1. Address Setting First, make sure to set the addresses of all Remote Power Amps with your network correctly
(address selector switch on the rear panel of the power amps). CAN-networks allow addresses between 01 and
250. Set addresses and settings in the corresponding IRIS-Net project have to match.
Caution!
Assign each address only once within a specific system. Network conflicts will result otherwise.
Consequences
The default factory settings for all remote power amplifiers are:
Parameter Value
Address 00
Data transfer rate 10 kbit/s
Preset F01 (all filters bypassed / linear, level 0dB, muting off)
2. Connecting a N8000 System Controller to the PC Connect the N8000 System Controller to an Ethernet port on
your PC. Please see the N8000 owner‘s manual for details.
3. Network Connection Establish remote network connections (CAN-Bus) between the N8000 and all Remote Power
Amps. Make sure to keep the CAN-Bus cable specifications in mind.
4. Initial Operation Make sure that no signal is present at the inputs of the remote power amps when switching their
power on for the first time. Otherwise, since the power amps are set to full-range operation (F01), high output
levels can result in severe damage to the connected speaker systems. To configure the Remote Power Amplifier
System according to your requirements, start the IRIS-Net Software and open the corresponding project-file.
Please also bear in mind the following chapters, which lay out the procedures when creating and editing IRIS-Net
projects.
Set CAN baud rate
1. Changing Baud rate of P-Series Remote Amplifiers for changing the Baud Rate to 10 kBit/s, power-off the power
amp using its POWER-switch on the front panel. Disconnect the power amp from the CAN network, set its address
to 00 and power-on the power amp again. Power-off the power amp and readjust the address-switches to their
correct settings. Now you can reconnect the CAN network and use the power amp. This operation will reset the
baud rate as well as all DSP settings to the factory-shipped defaults (F01)! Other baud rates can be selected by
setting the address of the amplifier during the same procedure according to following table.
Address
Data transfer rate
00 10 kbit/s
Address Data transfer rate
FE 62,5 kbit/s
FD 125 kbit/s
FC 250 kbit/s
FB 500 kbit/s
Caution!
Make sure that all Remote Power Amps within one CAN network are always set to an identical
baud rate. Otherwise, if power amps within a particular network are set to different baud rates,
network communications is not possible!
