Maintenance; Safety Considerations - Genelec 8260A Operating Manual

• Connect cables carrying analog audio to the 7000 Series
analogue subwoofer first.
• Connect the subwoofer outputs to the analog inputs of the
SAM monitors.
• Connect the GLM Control Network to the monitors.
• Make a System Setup in GLM. It will consist of only
monitors as this is all the network can see, so suitable
Rapid Cabling Presets are "Stereo Pair (Analog)" and "5.0
Surround System (Analog)".
• Run AutoCal and review the results to check for large dips
at or above 85 Hz. Move the monitors and repeat AutoCal if
there is a problem.
• Press "Finish", then in the Main Page select "Menu | Store
Acoustic Settings to All Online Monitors" and close GLM.
• For each SAM monitor, turn it off, select "Stored" on the
back of each monitor to activate the internal Acoustic
Settings, and then turn it on again.
• To set the phase control on the subwoofer, connect the
Center channel output of the subwoofer to the monitor to be
used to align phase.
• Follow the instructions in the subwoofer user manual for
setting phase and level.

signed in accordance with international safety standards, to
ensure safe operation and to maintain the monitor under safe

from the AC mains service unless the mains power cord is
removed from the amplifier or the mains outlet.

sufficient cooling.
• Do not obstruct airflow around the monitors.
