or powered loudspeakers.
Turn up the volume or gain control. In most
circumstances, you should turn the gain controls up
to maximum so that the amplifier gain matches the
limiter threshold levels of the the DX0.6.
9. Start the signal source and raise the mixer's main
L/R faders up until you can hear audio through the
loudspeakers.
Remember
When you shut down your equipment, turn off the
▪
amplifiers first. This is to prevent thumps and other
noises generated by upstream equipment from coming
out of the speakers.
When powering up your equipment, turn on the
▪
amplifiers last.
Don't listen to loud music for prolonged periods.
