HAL SYSTEM DESIGN GUIDE EXP7x Device The EXP7x is an 8-channel AEC DSP Expansion Unit for the HAL1x expansion bus. The device consists of eight, full-featured AEC blocks that include level control, Ambient Noise Reduction (ANR), AGC and 5-Band Parametric EQ. Each connected EXP7x device provides eight full-featured, high-performance AEC blocks. Blocks appear in the DSP TAB under the Conferencing heading. The eight AEC blocks are fully drag-and-drop and may be freely used in a configuration as required. An AEC block and its child blocks appear as follows in the Halogen processing map: The EXP7x is powered via a universal AC Mains switching power supply. It is packaged in a 1U chassis approximately eight inches deep. As with all the HAL1x Expansion Units, the EXP7x connects to a HAL1x via a shielded CAT 5e cable with a maximum length of 100 meters (300 feet). NOTE: The Expansion Bus is a daisy-chain topology supporting up to 32 expansion devices. See "HAL1x Expansion Units" on page 64 for details on latency, cable type and cable length. Following are pictures of the rear and front panels of an EXP7x, along with descriptions of the hardware features. Rear Panel 1. The Power IEC jack connects to AC line voltage, 100-240 VAC, 50/60 Hz. 2. Locate and Power LEDs The Locate LED, which flashes when toggled from within the Halogen software, helps identify a specific EXP - useful if you have more than one EXP installed. The Power LED lights when adequate power is applied to the unit. 3. Expansion Bus Jacks and Link LED 83

EXP7x Device
The EXP7x is an 8-channel AEC DSP Expansion Unit for the HAL1x expansion bus. The device consists of eight,
full-featured AEC blocks that include level control, Ambient Noise Reduction (ANR), AGC and 5-Band Par-
ametric EQ. Each connected EXP7x device provides eight full-featured, high-performance AEC blocks. Blocks
appear in the
DSP
TAB under the Conferencing heading. The eight AEC blocks are fully drag-and-drop and may
be freely used in a configuration as required.
An AEC block and its child blocks appear as follows in the Halogen processing map:
The EXP7x is powered via a universal AC Mains switching power supply. It is packaged in a 1U chassis approx-
imately eight inches deep. As with all the HAL1x Expansion Units, the EXP7x connects to a HAL1x via a
shielded CAT 5e cable with a maximum length of 100 meters (300 feet).
NOTE
:
The Expansion Bus is a daisy-chain topology supporting up to 32 expansion devices. See "HAL1x
Expansion Units" on page 64 for details on latency, cable type and cable length.
Following are pictures of the rear and front panels of an EXP7x, along with descriptions of the hardware features.
