(1) LCD SCREEN displays the current DSP module and parameter settings.

(2) SETUP button steps through parameters within DSP processing modules.

(3) PROCESS button steps through the DSP processing modules.

(4) SIGNAL LED lights up to indicate the channel is receiving a signal.

(5) GAIN controls adjusts the analogue input level. To increase signal gain, rotate the controls clockwise; to reduce the gain, rotate the knobs counter-clockwise.

(Fullrange models have separate GAIN knobsfor channels A and B, while iQ15B and iQ18B subwoofers have a single dedicated A/B knob forbothchannels.)

(6) OUTPUT A/OUTPUT B XLR connectors provide un-processed copies of the INPUT A or INPUTBsignals.

(7) LINE/MIC switch adjusts the input sensitivity for INPUT A and INPUT B.

(8) INPUT A/INPUT B combo jacks accept input signals using XLR, balanced ¼" TRS or unbalanced ¼"TSconnectors.

(9) POWER switch turns the unit on and o .

(10) AC INPUT accepts power connections from power cables  tted with Neutrik powerCON twist-lockingconnectors.

(11) ENCODER KNOB toggles between Graphic and Edit modes (when pressed) and changes parameter values (when rotated).

(12) EXIT button returns to the top-level DSP screen when pressed.

(13) ENTER button saves changes and deactivates Edit mode when pressed.

(14) MIX OUTPUT XLR jack (unavailable on iQ15B and iQ18B subwoofers) sends out a post-GAIN signal composed of the summed INPUT A and INPUT B signals.

(15) USB connection enables  rmware updates and remote control over parameters via computer. Pleasevisit turbosound.com to download DSP control sof tware for

your computer.

(16) ULTRANET THRU sends out unprocessed digital audio from the ULTRANET IN connector to additional ULTRANET-equipped devices.

(17) ULTRANET IN RJ45 plug comes with 2 linked green status LEDs. Whenever a CAT5 cable has been connected, and a valid ULTRANET signal is detected, both LEDs

will light up simultaneously to indicate that the ULTRANET signal is ready to use.

(18) VENTILATION FAN speed adjusts automatically to ensure trouble-free operation.

(19) AC LINK OUTPUT connects power to other devices using power cables with Neutrik powerCON twist-locking connectors.

Networking capability

All iQ powered loudspeakers o er remote control via USB. The USB connection allows the user to con gure and monitor all DSP parameters using dedicated iQ
software for PC.

The DSP  rmware can also be updated via the USB connection. Visitturbosound.com for the latest  rmware version.

iQ speakers also o er proprietary ULTRANET networking capabilities through the ULTRANET IN and THRU connections using CAT5 cables with RJ45 connectors.
ULTRANET allows the user to transmit unidirectionally up to 16 independent channels of 24-bit audio throughout the iQ system, as well as other ULTRANET-equipped
devices such as digital mixers and personal monitor systems. Up to 7 devices can be connected in series on a single ULTRANET cable. ULTRANET can also be used for
remote control of the iQselection of modeled speakers.

Networked mains power

iQ loudspeakers also facilitate networked transmission of mains power using power cables with NeutrikpowerCON locking power connectors. To set up networked
mains power between iQ loudspeakers,  rstrun a power cable terminating in a powerCON connector to the AC INPUT connector on the rear panel. Topower additional
speakers downline, run power cables equipped with powerCON connectors at both ends from the  rst speaker’s AC LINK OUTPUT to the AC INPUT of the next iQ
loudspeaker in series. Themaximum number of linked systems depends on the AC supply voltage as well as the maximum current draw of the individual systems in
the power chain. When linking a power chain, make sure that the integrated connectors as well as the supplied AC mains cable are never overloaded. If you are
uncertain how to calculate the total current draw, please contact your dealer.

14 iQ Series Quick Start Guide 15

Mounting and  xing

iQ series powered loudspeakers are designed with multiple internal rigging points to suit many possible mounting methods in permanent installations. All cabinets
can be simply suspended using optional M10 eyebolts coupled to the internal rigging points provided on the top, bottom, sides and back. The simplest method is to
use the two rigging points on the top and a single pull-back rigging point in the centre of the rear panel. Remove the appropriate plastic caps and insert eyebolts,
which must have a thread length of at least 30 mm. Use the rear rigging point to angle the cabinet for optimum room coverage.

Wall and Ceiling Brackets

TURBOSOUND iQ8-WB, iQ10-WB, iQ12-WB and iQ15-WB wall and ceiling brackets are optionally available for iQ series.

The graphic below shows the assembly of the optional mounting brackets (iQ8-WB, iQ10-WB, iQ12-WB and iQ15-WB).

Pole Mounting

Fullrange iQ loudspeaker models (iQ8, iQ10, iQ12 and iQ15) may also be pole mounted, eitherindependently or in conjunction with iQ subwoofer models (iQ15B, iQ18B).
The iQ pole mount sockets allow fullrange models to be mounted straight or angled 7.5° downwards for optimum coverage.

iQ10, iQ12 and iQ15 models may also be placed on one side and deployed as wedge monitors. Thesemodels have been designed with sides angled at 48° to help with
upward sound dispersion.

Transpo rt

The subwoofers are supplied with castors for ease of transportation when used as a portable sound system. To assemble the castors to the back of the cabinets, remove the 16
bolts from the rear of the speaker, align the castors w ith the mount holes and replace the bolts.

IMPORTANT NOTE: The mounting of a permanently installed sound system may be dangerous unless undertaken by quali ed personnel with the required experience and
certi cation to perform the necessar y tasks. Walls,  oors or ceilings must be capable of safely and securely supporting the ac tual load. Themounting accessory used must be
safely and securely  xed both to the loudspeaker and to the wall,  oor or ceiling.

When mounting rigging components on walls,  oors or ceilings, ensure that all  xings and fasteners used are of an appropriate size and load rating. Wall and ceiling
claddings, and the construction and composition of walls and ceilings, all need to be taken into account when determining whether a particular  xing arrangement can be
safely employed for a par ticular load. Cavity plugs or other specialist  xings, if required, must be of an appropriate type, and must be  tted and used in accordance with the
maker’sinstructions.

The operation of your speaker cabinet as part of a  own system, if installed incorrectly and improperly, canpotentially expose persons to serious health risks and
even death. In addition, please ensure that electrical, mechanical and acoustic considerations are discussed with quali ed and certi ed (by local state or national
authorities) personnel prior to any installation or  ying.

Make sure that speaker cabinets are set up and  own by quali ed and certi ed personnel only, using dedicated equipment and original parts and components
delivered with the unit. If any parts or components are missing please contact your Dealer before attempting to set up the system.

Be sure to observe the local, state and other safety regulations applicable in your country. MUSIC Group, including the MUSIC Group companies listed on the enclosed
“Service Information Sheet”, assumes no liability for any damage or personal injury resulting from improper use, installation or operation of the product. Regular
checks must be conduc ted by quali ed personnel to ensure that the system remains in a secure and stable condition. Make sure that, where the speaker is  own, the
area underneath the speaker is free of human tra c. Do not  y the speaker in areas that can be entered or used by members of the public.

Speakers create a magnetic  eld, even if not in operation. Therefore, please keep all materials that can be a ected by such  elds (discs, computers, monitors, etc) at a
safe distance. A safe distance is usually between 1 and 2 metres.
