Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase of the i2600 intelligent speaker
management system. Through the i2600 you will have the ability
to create complex speaker setups, complete with a whole host of
possible signal processors built onboard. These include delays,
equalizers, compressors, limiters, gates, expanders, automatic
gain control, and many other fantastic functions. The extensive
speaker routing system allows the i2600 to be used as a simple
mono 6-way system or stereo 3-way system. The i2600 was
designed for stereo operation, with two input channels accepting
stereo input sources. Despite this, the unit can easily function as
a dual mono system for two independent mono signals assignable
to any number of outputs.
We know how eager you are to get started – getting the unit out
and hooking all your gear up is probably your number one priority
right now – but before you do, we strongly urge you to take a
look through this manual. Inside, you will find important facts and
figures on the set up, use and applications of your brand new
speaker management system. If you do happen to be one of the
many people who flatly refuse to read user manuals, then we just
urge you to at least glance at the Getting Started section. After
glancing at or reading through the manual (we applaud you if
you do read the entire manual), please store it in a place that is
easy for you to find, because chances are there's something you
missed the first time around.

Factory Reset
In the event of the password being lost or forgotten, or any other
reason, the user may require the unit to be reset to the original
factory settings. In this event a factory reset will clear any and all
settings of the i2600 and return the device to the original factory
settings.
Warning: Continuing with this process will mean the i2600 will re-
initialize to the original factory settings and any previously stored
information and changed parameters will be permanently lost.
Note: As this process will turn the i2600 back to the factory default
settings, your current password will be replaced by the factory
default password: "000000".
To restore your i2600 to factory settings:
1. While the i2600 is switched off, simultaneously press and hold
the ENTER, ESC and UTILITY buttons on the front panel.
2. Maintain pressure on all three buttons as you turn the power
switch on. The screen will read "Memory Reset" to indicate that
the factory reset is taking place.
3. Release the buttons and wait for the i2600 to re-initialize.
Once completed, the i2600 will resume regular operation as though
it were a new unit from the factory and no previously programmed
parameters will be available for use.
