1.0 Introduction
The XP series is a digital loudspeaker management system designed for
the touring or fixed sound installation markets. The absolute latest in
available technology is utilized with 40-bit floating point processors and high
performance 24-bit Analog Converters. The high-bit DSP prevents noise
and distortion induced by truncation errors of the commonly used 24-bit
fixed-point devices. A complete set of parameters include I/O levels, delay,
polarity, 8 bands of EQ per channel, 31 bands of GEQ per input, multiple
crossover selections and full function limiters. Precise frequency control is
achieved with its 1 Hz resolution. Inputs and outputs can be routed in
multiple configurations to meet any requirement. The XP series can be
controlled or configured in real time on the front panel or with the intuitive
PC XConsole GUI accessed via the RS-232, USB or Ethernet interface.
Software upgrade for CPU and DSP via PC keeps the device current with
newly developed algorithms and functions once available. Multiple setup
storage and system security complete this professional package.

1. USB – a standard Type B USB connector. Device driver from the

provided software CD must be installed prior to usage.

2. RS232 – a standard female DB9 socket. A straight through cable is

required for PC connection.

3. Mute (Channel Menu) Buttons – Mute or un-mute input and output

channels. When an input channel is muted, a red LED will come on for
indication.

When the <<Menu or Menu>> key is held down, the Mute Buttons
selects the corresponding channel for the LCD menu display and is
acknowledged by a green LED below the button. The last modified menu
will be displayed on the LCD. Multiple channels can be linked or
unlinked by pushing the desired channels. This eases programming for
same parameters across multiple channels. Multiple Inputs can be linked
together and multiple outputs can be linked together. Inputs and Outputs
are linked separately.

4. Channel Menu LED – Indicates the activated channels for data

modification.

5. Peak Level LED – Indicates the current peak level of the Signal:

XP Series User's manual - Page 7

 Signal, -12dB, -6dB, -3dB, Over/Limit. The Input Limit LED references to
the device's maximum headroom. The Output Limit LED references to
the threshold of the output limiter.

6. LCD – Shows all the necessary information to control the unit.

7. Menu Buttons – There are 6 menu keys: <<Menu (Menu Down),

Menu>> (Menu Up), <<Cursor (Cursor Down), Cursor>> (Cursor Up),
Enter/Sys, Exit. The functions of each key is explained below:

<<Menu: Go to previous menu screen. Holding this button

down while pressing Mute key will go to the specify
channel menu.

Menu>>: Go to next menu screen. Holding this button down

while pressing Mute key will go to the specify
channel menu.

<<Cursor: Go to previous cursor in the menu screen.

Cursor>>: Go to next cursor in the menu screen.

Enter/Sys: Enter is used only in the System Menu to proceed

with selected actions.
Sys enters the System Menu from the main menu.

Exit: Exit to the Main Menu.

8. Rotary Thumb Wheel – Changes parameter data values. The wheel

has travel velocity sensing which ease large incremental data
modifications. For modifying delay and frequency (1 Hz resolution),
pressing the Enter/Sys key simultaneously will increment/decrement the
data value by 100X.

1. Main Power – Connects via a standard IEC socket. A compatible power

cord is supplied with the unit. The voltage input is 90-240VAC, 50-60Hz.

2. Main Fuse – T2.5A-250V. Slow blow type.

3. Power switch – Controls power On/Off.

4. Ethernet – RJ45 connector for Ethernet control. The device should be

connected to a router/switch/hub via a straight through CAT-5 cable.

5. Analog Inputs and Outputs – Separate 3-pin connectors2 are provided

for each audio input and output. The device's output stage employs the
balanced impedance topology. All I/O connectors have pin 1 as ground
(shield), pin 2 as + and pin 3 as -.

5.0 Powering Up the Device

• After powering up the unit, the following initialization screen is displayed

on the LCD:

** XILICA XP **
XP-4080 v9.00B

• The initialization process takes several seconds and during that period
the unit boots and displays the device model and firmware version.

• After the initialization process is finished the XP displays its main screen:

** XILICA XP **
P01*

• The screen shows the current program number and program name
assigned to the unit. If the program number ends with *, it means that no
program is assigned, the last data before previous power down is
recalled instead.

• Now the XP is ready to operate.

6.0 Operating the Channel Menus

Channel Linking – While holding down the <<Menu or Menu>>, more than
1 channel from the same group (Input or Output group) can be selected to
link the channels together. The green LEDs below the Mute buttons are lit
for the linked channels. Any modification of the data for the selected
channel will be applied to the linked channels as well. To cancel the linking,
simply deselect the desired channel while the <<Menu or Menu>> key is
still pressed, or just press the Exit key to deselect all channels.

9.0 PC Control Software
The XP series is shipped with a special PC Graphic User Interface (GUI)
application - XConsole. XConsole gives the user an option to control the
unit from a remote PC. The GUI application makes it much easier to control
and monitor the device, allowing the user to get the whole picture on one
screen. Programs can be recalled and stored from/to PC’s hard drive, thus
expanding the storage to become virtually limitless.

XConsole can be connected to the XP series via RS232, USB or Ethernet.

USB requires the installation of additional driver. The user is given an
option to install it during the installation of XConsole, and if the user did not
install it at that time, they may choose to do so by running the USB driver
installer from the provided software.6

The latest version of XConsole and USB driver are available at www.xilica.com.

11.0 Warranty

The XP Series is warranted covering materials and workmanship for a

period of five (5) years, as determined by the date of retail purchase
(according to the sales receipt from an authorized dealer) or the date of
manufacture if the sales receipt is not available (according to the serial
number). This warranty applies to the product; therefore, the remainder of
the warranty period will be automatically transferred to any subsequent
owner. This warranty applies only to failure of a Xilica product caused by
defects in materials and workmanship during the stated warranty period. It
does not apply to a unit that has been subjected to abuse, accident,
modification, improper handling/installation, or repairs made without factory
authorization or by anyone other than authorized Xilica Field Service
Stations. This warranty is void if the serial number has been defaced,
altered or removed. Products covered by this warranty will be repaired or
replaced at the option of Xilica, without charge for materials or labor,
provided all the terms of this warranty have been met.

For factory service, please call or email for a Return Authorization (R/A)
number before shipping. If the product is shipped, the following information
must be included in the package:
1. Owner’s complete name, daytime phone number, return street address
and return authorization number.
2. The serial number of the product being returned and a copy of the retail
sales receipt, if possible.
3. A complete description of the problem(s) experienced, including a brief
description of how the equipment is being used and other equipments
involved.
