dB TECHNOLOGIES AC26N - Manual (Page 9)

INTRODUCTION
AC26N is a digital sound processor for the management of audio systems, designed for
fixed and touring installations. AC26N uses the most modern technology with 28/56 bit
processors and high performance 24 bits AD/DA converters.
The functions available in the processor are: input and output levels, delay, polarity, 12
equalization bands for each input and output channel, multiple crossover and high
performance limiter.
The control resolution of the filters is 1Hz. Inputs and outputs can be set according to
many configurations to meet any need.
AC26N can be controlled in real time and each one of its parameters can be configured on
the front panel, and through a computer by means of an intuitive graphical interface,
accessible through the software DVA Network and a dedicated RDnet or USB network
connection.
The CPU and DSP software update, via PC, allows to keep the device up to date. It is
possible to save and recall 32 preset configurations.

DVA USB Manager
The firmware of the amplifier module can be updated via the USB port.
To make this update possible and simple, a dedicated program has been developed.
It is recommended to download DVA USB Manager free software directly
from dB Technologies (www.dbtechnologies.com) in the special section
«Software & Controller»
DVA Network
The AC26N is equipped with proprietary network interface, called RDNET, for PC
interface through a device (RDNET control).
For this purpose, a proprietary communication protocol has been developed for receiving
and sending data; this connection permits real-time monitoring of the diffuser parameters,
such as output power, amplifier temperature, limiter status, etc...
It is also possible to select various equalizations or create new ones, set the desired
volume levels using the specific plug-in.
