IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK- DO NOT OPEN THE UNIT.
THERE ARE NO SERVICABLE COMPONENTS INSIDE.
1) Read these instructions.
2) Keep these instructions. Instructions are to be framed and placed adjacent to the control
unit for rady reference.
3) Heed all warnings.
4) Follow all instructions.
5) Do not use this apparatus near water.
6) Clean only with dry cloth.
7) Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in accordance with the manufacturer's
instructions.
8) Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other
apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce heat.
9) Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-type plug. A polarized plug
has two blades with one wider than the other. A grounding type plug has two blades and a
third grounding prong. The wide blade or the third prong are provided for your safety. If the
provided plug does not fit into your outlet, consult an electrician for replacement of the
obsolete outlet.
10) Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at plugs, convenience
receptacles, and the point where they exit from the apparatus.
11) Only use attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.
12) Use only with the cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table specified by the manufacturer, or sold
with the apparatus. When a cart is used, use caution when moving the cart/apparatus
combination to avoid injury from tip-over.
13) Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when the apparatus
has been damaged in any way, such as power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has
been spilled or objects have fallen into the apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to
rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.
14)
WARNING To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose this apparatus to rain
or moisture and do not expose to dripping or splashing and no objects filled with liquids,
such as vases, shall be placed on the apparatus
i.Net Quad OP
The primary sound source of the i.Net system is the Quad OP (Operating Platform) - A 1RU
rack mount unit that offers 4 OP's in 1, that produces, equalizes and distributes the sound.
Each Rack OP includes:
– Multiple, random sound masking sources, coupled with Lencore’s technology, produce a
sound quality that is random, making it exceptionally comfortable environment.
– Independent equalizers for unprecedented tuning where every channel of the system has a
separate and independent 1/3rd octave band equalizer or parametric equalizer.
– Sound frequencies and contour can be adjusted and set to any point on the acoustical
curve, from 20 Hz to 20 kHz, making i.Net the first networked sound masking system to
make fine-tuning the entire spectrum of sound possible.
–The multi-drop system and network is intelligent enough to bypass any failure in the system
to keep communicating throughout the entire network. Point-to-Point networks can not
achieve this level of connectivity and diagnostic control.
Groupings of sound sources and channels let you customize an almost limitless number of
zones for masking, paging and music, while maintaining the advantages of complete
networked operation and control.
Note: The i.Net Quad OP requires a Headend for music and paging applications.
Features and Capabilities:
The i.Net Quad OP includes many built-in features that used to require separately
purchased components.
• Data Entry Switches. The data entry switches allow the user to make a number of
adjustments to the system without using a computer.
• LCD display. The front panel display is used for displaying a variety of information.
• Four independent OP's in one unit for a total of 128 speakers on one unit
• Four IR input ports to control each OP separately with IR wall plates.
Installing the i.Net Quad OP:
The i.Net Quad OP is designed to be installed in a standard 19" rack.
Use four of the appropriate screws designed for the rack to mount to the OP.
Important: A 1RU of empty space is required immediately above the i.Net Quad OP for heat
dissipation. Failure to leave 1RU of empty space above the OP can result in the OP
overheating and eventual failure.
Front Panel
1. Data In/Out
Connect the Data out from the headend or previous OP to the OP Data In.
Connect the Data out to the next OP
Data In using RJ45 cables.
2. GND (Audio Common)
Connection for the ground wires to the
head end and next OP ground
connector.
3. IR
Connect IR wall units to these inputs
using RJ45 cables.
4. Channels
Connect external speakers to the
Channel's RJ45 connectors.
5. LEDs.
The PWR LED is on when power is
applied to the unit. The Fault LED is on
when the system is in a fault condition.
6. Data Entry Switches
The data entry switches are used to
make a number of adjustments to the
system without using a computer.
7. LCD Display
The LCD displays various diagnostic
messages and configuration
information about the system.
