The User has the possibility to connect the device via USB or RS485 or TCP/IP
* If the USB is selected, the User must set the number of the COM used to connect the device
By the way, using the button “Check the Sw will scan the Pc ports looking for the potentially
connected ones: set on the Com Select window the found Com ports until found the working one.
In order to use the USB connection for remotely controlling the LPP260A, need first set on the unit
the communication interface as USB.
To set the USB interface on the LPP260A the following steps have to be done:
1. press the “PM3/UTILITY button on the front panel, for entering the “UTILITY MENU
2. use the “PM1/ENTER encoder for selecting the “Interface Utility field
3. press the “PM1/ENTER button, for entering the “Interface Setup field
4. use the “PM2/ESC encoder, for selecting the USB interface
5. after operated the selection, press the “PM2/ESC button the necessary times for moving back
on the several fields up to the default screen, showing “LPP260A and the current loaded
preset
* If the RS485 is selected, the User must set the number of the COM used to connect the device and
the ID number set on the device. When the RS485 is used and the User want connect several devices
then if important that all device have an unique ID otherwise some device can not working
Use the button “Check to see all COM connected on the PC.
In order to use the RS485 connection for remotely controlling the LPP260A, need first set on the unit
the communication interface as RS485 and assign an ID to the unit.
To set the RS485 interface on the LPP260A the following steps have to be done:
1. press the “PM3/UTILITY button on the front panel, for entering the “UTILITY MENU

6. if set the DHCP mode OFF, press the “PM1/ENTER button fo entering the field for the IP
address assignment
7. after operated the selection, press the “PM2/ESC button the necessary times for moving back
on the several fields up to the default screen, showing “LPP260A and the current loaded
preset
Once decided the Interfacing Connection and set the necessary parameters there where required,
from the all USB. RS485 and TCP/IP windows, press the button “OK and the system will start to check
the device(s).
When found the connected device(s) the Sw will show a list of the devices found (if no device are
found then is possible to continue in demo mode “Off-line ) on the window “Device List .
If no devices found, the Sw will ask if the user want to continue in demo mode for evaluating the
available process of the LPP260A.
to edit the device, double click on the name of the device present on the “List ID
EDITI G Windows
on the Edit window is possible edit all parameters of the Input and output Output channel, save and
load configuration on the sw PC, copy the input channel to another input channel, insert and change a
User password in order to lock/unlock the interface, link the channel and see the current version of
the firmware and software.
On the ALL Editing Windows, the Top Bar is fixed and shows ever the several available “tools'' useful
for the User to manage the Editing Job so as to save it on Pc or within the unit.
TOOL BAR
Load: Load a previously saved Full Configuration from a defined Pc directory. The configuration
loaded will be the one edited with its parameters set on the several editing windows. The
configuration loaded is containing the ALL parameters set in the several Editing Windows
Save: Save the current Full Configuration (the all parameters set within the all Editing Windows) into a
defined Pc directory. The saved configuration is containing the ALL parameters set in the several
Editing Windows
Store: Save the current Full Configuration (the all parameters set within the all Editing Windows) into
one of 16 available locations within the LPP260A. The saved configuration is containing the ALL
parameters set in the several Editing Windows and can be recalled also from the unit's front panel.
Recall: Load a previously saved Full Configuration from one of 16 available locations within the
LPP260A. The configuration loaded will be the one edited with its parameters set on the several
editing windows.
Copy (located after Recall): tool for copying the all parameters of one input channel to an other one.
The Phase Correction FIR, available on each Input Path, are not included in this copy tool.
Copy (located before Default): tool for copying the all parameters of one output channel to an other
one. The Xover FIR, available on each output Path, are included in this copy tool. The Routing
available on each couple of outputs (1/2, 3/4) is not included in the copy tool.
Default: tool which can be used to bring back the LPP260A to the default setup, which is matching the
one got by the Hw reset. All parameters are flatted and the all outputs are in MUTE
User (password selection): by default (when released by the factory) the password for locking
permanently the LPP260A is set as “000000 . Using the USER tool, the user can define is own
password of six characters. Just providing at the very beginning the password “000000 . a windows is
entered allowing the user to assign a new password and confirm it.
Lock: momentary lock of the units' controls. When set, the all parameters cannot be accessed by the
user, but no password is required for setting/resetting the lock itself. Used for avoiding to accidentally
modify a setting during a live performance or if the user need to leave the editing session
momentarily.
Password: this tool is allowing to LOCK the LPP260A by Password. When the unit is locked providing a
Password, no control is accessible and to exit this status it is necessary to provide again the password
allowing so to UNLOCK the unit.
Link Input: this powerful tool is giving to the user the possibility, checking the related boxes, to LINK
together 2 or more input channels. When two or more input channels, with their own particular
setting of parameters, are linked, from the link moment ahead the all parameters set to one of the
linked channel will be set in the same way also on the other linked channels. The link function is not
affecting the status of the parameters of the linked channels, preceding the Link action.
Link Output: as for the inputs, this tool is giving to the user the possibility, checking the related boxes,
to LINK together 2 or more output channels. When two or more output channels, with their own
particular setting of parameters, are linked, from the link moment ahead the all parameters set to one
of the linked channel will be set in the same way also on the other linked channels. The link function is
not affecting the status of the parameters of the linked channels, preceding the Link action.
R: button allowing to access the ROUTING Main Editing Page
G: button allowing to access the GAINS Main Editing Page
A/B: buttons allowing to access the INPUT CHANNELS Editing Pages
1/2/3/4/5/6: buttons allowing to access the OUTPUT CHANNELS Editing Pages
i: info button, giving information about the Firmware and Pc Sw version.
ROUTI G WI DOW
This Window is guesting a synoptic image of the several processes available on the Input and Output
paths of the LPP260A, so as a series of “frames for the selection of Input sources and Signal Routings.
Input Source frame: The Signal Sources to the LPP260A inputs can be selected in between several
options, in alternative to each others.
- Analog Input is selecting as Inputs for the LPP260A, the ANLOG INPUT coming from the XLR
Balanced connectors on the unit's back panel. The max accepted input level for the Analog Inputs is
+20dBu.
- Digital Input is selecting as Inputs for the LPP260A, the DIGITAL INPUT coming from the XLR
connectors CHA and CHB on the unit's back panel. In order to select the Digital Inputs, need the inner
button located in between the ChC Input and CH1 Output to be pressed.
- oise Generator is selecting as Inputs for the LPP260A, the White or Pink Noise generated internally
by the Unit and controlled in Level by the related Slider ranging from -40dBu up to 0dBu.
