[. . . ] RAVE 522aa 8x8 CobraNet Enabled Signal Processor Hardware Manual *TD-000164-00* TD-000164-00 rev. B IMPORTANT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS & EXPLANATION OF SYMBOLS The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated "dangerous" voltage within the product's enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock to humans. The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of important operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in this manual. SAFEGAURDS Electrical energy can perform many useful functions. This unit has been engineered and manufactured to assure your personal safety. [. . . ] Connect to an available COM port on your PC and communicate using a terminal control program such as Windows Hyperterminal. Use a normal serial data cable with a DB-9 male plug to connect to the RAVE 522aa. To connect the cable, orient the connector properly, then push into the receptacle until it is firmly seated; tighten the retaining screws "finger tight". Communications should be 9600 baud, no parity, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, and flow control Xon/Xoff. LED Indicators When the RAVE 522aa is plugged into a properly functioning AC outlet, it will power up and briefly display a welcome screen on the LCD display. POWER Indicator- This blue indicator illuminates when the RAVE 522aa is plugged into a properly functioning AC source. There is no power switch on the RAVE 522aa. This helps to prevent accidental system shutdowns. DIAGNOSTIC Indicator- This red indicator illuminates during the power-on self test, then should extinguish. If it remains illuminated, this indicates that the self-test has detected an unexpected event, such as corrupted firmware or a memory boot failure. If the DIAGNOSTIC LED remains illuminated, try resetting the RAVE 522aa by cycling power off and on once. Should the indication persist, contact QSC's Technical Services for guidance. During operation, any system fault will fully illuminate the indicator. During a "flash" update, the indicator will blink on and off; this is normal. Any error detected will be displayed on the LCD. For purpose of unit identification, the LED can be remotely turned on using QSControl. net software. (continued, next page) 15 LED Indicators (continued) QSControl and CobraNet Network Status (Port) Indicators- There are three LEDs on the front and rear panels labeled RX, TX and LINK. One group is for the QSControl network port and the other for the CobraNet network port. Note: Port indicators on rear panel are color coded to match the corresponding color-ring around the QSControl and CobraNet RJ45s. RX (receive)- This indicator illuminates any time the RAVE 522aa receives data from the corresponding network. TX (transmit)- This indicator illuminates whenever the RAVE 522aa transmits data onto the corresponding network. LINK STATUS- The corresponding indicator illuminates when the RAVE 522aa is connected to an operating network. LCD Display and Controls The RAVE 522aa has a 2 line X 16 character LCD display. The display and the multi-function push-button switches on either side provide data access and editing capability. The push-button switches on either side of the display are used to navigate through the menus. The rotary select/accept knob is active for many displayed items allowing you to scroll through choices by rotating the control, and accepting choices (entering) by pushing in on the control.
