HAL SYSTEM INSTALL GUIDE Introduction to the HAL System The HAL System, Rane's revolutionary new audio product, makes it possible for you to solve age-old audio issues with a simple click or two (or sometimes three). In designing this system, Rane's engineers have anticipated the needs of the installer, the designer, and the end user, resulting in an intuitive and relatively simple system to operate. You'll be amazed at how quickly you can accomplish tasks that used to take hours. The HAL System includes both hardware and software components. This system introduction provides a broad overview of these components. Hardware Components The primary hardware component in a HAL System is the HAL host device. There is only one HAL device per system. HAL serves as the system's brain to which you connect other slave devices such as analog audio equipment, Remote Audio Devices (RADs), Digital Remotes (DRs), Expansion Units (EXPs), and more. Inside HAL is a DSP processor that manages the audio as well as a host processor that manages other aspects of the system. The following graphic provides a visual of an entire HAL1x System: 4

Introduction to the HAL System
The HAL System, Rane's revolutionary new audio product, makes it possible for you to solve age-old audio issues
with a simple click or two (or sometimes three). In designing this system, Rane's engineers have anticipated the
needs of the installer, the designer, and the end user, resulting in an intuitive and relatively simple system to oper-
ate. You'll be amazed at how quickly you can accomplish tasks that used to take hours.
The HAL System includes both hardware and software components. This system introduction provides a broad
overview of these components.
Hardware Components
The primary hardware component in a HAL System is the HAL host device. There is only
one
HAL device per sys-
tem. HAL serves as the system's brain to which you connect other slave devices such as analog audio equipment,
Remote Audio Devices (RADs), Digital Remotes (DRs), Expansion Units (EXPs), and more. Inside HAL is a DSP
processor that manages the audio as well as a host processor that manages other aspects of the system.
