HMS-10 Cinema Surround Loudspeaker (With Grille)
The HMS cinema surround loudspeaker is available in five models: HMS-5, HMS-10, HMS-12, HMS-15, and HMS-15AC, ranging in size, weight, driver size, and power to accommodate a wide range of venues and applications. The proprietary long-excursion cone drivers and diaphragm com­pression drivers are driven by an onboard amplifier that includes an active crossover, driver protection circuitry, and correction filters for flat phase and frequency response. A constant-directivity horn provides uniform, full-range, con­sistent coverage.
The HMS-5, HMS-10, HMS-12, and HMS-15 are equipped with IntelligentDC technology and receive DC power and bal­anced audio from composite Phoenix™ 5-pin connectors. Powering the loudspeakers from an external DC source elim­inates the need for AC conduits while preserving the advan­tages of self-powered systems. IntelligentDC loudspeakers require an MPS-488HP external power supply. The single­space 19-inch rack unit distributes DC power and balanced audio to up to eight HMS-5, HMS-10, or HMS-12 loudspeak-

1502 or equivalent, can deliver both DC power and balanced audio to loudspeakers at cable lengths up to 150 feet with just 1 dB of loss in peak SPL using 18 AWG wire. Longer cable runs are possible with heavier gauges. The MPS-488HP is optionally available with an RMS™ remote monitoring system module for monitoring voltage and current draw for its attached loudspeakers from
®
a Mac
or Windows®-based computer.
The HMS-15AC is an AC-powered version of the HMS-15. Its Intelligent AC™ power supply provides automatic voltage selection, EMI filtering, soft current turn-on, and surge sup­pression. The HMS-15AC is optionally available with its own onboard RMS remote monitoring system module for compre­hensive monitoring of loudspeaker parameters from a Mac or Windows-based computer.
The versatile HMS can be suspended or mounted on walls or ceilings at fixed or adjustable angles with optional half-yoke, U-bracket, or wall-mount brackets, allowing it to be deployed per the requirements of any surround application or immer­sive cinema format.
Meyer Sound’s industry-leading self-powered technology not only delivers unparalleled and consistent audio fidelity but also simplifies installation, whether designing new rooms from scratch or adding surround channels to existing instal­lations. The HMS cabinet features a black textured finish and an acoustically transparent, detachable, black cloth grille that blend smartly with any theatre decor.

SINGLE-CHANNEL INPUT CONNECTOR (HMS-5, HMS-10, AND HMS-12)

The HMS-5, HMS-10, and HMS-12 loudspeakers receive DC power and balanced audio from a single Phoenix 5-pin male Input connector. The connector includes two pins for DC power (positive and negative) and three pins for balanced audio (positive, negative, and shield). The pins are clearly labeled on the HMS user panel. To function properly, the HMS-5, HMS-10, and HMS-12 require an MPS-488HP Intel­ligentDC power supply (one channel output per loudspeaker). The MPS-488HP can power up to eight single-channel HMS loudspeakers.
Single-Channel Input Connector (HMS-5, HMS-10, and HMS-12)

DUAL-CHANNEL INPUT CONNECTORS (HMS-15)

The HMS-15 loudspeaker receives DC power and balanced audio from two Phoenix 5-pin male Input connectors. Each connector includes two pins for DC power (positive and neg­ative) and three pins for balanced audio (positive, negative, and shield). The pins are clearly labeled on the HMS-15 user panel. To function properly, the HMS-15 requires an MPS-488HP IntelligentDC power supply (two channel out­puts per loudspeaker). The MPS-488HP can power up to four HMS-15 loudspeakers.
Single-channel HMS loudspeakers ship with one Phoenix 5-pin female cable mount connector for assembling loud­speaker cables. A single composite cable (such as Belden 1502 or equivalent) can be used to route DC power and balanced audio to the HMS loudspeaker. For more infor­mation, see “Belden 1502 Cable (or Equivalent)” on page 10 and Appendix B, “Assembling Loudspeaker Cables.”
CAUTION: When wiring HMS loudspeaker
cables, it is extremely important that each pin be wired correctly. Make sure the 48 V DC from the external power supply is wired directly (and only) to the 48 V DC pins on the loudspeaker connector, and that the polarity is observed (negative to negative, positive to positive) to avoid damage to the loud­speaker. In addition, make sure that audio pins are wired correctly; polarity reversals for audio signals affect system performance.
Dual-Channel Input Connectors (HMS-15)
The HMS-15 must be connected to a channel output pair (1–2, 3–4, 5–6, or 7–8) of the MPS-488HP using two sepa­rate composite cables. When successfully connected and receiving the required voltage, both Input LEDs for the HMS-15 turn solid green. Identical audio signals can be sent to the two inputs with no additional gain and no adverse effect. Sending different audio signals to the two inputs is not recommended and could cause one signal to be heard in the background.
NOTE: If the HMS-15 does not sense power
from both inputs (both Input LEDs lit) then it will
not output audio.
HMS-15 loudspeakers ship with two Phoenix 5-pin female cable mount connectors for assembling loudspeaker cables. Separate composite cables (such as Belden 1502 or equiva­lent) must be used to route DC power and balanced audio to the two inputs for the HMS-15 loudspeaker. For more infor­mation, see “Belden 1502 Cable (or Equivalent)” on page 10 and Appendix B, “Assembling Loudspeaker Cables.”

cables, it is extremely important that each pin be wired correctly. Make sure the 48 V DC from the external power supply is wired directly (and only) to the 48 V DC pins on the loudspeaker connector, and that the polarity is observed (negative to negative, positive to positive) to avoid damage to the loud­speaker. In addition, make sure that audio pins are wired correctly; polarity reversals for audio signals affect system performance.
CURRENT DRAW AND CABLE REQUIRE­MENTS FOR HMS LOUDSPEAKERS
DC current draw for HMS loudspeakers is dynamic and fluc­tuates as operating levels change. Cabling between HMS loudspeakers and their external power supply adds resis­tance and hence causes a voltage drop at the loudspeakers. Because lower DC voltages compromise amplifier perfor­mance (peak SPL), and in some cases frequency response, cable resistance should be kept to a minimum.

Cable Lengths and Cable Gauges

Cable lengths up to 150 feet between HMS loudspeakers and their external power supply are supported with only 1 dB of peak SPL loss using 18 AWG wire. Longer cable lengths are possible with heavier wire gauges (see Table 1 and Table 2).
Table 1: HMS Loudspeaker Cable Lengths (AWG)

NOTE: For long cable runs, you can use a large
cable gauge for DC power and a separate bal­anced audio cable for audio. For more information, see “Long Cable Runs with Separate Cable for DC Power and Audio” on page 11.

Calculating the Maximum Cable Length

The maximum cable length for an HMS loudspeaker can be calculated with the following formula:
maximum length = 2 ohms / (2 * cable resistance)
For example, the maximum length of an 18 AWG cable with a resistance of 0.00636 is 157.2 feet (2 / (2 * 0.00636)).

BELDEN 1502 CABLE (OR EQUIVALENT)

The most convenient method of wiring HMS loudspeaker cables is with a multiconductor cable such as Belden 1502, which has dedicated conductors for DC power and bal­anced audio in a single jacket. When wiring loudspeaker cables with Belden 1502 (or equivalent), use the conventions in Table 3. The red and black wires are 18 AWG, thicker than the other three wires, and should be used for DC power (cable lengths up to 150 feet are possible with just 1 dB of peak SPL loss). The blue, white, and shield drain wires should be used for audio.

that the polarity is observed (negative to negative, positive to positive) to avoid damage to the loud­speaker. In addition, make sure that audio pins are wired correctly; polarity reversals for audio signals affect system performance.
NOTE: For more information on cable assem-
bly, refer to Appendix B, “Assembling Loud-
speaker Cables.”
NOTE: For a complete list of available cables
and cable accessories from Meyer Sound, refer
to Appendix A, “HMS Accessories.”

LONG CABLE RUNS WITH SEPARATE CABLE FOR DC POWER AND AUDIO

For installations where Belden 1502 is not feasible, or for installations that require cable runs longer than 150 feet, you can use separate cables for DC power and balanced audio: a large-gauge cable for DC and a high-quality, balanced audio cable for audio. The separate cables attach to the Phoenix connector at the loudspeaker as shown in Figure 1. Cable runs longer than 150 feet for DC power require cable gauges larger than 18 AWG; for more information, see “Cable Lengths and Cable Gauges” on page 10.

Normal Operation (Green)

When powering on the HMS loudspeaker, the following startup events occur and are indicated by the On/Status LED:
1. The On/Status LED flashes multiple colors during its power-on sequence.
2. The LED turns solid green, indicating the power-on sequence has completed and the loudspeaker is ready to reproduce audio.
3. The LED remains green but is dimmed to eliminate any undesired glow in darkened theatres.
CAUTION: If after the power-on sequence the
On/Status LED does not turn solid green (instead flashes multiple colors or stays solid red) and the HMS loudspeaker does not output audio, the loudspeaker has encountered an error and may need to be serviced. Contact Meyer Sound Technical Support.
NOTE: All three LEDs for the HMS-15 (Input 1,
Input 2, and On/Status) must turn solid green before it will output audio. If some or all of the HMS-15 LEDs remain unlit, or not green, verify the cabling to the MPS-488HP.

Limiting (Yellow)

The On/Status LED turns yellow to indicate limiting. When the LED is solid yellow, limiting is engaged for the high-frequency channel. When the LED flashes yellow (on and off), limiting is engaged for the low-frequency channel.
Figure 1: Separate Cables for DC Power and Balanced Audio

ON/STATUS LED

The HMS user panel includes an On/Status LED that indi­cates whether the loudspeaker is operating normally (green), limiting or overheating (yellow), or clipping (red).
NOTE: The HMS-15 also includes two Input
LEDs that indicate, when solid green, when the
inputs are receiving voltage from the MPS-488HP.
When engaged, limiting not only protects the drivers but also prevents signal peaks from causing excessive distortion in the amplifier channels, thereby preserving headroom and maintaining smooth frequency response at high levels. When levels return to normal, below the limiter thresholds, limiting ceases and the On/Status LED returns to green.
The HMS loudspeaker performs within its acoustical specifi­cations at normal temperatures when the On/Status LED is green, or when limiting is not continuous. If limiting activity is continuous, the loudspeaker is nearing the limits of its oper­ating capabilities where:
Increases to the input level have no effect
Distortion increases due to clipping
Drivers are subjected to excessive heat and excursion,
thereby compromising their lifespan
11
Page 12
CHAPTER 2: HMS LOUDSPEAKERS
!
!
CAUTION: Continuous limiting indicates that a
safe, optimum level has been exceeded. If the HMS loudspeakers in a cinema installation begin to limit before reaching the desired SPL, consider adding more units to the system.
Operating Temperature
The On/Status LED also turns solid yellow when the HMS loudspeaker’s internal temperature reaches a certain level, indicating the unit is reaching its maximum heat dissipation. When the On/Status LED is yellow, a reduction in SPL is rec­ommended. While the loudspeaker will continue to operate while the LED is yellow, the limiter threshold is lowered (caus­ing the output level to also be reduced) to prevent the loud­speaker from overheating. When the loudspeaker’s internal temperature returns to a normal level, the On/Status LED returns to green and the limiter threshold returns to normal.
Amplifier Cooling
HMS loudspeakers rely solely on natural convection for cool­ing from air flowing over their heat sinks. The efficient ampli­fier and heat sink design keeps temperatures low, even when units are operated at high ambient temperatures and driven continuously at high output levels.

PAD SWITCH (HMS-10 ONLY)

The HMS-10 user panel includes a Pad switch that, when enabled, reduces the loudspeaker’s internal gain by 7.5 dB, thereby lowering the loudspeaker’s noise floor. This reduces noise generated from audio sources upstream from the loud­speaker and is especially useful for close-proximity listening.
HMS-10 Pad Switch
NOTE: When the Pad switch is enabled (set to
Pad), to achieve the linear peak SPL for the loudspeaker, the gain for the processor driving the loudspeaker must be increased by 7.5 dB.

Clipping on Input (Red)

The On/Status turns red when the loudspeaker’s input stage clips, causing the amplifier to overload. When the On/Status LED is red, the source level should be reduced to avoid dis­tortion and to avoid overloading the amplifier.
CAUTION: If the On/Status LED turns solid red
and the loudspeaker continues to output audio, though at reduced levels, the loudspeaker’s voltage may have dropped below 25 V DC. When these con­ditions are encountered, operation of the loudspeaker should cease and its power supply and cabling should be verified.

CHAPTER 4: HMS MOUNTING OPTIONS

IMPORTANT SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS!

When mounting Meyer Sound loudspeakers, the following precautions should always be observed:
All Meyer Sound products must be used in accordance
with local, state, federal, and industry regulations. It is the owner’s and user’s responsibility to evaluate the reliability of any rigging or mounting method for their application. Rigging should only be carried out by experienced profes­sionals.
Use mounting and rigging hardware that has been rated
to meet or exceed the weight being hung.
Make sure to attach mounting hardware to the building’s
structural components (studs or joists), and not just to the
wall surface. Verify that the building’s structure and the anchors used for the installation will safely support the total weight of the mounted loudspeakers.
Use mounting hardware appropriate for the surface where
the loudspeaker will be installed.
Make sure bolts are tightened securely. Meyer Sound rec-
ommends using Loctite on bolt threads and safety cables.
Inspect mounting and rigging hardware regularly. Imme-
diately replace any worn or damaged components.

HMS MOUNTING OPTIONS

CHAPTER 5: REMOVING HMS GRILLE FRAMES

!
If a cinema installation requires it, HMS grille frames can be easily removed. Grille frames for the HMS-5 and HMS-10 are removed by simply unsnapping the corner treeloks and removing the grille. Grille frames for the HMS-12 and HMS-15 include an L-bracket securing them to the bottom of the cabinet, for safety reasons, that must be removed before the grille can be detached.

REMOVING HMS-12 AND HMS-15 GRILLE FRAMES

To remove the HMS-12 or HMS-15 grille frame:
1. Use a Phillips-head screwdriver to loosen the pan head screw on the bottom front of the cabinet securing the grille-frame’s L-bracket. Slide the L-bracket forward to remove it. Set the L-bracket aside.
2. Re-tighten the pan head screw without the L-bracket installed.
3. Unsnap the corner treeloks of the grille frame and remove the grille.
CAUTION: For installations that require grille frames, do not remove the L-brackets securing HMS-12 and
HMS-15 grille frames.

524.014 Bulk cable, no connectors (regular) 500-ft spool, black
524.015 Bulk cable, no connectors (plenum) 500-ft spool, white
NOTE: Bulk cables use Belden 1502R (regular) or Belden 1502P (plenum) cable. Belden 1502 is a composite
cable comprised of two 18 AWG wires for DC power, two 22 AWG wires for balanced audio, and one 24 AWG wire for audio shield. This single cable can deliver both DC power and balanced audio to loudspeakers at cable runs of up to 150 feet with only 1 dB of loss in peak SPL. Longer cable runs are possible with heavier gauges for DC power and separate cables for balanced audio. For more information, see “Current Draw and Cable Requirements for HMS Loudspeakers” on page 10.

Pin 3 Shield drain Audio shield
Pin 4 Blue Audio shield (–)
Pin 5 White Audio shield (+)
CAUTION: When wiring loudspeaker cables, it is extremely important that each pin be wired correctly. Make sure
the 48 V DC from the external power supply is wired directly (and only) to the 48 V DC pins on the loudspeaker connector, and that the polarity is observed (negative to negative, positive to positive) to avoid damage to the loud­speaker. In addition, make sure that audio pins are wired correctly; polarity reversals for audio signals affect system performance.

ASSEMBLING PHOENIX-TO-PHOENIX LOUDSPEAKER CABLES

When connecting Phoenix-equipped HMS loudspeakers to the MPS-488HPp power supply (also with Phoenix connectors), you need a Phoenix 5-pin female to Phoenix 5-pin female cable. The following procedure documents how to assemble this cable.
Assembled Phoenix-to-Phoenix Cable
To assemble a Phoenix-to-Phoenix cable:
1. If the cable has not yet been stripped, strip one end of the cable. Strip the outer shielding by 1 inch and then strip the black, red, blue, and white wires by 0.275 inch.
2. Insert the five exposed conductors into the five cable holes in a Phoenix 5-pin female cable mount connector. Use the fol­lowing wiring scheme.

APPENDIX B: ASSEMBLING LOUDSPEAKER CABLES
Tighten screws
!
3. Secure the conductors by tightening the five screws in the Phoenix cable mount connector. Screws should be torqued to 5–6 Nm (4.4–5.3 in-lbs).
CAUTION: Screws should not be inserted into the Phoenix connector while the connector rests in a mating plug.
Doing so will damage the contacts. During assembly, the Phoenix connector should only be held in place exter-
nally.
4. Repeat the previous steps and attach the other end of the cable to another Phoenix 5-pin female cable mount connector.
5. Verify the wiring polarity is correct for both cable ends.
