is a registered trademark of Microsoft Corporation. RaneWare is a registered trademark of Rane Corporation.

SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS

RaneWare works under Microsoft Windows 3.1 or

Windows 95

, on a PC or laptop with an unused serial port.

Recommended optimum system: 486 or higher with at least

16 colors. Monochrome displays work, though adjustment of

the gray scaling is necessary for optimum viewing.

RW 232, RaneWare’s protocol, uses a DB-9 cable less

than 50 feet long, connecting from the serial port of a com-

puter to the RPM 26 communications Input port. No interface

boxes are required; just a cable and your computer.

RaneWare can be fully demonstrated and used without an

actual RPM 26 attached. Simply select the OFFLINE

RPM 26 or any other OFFLINE unit under Select in the

Device menu.

A RaneWare 3½" floppy comes with each unit. Installa-

tion is simple, using the instructions below. The latest version

is downloadable 24 hours a day from Rane’s Internet site:

http://www.rane.com.

QUICK START

If you don’t read all of this document, you risk setting up your system improperly. But at least read this section and the

Input Trim section on page Manual-12. Paying careful attention to your system’s gain structure and setting the RPM’s

Input Trim properly are essential in maximizing the noise performance of your entire system. (See the enclosed RaneNote

“Setting Sound System Level Controls”.) Once you’re done reading and memorizing the manual, please recycle the paper

it is printed on by reconing an old speaker. If RaneWare has not yet been installed on your computer, refer to STEP BY

STEP RANEWARE INSTALLATION on page Manual-2 first.

Leave the audio connections on the RPM 26 until last. Connect the RW 232 INPUT jack on the unit’s rear to a serial

(COM) port on a PC-compatible computer using a standard 9-pin RS-232 cable. A short one is supplied with the unit,

which is intended to connect between units in a rack. The cable and adapter must not be a null-modem type.

Locate the RW 232 DEVICE ADDRESS switch on the rear panel. If this unit is to be used by itself, set the switch to

‘1’ by setting all switches off (down), except switch one (labeled ‘1’ on the chassis, the right-most switch when viewed

from the rear). If there is more than one unit, refer to Device Address Calculator in the software’s Help system or run

the included Device Address Calculator software and set a unique address for each unit.

Apply power by connecting the RS 3 remote supply’s 5-pin DIN jack to the rear of the unit, then connect the IEC end

to a powered AC outlet. CAUTION: Do not connect anything but an approved RANE power supply to this jack. If the RS 3

and the RPM 26 are getting power, the yellow front panel POWER LED will be on.

Start your computer, run Windows

, and launch RaneWare by double-clicking on the RaneWare™ umbrella icon.

(See the next page for software installation instructions.) The Help file’s Software License Agreement appears the first

time RaneWare is run — read it all and close it. Then the System Setup window may appear. If it doesn’t, select

System Setup from the Setup menu. Be careful to select the COM port which is physically connected to the RPM 26.

Click OK. Now, the Device Selection window may appear. If it doesn’t, choose Select from the Device menu. Click on

Poll… and the Devices Found: displays the units found. Click the Stop button to stop Polling. Select the unit from the

Device Selection window and click OK. If no unit was found, please refer to the TROUBLESHOOTING section at the

end of this manual or in the software’s Help system.

Several clues indicate communication between the computer and the RPM 26. The yellow COM (communications)

LED on the front of the unit flashes or stays on. The Memory numbers (1-16) near the top of the computer screen will be

black rather than gray. The Active indicator at the bottom left of the computer screen will be green.

Important Note: The RPM 26 contains many insightful, preprogrammed DSP Programs. Each “fixed” DSP Program

can be thought of as a unique “system setup,” i.e., 2-way crossover system, 3-way system, 2 x 6 splitter, etc. Each of the 16

Memories can contain a different DSP Program. Before connecting the RPM 26 to the other audio components in your

system, it is wise to choose and store the appropriate DSP Program for your system in all 16 Memories. This avoids the

problem of accidentally recalling a Memory that restores an undesired DSP Program, such as the case where you recall

from a 3-way DSP Program to a splitter: this sends full-range audio to all Outputs!

Once the proper DSP Program is stored in the RPM’s memories, audio connections can be made. Turn the amplifier(s)

off until all connections are complete. Connect balanced audio INPUTS and OUTPUTS to the Euroblocks on the rear.

Note: If you have previously

installed an older version of

RaneWare and you just received a

new RPM 26 unit, you must reinstall

the new version of RaneWare that

was shipped with your unit. Use of

an old version will not work and

could be a leading cause of halitosis.

Manual-2

FRONT PANEL DESCRIPTION

1. Signal/Overload. These multi-color LEDs indicate the presence of a significant audio Signal (green) or Overload conditions

(red). Both Input and Output indicators are provided for signal flow verification without a computer. The Inputs’ Signal

LEDs are driven from an analog comparator circuit prior to the input level control. All other LEDs are controlled from the

microprocessor.

The Output LEDs cycle yellow from left to right during power up and when the unit is loading a new DSP Program. All

outputs are muted during DSP Program changes.

If Output 1 or 2 is flashing, something has gone wrong. See TROUBLESHOOTING on page Manual-21.

2. COM (yellow, communications) flashes when a message for the unit is successfully received. This LED flashes often when

communicating with the computer, since metering messages are continually requested by the computer. The COM LED may

flash so often it may appear to be constantly on. There is also a brief flash whenever the Remote Switch Interface is used.

3. POWER indicates that the unit is connected to a powered RS 3 remote supply.

RPM 26 CONNECTION

When connecting the RPM 26 in your system, leave its

power supply and the amplifiers for last. This gives you a

chance to correct mistakes before damage is done to your

amps, speakers, ears, etc. Also, be sure to read the Important

Note in the QUICK START section on page Manual-1.

The RPM 26 has balanced Inputs and Outputs, with

shields connected to the chassis through three #4 serrated

screws on the rear. Keep these screws tight for the best

possible shield-to-chassis connections. The RS-232 cable

shields connect to the chassis through the four nuts and star

washers that the cable screws into. Be sure to screw down RS-

232 cables to guarantee good shield connections. The chassis

and the audio signal ground are connected together inter-

nally at the audio Input screw terminal. The RPM 26 chassis

connects through the RS 3 power supply cables to the earth

ground (3

pin) of the 100 and 120 VAC line cords. A 6-32

screw and star washer are also provided on the unit’s rear if a

technical ground connection is needed. This chassis connec-

tion is also recommended for 230V operation. Connect the

non-inverting (positive) audio lines to the ‘+’ terminals, and

the inverting (negative) lines to the ‘–’ terminals. Connect the

cable shields to the center terminal on the Euroblock. For

those installations where the RPM’s internal shield-to-chassis

connection causes interference, connect the shields directly to

the chassis PEM nuts directly above each shield terminal. Be

sure to bite through the paint with the star washer and keep

the shields wrapped around the audio conductors as much as

possible. For the “theoretical” best ElectroMagnetic Interfer-

ence (EMI) immunity, connect the shields at both ends of the

cables. (For more information on System Connections, see

RaneNote 110, “Sound System Interconnection” later in this

manual or on Rane’s Internet Web site at www.rane.com.)

For those systems where Murphy and his EMI pests have

arisen or for those who wish not to tempt fate, the RPM 26

accepts optional line level input isolation transformers (Rane

part number 150-010). Call your nearest Rane dealer for more

information on the optional transformers.

To control the unit from a computer, use 9-pin RS-232

cables which are 50 feet or shorter. The cable and adapter

must not be a null-modem type. A short cable is supplied for

connecting adjacent units. Daisy-chain up to 250 units by

connecting the computer COM port to the RW 232 INPUT

connector on the first unit. Then connect the unit’s RW 232

OUTPUT connector to the next unit’s RW 232 INPUT.

The DEVICE ADDRESS switch identifies each unit with

an ‘address’, and must be set uniquely for each unit. The

switches form a binary code from 0 through 255. Only the

numbers 1 through 250 may be used. The place values of

each switch are marked on the rear panel. The switch itself

may have numbers printed on it; these should be ignored. To

set a specific address, refer to the SETTING THE DEVICE

ADDRESS section on page Manual-22 or run the Address

Calculator software included with RaneWare.

The REMOTE SWITCH INTERFACE (RSI) provides

contact closure control for up to eight preset memories. No

computer is required after the initial setup. There are nine

screw terminals; one is the common chassis ground (COM),

and the other eight are for Memories 1 through 8. Connection

of one of these to the COM terminal causes the unit to recall a

preset Memory. Multiple units may be controlled by connect-

ing these terminals in parallel. Either momentary or latching

switches may be used. A latching switch should only close

one contact at a time. If an RSI switch configuration changes

while the power is off, Memory recall results upon power-up

— since the RPM checks for changes to the RSI port each

time power is restored.
