General Information
IC Live line array systems were developed specifically for live event productions. They are ideally suited for a wide range of event types
and sizes, are easy to transport and setup, and deliver superior sound in a broad spectrum of environments.
Thanks to digitally controlled beam steering they deliver narrow vertical beams of sonic energy that can be directed onto the audience in-
stead of reverberating off the walls and ceilings. Horizontal coverage is a consistent 150oeliminating the need for left and right setups in
most venues. Preset configurations for different size and shape venues reduce setup time to a minimum.
This guide was written to assist you in setting up and operating IC Live systems.

Common Setups
ICL-R digitally steered line arrays and IC215S-R subwoofers
were designed to work together, both acoustically and mechani-
cally with the subwoofer supplying both the extra bass impact
needed by most musical productions and a solid mounting base
for the tall slender columns. Together, the two building blocks
form 6 useful configurations.
The unique interlocking hardware system with Quik-Release pins
joins the line array and the subwoofer together into a rigid as-
sembly, allowing the subwoofers to be used as mounting bases
for the columns. When used as a mounting base, the sub-
woofers also raise the line array above the floor.
ICL-R arrays perform best when their acoustic center, the point
of origination for the narrow acoustic beam, is several feet above
the ear level of the audience. If it’s placed lower, too much of the
sonic beam is absorbed by the first row of the audience and
never reaches those in the rear. If it’s placed much higher, the
narrow vertical beam tends to” light up” the center of the audi-
ence and drop off in both the front and rear.
This puts the ideal height for the bottom of an ICL-R array at
roughly four feet above the floor for a seated audience.
An IC215S-R standing on end is 4’ tall making the combination
of an ICL-R array mounted on top of a standing IC215S-R sub-
woofer an ideal arrangement for many setups.
An IC215S-R subwoofer laid on its side and a single ICL-R array
work well when space is available for them on the stage. Mount-
ing two stacked arrays on a single subwoofer is not recom-
mended, as the assembly is unstable.
Dual subwoofer assemblies combined with either a single ICL-R
array or with two stacked ICL-R arrays are two other popular
configurations.The dual subwoofers provide the desired mount-
ing height for the array(s) and enough bass for even the most
demanding musical events.
Stacked ICL-R arrays provide tighter beam control than a single
ICL-R and a much higher output level. They are especially desir-
able in reverberant rooms where tight control of the beam is
needed to deliver clear speech over a considerable distance.
When only speech is involved and the bass support provided by
the subwoofers is not needed, single or stacked ICL-R arrays
are an ideal solution. They can be attached to the truss work
with Chesebrough clamps or by removing the array’s rear
pole/handle and using the pole clamps to secure the array to the
truss.
ICL-R arrays are also equipped with AeroQuip Fly-Track, so they
can also be easily flown from the truss with industry standard
AeroQuip hardware.

Assembly
IC Live is a building block system designed for easy trans-
portation, setup and teardown. It provides for 6 system
configurations from two basic modules, the ICL-R array
module and the IC215S-R subwoofer.
Setup couldn’t be easier. To create a stacked array from
two ICL-R modules:
1. Stand the two column arrays side by side and remove
the two joining bars and their short Quik Release pins from
the modules.
2. Place one of the modules on top of the other one. Note
that the top module should be turned upside down so the
horn sections of the two modules are together.
3. Align the two modules and then remove the Quik Re-
lease pin from the upper module’s rear cylinder to allow its
inner sleeve to drop down into the lower module’s rear
cylinder.
4. Then re-insert the Quik Release pin into the upper mod-
ule’s cylinder to lock the inner sleeve in place.

Assembly (continued)
5. Slide the two joining bars
into the channels as shown.
Master / Slave Settings
The next step is to electrically link the modules together and verify the
Master/Slave assignment is correct The bottom module always func-
tions as the Master and the upper modules as Slaves. The module
directly above the Master module is identified as Slave 1 and the mod-
ule above it as Slave 2. .All incoming signal and AC power connec-
tions should be made to the Master module.
Plug one end of the short CAT5e linking cable into the lower intercon-
nect socket on the Master (lower) module and the other end into the
upper socket on the upper module. Then plug one end of the short AC
power cable into the looping power socket on the lower module and
the other end into the power socket on the upper module. Follow the
same procedure to connect a third module, if one is provided.
The next step is to set the two dip switches that identify each module.
Set the Master switches first; The graphic directly below the two dip
switches shows the proper setting for a Master module (both switches
in the down position).
Then set the Slave module(s) dip switches following the settings
shown in the graphic. Note that the Slave #3 switch is for possible
future use.
Note: If you connected power to the array before setting the dip
switches, you will need to turn it off or disconnect it at the source and
then reconnect it before the dip switch settings will take effect. When
properly set the digital readouts will both read 20 in a dual array and
30 in a three module array.
6. Lock the joining bars into
place with the short Quik
Release pins to complete the
physical assembly.
Note: If you are assembling a “triple stack”, follow the same procedure to place the third module on top of the second module with one ex-
ception. The woofer sections of the second and third modules should be joined together. If in doubt, refer to page 55 for proper module ori-
entation.
The procedure for mounting an ICL-R array onto an IC215S-R subwoofer is the same. The only difference is the the array’s rear cylinder
sleeve drops into the socket on either the top or the end of the subwoofer. When mounting a stack (two ICL-R arrays) on top of one or two
subwoofers, it is best to first mount the lower line array module onto the subwoofer and then attach the top line array. It’s easier and safer.
Do not attempt to mount a stacked ICL-R array onto a subwoofer standing vertically. The resulting assembly is unstable.

Wiring Diagrams For Basic Setups
IC Live arrays were developed for a wide range of different size and types of venues, including even large multi-array events. They include
RHAON, the Renkus-Heinz Audio Operations Network, which provides operational control and supervision of multiple arrays from a re-
motely located computer and multi-channel digital audio distribution.
When remote computer supervision and control is not needed, IC Live arrays can be treated just like any other self-powered loudspeaker.
Simply connect an analog audio signal, plug in the power, make sure the correct Preset is selected and adjust the level. See drawings
below.

Notice that no Ethernet switch is needed in single array setups. Instead, only a simple Ethernet Crossover cable is required.
An Ethernet switch needed only when there are two or more devices, such as an array and a subwoofer. A stacked array is treated as a
single device since it performs as one even though it has two modules.
Satisfactory 100 aseT Ethernet switches of many sizes (output ports) are available from a number of sources. Unmanaged switches are
adequate for most applications. Managed switches are not required.
Systems using CobraNet digital audio distribution require either a suitable analog to CobraNet converter or a mixing console with a Co-
braNet output. Suitable analog to CobraNet converters are available from a number of sources, such as i-Amp, Peavey and others. The
converter’s output would plug into one of the Ethernet switch ports.

Notice that on the ICL-R the Analog and AES/E U inputs share common input connectors. The AES/E U Input Selector switches the
amplifier between Analog and AES/E U input modes. On the IC215S-R, the inputs are separate.
Important: If you are working with a stacked array and one or two subwoofers, make sure your power source (power strip) is
adequate to handle the power drain. A stacked array will draw up to 13 Amps at 120 Volts and each IC215S-R needs a 15 Amp
source.
