Connect to the first amplifier via its RS485 input socket. To connect to further
amplifiers, just use standard microphone leads and daisy chain in to out. Note
that the RS485 Phoenix connector is wired in parallel with the RS485 XLRs, so
these may be used instead – come out of the first amplifier on the Phoenix and
simply parallel the three wires to the next device, and so on down the chain.
We recommend that you use screened cable for these connections and be sure to
ground one end of the screen.
There is no need to set ID numbers or worry about master/slave settings or baud
rates – the baud rate is preset and all amplifiers contain a serial number chip with
a unique ID which is used to set the comms ID.
ICORE searches for all connected devices automatically. Once connected and
all devices have been found, it will continuously monitor:
Output voltages and currents (for load monitoring)
Operating temperature
Active time and power cycles
Operating mode and limiter states
Protection condition
In addition to the real time monitoring and control, many properties of the
connected devices can be selected through the software. It is also used to
update the firmware in all connected devices and will issue warnings if the
firmware is not up to date. The next section deals with the basics of actually
getting ICORE running and how it all works.
