Appendix G: Setting Up A PRO6 System
This chapter shows you how to set up a PRO6 Live Audio System to its default
configuration.
Note: If you want to set up the PRO6 Live Audio System using a configuration other
than the default, please contact Midas Technical Support for details.

Initial set-up procedure

Initial system set-up basically comprises:
• Unpacking and checking the equipment — see "Unpacking the equipment" on
page 49.
• Making up a rack — see "Making up a rack" on page 49.
• Connecting up the equipment — see "Wiring instructions" on page 49.
• Powering the equipment — see "Powering the PRO6 system" on page 51.
• Initial patching — refer to the XL8 Live Performance System Owner's Manual or
PRO6 Control Centre Quick Reference Guide for details. It is important to set up
the type of snakes connected in the system.
• Configuring the DL351 unit — see "Setting up the DL351 Modular I/O unit ID" on
page 39.

Unpacking the equipment

After carefully unpacking the equipment, check it against the packing list shown in
"System components (standard supply)" on page 40"System components (standard
supply)" on page 26.
Save all packing materials, as they will prove useful should it become necessary to
transport the equipment later.
Inspect the equipment carefully for any sign of damage incurred during transportation.
It has undergone stringent quality control inspection and tests prior to packing and was
in perfect condition when it left the factory. However, if the equipment shows any signs
of damage, notify the transportation company without delay. Only you, the consignee,
may institute a claim against the carrier for damage during transportation.

Making up a rack

In the standard supply, the rack supplied with the PRO6 Live Audio System is fully fitted
with the DL351 Modular I/O and DL371 Audio System Engine units.

Wiring instructions

Connect the snake (Cat 5e or fibre optic) to the DL371 Audio System Engine unit and
PRO6 Control Centre (see Figure 2 "Standard system configuration" on page 50).
The DL351 Modular I/O and DL371 Audio System Engine units should already be
connected together when you receive them.
