WARNING! – While Linea Focus systems are in operation, the following safety requirements must be strictly adhered to:

System Installation and Set-up

  • To reduce risk of injury, extreme care should be taken when operating the systems near children.
    • Make sure that the systems are firmly secured, especially when used with tripod stands. Avoid sloping or unstable surfaces at all times.
  • Do not use the systems near water (e.g. sinks, swimming pools, or on wet ground).
  • Keep the systems free from moisture, dust, lengthy or intensive exposure to sunlight and vibration.
  • The systems should not be used near ovens, heaters or other heat-producing equipment, nor should they be exposed to extremely low temperatures.
  • The systems should be installed in such a way that optimum ventilation is guaranteed and power outlets are within easy reach.
    • Make sure that the systems cannot be tampered with, or fall over, and that no liquids can get into the ventilation slots thus damaging internal components.
  • Containers with liquid (i.e. glasses) should never be placed on top of the systems

Operation

• Never go below the minimal load impedance of the connected amplifier.
- When used in conjunction with headphones or an external amplifier, these systems can produce volume levels that may potentially damage your hearing. Do not listen at high volume levels for long periods. If you notice any deterioration in your hearing, or whistling in your ears, please consult your doctor.

• While in use, loudspeakers can be damaged through:

a) feedback from microphones
b) continuous high level, high frequency signals from electronic musical instruments
c) distorted, high level signals
d) popping noises that can occur if a device in the set-up is switched on, connected or disconnected while the amplifier is on

Connection and cabling

• Cabling provides the vital link between all the components in an audio installation, from microphones and instruments to loudspeakers. Their function is often underestimated!
- Please ensure that your cabling functions faultlessly.
- When buying cables, please choose tread-resistant cabling with good quality connectors. If required, we can supply appropriate cabling for your loudspeakers.
- Make sure that the distribution for the mains voltage is intact.
- Using isolated or inadequately earthed distributors or power cables is forbidden!
- Care should also be taken when laying cables: For example, an unbalanced cable should not be placed next to a lighting cable, but if necessary it can be laid at right angles in order to minimize the risk of interference.
- All cables should be firmly fixed to the floor using gaffer tape.
- WARNING: No objects should be placed on the system's power cable. Only use intact power cables!
- The system must only be connected to a mains voltage supply that is compatible with the system itself.
- The power cable should be removed if the system is not going to be used for a while. Remove holding the plug, not the actual cable.

• The system should be referred to a qualified service engineer immediately if:

a) The power cable or connector is damaged.
b) A foreign body or liquid has gone into the system interior.
c) The system has been exposed to rain.
d) The system is not working as normal, for instance if significant changes in performance are noticeable.
e) The system has fallen over, or the housing is damaged.

- Do not perform any kind of servicing on the system outside of normal daily maintenance. Any additional servicing must be carried out by suitably qualified service personnel.

- Keep all packaging in case the system needs to be returned for whatever reason. Using the original packaging will minimize any potential risk of damage during transportation.

5. Description

5.1 General

Fohnn Linea Focus LFI-120/220/350/450 loudspeakers are electronically steerable line source speakers. Using software, their beam characteristics can be individually adjusted, presenting a whole a range of possibilities for planners and integrators. As a series, Linea Focus offers both elegant design and first-class sound quality.

Linea Focus has been specially developed to guarantee top quality transmission of both speech and music, especially in acoustically challenging venues. In order to unobtrusively integrate into a range of architectural settings, Linea Focus LFI-120/220/350/450 models are equipped with internal connectors and special features that allow for integration into sound systems for emergency purposes in accordance with DIN EN 60849 / VDE 0828. Additionally, they can be connected to the digital network OPTOCORE via optional input extension for MADI over CAT5 and optical fibre. These loudspeaker models are specially optimized for fixed installation applications.

Our aim has been to bring flexibility and precision to this fixed installation loudspeaker series, enabling specific audience areas to be targeted without the speakers themselves having to be moved. The actual beam steering process results from specially developed Fohnn Audio DSPs. Adjusting the beam to suit room conditions is done using Fohnn Audio Soft control software – an intuitive PC interface that enables both beam simulation and real-time adjustment. Other Fohnn® Audio DSP parameters can also be adjusted using the software.

Both the vertical inclination angle and the vertical width of the “acoustic beam” can be set up and adjusted. This results in highly precise coverage of designated audience areas and the minimizing of unwanted room reflections. Levels of speech intelligibility can therefore be greatly improved, even in difficult acoustic conditions.

Linea Focus series models are respectively equipped with 8 (LFI-120), 16 (LFI-220), 24 (LFI-350), and 32 (LFI-450) high performance 4" speakers. Arranged in a column, these speakers are able to produce a highly directional, low reflection, cylindrical beam. Each of the 8/16/24/32 speakers has its own Class D Direct Path DSP 100 W amplifier.

Electronically controlled Beam Steering

Fohnn Audio DSP technology, in combination with Fohnn Audio Soft, enables the vertical inclination angle and vertical width of the “acoustic beam” to be set up without having to physically move the loudspeaker. This gives planners and system integrators increased scope for unobtrusively integrating Linea Focus systems into different types of room architecture.

Initial scientific research into the beam behaviour of loudspeaker arrays began as far back as the 1920s (Literature: Wolfe, I. & Malter, L., "Directional Radiation of Sound", J. Acoustical Society of America, volume 2, number 2, p. 201 (1930). At the time, the corresponding DSP technology did not of course exist.

When using vertically and closely positioned speakers within a housing (i.e. as found in a line source loudspeaker), the overlapping sound sources make vertical compression possible over a wide frequency range. The longer the line length of the speaker, the more precisely frequencies can be targeted, even lower ones. For this reason, Linea Focus models are available in different lengths.

When every single speaker within the line source system can be electronically adjusted, this also influences the directional characteristics of the system, making it possible to “swivel” the acoustic beam. In order to do this however, a highly complex technology is required, especially if the beam characteristics are to be interactively optimized in real time.

TWO BEAM TECHNOLOGY

Linea Focus LFI-120/220/350/450 models are also able to generate two independent beams, enabling separate coverage of different audience areas. Asymmetric beams can also be generated.

SIDE LOBE FREE TECHNOLOGY

Fohhn's in-house developed algorithm is designed to suppress unwanted side lobes, reducing the potential occurrence of unwanted reflections.

GREEN POWER STAND BY MODE

The energy-saving Green Power Standby Mode uses a power consumption of just 5 W. Maximum consumption otherwise is 400 W (LFI-120), 800 W (LFI-220), 1200 W (LFI-350) and 1600 W (LFI-450).

5.2 Connection Diagram LFI-120/220/350/450

All connectors are located behind a service flap in the LFI-120/220/350/450 housing, which is accessible from the front of the loudspeaker. Cabling can be fed from the rear of the loudspeaker, though an opening in the housing, and connected to the Phoenix terminals from the front, effectively hiding it from view. An internal strain relief guarantees reliable operation.

Image: Beam display (above), Frequency range display (below) and Legend (top right)

7.4.1 Beam display

The upper display area shows the Linea Focus beam behaviour. The view is that of a vertical “slice” through the room, with the Linea Focus loudspeaker on the left hand side. Sound pressure levels in the room are displayed using different colours. The legend at the top right of the display enables you to set up the actual sound pressure level range that will be displayed. A right mouse click on the display will show the SPL at that point.

7.4.2 Frequency range display

The lower display area shows the sound pressure level at a listening height of 1.70 metres, which is indicated by the white line in the upper display. The displayed SPL applies to the selected frequency. Moving the mouse in the upper display turns the frequency range in the lower display red at the position of the mouse pointer.

7.4.3 Legend

The legend at the top right of the display shows the colours that correspond to various sound pressure levels. By dragging on the scale, this colour mapping can be adjusted (see 7.3 above).

7.5 Control elements

On the left hand side are the various control fields for setting up the different Linea Focus beam steering parameters.

7.5.1 Position: Position in the room

X-Pos = distance of the Linea Focus from left border of display (in metres)

Z-Pos = Height of the Linea Focus from the floor (in metres)

7.5.2 Frequency

This shows the frequency for which the simulation is calculated (in Hertz).

7.5.3 Angle

This is the inclination angle of beam to the horizontal (resolution 0,1 degrees.)

7.5.4 Beam: vertical inclination angle

The vertical inclination angle is dependent on the frequency and the length of the loudspeaker. The angle will not be smaller than the set value.

7.5.5 High pass: High pass for delay applications

Low frequencies can be bypassed.

7.5.6 Optimization - FOHHN® SIDE LOBE FREE TECHNOLOGY

Side Lobe Free optimization enables best possible levels of speech intelligibility to be achieved. A special algorithm minimizes the potential effects of side lobes, resulting in fewer reflections from the beam energy straying in different directions.

8. DSP Functions

Please see the Fohnh Audio Soft user instructions.

9. Workflow

9.1 Achieving optimum levels of speech intelligibility

  • Use as few loudspeaker systems as possible. Using more loudspeakers will potentially generate more unwanted reflections.
  • Keep the beam angle as narrow as possible (5°-10°), i.e. do not mount the LFI system too high.
    • Mount LFI models above head height, however.
  • Enter the mounting height in the simulation (Z-axis (metres)).
  • Set a frequency of around 1800 Hz.
  • Optimize settings to give the best possible speech intelligibility (reduce Side Lobes).
  • Optimize the angle of the beam at the listening position (the white line at 1.70 m).
  • Open up the beam (4-10 degrees), so that the front area is well covered. Check the beam characteristics in the simulation at 5000 Hz.
  • Check, by measuring and listening, whether the required area is evenly covered. Lack of appropriate optimization can lead to an audible reduction in high frequencies.

Caution: The simulation uses a lot of computing power. To minimize calculation times, especially when using an older computer, it makes sense to work with lower frequencies and to keep the graphic displays small. DSP data is sent immediately to Linea Focus, even if calculation of the graphic simulation has not been fully completed.

10. Operation and installation

10.1 Operating conditions

  • The system should be operated in an ambient temperature range of 0^ to +40^ .
  • The system can be stored or transported in a temperature range of -10^ to +70^ .
  • If moisture builds up on the loudspeaker or its rear panel during transportation or storage, leave the system to acclimatise for approximately 2 hours before using it.
  • Linea Focus systems are designed for use in dry surroundings with a normal amount of moisture or dust in the air. Never use abrasive chemical liquids or vapours on the loudspeakers.
  • You can use the system in any appropriate environment. However, make sure that the heat dissipation is always controlled by an efficient heat sink behind the lower front grille.

10.2 Correct installation

Installation instructions (commercially available loudspeaker tripod stands, traverses and mounting brackets): To ensure absolute stability, the system must be securely mounted and made safe using the most appropriate method. Please refer to Chapter 12 – Accessories for Linea Focus.

10.3 Avoiding acoustic feedback

When microphones are involved there is a possibility of feedback occurring. This results in a shrill, high-pitched whistling sound from the loudspeakers. To avoid feedback:

  • Make sure that the microphone user stands behind the loudspeaker system where possible, in order to avoid generating feedback.
    • Make sure that the microphone is not pointing directly at the loudspeaker.
  • Always hold hand-held microphones by their shaft. The microphone head should not be covered by the user's hand.
  • If the loudspeaker does begin to feed back, turn the microphone level down until the feedback stops.

10.4 LFI input switching und pilot tone detection

Input 2 is equipped with a priority circuit and pilot tone recognition.

An input level of > -30 dBV means that the signal will be exclusively transmitted via Input 2. An input level of < -30dBV means that the signal will be transmitted via Input 1. From Firmware 2.12.10, the pilot tone keeps Input 2 active. If the pilot tone and audio signal are switched off, the LFI defaults to Input 1 and will only transmit the signal via this input.

The pilot tone can also be activated in Fohhn® Audio Soft. If the pilot tone is missing, the LFI sends a message via the fault message contact.

Pilot tone frequency: 20 kHz, > -30dBV

Input 2 is also equipped with a low pass filter, operational at 16 kHz / -6 dB, in order to filter the pilot tone.

Using Input 2 without the pilot tone is not recommended as this can lead to fluctuations in level.

Input 1 has no pilot tone recognition and no low pass filter.

10.5 System integration in accordance with EN 60849

Important features for system integration as per DIN EN 60849 / VDE 0828 Regulations on Places of Assembly (sound systems for emergency purposes):

• 2 line inputs with balanced transformers (including pilot tone for redundant use)
- fault message contact for analog evaluation of the operating status
• monitoring and intelligent evaluation of all important device parameters

1. Inputs/Outputs (Phoenix terminals):

Input 1 (standard input without pilot tone monitoring):

• standard line input with high-quality, balanced, isolated input transformer

Input 2 (only for applications with pilot tone monitoring):

  • additional line input with pilot tone monitoring and high-quality, balanced, isolated input transformer
  • Present pilot tone can be evaluated.

Use with pilot tone, without redundant wiring:

  • Input 2 has a higher priority level and is permanently active due to constant pilot tone (> -30dBV).
  • In this case input 1 is not in use and remains inactive/muted.

Use with pilot tone and redundant wiring:

  • Identical signals for both inputs are required.
  • Input 2 has a higher priority level and is permanently active due to constant pilot tone (> -30dBV).
  • Input 1 remains muted.
  • If the signal to Input 2 – and thus the pilot tone – is interrupted, the signal from Input 1 will be used automatically.
    • With an identical audio signal on both inputs, an interruption of the signal is not perceived.
  • This switchover happens automatically and cannot be configured.
    • Therefore redundant wiring is possible.

2. Mains connections 100-240 V / 50/60 Hz:

• 2 pin Phoenix terminal
• grounding screwed

3. Fault message contact:

  • pilot tone monitoring
  • relay 2x alter
  • link terminal
    • monitoring of all important device parameters
    • intelligent evaluation

The following faults can be monitored and displayed:

  • faults relating to the internal voltage supply
    • overheating
  • short-circuit of the amplifier outputs
  • shutdown of the amplifier outputs due to earth or voltage problems
  • short-circuit of the speaker chassis
  • chassis overload (after measuring the impedance, in preparation)
  • pilot tone monitoring signal missing from Input 2 (configurable)
    • network errors (each message is confirmed)

Fault messages are indicated and displayed via the following:

  • fault contact (relay 2x alternate, link)
  • red flashing LEDs (built into input circuit board)
    • status messages in Fohnn Audio Soft
  • error messages via RS-485 and Ethernet (accessibility to other systems available)

10.6 Protection and maintenance

To ensure successful operation, do not place the system in bright sunlight, intense heat, damp or dusty environments for any length of time. Avoid operating the system where there is heavy vibration and do not remove the front grille while the system is operational. In the case of any fault or defect, please contact the Service Department at Fohnn Audio AG. Do not attempt to open up the system!
