SystemVUE SOFTWARE INSTRUCTIONS

The Current Preliminary SystemVUE Manual can be downloaded from: SystemVUE 3.8.20 Preliminary Manual Installation Instructions

  • Download SystemVUE 3.8.X beta software from the link included
  • Install software on any intel based Mac preferred, or a Windows 7-10 machine (refer to systemVUE manual for install instructions)
    • Make sure firewall settings are set for trusted networks
    • Connect only one SystemVUE PC at a time – If more than one computer on the subnet is running SystemVUE only the first one to log on the network will capture VUE systems on the network, the connection may become un-reliable if there are multiple SystemVUE instances on the same network.
  • Connect V-System Engines and H-Class systems ethernet ports using standard Cat-5e cables (100M cable length max)
    • To an existing network using DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol – Wikipedia Entry for DHCP) or you can create a DHCP based network by configuring a WiFI access point or other type of Routers (Cable Modems) to provide DHCP (typically the default configuration) this will supply a usable IP address to devices connected to the home network
    • Or directly to the LAN port of the PC for ad-hoc access
    • Fixed IP systems are possible, but not documented yet-contact VUE directly for further support
  • Launch SystemVUE software (refer to SystemVUE manual for operation instructions)
  • Power On VUE devices
  • Observe units coming on-line in the SystemVUE browser window and establishing link status
  • Select the “wink” button on each h-Class device to identify each unit via the blinking blue LED on the front or back of the speaker
  • Use the individual units control panels to “name” devices; i.e. AL-4 mains, Left HS-25 Sub, Right HS-25 Sub, and so on
  • Use the “make new group” function to combine multiple like devices into zones; i.e. Tops, Subs, Delays, etc.(refer to SystemVUE manual for further detail)
  • Any changes made in a control panel of one device in a group will make the same changes in all units in the group (all other like, grouped devices will follow accordingly)
  • Select appropriate preset from the drop down menu; either “al-4 Array 3 V4 r1”, or “al-4 Array 2 V4 r1”, or “Hs-28 80hz” typically
    • Array 3 for arrays of 8 or more al-4 elements reducing low frequency energy or smaller arrays with maximum splay or Array 2 for arrays of 4 al-4 elements or more with medium splay. (tops)
    • 60, 70, or 80hz for hs-28 (subs)
    • 70, 80, or 90hz for hs-25
  • If you are using the AES Digital input you can change the input from the default:
    • AES A
    • AES B
    • AES Mono (A+B)
  • Per output for V system engines, or per system for h-Class systems
    • Toggle “mute” with the labeled push-button
    • Adjust “delay” with by entering the desired time in the text box
    • Raise or lower the “volume” with the fader  or by entering the desired time in the text box

HARDWARE INSTRUCTIONS

  • For stereo V4 operation
    • Connect Left signal to input A, and Right to input B
    • Connect Left al-4 cable to output A, and Right al-4 cable to output B

Virtually all line array applications benefit from and many require the use of software modeling to aim each array. VUE supports AFMS’s EASE Focus software platform for all our line array products. We recommend that all VUE al-Class customers download the latest version of Focus along with our latest Focus GLL files (acoustical and physical datasets).

EASE Focus 3 – is an acoustic simulation program for 3D System modeling (displayed in 2.5D) of line arrays, sub arrays, digitally steered columns and conventional loudspeakers. EASE Focus 3 is free software for the end user but required manufacturers to publish their data in AFMG’s GLL format with an embedded licensee code to work with Focus 3. Focus is based on AFMG’s industry standard EASE simulation software.

EASE – Industry Standard for Acoustical Simulation of Rooms
Since the 1990´s, EASE has been the worldwide standard for acoustic simulation both inside rooms and in open areas. Rooms can be defined using a CAD module, absorption coefficients can be assigned to surfaces, and sound sources, as well as listener positions, can easily be added to the model. These data can then be used to generate an exact simulation of reverberation times, speech intelligibility and other acoustical parameters even before the room itself is built.
