INTRODUCTION TO RHAON

Your digitally controlled, steerable Iconyx IC Squared loudspeaker is RHAON Empowered.

RHAON (“rayon”), the Renkus-Heinz Audio Operations Network, is the rst practical system to combine digital audio distribution with

precise control and supervision of self-powered loudspeakers. RHAON uses standard Ethernet hardware, advanced CobraNet technology

and on-board DSP (digital signal processing) to turn self-powered Renkus-Heinz loudspeakers from “black boxes” into “smart boxes” that

can respond to user input in real time.

General Information

Your RHAON-Empowered Loudspeaker’s amplier stores all onboard DSP settings, including the input source selection, in non-volatile

memory. Analog Input 1 has been pre-selected at the factory so you can use the loudspeaker as an ordinary self-powered loudspeaker.

Just connect a line level audio signal to Analog Input 1, connect the AC power and turn the loudspeaker on. This input is always available

for testing the loudspeaker and amplier, regardless of the programmed input settings.

You will need a computer with a NIC (Network Interface Card) and Windows-based RHAON software to change the input selection or any

of the other DSP settings. Once your DSP settings are stored in non-volatile memory, the computer can be disconnected from the network.

You will need to connect a computer only when you want to change the settings or when you want to use the supervise feature.

Renkus-Heinz engineering has programmed the onboard DSP to optimize the loudspeaker’s performance and to ensure its safe operation.

Replace the RHAON hardware module only with another unit that has been factory programmed for the same loudspeaker. Contact our

Technical Support Department for details and assistance whenever you have a problem.

Access Control Note

RHAON systems feature several levels of password-protected access control to prevent inadvertent or unauthorized changes of the control

settings. Even when you connect a computer running RHAON software, you may be denied access to some or all of the Connect and

Control mode functions, depending on how the access control system is congured. For further information on password protection refer to

page 44 of this manual or contact the person responsible for the setup and tuning or commissioning of your system.

Important

If you will be controlling/supervising your RHAON empowered system with a laptop, do not close the laptop’s lid or allow your

laptop to go to sleep (hibernate) during operation. Some CobraNet components may not wake up from hibernation when your

computer awakens. Your system will continue to operate normally until you attempt to change any of the settings. For ex-

ample, until you attempt to change your Presets (they won’t load) or change your EQ settings and you can’t save them to the

loudspeaker(s). Communications between your computer and the loudspeakers on the network have been disrupted by the

malfunctioning CobraNet components. To prevent this set your laptop’s Hibernation / Sleep settings to “Never”.

Note that this does not affect normal operation. Your system will continue to operate normally until you try to change some of

the settings. If this occurs or some other Windows™ event causes the CobraNet components to malfunction, you will need to

either Restart your computer or use the Windows Task Manager to return to normal operation. To use the Task Manager, close

RHAON (and, if running, CobraNet Discovery) and use “Ctrl-Alt-Delete” to open the Task Manager. Select the “Processes” tab

and look for ‘PACNDISCO.EXE’ and ‘PASSBRIDGE.EXE’ (Windows may shorten the names and add ‘~1’). Select them and click

“End Process”. Then re-open RHAON.
