Page 11: Software Overview
4.1 LINE ARRA Y CALCULA TOR 3 LAC-3 is simulation software for designing and predicting the acoustical performance of JBL line array systems, such as the SRX900 Series, as well as flown and ground-stacked subwoofer arrays. Subwoofer delay values can be generated for electronic delay steering (EDS) using the built-in coverage calculator. -
Page 12: Srx900 Series

Page 15: Dsp Overview
7 - DSP OVERVIEW A full suite of user-configurable DSP driven by the SRX900 Series’ powerful onboard 400 MHz SHARC DSP includes 24 parametric EQs, up to two seconds of delay, signal generators, monitoring, and device presets. Additionally, the system features 48 kHz 24-bit process- ing, LevelMax limiting, and is compatible with JBL’s Performance Audio catalog of products. -
Page 16: Ac Power
8.1 AC VOL T AGE REQUIREMENTS The SRX900 Series amplifier module includes a universal power supply with Power Factor Correction (PFC), which can be used on any line voltage from 90 V to 250 V depending on the region, the type of wiring, and the power distribution panels available. When the line voltage goes above or below the set voltage limits, a protection circuit engages to protect the amplifier from damage. -

Chapter 17 - Specifications . 8.4 POWER ST A TES SRX900 Series speakers can be set to one of two power modes. See Section 15 - LCD for information on how to change between power modes via the rear LCD. -
Page 18: Audio Connectivity
User Manual 9 - AUDIO CONNECTIVITY SRX900 products are equipped with a balanced line level analog input for interfacing with external audio equipment such as mixing consoles. The balanced line input can accept signals of up to +21 dBu and has an input impedance of 100 kOhm. The male XLR output connector allows multiple loudspeakers to be connected together from a single output. -
Page 19: Example: Small System Audio Wiring
User Manual 9.2 EXAMPLE: SMALL SYSTEM AUDIO WIRING In this example, a small SRX900 system is fed from the left and right outputs of a mixer. The signal loops from the subwoofers to the mains. 9.3 EXAMPLE: LARGE SYSTEM AUDIO WIRING In this example, a large SRX900 system consisting of SRX910LA suspended mains and SRX928S subwoofers is fed from three separate signals: left and right sends for the mains and an auxiliary send for the subs. -
Page 20: 10- Networking
Each device must be assigned the same subnet mask and a unique IP address within the subnet mask’s range. IP address and subnet mask values can be entered from the rear LCD or from the NetSetter tool within JBL Performance control software. -
Page 21: Ethernet Ports
10.4 ETHERNET PORTS SRX900 Series amplifier modules are equipped with two fully switched network ports. These ports are used for all data communication between the amplifier module and the control device running JBL Performance control software. Because these two ports are fully switched, devices can be daisy chained together to simplify cabling. - Page 22 User Manual Star Network Topology Pros • Fast and reliable • Ideal for large installation where IT is involved • No single point of failure • Minimizes device-to-device switch hops Cons • Complex and expensive wiring • Requires external Ethernet equipment •...

HCIDs are used to give each device a numeric identifier up to six digits long. Each hardware device has a fixed HCID set at the factory that the user can modify, either on the device LCD (See Section 15 - LCD for more information) or in JBL Performance, using the integrated NetSetter tool. -
Page 24: Speaker Presets
12.1 LINE ARRA Y MODES SRX900 Series line arrays can be operated in one of three modes depending on the application and the number of speakers within an array. Operating modes are designed to create a neutral starting point and alter the tonal balance of the speakers to compensate for low frequency changes caused by array conditions. -

Each filter serves a specific intended purpose to accelerate the tuning process. Both filters can be applied quickly to all elements in an array from JBL Performance software, or to array elements one at a time from the LCD on the rear of the cabinets. For more information... -
Page 27: Array Calibration Filter Example
User Manual 13.3 ARRA Y CALIBRA TION FIL TER EXAMPLE The example below represents a typical use case for the Array Calibration tool set. The 12-Box SRX906LA array shown below has Array Size Compensation (ASC) subtracted globally from all elements of the array. The individual speakers within the array have additional Throw Distance Compensation applied to improve long-throw performance and remove some excess HF that may be present due to the distance from the array to the front audience members. -
Page 28: Subwoofers
User Manual 14 - SUBWOOFERS 14.1 CARDIOID SUBWOOFERS In some situations, the omnidirectional nature of subwoofers is desirable, but in others, directional coverage is required. The most common use case for directional subwoofers involves preventing excessive low frequency energy from reaching the stage. A single sub- woofer radiates omnidirectionally, but cardioid coverage can be achieved with an array of subwoofers in which the physical orientation of some cabinets is reversed and the Rear speaker mode selected. -
Page 29: Minimum Space Between Cardioid Stacks
User Manual 14.3 MINIMUM SPACE BETWEEN CARDIOID ST ACKS When creating subwoofer arrays using cardioid blocks of subwoofers, a distance of at least 1 meter (3.2 feet) should be allowed between stacks and high-mass structures, like a concrete wall or stage, to avoid disrupting rear radiation patterns. 14.4 SUBWOOFER RA TIOS The minimum recommended subwoofer ratios provide sufficient headroom for both the subwoofers and full-range cabinets to reach MAX SPL (limiters) at the same time, while maintaining a minimum of 10 dB sub to full-range low frequency contour. -
