Introduction The Digitally Steerable DSA Series Array s represents EA W’s latest innov ation in advanced, acoustic modeling and applied technology in designing loudspeakers . The DSA250 full-range and DSA23 0 voice-only or lo w frequency system are small format, column-type loudspeaker sy stems with a user-variable v ertical beamwidth.
Chapter 1 Safety 1.1 Safety Precautions The terms “ Caution, ” “ W arning, ” and “ Danger ” are used throughout this manual to alert the reader to important safety precautions. If y ou hav e any questions about any aspects of these precautions , contact your local dealer , distributor , or EA W .
1.2.1 GENERAL PRECA UTIONS 1. R ead and Follo w Instructions — Before installing and operating this loudspeaker , read and follow all instructions and safety precautions in this manual and on the loudspeaker .

Chapter 3 Quick Star t This section provides basic installation requirements . R efer to Chapter 5 for detailed instructions. Loudspeaker refers to either a DSA230 or DSA25 0. Cluster refers to any of the permissible arrangements of single or multiple DSA230s or DSA25 0s as defined in DSAPilot.
Over 2 ft / 0.6 m: 2-conductor shielded audio cable / supplied Phoenix Contact terminal block plugs Connect Audio A, A udio B (if used), and EIA-485 in parallel dais y-chain fashion between clusters .
2. Attach the W all Brackets to structure . Y ou must pro vide attachment hardware and ensure the attachment method and structure are capable of supporting the intended load. Position the W all Bracket weld nuts left or right to allo w clearance for later insertion of the R etainer Bolt.
Chapter 4 Description 4.1 Sy stem O verview DSA Series loudspeakers are variable directivity , self-po wered line arr ays. Each loudspeaker ’ s v ertical beamwidth is determined b y the settings of an internal DSP (digital signal processor) and pow er amplifier for each transducer .
4.1.4 ELECTRICAL BENEFITS Built in digital signal processing, pow er amplification, and protective limiting significantly reduces equipment costs, space , installation, and set-up adjustments. Cabling is limited to pro viding AC mains , line level audio, and computer control signals .
· Cat-5 Link Cable links adjacent loudspeakers. · Optional CobraNet ™ interface for digital distribution of audio and computer control via Ethernet · Provision for back up audio/computer communications using a redundant Ethernet network, when using CobraNet ™ .
4.4 Engineering Design The core acoustical design of the DSA Series dates back to the late 1930s in Harry Olson ’ s book, “ Acoustical Engineering ” . He show ed that, by using different signal delay s on the input to each transducer in a simple line array , the array ’ s main output lobe could be effectively “ steered ” .
The required signal processing, accomplished by DSP (digital signal processing), involv es parametric equalization, signal delay , frequency filtering, gain, and limiting. These parameters are individually adjusted by the DSAPilot for each transducer in each loudspeaker .
additional benefits in reduced installation costs and operation. The flexibility of the DSAPilot to automatically optimize the acoustical performance for multiple DSA Series loudspeakers in a single larger space further enhances their advantage o ver traditional solutions .
5.1.2 A UDIO SIGNAL CONNECTION CobraNet ™ : Skip to Section 5.2 if using CobraNet ™ for distribution of the audio and control signals. Audio A or Audio B: 2-conductor twisted pair , shielded, audio cable connected to supplied 3-pin Phoenix Contact T erminal Plug and to the line level audio signal source .
5.1.5 DAISY CHAINING COMPUTER AND A UDIO SIGNALS BET WEEN CL USTERS Any distance (within EIA -485 limitations) between clusters: 2-conductor shielded cable Audio A, A udio B, and EIA-485 Connect in pa.
5.2.3 ADDITIONAL EQUIPMENT Y OU MUST SUPPL Y FOR COBRANET ™ : · Loudspeaker interface: EA W CM-1 CobraNet ™ Interface Card (P/N 0005987) for each DSA Series loudspeaker · Audio/Computer interface: Converts signals to CobraNet ™ protocol · Ethernet switch or hub: For netw orking multiple loudspeakers ov er Ethernet 5.
5.3 A C Mains P ower C onnec tion This section details the requirements for the AC mains which is the A C pow er connection required by each DSA loudspeaker . 5.3.1 A C MAINS SUPPL Y CAUTION: R ead all cautionary notes concerning electrical po wer in Chapter 1.
The LED should then go off. See Section 6.1.2 for other LED indications. If it is desired to completely pow er off (de-energize) the l oudspeaker , a conveniently located A C mains disconnect must be supplied or the pow er cable must be unplugged from the loudspeaker or the AC mains supply .
5.5 Phy sical Installation This section details the phy sical requirements and methods for installing the loudspeaker . Specific mounting procedures detailed herein ma y require some variation depending on the particular situation. Ho wev er , the basic methodology is the same in all cases.
orientation and, when multiple loudspeakers are used, the correct location of each. For the DSA25 0, the Po wer End is the end with the HF subsy stem and Signal End is the end with the LF subsy stem. 5.5.3 MUL TIPLE L OUDSPEAKERS AND CL USTER CONFIGURA TIONS CAUTION: Only clusters included in DSAPilot ma y be used.
5.5.4 INST ALLA TION OPTIONS Normal Method: This method is for installing DSA loudspeakers flush-mounted to a vertical w all surface using the supplied brackets. The installation instructions herein apply to this installation method. Optional Normal Method: This method is for suspending DSA loudspeakers.
5.5.6 MOUNTING HEIGHT The acoustical reference point for the DSAPilot is the geometric center of the cluster , which is halfw ay between the top of the top enclosure to the bottom of the bottom enclosure . That means for a steering angle of 0 degrees “ on-axis ” is the ph ysical center of the cluster .
Critical Dimensions: 1. Spacing between the W all Brackets for a single loudspeaker must be within 0.1 in / 3 mm of the dimensions in Figure 5.5.7a. In order to lift a loudspeaker onto its wall brackets , spacing between the top wall bracket and ceiling, or other o verhead obstruction, must be 8.
5.5.8 ENCL OSURE BRACKET INST ALLA TION Insert each supplied Enclosure Bracket into its slot near each end of the enclosure , verifying the proper orientation of the enclosure . Insert a supplied 3/8-16 x 2 in Enclosure Bracket Bolt with its lock washer into each bracket bolt hole in the enclosure .
1 . Install at least one of the supplied 1/4-20 X 3 in R etainer Bolt with its lock washer through the side of either the top or bottom W all/Enclosure Bracket and snugly tighten.
5.6 Initial Set-Up 5.6.1 VERIFY LOUDSPEAKER ORIENT A TION AND POSITION Using the DSAPilot, and with communications established with the loudspeakers, click on each loudspeaker in DSAPilot. The LED in both the DSAPilot graphic and on the actual loudspeaker will illuminate .
Chapter 6 Operation The general operation of a DSA loudspeaker is similar to the operation of most loudspeakers. Initial s ystem set-up and o verall tuning adjustments detailed in this Chapter must be made using DSAPilot. For details about using DSAPilot functions refer to the DSAPilot Help File .
2. Input Clip: If this indication is enabled, random flashing sho ws that the audio input signal is clipping the A to D converters at the input. T o correct this condition, reduce the input signal lev el at the source . Because the input gain is after the A to D converters , the DSA input gain adjustment will hav e no effect on this condition.
6.2 Operational Check List T o operate a DSA loudspeaker , pre-performances checks and adjustments should be made . In typical permanently installed applications, these checks would normally be one-time , set-up adjustments that ma y only need to be periodically verified.
6.3.3 OPERA TION Operate DSA similarly to any other loudspeaker . This normally involv es setting the source levels to achiev e the desired output as well as applying external equalization or other signal processing to achieve certain desired results.
