A blue Power Status LED will light to notify you that the DX 1616 device is connected to a power source and switched to the 'On' position.
Network Status LED
When the processor has an Ethernet cable / network cable connected the orange Network status LED on the front of the processor will light - once the processor initializes. If there is no Ethernet / network cable attached it remains off.
Note: When the Network status LED is on it does not mean that you have established a Network Connection – only that an Ethernet or network cable is connected to the processor. Proper Network Connection and Operation is indicated/displayed only in the software's "Network View" page (see the Network View & Connection section of this guide).
When the processor and software are connected and communicating the orange Network status light will flash
Input/Output Signal Indicators
Each Input and Output channel has a dual colour LED signal indicator. Green for signal present at -40 dBu and Red at +17 dBu at the advent of analog clipping.
Rear Panel
- Power On/Off Switch
- Fuse Compartment
Should you need to replace the fuse use a T-Series 2.5A-250V fuse. Ensure power to the device is disconnected when replacing the fuse. - Power Input Connector
Insert the IEC plug connector end of the supplied cable into the rear panel of the DX 1616. Connect the AC end of the cord into an AC power source of the correct voltage and frequency (100-240 VAC, 50/60 Hz). - Ethernet Connector
DX 1616 utilizes a TCP protocol for communication with the host PC running the Console software. The port is a standard RJ45 (Ethernet) jack. - IP Reset Button.
See IP reset push button / Reset Processor Network Settings (DHCP not available) section in this guide. -
Logic Control Input/Output Port
Utilizing twisted pair wire with an attached terminal block, you can use external signals to control parameters such as triggering presets within Console. -
Analog Line Outputs
Euro/Phoenix style terminal block output connections utilizing 3.5mm terminal block connectors (included). Use balanced, shielded audio cabling. DX 1616 has sixteen (16) outputs.
- Analog Mic/Line Inputs
Euro/Phoenix style terminal block input connections utilizing 3.5mm terminal block connectors (included). Use balanced, shielded audio cabling. DX 1616 has sixteen (16) switchable Mic/Line inputs with 48V phantom power. Note: Mic inputs are only available in channel 15 and 16 (please refer to the default RCF DX1616 project file).
- Network Audio I/O
DX 1616 include two RJ45 Dante enabled network audio connectors (not to be confused with the Ethernet connector). 16 x16 I/O channels on one RJ45 connector/cable – one RJ45 for redundancy.
Install the Solaro Console & Control software
The USB drive included with each processor includes a full copy of the DX 1616's software. You can download the Solaro Console and Control software from RCF web site www.rcf.it
Note: Solaro Control App for iPad/ iOS please visit Apple App Store and search for "Solaro Control"
Windows users
When installing the Console software via our web site and where your windows PC software does not include Microsoft's .net framework component - your PC will use the Internet to secure a copy and continue the installation.
Note: The Microsoft installation program/process remembers what location you installed from - the first time you load the Console software into your computer. This can cause issues if you try and load a new software Version (update) from a different location than the location originally used to load the Console software into your computer (USB, Internet Download, etc).
Solution: Simply un-install the old Console software version in your computers control panel before you update your software version each time. You won't have any update issues and you won't have to remember what location you loaded the software from previously or what the source was - USB, Internet, etc.
Make sure the Console Software version is the latest version (see "About" menu vs. the web site). Make sure the processors Firmware version is compatible with software (view device firmware version in Network View).
Note: Solaro Control App for iPad/ iOS please visit Apple App Store and search for "Solaro Control"
Firewall – allow access!
If you have a personal Firewall setup on your computer, a Firewall popup window might be displayed during the software installation to ask whether users want to "Block" or "Allow" Console from accessing the network. Select "Allow" to continue installation.
Once installed and working – close the Console software for now until you are instructed to open it again.
Download and save DX1616 project files
These are the pre-designed DX1616 device designs and DSP schematics that you will select from to use in your Solaro Console software and DX 1616 processor.
Before you begin working with the Solaro Console software and your DX1616 processor - visit RCF web site at www.rcf.it and save to a folder in your computer the DX 1616 project files (.pjxml files).
Initial Device Connectivity
The DX1616 runs on a network based infrastructure and are configured and controlled by a host computer via Ethernet using the Solaro Console software. A network connection can be made between your computer and DX1616 via DHCP enabled router (recommended) or non-DHCP enabled connection. The primary difference between these two connection methods is the automatic IP address assignment / management that DHCP provides.
Note: Available DHCP is the recommended connection method!
A DHCP enabled Router, Server, or Router/Switch
The DX1616 processor device boots up with DHCP enabled by default so with DHCP enabled routers and servers DX1616 will automatically obtain an IP address upon connection and power up.
Note: This may take a minute or two as the devices look for DHCP to obtain their IP address!
A Non-DHCP enabled direct connection or indirectly via an Ethernet switch.
When the processor is connected directly to a computer or indirectly via a switch or hub and DHCP is not available to assign IP addresses - the connection process is not automatic.
A Single Processor or Device in the Network Only - No DHCP Available
Once no DHCP is detected - a single direct or indirectly connected processor/device will either try to connect using the IP address last assigned and stored in the device or attempt to revert to is default IP address of 169.254.128.128. Under some conditions the processor/device might refuse to relinquish its stored IP address or revert to its default IP address and thus refuse to connect. To simplify and speed this non-DHCP enabled connection we recommend - that before you power up your processor/device you should Reset the processor/device to its Default IP Address using the IP Reset Button on the rear of the device.
Resetting the processor to its default IP address of 169.254.128.128 will have you connecting directly quickly and without problems when no DHCP is available.
Please see - IP Reset Push Button / Reset Processor Network Settings instructions if you are creating a non-DHCP direct or indirect connection.
Note: Most modern computers can now detect a direct connection so you can use a straight through Ethernet cable for the direct connection (if there is a direct connection issue that persists then you might try a crossover type Ethernet cable).
Note: Your PC should be set to "Obtain IP Address Automatically" – which is the common default setting in most PC's.
IP reset push button / Reset Processor Network Settings (DHCP not available)
Follow these instructions prior to powering up the processor and opening the Solaro Console software.
(a) At the rear of the processor you will see a small, round, recessed push button labeled "IP Reset"- just to the right of the Ethernet connector (looking from the back). You are able to push this reset push-button inward using the point of a pen or a small pointed object.
(b) Press the IP Reset push button inward and while holding it pushed in power up the processor device.
(c) Wait 5 seconds after power up and then release the IP Reset push button.
(d) Wait for the processor to power up completely (this will take a minute or so as it initializes and sets its default IP address). When complete the Network status LED will light and remain on.
Note: This may take a minute or two as the devices to obtain their IP address!
Note: After resetting the IP, it is strongly recommended to close and re-launch Solaro Console & Control software!
(e) Double check in Solaro Console software "network view" the IP-addresses of DX1616 and "Control"

Multiple Processor Devices Connected to the Network – No DHCP Available
Where you will be connecting multiple DX1616 processors in your network and DHCP is not available, the user will have to manually assign unique static IP addresses to each processor or device. See - manual assignment of IP addresses.
DX1616 connected and powered up
With your processor device/s connected as a network or directly to your computer, power on all devices.
(a) On power up the processors Power Status LED will light.
(b) If the processor has an Ethernet cable / network cable connected the Network Status LED on the front of the processor will light - once the processor initializes. If there is no Ethernet / network cable attached it will remain off.
Note: This does not mean that you have established a network connection – only that an Ethernet or network cable is connected to the processor. Proper Network Connection and Operation is indicated/displayed only in the software's Network View page – see Network View & Connection.
(c) Upon being powered up the processor will search for a DHCP router or server to obtain an IP address. If it locates DHCP it will connect quickly. If you are using a direct or indirect Non-DHCP connection you will have followed the instructions to connect to a single processor or multiple processors – where DHCP is not available.
(d) When the processor and software are connected and commands are being sent to the device the Network Status LED will flash.

(c) Firmware version: Any device firmware / software incompatibility will be indicated in Network View with either a Red warning symbol (connected but firmware is not compatible - must upgrade device firmware) or a Yellow symbol (connected and may function but firmware is not a recommended version). See Firmware Upgrade.
(d) If your processor and software have tot connected properly you will see a Red or Yellow connection indicator to the left of the processor or device model in Network View indicating a connection or operational problem.
Network Connection Indicators
• Green (On) - Connected and operational.
• Yellow – Connected but Not Operational.
• Red (Off) - The processor is offline
- Not connected – no communication between the Solaro Console software and the DX1616 processor. Check cables and connections.
Note: This could be a temporary offline interruption if the processor is busy performing a firmware upgrade, re-booting, searching for DHCP or defaulting to its default IP address.
TCP/IP Connection Trouble Shooting
While in "Network View" if there is a Yellow network connection indicator next to the processor device model the device is connected/online - but Not Ready / Not Operational.
The three most common reasons for this Yellow connection indicator is the result of
(a) A non-DHCP connection where multiple processors are in use and each device needs a unique IP address manually assigned to it
(b) Where a non-DHCP direct or indirectly connected - single processor device is not reverting to its default IP address and/or is holding onto its previous address and
(c) Software/Firmware incompatibility.
(d) Your computer is featuring more than one network interface
Solutions
(a) See instructions- manual assignment of IP addresses
(b) Reset the processor to its default IP address
(c) Check device firmware version in Network View & perform a processor firmware upgrade.
(d) If you computer is featuring more than one network interfaces, i.e. LAN port and WiFi: Make sure, that both interfaces do NOT have the same IP range! If you do not want to change the IP addresses, just deactivate the not needed network interface and re-launch Solaro Console software.
Those connection solutions resolve 99% of any Yellow indicator connection issues but to assist further, when the indicator is Yellow you can hover your cursor over the device and there is a pop-up Tooltip message to tell you the kind of issues it has detected.
A few message and solution examples below.
Message: Device not ready.
Solution: Wait a minute or two till the device is ready and it should then connect and the indicator turn Green if successful. If the indicator remains Yellow, close the Solaro Console software and then re-open or reset the processor.
Message: Device Schematic Not ready.
Solution: The processor has already been loaded with a DSP design. Give the connection process a minute to connect and if it does not connect close the Solaro Console software, open it again, select Start "Network View" and you should now see that the processor is connected and operational - as indicated by the Green network connection indicator to the left of the processor device model. Solution: If not connected - reset the processor - see IP reset push button / Reset Processor Network Settings (DHCP not available) or IP reset with software.
Message: DSP Processing Error.
Solution: This could be a bad DSP Design schematic. You may need to reload the DSP schematic and restart and/or restart device to reset its DSP chip.
Message: Error in Firmware Upgrade.
Solution: It will print out an error code when you hover your cursor over the device in Network View (Do Firmware Upgrade again).
Manual Assignment of IP Addresses To Multiple Devices – No DHCP:
Unique, manually assigned/static IP addresses are required for each processor or device. (Each processor or device indirectly connected to the PC via a network switch or hub)
Note: Make sure your computer is set to "Obtain IP Address Automatically".
Note: We will set your computer's static IP Address after changing the IP Addresses on all the processors and devices first!
To manually assign static IP addresses to multiple processors and devices,
(a) Connect device number one directly to your PC, reset its IP address (IP Reset) and establish a connection between the device and your PC/Solaro Console software.
(b) Next, in Network View - right click the connected processor or device and select "Device Setup". In the Network Properties window as shown at the right - select "Change Network Configuration" in order to disable DHCP and to insert IP addresses manually (it also provides two built in test procedures, device security, and device information).
(c) With the DHCP button disabled, assign the unique IP Address of 192.168.1.X to the first processor device – where X is a unique number between 0 & 255.
(d) When finished – Select "Apply" to save changes and then "Done" to exit.
(e) Complete steps (a) thru (d) above for each subsequent processor or device so that each is assigned its own unique static IP address (example – might be 192.168.1.180 / 181/ 182/ etc.
(f) Note: Your devices will appear Offline until you assign a static IP address for your PC as described below.
(g) Once all processors and devices have their own unique IP address we will do the same for your PC.
A Static IP Address for your Computer - Multiple Devices – No DHCP:
In this section, we will be navigating through Microsoft Windows to determine your home networking information as it applies to manually assigning a unique static IP address to your computer.
(a) The first step is to open the 'Start Menu' and select Control Panel.
(b) Click View Network Status and Tasks under the Network and Internet header as shown at the right.
(c) Click on Change adapter settings on the left most tab.
(d) Left-Click on Local Area Connection and click the Properties button. Select Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4) then click Properties to access the manual IP settings.
(e) Set up your IP address to be 192.168.1.X where the X can be any value from 0 - 255 - but unique from the other devices that you already manually assigned unique IP addresses to.
(f) Use the following settings for your PC's unique static address: IP Address: 192.168.1.X (Example - IP might be 192.168.1.185 based on my Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0 unique device addresses above) Gateway: 192.168.1.1 DNS Servers: 192.168.1.1
(g) If you set up your devices as per steps above, you will now see them appear online and connected in Network View in the Solaro Console software.
Firmware update to DX 1616 processor
Once you have the processor device and the Solaro Console software connected and operational and before you start work on a DSP design project - make sure your processor has the latest firmware installed (www.rcf.it - verify, download latest firmware, save file to your PC and proceed below with firmware upgrade procedure if required).
Note: You must not disrupt power during the Firmware Upgrade process!
(a) In Network View – Right click the device, Select "Firmware Upgrade" from the menu and follow the instructions.

Router 1-8Home screen (Router 1-8)
Philosophy: The main screen is called "Home" and gives the most important information about all the incoming signals (on top of the screen), its routing(s) to DSP output modules (on the right of the screen), mutes, levels, limits and delays. The output DSP modules have easy to understand common labels (cannot be edited by the user) like "Main L", "Side L", "Fill Front", "Fill Center", "Sub 1" and so on. Output Delay: For each DSP output you can set a delay by double clicking the parameter. The maximum is 500ms. You can type in the delay in the "home" screen or in the DSP module screen. Note: If you need more delay, use the "Delay L/R" or "AUX" DSP modules in "Router 9-16" section Router: The router in the center of the screen allows to assign each input channel to one or several DSP modules individually. For each connection you can adjust the level from 0dB to negative values by double clicking the parameter. Note: You can assign at the same time several inputs to a DSP module (Desk A, B, C, D and so on) please be aware the more inputs are routed (X) and connected, the more noise occurs on the output! We recommend using the "Group Mute" button to mute the not (yet) needed inputs or de-select them in the matrix! Mutes: The mute bottoms on the left will mute the complete signal paths (all signals from input section) to its DSP module on the right. Fig.: 22: Home Screen (Router 1-8)Home screen (Router 9-16)

 This chapter explains the „emergenvy operating of DX1616“ without the use of Solaro Control App and if no proejct file is loaded. Even if no „Control“ panel is mapped, or the computer with Solaro Control is not available, you can have (limited) access to the DX1616. Note: this way to operate the DX1616 is very different because no GUI is available. You are directly changing parameters in the architecture level! text_image

FAQs
Which are the "sync" options when connecting to DX1616?
Sync from PC to DX1616
To sync from PC to DX1616 means that you want to transfer settings from your project file (offline) to DX1616: (a) Click the red "Load Design To Device" button at the top of the Project View / Design Mode work area page – as shown below (not visible if a network interface is not detected – you are working Offline) text_image
Design Mode Project: DX1618_V1_4 Last Design in Default Active Preset: (1) - Default ZoomSync from DX1616 to PC
You want to connect to DX1616 (switch online), but you want to use the current settings which are in DX1616: (a) Click the red "Load Design To Device" button at the top of the Project View / Design Mode work area page – as shown below (not visible if a network interface is not detected – you are working Offline) text_image

Please Select Detected that all DSP devices has the same design as physical devices. But parameter settings may be different. Do You want to reload the devices with project parameters? "YES"- This option will overwrite the parameters setting on your devices. !!!WARNING!!! This option will lose the existing parameter setting on device! "NO"- This option will start ONLINE mode without loading in the parameters. Will use the existing parameters from devices. "Cancel"- Abort this operation. Yes No Canceltext_image
Please Select Will update the following devices with the project settings Loading Solaro Control Device "Control" → to Physical Device "Control" !!!WARNING!! Will overwrite the parameters on your device Will lose the existing parameter setting on device! And Device Audio will be interrupted! Do you want to proceed? Ok CancelWhat happens with my last settings in DX1616 when power is switched off?
The DX1616 remembers the last settings. Means if you switch off and on, the DX1616 will restart with all the last settings done before switching off.Stand by of remote computer or network interruption
If your remote computer is shutting down to sleep mode/ stand by, the network connection of Solaro Control App and DX1616 is lost. You will see on your host computer a RED network indicator in the network view. text_image

Yes! As soon a project file is loaded to DX1616 and all devices (DX1616, Control Panel) are mapped before, you can just launch Solaro Control App and operate DX1616. Note: This works because the Mac Address and IP Address is part of the project file. Make sure, that you are still working in the same network. Note: While operating DX1616 with Solaro Control App only, please be aware that you are not able to save your settings to a project file! You can do it later on with Solaro Console, because your last settings will be kept in DX1616 even if power is switched off. To safe settings in DX1616 to a project file, please have a look in the chapter "Which are the "sync" options when connecting to DX1616?" and "Sync from DX1616 to PC"How can I safe my settings?
If you would like to safe the settings of your current DX1616 project, please proceed like this: 1. Switch back to Design Mode (Offline Mode). You will be asked, if your current settings shall be copied from DX1616 to the project file. 2. Confirm with "Yes" and safe your project file "File>Safe as" on your computer. 3. You can create a preset of your parameters. Please refer to the chapter "How can I create a (user) preset?" below. Note: Again, please remember to keep the origin RCF project file as back up!Can I use a second Control Devices (iPad) to manage DX1616?
Yes. You have to edit the formally created copy of the origin RCF project file like this: (a) Launch Solaro Console software and open the project file and stay in Design Mode. (b) Copy by right mouse click the "Control" icon and paste it. (c) The name of the copied icon will be "Control-1". You shall re-name it into "iPad" and edit the object color using the object properties on the right side of Solaro Console software.
