PREFACE The MPS-DSPX-RC1 is designed specially for the Polaris Ride Command system. The input of the DSPX harness is prewired to plug directly into the Amp 1, Amp 2, and Amp 3 harnesses behind the RC screen. The MPS-DSPX-RC1 offers a Differential Balanced input as well as independent level control on the outputs of each channel. Independent volume control is important for the AMP 3 factory plug. AMP 3’s output is not adjustable through the ride command screen.

QUICK SETUP GUIDE DSP Setup & Controls The MPS-DSPX-RC1 uses the Axxess DSP XL application to control and setup your DSP. Only items pertaining to the MPS-DSPX-RC1 will be shown. Download and install the AXDSP-XL app from the Google Play Store or Apple App Store. Google Play Store Apple App Store iOS 12.1 or higher Below are the quick steps to get your MPS-DSPX-RC1 system configured and playing. The AXDSP-XL app is powerful and offers many features.

QUICK SETUP GUIDE (CONT.) DSP Setup & Controls (Cont’d) From the configurations page you should first test your system to make sure everything is connected properly after the DSP. To test your setup select the IDENTIFY button. This will play a chime thought your setup to confirm your system is ready to pass audio. (Figure 1) (Figure 1) Next select your VEHICLE TYPE (Figure 1) The MPS-DSPX-RC1 will be set to Polaris for the Make. Next, select your Model, RZR or General.

QUICK SETUP GUIDE (CONT.) DSP Setup & Controls (Cont’d) Next Screen will allow you to set your crossover points, filter type, and slope. If you would like to pass full frequency range to your amps set all filters to High Pass and drag the slider all the way to the left making sure the entire frequency bar is green. (Figure 4) • Selecting High Pass and Low Pass will provide one crossover frequency adjustment.
PAGE 10
QUICK SETUP GUIDE DSP Setup & Controls (Cont’d) The Equalizer Adjustment tab will allow you to independently set your preferred audio curve for each channel. It is recommended that a Real Time Analyzer (RTA) be used to adjust these settings. If you choose to leave your EQ settings flat is will not affect the output signal. The purpose of the EQ setting is to offer the user the ability to tune the system to their listening style.
PAGE 11
QUICK SETUP GUIDE (CONT.) DSP Setup & Controls (Cont’d) The final step to getting your MPS-DSPX-RC1 setup is to save all your settings to the DSP. To do this select your CONFIGURATIONS tab and select LOCK DOWN. This will write all your setting to the DSP and save them. Note: If you turn the ignition off or close the app before LOCKING DOWN all your information will be lost and you will need to go through the setup steps again.

ADVANCED DSP FEATURES & CONTROL OPTIONS Configuration (Figure 7) • Identify - Click this button to confirm that the interface is connected properly. If so, a chime will be heard from the front left speaker*. * Only installations where the interface is connected to a front left speaker. • Reset to Defaults - Resets the interface to factory settings. During the reset process the amplifiers will shut off for 5-10 seconds.
PAGE 13
ADVANCED DSP FEATURES & CONTROL OPTIONS (CONT.) Delay Adjust (Figure 8) • Allows a delay of each channel. If a delay is desired, first measure the distance (in inches) from each speaker to the listening position, then enter those values to the corresponding speaker. Add (in inches) to the desired speaker to delay it. (Figure 8) REV.
PAGE 14
ADVANCED DSP FEATURES & CONTROL OPTIONS (CONT.) Inputs/Levels • Clipping Level - Use this feature to protect sensitive speakers like tweeters from being driven past their capabilities. If the output signal of the DSP clips the audio will be reduced by 20dB. Turning down the stereo will allow the audio to come back at a normal level. The sensitivity of this feature can be adjusted to the listening preference of the user. • Chime Volume - Not applicable in this application.
