CONFIGURING YOUR RAM SYSTEM 5000

The RAM System 5000 is an extremely flexible unit that covers an array of

inputs and outputs rarely seen on products at its price range. Contrary to the

usual “optional” 5.1 facilities on products in this category, the System 5000 is

5.1 ready out of the box.

This does not mean that, if your studio does not need 5.1 at present, you are

paying for features you don’t need, as it has some smart configuration

parameters that take all the juice of your 5000 no matter your application.

So, mainly based on your 5.1 and subwoofer needs, there are 2 main user

configuration options that should be set on installation:

• MODE 5.1/ST ( 5.1 or Full Stereo operation)

• LFE MODE CONFIGURATION

MODE 5.1/ST CONFIGURATION

In case 5.1 mode is going to be used in your facility, please activate it by

pressing SHIFT + INPUT 1 and confirm as requested. Repeating the same

operation will turn the unit back into Stereo mode. Save status as explained

before.

The implications of setting the unit in 5.1 mode are as follows: Inputs 1, 2 and

3 get linked (all 3 lights work at the same time), as do Outputs 1, 2 and 3.

These 3 pairs will become your 5.1 system following the protocol below:

• INPUT 1 L-R/OUTPUT 1 L-R: FRONT L-R

• INPUT 2 L/OUTPUT 2 L: CENTER

• INPUT 2 R/OUTPUT 2 R: LFE

• INPUT 3 L-R/OUTPUT 3 L-R: REAR L-R
