JBL Intellivox Installation Manual

4. UNIT CHECKS

After installation and connection are complete, the installer
should upload the settings file into the Intellivox and verify
correct operation with WinControl software.
This section of the manual describes only the file upload
and a simple verification procedure. It assumes that a
laptop (or other computer) with both WinControl software
and a driver for the RS-485 interface already installed is
available, with the RS-485 interface. It also assumes that
the installer has the settings files, prepared by the system
designer, for each Intellivox loudspeaker making up the
system. These may be elsewhere on the laptop's hard drive,
or may be supplied separately on removable media such as
a memory stick or a CD-ROM. No previous knowledge of
WinControl is necessary, but basic familiarity with Windows
file handling is required.
A full description of WinControl is beyond the scope of this
manual and further information is available in the
application's Help files. Instructions on how to install
WinControl on a PC are included with the Program Set.
Instructions on the use of the RS-485 interface are included
with the interface itself.

CONNECTING THE PC TO THE INTELLIVOX

If connecting directly to the Intellivox, use the 5-pin XLR to
WAGO cable (supplied with the WinControl Program Set)
and plug the WAGO connector into the loudspeaker's
network socket. Connect the other end to the RS-485
output socket on the RS-485 interface. If the network
connection to the Intellivox has been made permanent and
network access is consequently in a different physical
location, connect the PC at this point, using a different
(installation-specific) cable if necessary.
The RS-485 interface should then be connected to the
PC's USB port.
