SPEAKER LINE INITIAL SETTING To perform Speaker Line Surveillance, be sure to make the initial settings for the VX-3000F as follows after connection completion of the VX-3000 system. 6.1. Setting Items [Initial impedance value setting] The VX-3000F determines whether the speaker line is open or shorted using this initial value as reference value (normal impedance value).

  • Page 96: Setting Procedures

    INSTALLATION AND SETTING PROCEDURES (HARDWARE) Chapter 3 6.3. Setting Procedures 6.3.1. Setting an initial impedance value Notes • When attenuators are connected to the speaker line, set their attenuation level to their maximum position. Otherwise, the initial impedance value cannot be set correctly. • Be sure to perform this setting after completion of connection work. • Be sure to reset the initial impedance value if any wiring or connection has been changed after completion of the setting. Step 1. Detach the front panel. Fixing screws for front panel Remove 4 fixing screws for front panel and detach the front panel.

Adjusting the speaker line's OPEN sensitivity Open sensitivity is expressed as the ratio to the initial value (defined as 100 %) and can be adjusted in the range of 101 % to 800 %. It is set to "200" for all the channels by default. Perform this setting using the VX-3000 Setting Software. Note Moving the setting closer to 101 % increases the OPEN sensitivity, and thus improves the accuracy of "OPEN"...
