Basic and Advanced Configuration Changes Using Bose ControlSpace
®
Software
Bose ControlSpace
®
V3.0 (or later) software provides complete setup, configuration, control, and monitoring for the PM8500 amplifier.
Refer to the ControlSpace software documentation for the steps to install this application on your personal computer (Windows XP,
Vista, or Windows 7). The installation of the ControlSpace software will install any USB drivers that may be required on your PC.
USB Connection with ControlSpace
®
Software
After ControlSpace software is loaded on your PC, launch the application and connect your PC to the front-panel USB connector on
the PM8500 amplifier. A single PM8500 amplifier may be connected to ControlSpace using the front panel USB port. Once connected,
you may use ControlSpace to setup, configure, change parameters, and monitor the performance of the connected PM8500 amplifier.
If more than one PM8500 amplifier is installed for your system, changes to each PM8500 using ControlSpace must be made one at a
time as the USB connection with the PM8500 is “one-to-one” and does not allow control of multiple PM8500 units from a single USB
connection.
PM8500N and Ethernet Connection
The PM8500N model allows ControlSpace software to be connected to multiple PM8500N units using standard Ethernet network
equipment and cables. The PM8500N allows a standard Ethernet RJ45 cable to be connected directly from the PC RJ45 Ethernet port
to the RJ45 connector on the rear panel of the amplifier (without the need for a special “crossover” cable that reverses pin connections
on each end). Multiple PM8500N units may be connected to standard Ethernet networking equipment and controlled from a single PC
running ControlSpace software. DCHP or static IP addressing are both supported with the PM8500N.
Each PM8500N ships from the factory with a default IP address of 192.168.0.80 and may be changed using ControlSpace soft-
ware. For additional information on using the network control and monitoring features of the PM8500N, please refer to the detailed
PowerMatch PM8500 Operation Manual and ControlSpace software User Guide (both available to download from pro.bose.com).
