  • Page 12: General Information

    GENERAL INFORMATION Thank you for having chosen a PROEL product. QC series is based on PROEL DA amplifiers, a new generation of digitally controlled Class D power modules with Switch Mode Power Supply (SMPS) featuring an innovative technology. Unlike most of the competitors in this range, which use a fixed switching frequency, the PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) output stage of DA modules uses a variable switching frequency according to the input signal level.
  • Page 13 10. Channel SIGNAL/LIMIT Indicator This LED glows in GREEN color to show the presence of the signal at the correspondent amplifier channel. This LED glows in RED color when the DSP is limiting the channel’s output or when the channel input is clipping. NOTE: in case of input clipping you have to reduce the input signal in the signal chain before the amplifier input.
  • Page 14: Pronet

    “easy-to-use” tool to setup and manage your audio system. With PRONET you can visualize signal levels, monitor internal status and edit all the parameters of each connected device. Download the PRONET app from the AXIOM website at http://www.axiomproaudio.com/ clicking on downloads section of the product.
  • Page 15: Qc Setup Instructions

    1. Switch off all the devices. 2. Connect them correctly with the network cables. 3. “TERMINATE” the last device in the network connection. 4. Switch on the first device keeping pressed at least for 5 seconds the “ID” or “PRESET” button on the control panel.
  • Page 16: Dsp Features In Brief

    DSP Features in brief In the BLOCK DIAGRAMS below you can see the CORE DSP processing paths. NOTE: the DSP INPUT section is always fully editable by the user, but the OUTPUT section can have restrictions for FACTORY or PROTECTED presets. In those presets some parameters can’t be edited or viewed. For STEREO and PARALLEL configurations ganging option is available for input and output, to pair easily the sections of the CORE DSP processed channels.
