SECTION 2 : BEFORE YOU BEGIN
The VERTEC® DP Series systems covered by this manual are not intended for fixed installation
in outdoor or high moisture environments. Moisture can damage the speaker cone and surround
and cause corrosion of electrical contacts and metal parts. Avoid exposing the speakers to direct
moisture. Keep loudspeakers out of extended or intense direct sunlight. The driver suspension will
prematurely dry out and finished surfaces may be degraded by long-term exposure to intense ultraviolet (UV) light.
VERTEC® DP Series Fullsize Powered Line Array loudspeakers can be suspended with available
array frames (P/N VT4889-AF, VT4889-SF) or they can be ground-stacked. These systems can
generate considerable energy. When placed on a slippery surface such as polished wood or
linoleum, a single speaker may move due to its acoustical energy output. Precautions should be
taken to assure that the speaker does not fall off a stage or scaffold platform on which it is placed.
While it is unlikely that a ground-stacked array will move when properly attached to its array frame,
precautions should be taken to assure that the array assembly cannot fall from any surface on
which it is placed. Hearing damage, prolonged exposure to excessive SPL VERTEC® DP Series
loudspeakers are easily capable of generating sound pressure levels (SPL) sufficient to cause
permanent hearing damage to performers, production crew and audience members. Caution should
be taken to avoid prolonged exposure to SPL in excess of 90 dB.

SECTION 5 : ENCLOSURE CARE AND MAINTENANCE
VERTEC DP Series enclosures are constructed of JBL PlyMax™, an exclusive hybrid engineered-wood
technology designed to reduce enclosure weight while offering exceptional panel rigidity with the appropriate
acoustical properties. The exterior of each enclosure is covered with JBL’s exclusive DuraFlex™ finish.

PAINTING JBL VerTec DP SERIES SYSTEM PRODUCTS
Each JBL Professional VERTEC DP Series system model is readily paintable. The DuraFlex finish provides
a lightly textured surface that any household or industrial paint readily adheres to. The result is a speaker
enclosure that is able to blend unobtrusively into the decor of any stage set or environment.
Instructions for painting wood enclosures (do not paint the JBL DrivePack®):
1. Prepare the enclosure surface by cleaning and wiping off dust and film with a damp cloth. It may be
necessary to use a mild household cleaner to remove grease. Avoid using a cloth that will deteriorate over
the textured surface.
2. Apply as many coats of paint as is required. Application can be by rolling, brushing or spraying. Care must
be taken when painting the grille. Avoid any paint or type of application that will clog the open cells in the
foam of the front grille. Depending on the type of paint, it may not be wise to spray the grille.
3. For painting systems that are installed in environmentally-hostile locations, it is recommended that an
automotive paint should be used for maximum protection.
Note: for systems that will be transported on a regular basis, oil-based paints or Krylon-type spray paints will
give better long-term results than water-based Latex type paints.

If audio input signals are not detected for 2 hours, the amplifier
will go into sleep/standby mode; the amplifier output section is
turned off while the supply powering the DP Input Module and
DSP logic remains active.  This mode reduces current draw and
heat loss.  While in sleep mode the READY indicator pulses
slowly. Recovery from sleep mode is instantaneous when an
audio signal is detected.                 
Thermal Management:
JBL DrivePack® systems are cooled by Passive Convection.  
No fans are used in any part of the thermal management system.  To maintain efficient cooling it is a good
practice to assure open space around the DrivePack units.  
Operating Temperature:
The system will remain touchable during quiescent operation and will not provide a burn hazard during
any operating condition.   

Input Module Controls, Indicators and Connectors

JBL DrivePack® systems are equipped with a modular input bay and input modules are available in three
versions in the VERTEC DP Series: the DPIP, DPDA, DPAN and the DPCN.
Audio Signal Distribution
Connecting source audio signals to the input modules on JBL
DrivePack systems is similar to daisy-chaining multiple external
amplifier channels together.  
Assuming an output device source impedance of 100 Ohms
and a 10:1 load to source ratio, up to 20 JBL DrivePack units
typical can be linked together on one output source without
using a distribution amp.
NOTE: Please refer to VERTEC DP Series spec sheets for
additional features and specifications of the DPIP, DPAN and
DPCN input modules.

It is recommended to visit www.harman.com for the most up to date version of HiQnet System Architect.

QUICK-START CONFIGURATION GUIDE

For JBL DrivePack-equipped loudspeaker Systems using System Architect software                      
INTRODUCTION:
This guide applies to all JBL loudspeaker models powered by DrivePack DP1, DP2 or DP3 amplifier
assemblies which incorporate DPAN, DPCN or DPDA input modules.  
Each loudspeaker must be connected to a 100BaseT Ethernet switch using a standard CAT-5 cable.
Loudspeakers with DPDA input modules could alternatively use one CAT-5-to-switch connection per cluster.
The control computer which will run System Architect must also be connected by a 100BaseT connection to
a switch on the same physical network.
If managed Ethernet switches are a part of the network, additional knowledge of TCP/IP protocols and
Ethernet-switch manufacturer-specific configurations may be required. This is beyond the scope of this
document. It is assumed that unmanaged switches are used in the networking examples discussed below.
Special requirements exist for CobraNet™ - compliant products using the DPCN input module. This is
addressed in Appendix A.
A Glossary of networking terminology used is provided at the end of this document.
AS-SHIPPED ETHERNET CONFIGURATION:
Each loudspeaker product is shipped from the JBL factory with the following configuration:
   - DHCP is enabled. (See glossary for details)
   - Auto IP address negotiation is enabled (See glossary for details)
   - Auto HiQnet device setting is enabled. (See glossary for details)
   - The default IP address for all products shipped is 169.254.127.1 with subnet mask 255.255.0.0
QUICK-START: CONFIGURING YOUR PC WITH SYSTEM ARCHITECT™ SOFTWARE:
1)   Install System Architect software on the Microsoft Windows 2000 or XP-equipped computer that will
control/monitor the HiQnet™ - compliant products.
2)   Note that System Architect will only display graphics correctly when the Windows PC display is set to
standard, small font size. If Windows is set to “large” fonts, then the displays within System Architect may
become unreadable. To correct this problem change Windows to the standard font size. (See Appendix B for
details)
3)   Note that System Architect will only display graphics correctly when the Windows PC. Regional and
Language settings are set to standard US English language. If Windows is set to any language other than
US English, objects in custom control panels will not display or function properly.  To correct this problem
change Windows to the standard font size. (See Appendix C for details)
4)   If you are using a CobraNet™ - compatible product see Appendix A for special instructions now before
proceeding further.

VERTEC User’s Guide

QUICK-START -- CONNECTING PC TO A JBL HiQNet DEVICE FOR THE FIRST TIME:
If this your first experience connecting a control computer running System Architect to a HiQnet-compliant
JBL product, then this initial test configuration will be useful. It will greatly help to resolve simple networking
issues before you connect to multiple devices or connect to a larger network:
Step 1)   Connect one networked loudspeaker to an unmanaged 100BaseT network switch with a standard
CAT5 cable. Don’t apply AC power to the loudspeaker just yet.
Step 2)   Connect the control computer to the Ethernet switch with a standard CAT5 cable.
Setting up a Simple Isolated Ethernet Network Using DHCP
In this configuration DHCP will automatically assign an IP address to the device on the network and your
computer.  
Step 1)   Open Network Connections on your computer and confirm that DHCP is Enabled.  To do this
click Start, point to Settings, click Control Panel, and then double-click Network Connections. When
your Network Connections Window opens, double click on the Local Area Network icon.  A Local Area
Connections Status window will open. Click on the Properties button and the Local Area Connection
Properties window open.  Next scroll through the items window, select the Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) item
and click on the Properties button.  The Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) Properties window will open.  Select the
“Obtain an IP address automatically” option.  Click OK through all your open network windows to close
them.  
Step 2)   Apply power to your JBL DrivePack and wait for it to boot up.  With DHCP enabled, the DrivePack
and your computer should both automatically negotiate an IP Address.  
Step 3)   Launch System Architect.  The DrivePack system should appear in the Venue View within a few
minutes.  
Step 4)   If nothing comes up, you should first check that your System Architect™ application has the
‘Network Active on start-up’ and ‘Auto Populate venue view with detected devices’ boxes checked; these
are found in the Application Button (Q Button) under options.
Step 5)   If Auto Populate is checked and the network is active (look at the network status icon located at
the bottom left corner of the Venue View window) and the devices are still not showing in the Venue View,
select the Readdress Devices wizard in the Tools menu and change the IP address of the devices so they
can be on the same network as your computer.  
Set up with a Static IP address
Step 1)   Go back through Step 1 above, except select “Use the following IP Address:’ option.
Step 2)   Change the TCP/IP address of the control computer to 169.254.1.y and change the subnet mask
set to 255.255.0.0.
Note: The placeholder “y” in the last segment of the IP address represents a number anywhere in the range
of 1 to 254.  The only requirement in your number selection is that no two devices on the same network can
share the same IP address.  Depending upon PC operating system configuration a reboot may be needed
now.
Step 3)   Avoid connecting the switch to any other Ethernet equipment other than the PC and the
loudspeaker just yet. You’re creating a network with only two devices -- the PC and the loudspeaker. This is
useful for a first test as it avoids any additional networking configuration issues.

29

Step 4)   Now launch System Architect in Windows. Once you see the Venue View of System Architect
appear, then proceed as follows.
Step 5)   Verify that the HiQnet™ network is active by observing the Online/Offline status icon located at the
top left of the Venue window.  The icon should indicate a green color and “Go Offline.  If it shows inactive
status, double click on the icon and the network will activate.   
Step 6)   Power up the loudspeaker connected to the network. Recheck the network status and verify that
the HiQnet network is Active.  The loudspeaker will automatically determine an IP address and a HiQnet
Address. This can require up to 2 minutes in some cases. Once completed an Icon in the venue view will
appear representing the JBL Loudspeaker system connected to the network.  
Step 7)   Now double-click on the JBL loudspeaker to see the product specific control panel within System
Architect. From here you can control and change parameters and configuration of the JBL loudspeaker as
required.  
ALTERNATE QUICK-START -- USING SYSTEM ARCHITECT’S READDRESSING WIZARD:
Step 1)   Once you have connected and powered up one DrivePack device to the network, verify that the
HiQnet network is active by observing the Online/Offline status icon located at the top left of the Venue
window.  The icon should indicate a green color and “Go Offline”.  If it shows inactive status, double click on
the icon and the network will activate.  
Step 2)   On the ribbon toolbar of System Architect™, click on Tools and then select Readdress Devices.  
The wizard will open up.  Click on Next to go to the next screen.
Step 3)   The wizard will detect the device on the network and a device icon appears in the wizard window.  
Select it and then click on the Configure button at the bottom of the screen.  
Step 4)   The ‘Configure Node’ window will open.  Uncheck the ‘Use DHCP” button and verify that the
‘Readdress Automatically’ box at the top of the screen is unchecked.  
Step 5)   Exit the wizard by clicking on Finish.  
Step 6)   The JBL loudspeaker system will have appeared in the System Architect Venue view by this time.  
Now double-click on the JBL loudspeaker to see the product-specific device control panel within System
Architect. From here you can control and change parameters and configuration of the JBL loudspeaker as
required.   
WORKING WITH A NETWORK OF MULTIPLE JBL DEVICES:
Network Setup with DHCP
With the computer set to DHCP Enabled, connect devices to the network and apply power to devices one
or two at a time.  The devices should AUTO-IP and populate Venue View as they are discovered by the
network.  If they do not or seem to take too long to come up on the network, go back and use Static IP.  
Static IP
Step 1)   After completing the quick start procedure with one DrivePack device go back and verify that the
host PC’s Static IP address is set to an address in the auto IP range, such as:
IP Address:
169.254.1.Y (Y is a number between 1 and 254)
Subnet Mask:    255.255.0.0  

30

VERTEC User’s Guide

Step 2)   With System Architect running in Windows, power up the remaining loudspeakers connected to
the network one or two at a time.  System Architect will automatically determine an IP address and a HiQnet
Address for each loudspeaker on the network assuming the devices populating the network are new units
(DHCP ENABLED).  This can require up to 2 minutes in some cases. Once completed an Icon in the venue
view will appear representing the JBL Loudspeaker system connected to the network.  
Step 3)   If System Architect fails to recognize network devices within about two minutes, make sure all of
your connections are good and verify IP addressing.   Launch the Readdress Devices wizard and repeat
steps 3 - 4 in the above procedure.   

DISABLE DHCP/AUTO HIQNET ADDRESS IN SYSTEM ARCHITECT™:
Step 1) Click on any previous icons showing in venue view, and press the Delete key.  
Step 2) Select TOOLS->Readdress Devices, click NEXT  
Step 3) The master computer should discover the HiQnet™ products powered up on the network.  If not,
please make sure all of your connections are good and verify IP addressing.  
Step 4) Once the wizard has launched and found devices on the network, select a single component (It will
highlight) - click on the CONFIGURE button located on the bottom of the window.    
Step 5) System Architect will have detected the device, automatically assigned a HiQnet address and
disabled the “Readdress Automatically” function.  You can manually assign a HiQnet address if desired.  
Step 6) Un-check the box labeled “Use DHCP”
Step 7) The IP Address entry box will un-dim.  
Step 8) In the Set Address window, set up a Static IP address—The IP address consists of a set of 4 threedigit numbers separated by a dot and must be unique.  Network wizard will have already assigned an IP
address in the 169.254.X.Y range.  You can start by leaving the IP address assigned by network wizard
or perhaps just change the X (third) number segment value to the same number in all devices.  Start with
an address for example 169.254.1.Y.  Enter the same number sets in the Subnet mask field for all of the
components as well as the master computer. Set the HiQnet address on each device sequentially.  You can
change the IP address to a completely unique range at a later time, for example 126.126.0.Y or 192.168.1.Y
etc.  You may want to create a network system log and write down all of your device IP addresses in your log
for future reference.  
Step 9) Click OK.  The Configure Node window will close.  
Step 10) Repeat the procedure for all remaining devices on the network.

Auto HiQnet Address:  When devices boot up, System Architect software, when configured to do so, will
automatically negotiate and assign a unique HiQnet™  address to each device.  The devices will then keep this
address until there is a conflict at start up or the user manually assigns the device a new address.  
AES/EBU: The digital audio standard frequently called AES/EBU, officially known as AES3, is used for carrying
digital audio signals between various devices. It was developed by the Audio Engineering Society (AES) and the
European Broadcasting Union (EBU) and first published in 1985, later revised in 1992 and 2003. Both AES and
EBU versions of the standard exist. Several different physical connectors are also defined as part of the overall
group of standards.
Auto-IP Address: Devices and computers, if set to use a DHCP server, and a DHCP server is not present on
the network, will automatically negotiate a default IP address in the form of 169.254.xxx.xxx.  This can cause
problems if you have some devices or PC’s set with static IP addresses.  It is possible that addresses manually
assigned to Static IP devices may intentionally fall outside of the default Auto-IP address range and may now
be on a separate subnet and will no longer be able to communicate with devices in the Auto-IP address range.  
However, if there isn’t a DHCP server on the network, then having all devices/PC’s using an Auto-IP address will
not cause any problems.  In summary: all devices and PC’s on a network will need to exist on the same subnet,
whatever that may be.  
DHCP: (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) An established Ethernet protocol for assigning IP addresses
automatically to physical hardware devices. A DHCP server must be present on the network to provide an
IP address to each device when power is applied.  With dynamic (DHCP) addressing, a device might have a
different IP address every time it connects to the network.  If a DHCP Server is not installed on the network, a
computer will place a default network ID (See Auto-IP Address) into the TCP/IP address and Subnet Mask.  
HiQNet: The networking protocol established by Harman Professional to provide communication between
products for the purposes of:  control, monitoring, and providing interaction between products. The protocol
is independent of the physical connection type. Typical physical connections include: Ethernet, USB, RS232,
RS422, Infrared, and others. For info go to http://www.harmanpro.com/hiqnet/
HiQnet Address: The HiQnet™ address is a unique number that allows System Architect software, the PC in
use, and the connected devices, to keep track of each other on the network.  The HiQnet address is completely
independent of Ethernet IP addresses.  
IP Address: (Internet Protocol address) Identifier for a computer or device on a TCP/IP network. Each device
in a network has its own identifying IP address. Example: 169.254.17.42.  Networks using the TCP/IP protocol
route messages based on the destination’s IP address. An IP address is made of four numbers separated
by periods. Each number can be zero to 255.  The last number can never be a zero or 255.  For example,
126.126.17.1 could be an IP address.  126.126.17.0 would not be a valid IP address.  
Subnet Mask (short for Subnetwork Mask):  Large networks may require subdivision into smaller groups
or subnets to keep the network more manageable.  A subnet is a portion of a network that shares a common
address component. On TCP/IP networks, subnets are defined as all devices whose IP addresses have the
same prefix.
For example, all devices with IP addresses that start with 126.126.126. would be part of the same subnet.  IP
networks are divided using a subnet mask.  A mask is a filter that selectively includes or excludes certain values.  
Values that do not conform to the mask are not visible to each other.  A mask is used to determine what subnet
an IP address belongs to.  An IP address has two components, the network address and the host address.  
Like IP addresses, a subnet mask contains four bytes (32 bits) and is often written using the same “dotteddecimal” notation.  A very common default subnet mask for example is 255.255.0.0  A subnet mask neither
works like an IP address, nor does it exist independently from them.  Instead, subnet masks accompany an IP
address and the two values work together. Applying the subnet mask to an IP address splits the address into
two parts, an “extended network address” and a host address.  The subnet mask is the network address plus
the bits reserved for identifying the subnetwork.   Dividing a network into subnets is useful for both security and
performance reasons.  
System Architect: A software application for use on Windows PC’s that provides control of HiQnet compliant
products. System Architect integrates HiQnet-compliant products within a unified control application program.
This program allows grouping, cutting and pasting of settings, custom control panels, and more. It integrates
products from Harman Professional brands using the HiQnet protocol.

Appendix A: Configuring CobraNet
General
CobraNet is a licensed technology developed by Peak Audio, Inc. consisting of proprietary communications
protocol, firmware and hardware. It allows reliable, deterministic (i.e. real-time) transmission of high quality
(i.e. un-compressed) digital audio over standard 100Base-T Fast-Ethernet network. CobraNet will also operate on faster versions of Ethernet (e.g. Giga-bit and 10Giga-bit).  
A CobraNet system is comprised of CobraNet devices and the Ethernet network that connects them. PCs or
other system controllers may also be connected to the network for setup but are not required for operation.
Ethernet
Ethernet is a hardware and signaling specification developed by Xerox in 1970 for data networking. The IEEE
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers) standardized the technology in the IEEE  802.3 standard
and its variants.  
With over 50 million nodes installed, Ethernet is easily the most dominant data networking technology in use
today. It is carried over inexpensive CAT-5 UTP cables or fiber. Typical Ethernet cabling limitations are: 100
meters over CAT-5 copper cable, 2 kilometers over multimode fiber.
The CobraNet™ Device
Each CobraNet device embeds specialized hardware and firmware.  The hardware includes a standard
100MB Fast-Ethernet interface along with custom high-speed DSP chips and clock circuitry. The DSP and
its embedded software are used to encode and decode the Ethernet network messages using the proprietary protocol. The clock circuitry is used to accurately decode the system master clock timing needed for
high-quality real-time audio delivery.
Audio Specs
All CobraNet devices operate at a fixed sample rate of 48kHz. The audio data may be transmitted at 16, 20
or 24 bit data as desired.  For reliable operation, each CobraNet device must implement transmit and receive
buffering. This buffering is fixed at 256 samples and results in a minimum audio network latency of 5.333ms.
(256 samples at 1/48kHz per sample)  
Bundles and Audio Channels
Routing of digital audio between CobraNet devices is accomplished through Bundles. A Bundle is the name
given to the proprietary encoded message (a.k.a. “packet”) transmitted between CobraNet devices that include multiple channels of digital audio. Each CobraNet device can transmit and receive up to four Bundles.
Each Bundle includes up to 8 Audio Channels. Therefore, each device is capable of transmitting and receiving up to 32 Audio Channels to and from the network.  
Bundles can be transmitted using Ethernet multicast or Ethernet unicast methods. Multicast Bundles are
sent to all CobraNet devices on the network, while unicast Bundles are sent to one and only one CobraNet
device. Since each device can send and receive four Bundles, great flexibility is allowed in the routing of
audio over the network. Up to 8 multicast Bundles (64 Audio Channels) can be transmitted on a simple repeater based Ethernet network. Up to 4 multicast Bundles (32 Audio Channels) along with up to 421 unicast
Bundles (>3000 Audio Channels) can be transmitted simultaneously on a full-duplex switch-based CobraNet
network.  
Assignment of Bundles is accomplished through the selection of a Bundle number.  Bundles between 1-255
are always multicast, while Bundles between 256 - 65,279 are unicast. Bundle assignments must not be
duplicated.  Only one CobraNet transmitter is allowed per bundle.  
The Conductor
On a CobraNet network, the Conductor coordinates transmission of audio packets throughout the entire
network.  When two or more CobraNet devices are interconnected properly, one of them will be selected the
Conductor based on their respective Conductor.

VERTEC User’s Guide

Priority  
A higher Conductor Priority over-rides a lower priority.  If an operating Conductor is removed from the network for any reason (e.g. power turned off), the remaining devices again arbitrate and select a new Conductor.  All CobraNet devices have the capacity to serve as the Conductor.
The Conductor periodically broadcasts a well-defined message to all CobraNet™ devices. This allows each
CobraNet device to recover the master clock timing information needed for high quality audio delivery.  
The Conductor also recognizes each CobraNet device on the network and assumes the responsibility to
assign transmitter positions and priorities for each Bundle of each CobraNet device. Like a conductor of an
orchestra, the Conductor signals the beginning of a synchronous transmission cycle, and then each device
sends its Bundle(s) in lock step.  
Primary and Secondary Network Ports (Dualink)
Some CobraNet devices implement two network connections. This provides for added reliability in the event
of problems with network hardware or cabling. If the primary connection is lost, the secondary connection
can be enabled using an entirely separate network hardware path in less than a few seconds.
Repeater Networks
CobraNet can operate on simple repeater-based networks and more complex switch-based networks.
Repeater networks use low-cost Ethernet hubs. On a repeater-based network, all packets are broadcast to
all connected nodes. CobraNet multi-cast and unicast Bundles can be assigned but because of the simpler
repeater-type hubs, even unicast transmissions are broadcast to all nodes.  Therefore, a maximum of 8 fullloaded Bundles (64 audio channels) are allowed on the entire network.  More Bundles may be allowed if they
are loaded with less than the full eight audio channels. There is no limit to the number of active receivers on
a repeater network.  Generally, a repeater based CobraNet network must be dedicated to CobraNet traffic
only to guarantee reliable transmission of audio packets.
See Tested Ethernet Products on the Peak Audio website for a list of recommended Ethernet repeaters.    
http://www.peakaudio.com/CobraNet/tested_Ethernet.html
Switched Networks
Larger CobraNet networks can be built using Ethernet switches.  Ethernet switching technology is more sophisticated than hubs.  Switches do not simply broadcast each and every packet to all nodes.  Instead, they
examine the destination address of each packet received on each port, and then “switch” that data to the
identified recipient. CobraNet unicast Bundles exploit this feature to allow more overall network traffic.  In effect each port has 100MB of bandwidth and the overall network can be as large as 100MB times the number
of ports on the network. Multicast Bundles are allowed on a switched network, but they must be used with
care.  Peak recommends that not more than four multicast Bundles be used in a switched CobraNet network.
Another enhancement available with most new Ethernet switches is “full-duplex” links. A full-duplex link allows simultaneous send and receive over the same Ethernet connection. This enables a CobraNet device to
simultaneously send and receive up to 64 channels per node for a total of 128 channels.
The combination of switching and full-duplex technologies in switched CobraNet networks allows up to 128
channels per 100Mbit Ethernet link and greater than 3000 individual audio channels. There is no limit to the
number of active receivers on a switched CobraNet network. Switched networks also eliminate the potential
for Ethernet collisions. This allows general PC network traffic and CobraNet traffic to coexist on the same
network.  See Tested Ethernet Products on the Peak Audio website for a list of recommended Ethernet
switches.  http://www.peakaudio.com/CobraNet/tested_Ethernet.html
