Network Connection:
When the Zone Revolution software is run for the fi rst
time a default connection page is launched. By clicking
File > Settings it is possible to make this page not
appear and have the software simply connect to the
last known good connection. This allows the installer to
have the software confi gured and connect automatically
as the PC starts up.
The initial connection page also allows the user to
update fi rmware and change the IP address within the
Zone Revolution hardware. This can all be done from
the Setup drop menu within the title bar.
All Zone Revolution units have a default IP address of
192.168.178.178.
Connection For the First Time:
It is suggested that when connecting to the
Zone Revolution for the fi rst time that a crossover cable
is used straight between the unit and your PC. You
will then need to change your network adapter to
have an IP of 192.168.178.170 with a subnet of
255.255.255.0. Then all you will need to do is open
the Zone Rev software and connect. Once you have
connected for the fi rst time you can set the units
IP address or change it to DHCP.
Zone Control Page:
The main page of the Zone Revolution software allows
the user to adjust all routing for a particular zone.
In terms of DSP the zone routing page is after the
input source processing but before the zone’s output
processing. All inputs within the Zone Revolution are
available on all outputs. This page gives the user
access to adjust basic functions such as volume,
panning and mute controls.

Page 7
Advanced Mode:
In the bottom right hand corner of the Zone Revolution
software there is an “Advanced” button. The features
allow the contractor to adjust DSP processing, min and
max volumes and other advanced features. This section
of the software can be password protected against
inappropriate access. To set a new password click
“Settings > Set Password”.
Out of the box the Zone Revolution does not have a
password set. A password can be added by simply
typing it into the new password box and a pop up will
inform you that the change was successful. To remove
a password simply type in the “Old password” and
then leave the new password box blank, a prompt
should appear telling you that the password has been
removed.
Advanced Mode Set Up:
At the base of the advanced mode screen, there are
four buttons added to the GUI. These allow set up of
functions relating to the Audio Setup, Control Panels,
Master Override and Presets.
Audio Setup
The Audio Setup page allows the user to control all DSP
functions of each input and output signal. The page
also allows the user to see the signal fl ow from input
to output. Within this screen there are small signal
indicators for each input and output. This page makes a
great trouble shooting guide to see signal entering and
leaving the DSP functions.

ZONE REVOLUTION QUICKSTART MANUAL
ADVANCED SETTINGS/AUDIO SETUP
Page 8
Inputs
Each Mic/Line input can be confi gured as either
Microphone level or Line level. The user has options
such as polarity, analog gain sensitivity and digital trim.
Each Mic/Line input also supports full +48V phantom
power.
The Analog gain steps are gain adjustments in the
Analog domain where as the fader represents control
of the DSP domain.
The stereo inputs follow most of the same functions
that relate to line level inputs on the mic/line input.
The page inputs provide a single digital trim fader,
phase invert and mute buttons. Paging Input 1 also
provides a priority enable feature than when enabled
provides priority paging to this input.
Input EQ
Each input has comprehensive EQ functions: high and low
pass fi lters, high and low shelf and two parametric fi lters.
Each EQ can be adjusted in either Q or BW. All processing
is represented on the EQ frequency response graph on the
right hand side of that window.
You can save processing preset fi les for each block from
the EQ onwards. This allows a user to have some preset
EQ fi les such as “Gooseneck Microphone” or “Lapel EQ”.
Dynamics
The dynamics page allows the user to adjust a Noise
Gate for each input and also a Compressor or AGC
for each input. Every block that contains two or more
processing options has an overall “bypass” in red and a
per function “bypass” in blue.

EQ/Crossover
The EQ/Crossover block allows you to set up a
crossover and apply equalisation to each output.
All stereo functions have a stereo link button. This will
copy all functions from the left to the right in stereo
applications.
Crossover
The crossover section of each output allows the
user to set up a high pass, low pass and all pass
fi lter. Each high and low pass fi lter can be either
Butterworth, Linkwitz Riley or Bessel and can have
slopes up to 48dB per octave.
EQ
Each output also offers comprehensive EQ
functions. These allow a user to confi gure a
low and high shelf and 4 parametric fi lters.
Limiter
Each output features a fully optioned limiter with
stereo link function on stereo zones.
Delay
Each output has a delay for both the left and the right
channel. It has coarse and also fi ne control for setting
in precise delays. The user can also simply type in the
required distance or time. At the bottom of the delay
section a user can also adjust temperature for even
more precise adjustment of delays and also switch the
measurements between metric and imperial.

ICON-CP Control Panels:
The control panel screen allows the user to set up all
control panels connected to their system. Each remote
panel can be renamed for easy identifi cation.
Once a name is given to a panel the user can specify
its type; options are 6 Volume, 6 buttons + volume
or 8 buttons.
Panel Set Up:
From the “Confi gure” screen the user can set up the
zone to be controlled and what parameter the control
panel affects.

Global Presets:
The presets window allows the user to defi ne up to 8
global presets. From this page you can recall presets
for set up and also store current system information to
a specifi c preset.
Master Override:
The master override screen allows a user to set up all
aspects of the master override. This would be typically
used for closure. The trigger source can be either signal
presence or closed contact.
Once a trigger source has been selected you
can confi gure the Master Override to “Mute all
Inputs”,“Route Mic/Line 4 to all” and/or “Enable
Paging”. Any combination of these settings is permitted.
When “Route Mic/Line 4 to all” is selected, the controls
for that channel disappear from the front page so the
end user is unable to adjust the settings.

The Revolution series control panels (ICON-CP) have two banks of DIP switches
on the rear of the control panel. The fi rst bank of switches labeled SW1 allows
the user to address the panel for RS485 communications. The second bank of
switches allows the user to set up the LED functions for the remote panel.
SW1:
RS485 addresses 1-240 are allowed. With any other address the unit will blink
its error LED’s.
SW2
A: ON = LED Brightness varies based on ambient light, OFF = Fixed Brightness
B: ON = Low Brightness (if switch A is on fi xed brightnes mode), OFF = Normal
Brightness
C: Unused on Revolution series
D: Unused on Revolution series
The ICON-CP control panels do not hold any project data so if a panel was to
fail or be broken it could simply be swapped out with a unit set to the same
address. All control panels are constantly polling the RS485 network for status.
This will allow the user to update settings via 3rd party, other control panels or
the software GUI and have all panels constantly up to date.
Each RS485 port on the Revolution series allows you to run up to 20 control
panels to a maximum distance of 500 metres. With each unit featuring two
RS485 ports, this allows the AV Revolution to run up to 40 ICON-CP’s on two
separate 500m runs. The 500m limitation of the control panels is due to power
loss over distance and not RS485 limitations meaning if lengths longer than
500m are required you need to inject power locally for greater distances.
