8.14 LOADING STEERING DATA
Steering Files are generated in the BeamEngine software package (See Using BeamEngine)
The steering properties of the loudspeaker may be adjusted by loading a ‘Beam Engine File’ (*.bef) in the Setup tab in
the main control panel. When the ‘Open File’ button is clicked, a dialogue will allow you to load a new .bef le. If there is
more than one loudspeaker ‘box’ in the column, each .bef le produced by the beam design software will be for a given
box. The box number will usually be appended to the name of the le. The number of each box is shown to the right of
the device name in the Monicon. It is very important that each le is loaded to the appropriate box.
Note that when steering data is loaded into a loudspeaker, the data has to be stored internally, which takes a nite
time. To avoid loss of steering data, do not remove the power from a loudspeaker for at least ten seconds after loading
steering data. The same applies if you are loading a .dse Settings le which has steering data embedded into it.
