Frequently Asked Questions - Ingenia IG3T DB Technologies

How to connect two Ingenia IG3T loudspeakers in a column?
Use the LP-IG connection brackets (optional). Mount the two loudspeakers on top of each other, with the upper one inverted. The infrared ports on the handles automatically detect the configuration. Then perform the System Check in the BUILD SYSTEM menu so that the DSP identifies them and activates digital steering.
How to adjust the acoustic coverage with two loudspeakers?
Once the two loudspeakers are identified, go to the SYSTEM COVERAGE menu. You can choose from several presets (UP 10°, UP 5°, FAR 0°, DOWN 5°, etc.) to tilt the audio beam up or down according to the installation.
What to do if the loudspeaker does not turn on?
Check that the Neutrik powerCON TRUE1 power cable is properly inserted. Make sure the mains outlet is powered. If you are in a 100-120V region, check that the fuse has been replaced by the supplied T10A (the original fuse is for 220-240V).
How to update the firmware of the IG3T?
Download the USB BURNER MANAGER software and the latest firmware .zip file from the DB Technologies website. Connect a mini-USB type B cable to the SERVICE DATA port. Launch the software, open the firmware file, then click UPDATE. After the update, saved settings may be lost.
How to save my custom settings?
Go to the SAVE/LOAD SYSTEM menu. Select a memory location (1 to 5), then choose SAVE. You can assign an alphanumeric name (up to 14 characters). To recall a setting, select the location and choose RECALL.
What is the maximum power of the amplifier?
The Digipro G3 amplifier delivers 900 W RMS in Class D, with a peak power of 1800 W. It is passively cooled (no fan).
How to install the loudspeaker on a subwoofer?
Use the optional GSA-IG stand to mount the IG3T on a subwoofer. In the BUILD SYSTEM > SYSTEM STRUCTURE menu, indicate the number of subwoofers. Then the SUBWOOFER MATCHING menu allows you to select the subwoofer model and adjust the crossover frequency (70-120 Hz).

CHARACTERISTICS OF THE AMPLIFICATION AND CONTROL SECTION

The D-class latest generation digital amplifier DIGIPRO G3 is the core of IG3T and can provide a sound power of 900 W RMS. Thanks to a switching power supply section featuring a particularly efficient auto-range function, the system is quiet, as it requires no active cooling system. The system is controlled by a powerful DSP, allowing to define different parameters, as well as to automatically manage the communication between the modules, in case of configuration with 2 stacked speakers. In the latter case, the DSP individually controls the acoustic components, to obtain a configurable directional sound focus (digital steering).

DB Technologies Ingenia IG3T - CHARACTERISTICS OF THE AMPLIFICATION AND CONTROL SECTION - 1

ATTENTION!

  • Protect the module from humidity.
  • Never try to open the amplifier.
  • In case of malfunction, immediately cut off the power supply, by disconnecting the module from the mains, then contact an authorised repairman.

DB Technologies Ingenia IG3T - ACCESSING THE MENUS - 2

  • Once manually performed, the settings remain stored even after the speaker has been switched off.
  • After approximately one minute has elapsed since the last selection or confirmation, the system returns to the initial screen (IG3T level/gain). The user can also return to the initial screen from any point, in 2 ways:

a. by selecting and confirming, when existing in a sub-menu, the symbol b. by holding the push rotary encoder pressed for a few seconds

DB Technologies Ingenia IG3T - ACCESSING THE MENUS - 3

- If the speakers are 2 and installed in a stacked configuration, the system detects them and automatically assigns the control of both to the amplifier which is being operated. This allows to perform an adjustment that will apply and can be stored for the whole system, irrespective of the rotary that is being operated (mirroring OLED).

At switch-on, the IG3T display shows the initial screen, indicating the GAIN and the signal level, simulating a VU METER.

  3. select and confirm → NEXT to switch to the next menu; select and confirm → BACK to return to the SYSTEM CHECK sub-menu

INGENIA IG3T Cod. 420120239 REV. 1.1

SYSTEM TYPE

The system types available when using the IG3T are 2:

  • Stacked
  • Flown

DB Technologies Ingenia IG3T - SYSTEM TYPE - 1

text_image System Type BACK Stacked T Flown NEXT

In the “Stacked” configuration an IG3T speaker rests on a stand, or one or 2 speakers rest on a subwoofer (see chapter INSTALLATION EXAMPLES); in the “Flown” configuration, instead, one or two IG3T speakers are hanging. After accessing the SYSTEM TYPE menu, then:

- Select and confirm the desired mode, choosing between “Stacked” and “Flown”; select and confirm → NEXT to access the next screen (select and confirm → BACK to return to the previous one). Now, if the system has previously detected the presence of 2 speakers, it will switch to the SYSTEM COVERAGE menu, and if the presence of a woofer has been selected in the previous SYSTEM STRUCTURE sub-menu, it will then switch to the SUBWOOFER MATCHING menu; should that not be the case (Speakers 1, Subwoofer 0) the next screen will be the initial one, and the procedure will end.

DB Technologies Ingenia IG3T - SYSTEM TYPE - 2

ATTENTION!

  • Never install the speaker directly resting on the ground, but always use the optional GSA-IG.
  • When "Stacked" on a tripod stand, the INGENIA IG3T cannot be mounted in the configuration with 2 speakers stacked, but only in a single speaker configuration, for safety reasons.

SAVE/LOAD SYSTEM MENU

This menu allows to save and then recall the system usage configurations. Even though at switch-off the IG3T retains all the information about the latest settings, it may be useful to have at one's disposal, for different contexts, a previously saved batch of appropriate settings, and to be able to quickly reload them. To this purpose, IG3T allows to save and rename 5 batches of settings, using the "SAVE" function, and to recall them using the "RECALL" function. Should you later have to edit the settings stored in one of the memory slots, you can later overwrite the previously saved slots.

  1. Select and confirm the number of one of the memory slots, from 1 to 5,
  2. Select and confirm "SAVE".

  3. Assign a title to the slot. You can only use an alphanumeric title consisting of up to 14 letters/digits. Select and confirm one letter at a time next to the slot number. To end the title just confirm (without selecting) the blank space character (_).

  4. Press "OK" at the next screen

  5. The system then saves the settings in the slot number with the chosen title

To recall a batch of settings, loading it into the system:

  1. Select and confirm the desired memory slot
  2. Select and confirm "RECALL".
  3. Press "OK" at the next screen
  4. The system has loaded the settings associated with the desired memory slot and has returned to the main screen

To overwrite a previous batch of settings with a new one just select a pre-existing slot, then select and confirm "OK" in the overwrite confirmation screen.

ACOUSTIC CORRECTION MENU

In various cases it may be useful to perform a differentiated equalisation of the speaker output signal. The DSP installed in the IG3T also manages this option.

To this purpose access the ACOUSTIC CORRECTION menu and:

  1. Select and confirm the frequency band to which the correction must be applied. You can operate on 3 bands:

A. LF - Low Frequency, with +3dB - 6 dB correction and 0.5 dB resolution

B. MF - Medium Frequency, with +0 dB - 6 dB correction and 0.5 dB resolution

C. HF - High Frequency, with +3 dB - 6dB and 0.5 dB resolution

  1. Select and confirm the desired correction level
  2. If the operation needs to be repeated for other bands return to point 1., otherwise select the home symbol and return to the main menu selection

- The acoustic correction can be used to improve intelligibility or attenuate frequencies which are predominant. It does not replace a proper speaker arrangement, which must be assessed taking into account the acoustic characteristics of the room or of the outdoor environment.

INGENIA IG3T Cod. 420120239 REV. 1.1

STAGE ALIGNMENT MENU

In a live scenario with different sources of amplification, like guitar amplifiers on the stage, or natural sound sources like a battery, you can virtually “align” the IG3T speakers, specifying the distance of the sources in question, in metres or feet. This will allow to obtain a single acoustic wavefront without any delays, in all the live scenarios where this is required. The DSP will automatically delay the IG3T signal output, increasing the performance effectiveness. To this purpose, after accessing the STAGE ALIGNMENT menu:

  1. Select and confirm the "DISTANCE" field
  2. Select and confirm the desired distance value, with a range of 0-15 m and a resolution of 20 cm.
  3. Return to the initial screen by selecting the "HOME" symbol

DB Technologies Ingenia IG3T - STAGE ALIGNMENT MENU - 1

Stage Alignment Menu

SYSTEM DELAY MENU

If the IG3T speakers are used in environments requiring multiple amplification stages replicated at different distances - for example when they need to cover a particularly wide and long indoor environment, with various sound obstacles, the signal output by the speaker can be appropriately delayed, to ensure that the listener only perceives a single apparent wavefront, at any point in the room. In this case an equivalent setting in terms of time/distance can be useful.

To this purpose, after accessing the SYSTEM DELAY menu:

  1. Select and confirm the "DELAY" field
  2. Select and confirm the desired delay value, with a range of 0-126 ms in terms of time or of 0-43.7 m / 0-143.4 ft (feet) in terms of distance
  3. Return to the initial screen by selecting the "HOME" symbol

MICROPHONE SETTING MENU

IG3T allows the input of a microphone with XLR connector. When using this source, it may be useful to apply a filtering to the signal to cut any unwanted frequencies (by a high-pass filter with adjustable cut frequency). Or it may be necessary to intervene (by a notch or band-stop filter with selectable band centre) to prevent any feedback (or Larsen effect). To perform one of these settings, or both of them, after accessing the MICROPHONE SETTING menu:

  1. Select and confirm HP filter (high-pass filter)
  2. Select and confirm the value of the high-pass filter cut frequency, with a range of 50 Hz – 200 Hz and a resolution of 10 Hz (select the "None" value if you wish to disable the filter)
  3. Select and confirm "Antifeedback" (anti-feedback or anti-Larsen effect filter)
  4. Select and confirm the value of the band centre frequency, with a range of 260 Hz – 15000 Hz and a resolution of 10 Hz (select the "None" value if you wish to disable the filter)
  5. Return to the initial screen by selecting the "HOME" symbol

SYSTEM COVERAGE MENU

For information about the functions contained in this menu, only displayed if during SYSTEM CHECK the system has automatically detected 2 speakers, also refer to paragraph “DIGITAL STEERING” in the “INSTALLATION EXAMPLES” section. This menu allows to modify the beam of the emitted wave and the relevant acoustic coverage when the system has detected 2 speakers properly installed in a stacked configuration and properly recognised by the DSP, on the basis of pre-sets already stored that can be selected and then confirmed:

  • UP 10^ for an installation requiring an acoustic coverage from the bottom up, with mounting on stand or subwoofer and with as much inclination as possible.
  • UP →+5° to orientate the wavefront with a medium upward inclination, with mounting on stand or subwoofer
  • UP 2.5° to get an acoustic coverage with a slight upward inclination.
  • FAR 0^ when you want a coverage getting as far as possible, when speakers are installed in front of the auditorium, at the height of the audience.
  • DOWN 2.5^ to be used to orientate the acoustic coverage slightly downward (for example with the public not very far from the speakers and flown installation).
  • DOWN 5^ for a directivity with a medium downward inclination (for example with public close to the speakers and flown installation).
  • DOWN 10^ to incline the acoustic coverage as downward as possible (public very close to the speakers and flown installation).

4. INSTALLATION EXAMPLES

DB Technologies Ingenia IG3T - INSTALLATION EXAMPLES - 1

  • To use 2 stacked speakers, you need the optional LP-IG accessory. For further information, please refer to the instructions of this accessory.
  • Always check that the handles, allowing the infra-red communication, are not obstructed; never cover them and remove any dust or dirt deposits.
  • No installation other than that shown here is allowed.

INSTALLATION ON STAND

1 INGENIA IG3T can be installed in both stereo and mono configuration on an optional standard tripod stand, with a pole having a diameter of 35 mm. The maximum permissible height between the base of the speaker and the floor is 120 cm (47.25 in).

DB Technologies Ingenia IG3T - INSTALLATION ON STAND - 1

ATTENTION!

  • Use an appropriately sized stand with the central foot forward to ensure proper stability.
  • When "Stacked" on a tripod stand, the INGENIA IG3T cannot be mounted in the configuration with 2 speakers stacked, but only in a single speaker configuration, for safety reasons.

INSTALLATION ON SUBWOOFER

Using the GSA-IG accessory during the installation, you can use the speakers (1 o 2) mounted on subwoofer. This allows to get an extremely compact system, with great output power over the whole range of sound frequencies, installed on the ground. Additional mechanical fixing, or fixing with straps, is required to properly secure the installation. Once the installation is completed, follow the subwoofer configuration instructions in the SUBWOOFER MATCHING section.

INSTALLATION ON SUBWOOFER WITH POLE

It is possible to use a single speaker mounted on 35 mm diameter pole. Additional mechanical fixing, or fixing with straps, is required to properly secure the installation. The maximum permissible height between the base of the speaker and the floor is 120 cm (47.25 in). Once the installation is completed, follow the subwoofer configuration instructions in the SUBWOOFER MATCHING section.

natural_image Two identical vertical cylindrical structures with mounting feet, no text or symbols visible

FLOWN INSTALLATION

Flown configuration provides for the hanging of 1 or 2 IG3T speakers, where the optional accessory DRK-IG allows the use of a shackle, and the combination of DRK-IG with the optional truss adapter TA-IG allows fixing on a specific device, such as a rig. When the speakers are in a flown configuration, it is very advisable to use both power supply and signal linking, to reduce the complexity of connections, as shown in the "FIRST SWITCH-ON" section.

DB Technologies Ingenia IG3T - FLOWN INSTALLATION - 2

ATTENTION!

  • When used outdoors, anchor the speaker to prevent any oscillations due to atmospheric agents and wind.
  • Never use the handles to suspend the speaker!

DIGITAL STEERING

Digital steering is a technology that can be suitably adopted to orientate the acoustic coverage of two stacked speakers, modifying it according to the usage context and installation. The DSP of INGENIA IG3T may operate on each individual transducer (whether compression driver or woofer), with differentiated signal output delays. This way the acoustic wavefront of 2 stacked speakers can be regarded as equivalent to that of a single angled speaker, as shown in the figure. In the setup stage, when it automatically detects the presence of 2 speakers through the infra-red ports installed on the handles, IG3T allows to modify the acoustic coverage through a specific menu, SYSTEM COVERAGE (not displayed if the speaker is in a single configuration):
