Introduction

The SPL5 MK2 is a sound pressure limiter that stores sound pressure data for a minimum period

of 180 days. Other data, such as switching on, exceeding the maximum level and any (attempted)

sabotage are also registered.

This keeps managing and checking the equipment quick and clear!

With the special SRL-1 circuit breaker you can connect an external warning lamp and disconnect

the power supply, for example the DJ booth monitor. This way, sound can always be played at

the maximum permitted sound level, without affecting the sound quality.

Normally, users can only view settings and logs. To adjust the settings, an additional

password and a license file are required. To connect to the SPL-5 MK2 you need a

Windows computer with USB support. If the SPL-5 MK2 is connected to a local network or the

internet, it is possible to read the limiter remotely.

The special calendar functions allow you to allow different sound levels over the course of a day

and a year.

At the time of release, the device supports Windows 7 and newer.

In this way, the level always remains within the permissible limits.

The configuration software allows the SPL-5 MK2 to be read and adjusted.

The limiter uses a measuring microphone to determine the current sound pressure in the room.

When this level threatens to become too loud, the limiter will regulate the level slightly.

Connections

Installation

To prevent the connections from being changed after the limiter has been adjusted and sealed, the

limiter's connections are no longer accessible after sealing. To access the limiter connections,

remove the right (sealable) cover.

Before adjustment, the power amplifiers are set to maximum power. The limiter will attenuate the

signal as necessary. As soon as the limiter has been adjusted, the pre-set limit can in principle

no longer be exceeded. Should this happen, the signal will automatically be slightly weakened, so

that the total sound pressure remains within the preset standard.

The SPL5 MK2 is equipped with balanced inputs and outputs. This type of connection guarantees

good sound quality, even over longer distances. Once the device has been adjusted, a cover is

placed over the connections, so that making adjustments afterwards is no longer possible. When

the cover is removed, the SPL5 MK2 will register this. The limiter can then only be reactivated using

the key.

microphone input; XLR 3-pin female

Now loosen bolt (A) with a Torx screwdriver (see drawing). Now remove the 4 torx screws

(B) from the top cover. Now the lid can be removed. First lift the front slightly, then slide the cover

back. The connection plate of the limiter is now visible.

The limiter is installed between the sound source (for example, the mixing desk, the

preamplifier, etc.) and the amplifier. See figure 1.

Audio Inputs

Balanced inputs for the audio from the mixing console. If the mixing console only has

unbalanced outputs, pins 1 and 3 in the XLR connector must be used

External display; Jack 3 pin female

The microphone should be mounted in such a way that it can pick up both the sound from the

loudspeakers and the sound from the room. If the maximum permitted level is very low, the

microphone can be placed closer to the loudspeakers. This reduces the influence of ambient

noise.

Microphone input

Connect the supplied measuring microphone here. The connection cable of the microphone

can be extended with standard microphone cable. Pay attention to the polarity! If the

microphone is connected incorrectly, it will not work. The limiter will give an error message,

and the sound will come through strongly attenuated.

This can be useful, for example, to reduce the sound pressure behind the bar. It is also

possible to have the sound pressure decrease automatically when the terrace doors are

opened in the summer.

transferred. The signal from the mixing console can now be connected to pin 2, and the

ground to pin 1.

Audio outputs

Connect the power amplifiers here. If the power amplifiers do not have balanced inputs

then they can be connected between pin 2 (signal) and pin 1 (ground).

This input can be used to lower the maximum sound pressure using an external

potentiometer. By connecting a linear 10 kOhm potentiometer between pin 1 (wiper) and

pin 14, the maximum sound pressure can be temporarily reduced.

For longer cabling, it is recommended not to connect pin 1. In this case, only connect pins

2 and 3.

Live OK signalling

• Level OK indicates that the sound pressure is below the maximum, but approaching

the maximum allowable level (0...12dB room). • Safe

indicates that the sound pressure is more than 12dB below the maximum allowable

preset maximum.

This output indicates that the signal is being overdriven somewhere in the limiter. This

can be the audio input or the measuring microphone. This output has the same function as

the overload LED on the front of the device (Overload).

These indicators can be placed near the disc jockey or live band so they have an idea of

the sound level.

These outputs give an impression of the current sound pressure compared to the pre-set

maximum: • The

warning output becomes active as soon as the current sound pressure exceeds the

Warning signaling Level OK, Safe sound pressure

Overload signalling

An indication can be connected to this output that indicates that the limiter has

attenuated the sound pressure. This output has the same function as the reduction LED

on the front of the device (Audio reduction).

border is located.

This output is active as long as the device does not sanction. A solid-state relay can be

connected to this output, which switches off the power supply of the (live) stage. When

a live band exceeds the maximum set sound pressure, the limiter will go into sanction mode

and automatically switch off the power supply. After a predetermined time, the sanction

mode will end automatically.

External

Display This is the data connection to the optional SPL-D2 MKII, SPL-D3 or SPL-EXT3. The

external display can also be connected directly to the display port of the SPL5 MK2. A 6.3mm

Stereo Jack cable must be used for this.
