7 CHAPTER 1: INTR ODUCTION HOW TO USE THIS MANUAL Make sure to r ead these operating instructions in their entirety befor e configuring a loudspeaker system with JM-1P loudspeakers. In particular , pay close attention to material related to safety issues.
CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION 8 The JM-1P's sophisticated onboar d amplification and pro- cessing produces consistent and predictable r esults in any system design. A proprietary two-channel, class AB/H power amplifier with complementary MOSFET output stages yields a total power output of 1275 W (2550 W peak).
9 CHAPTER 2: POWER REQUIR EMENTS The JM-1P loudspeaker combines advanced loudspeaker technology with equally advanced power capabilities. Understanding power distribution, voltage and curr ent requir ements, as well as electrical safety issues, is critical to the safe operation of the JM-1P.
CHAPTER 2: POWER REQUIREMENTS 10 The maximum number of loudspeakers that can be looped from the Loo p Output connector is determined by the volt- age of the power sour ce, the circuit br eaker rating, and the rating of the AC power cable connected to the first JM-1P loudspeaker .
JM-1P OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS 11 When powering up the JM-1P, the following startup events take place over several seconds. 1. Audio output is muted. 2. V oltage is detected and the power supply mode is auto- matically adjusted as necessary . 3. The power supply ramps up.
CHAPTER 2: POWER REQUIREMENTS 12 ELECTRICAL SAFETY ISSUES Pay close attention to these important electrical and safety issues. The JM-1P requir es a grounded outlet. Always use a grounded o utlet and plug. Do not use a ground-lifting adap ter or cut the AC cable ground pin.
13 CHAPTER 3: AMPLIFICATION AND AUDIO The JM-1P low- and high-fr equency drivers are power ed by a proprieta ry two-channel Meyer Sound amplifier with MOSFET output stages. The audio signal is pr ocessed with an electronic cr ossover , correction f ilters for phase and fre- quency response, and driver pr otection circuitry .
CHAPTER 3: AM PLIFICATION AND AUDIO 14 T o calculate the load impedance for the looped loudspeak- ers, divide 10 kOhms (the input impedance for a single JM-1P) by the number of looped loudspeakers. For exam- ple, the load impedance for 10 JM-1P loudspeakers is 1000 ohms (10 kOhms / 10).
JM-1P OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS 15 AMPLIFIER COOLING SYSTEM The amplifier for JM-1P uses natural convection for cooling at low to moderate audio levels; for high audio levels, it uses Meyer Sound’ s proprietary QuietCool fan tec hnology to pre- vent overheating.

17 CHAPTER 4: ADDING SUBWOOFERS TO A JM-1P LOUDS PEAKER SYSTEM 700-HP subwoofers can be added to JM-1P loudspeaker systems to enhance the low-frequency r esponse and increase the overall acoustic power of the system in the low- est frequencies.
CHAPTER 4: ADDING SUBWOOFERS TO A JM-1P LOUDSPEAKER SYSTEM 18 USING DIGITAL SIGNAL PROCESSORS Full-range signals can be connected dir ectly to Meyer Sound self-powered loudspeakers b ecause the loudspeak- ers have built-in active crossovers.
19 CHAPTER 5: QUICKFLY RIGGING The JM-1P loudspeaker is compatible with Meyer Sound’ s QuickFly system, a comprehensive collection of custom- designed rigging, flying, and mounting options.
CHAPTER 5: QUICKFLY RIGGING 20 The JM-1P Quick-Release Pins Each JM-1P ships with four quick-rele ase pins that secure the units when they ar e linked.
JM-1P OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS 21 3. Secure the r ear GuideALinks with the quick-release pins stored at the c enter top and center bottom of the loud- speaker .
CHAPTER 5: QUICKFLY RIGGING 22 NOTE: When using M10 knobs to secur e the MP A-JM1 pickup plate to the JM-1P, the sec- ond hanging point fr om the rear is inaccessible.
JM-1P OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS 23 JM-1P Arrays with T wo Pickup Plates T wo MP A-JM1 pickup plates can suspend arrays of 4–6 loudspeakers: For arrays of four JM-1Ps (with 80 degr ees of horizontal coverage), attach the two pickup plates between the first and second, and thir d and fourth loudspeakers.
CHAPTER 5: QUICKFLY RIGGING 24 THE MTG-JM1 V ERTICAL GRID The optional MTG-JM1 vertical grid suspends JM-1P verti- cal arrays of up to six units. The grid was designed specifi- cally for the JM-1P and is compatible with the GuideALinks and quick-release pins included with the JM-1P.
JM-1P OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS 25 THE MDB-JM1 DOLLY BOARD The optional MDB-JM1 dolly boar d transports the JM-1P on caster wheels. Up to three dolly boar ds can be interlocked for transporting up to thr ee linked JM-1Ps.
CHAPTER 5: QUICKFLY RIGGING 26.
27 CHAPTER 6: THE RMS REMOTE MONITORING SYSTEM An optional RMS remote monitoring system module can be installed in the JM-1P, allowing it to be connected to an RMS network. RMS allows real-time monitoring of multiple Meyer Sound self-power ed loudspeakers from a Windows- based computer .
CHAPTER 6: THE RMS REMOTE MONITORING SYSTEM 28 The RMS software displays all loudspeakers on the network in a panel with icons, Meter views, and T ext views that can be customized to suit your needs. Lo udspeaker data is updated 2–5 times per second.
JM-1P OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS 29 Wink LED (Gr een) The green Win k LED lights when a signal is sent from the RMS software b y clicking the Wink button on the loud- speaker’ s icon or on its T ext view . This is useful for identify- ing the physical loudspeaker corr esponding to a loudspeaker icon in the RMS softwar e.
