dB Technologies IG5TR Full Range Loudspeaker User Manual

INGENIA IG5TR is a powerful 2-way active vertical speaker, equipped with one compression driver (3” v.c., 1.4” exit) and three 10” woofer, in an innovative shape. The wave guide of the driver is vertically asymmetrical, for a precise acoustical coverage in different kind of installations, indoor and outdoor.
The new powerful amplifier section, capable of handling up to 1600 W (RMS power), is controlled by a DSP, which can performa detailed customization of the output sound of the speaker.
In particular, the DSP can recognize if 2 INGENIA IG5TRs are installed together, stacked or flown, through the special IR communication ports, and can perform a digital steering, making them sound as one single source with a selectable inclination.

*INSTALLER NOTES: The values refer to 1/8 of full power, in average operating conditions (music program with infrequent or no clipping). It is recommended to consider them the minimum sizing values, for any type of configuration.
**INSTALLER NOTES: The values refer to 1/3 of full power, in heavy operating conditions (music program with frequent clipping or activation of the limiter. We recommend sizing according to these values in case of professional installations and tours.

MECHANICS

HANDLES
On each side of the loudspeaker the user can find two handles for easy handling (A).
MECHANICAL FIXING POINT
On each side there are two mechanical fixing point (B) for stacked and flown configurations (see the following dedicated chapter) using dedicated accessories.
LP-1 BRACKET
Also included is one LP-1 bracket (C), already mounted in the dedicated housing in the back of the loudspeaker. This accessory allows to stack up to n°2 IG5TR loudspeakers.
IR PORT
On the top of the loudspeaker takes place an IR port (D) for speaker communication in case of 2 speakers configuration.

CONFIGURATIONS

Stacked configuration IG5TR, GSA-IG5TR mounting adapter, IGS1 subwoofer

Stacked configuration IG5TR, GSA-IG5TR mounting adapter, IGS2 subwoofer
Flown configuration DRK-IG5TR, 2x IG5TR, 2x LP-1

For multiple-speaker configuration (stacked or flown):

the upper speaker must be mounted upside down to maintain the correct sound coverage
once the DSP has recognized 2 IG5TRs thanks to the infrared handles, it acts as a custom delay line on the transducers, in order to direct the final acoustical coverage of the speakers (Steering). This parameter can be set-up from the speaker display For more information about the allowed configurations, please refer to the accessories user manual.

TURN ON AND I/O SETTINGS

Connect first the audio source to the input socket (6); to link the audio signal to another loudspeaker, please use a cable with XLR connectors (not supplied). Connect the Output Link (5) of the first, to the balanced Input of the second one, and so on.Plug properly the mains POWERCON TRUE1 cable (supplied) in the related input (8) to turn on the system. To supply power to another speaker connect the Mains Link output (9) of the first speaker to the Mains Input of the second one and so on. To find out how many modules can be connected in a linked system, refer to the “TECHNICAL SPECIFICA-TIONS” or “CONNECTIONS” sections in the INGENIA IG5TR user manual.In case of remote control, connect the Data Input of the loudspeaker to the hardware remote controller (RDNet Control 2 or RDNet Control 8) with cables equipped with etherCON connectors. Connect the Data Output of the first loudspeaker, to the Data Input of the second one, and so on. Please refer to RDNet Control 2 or RDNet Control 8 user manuals for further information.SETUP
The internal DSP provides an easy installation and allows to configure quickly the IG5TR. The settings saved on the loudspeaker are stored for future use even after the loudspeaker is turned off. All the system parameters shown on the display can be edited by rotating and pressing the encoder.

In the Preset page, the user can save and load up to 3 custom presets, load the factory preset or a preset from AURORA Net.

The DSP page allows to set the acoustical data of the loudspeaker (including Gain, Delay, High Pass Filter), set the steering and the beam value.In the Settings page, the user can set the detection mode, activate the display standby mode, adjust the brightness of the display and set the ambient temperature.The Info page shows the Amp temperature (Status), the loudspeaker Model, the firmware and the bootloader version actually installed on the loudspeaker.The Reset page allow to delete all the user presets and to restore the factory default.
