Page 11: Software Configuration
If you want to use the optional remote control, you need to use the Master - Slave configuration. The Point Zero can be used in a multi-device setting, for example a stereo setup. If you connect the two devices (using SPDIF) and want to be able to adjust the master volume on both devices, you must set one speaker as a master and the other as a slave. - Page 12 Main screen When a speaker is connected to computer with software installed, the main screen looks like in picture 1, will show the connected device information and the user can change its volume, source and preset. Device info There are a few more parameters with which you can use to personalize your module. To do so, click the “Device settings”...
- Page 13 • AES • SPDIF • Optical • Analogue XLR • Analogue RCA On slave devices the input option “Auto detect” is removed. As slaves are set to follow the same input as the controlling master device, “Auto detect” is not really needed. Master devices still have the “Auto detect”...
- Page 14 selected and audio is provided to the DSP. This will also indicate if you have set up the DSP with the correct gain. If the DSP has input and no output, that the system has low gain or even is muted. Use the ”VU” checkbox to toggle between level indication view and no level indication.
- Page 15 Extra slave options When you have configured the speaker to act as a slave device (see 'Options' in 'Device settings'), two extra settings become available on the main screen: The lock functions are especially added for slaves that are connected to a master by means of an S/PDIF cable.
- Page 16 This is useful when your slave's source is connected to an output which has its own level control. Source lock A slave can lock its source, so it will not change when the master's source is changed. For example, when the slave is connected to the master with an SPDIF cable, the master source can be switched to Optical, SPDIF or AES, whereas the slave source should always remain SPDIF.
- Page 17 Activate signal detection The Point Zero has two power-down modes: “Standby” and “Low power” (See 'Shut down power-mode'). When the device is in any power-down mode, it can wake-up by an analogue signal on the XLR or RCA input. If the device is in “Low-power” power-down mode, it can also wake up by detecting audio on any digital input.
