1. Introduction
Ray-On+ column loudspeakers ensure perfect speech intelligibility and optimal
acoustical comfort, even in noisy and reverberant venues. They are based on
the DGRC (Digital & Geometric Radiation Control) principle patented by Active
Audio.
Compared with a classic sound system in which each loudspeaker is controlled
independently, the DGRC method makes it possible to decrease the number of
channelstobecontrolled,therebyenhancingeconomicefciency.
Ray-On+ also allows the use of existing network cables and helps to achieve
signicantsavingsinwiring,withupto64channelsonasingleEthernetcable.
Ray-On+ combines the features of DanteTM and Ray-On to achieve ever higher
levelsofefciencyandexibility.
The Ray-On+ range includes 3 models of column loudspeakers, from 80cm to
2.30m high.

2. Positioning
The most important parameter for the installation of Ray-On+ loudspeaker is
its mounting height because the range of the column directly depends on it.
Installing the column higher will increase the range, but will affect SPL. On the
contrary, installing the column lower will increase SPL, but decreases its range.

4.4. Using the Ray-On+ Control software
The Ray-On+ control software gives access to the following functions:
• input selection: Dante, Analog or Dante/Analog fallback
• general output volume
• optimizedequalizationforspeechormusic
The Ray-On+ control software does not include
Dante routing functionality. When using Dante to
transmit audio, you will need the Dante Controller
software to assign Dante channels to Ray-On+ co-
lumns.
Dante Controller is available free of charge from the
Audinate website: https://www.audinate.com/pro-
ducts/software/dante-controller.
When launching the Ray-On+ control software, the rst screen lists all the
Ray-On+columnsit can ndonthenetwork.Therst connection toaRay-
