(See the Lake Controller User Manual PLM Addendum formore detailed information on PLM Series load verification and real-time performance monitoring functions.)4.2.3 Lake ® Processing and ControllerThe PLM Series integrates seamlessly into the Lake Processing environment. Two processing modulesoffer precise settings for gain, delay, crossover slope, equalization and limiting. Lake processing featuresincorporated in each module include Raised Cosine Equalization™ , linear phase crossovers, and LimiterMax™loudspeaker protection. The Super Module feature allows hardware processing modules in two or moreseparate PLM Series units to function as a single module in the Lake Controller software interface. (Seesection 8.2 and the separate Dolby Lake Controller User Manual.)4.2.4 Lake Analyzer BridgeLake Controller software also allows seamless integration with third-party, real-time sound system measure-ment tools. This complete integration feature allows you to measure with third-party measurement softwareand adjust your system EQ at the same time, using the same user interface.Third-party measurement tools that can be seamlessly integrated include:Smaart Version 5▸Live-Capture Light / Live-Capture Pro▸Smaart, distributed and supported by EAW, is the most straightforward and widely used software forreal-time sound system measurement, optimization and control. Smaart combines several powerful audiofrequency measurement and analysis tools.Live-Capture was created by WaveCapture to offer easy-to-use software and measurement tools for soundengineers, installers, consultants and designers. The Lake Analyzer Bridge in conjunction with Live-CaptureLight provides a completely free spectrum analyzer via your Lake Controller software interface.4.2.5 Dante™ audio networkAll PLM Series products include Dante digital audio networking as standard. Based on the latest advancesin networking, Dante offers simplified system configuration and extremely low latency while deliveringvery high quality uncompressed digital audio over the entire PLM Series network. The Zen™ automaticconfiguration feature enables “plug-and-play” setup without third-party DHCP or DNS servers. Dante isfully compatible with new high-bandwidth network backbones, allowing high channel counts while alsotransporting third-party control protocols through the same network.4.3 Additional DocumentationThis document, the PLM Series Operation Manual, serves as the primary reference source for detailedinformation on the installation and operation of PLM Series Powered Loudspeaker Management systems.It also provides detailed information on set-up and configuration of internal features using the front-panelinterface.However, if you intend to use the PLM Series unit(s) as part of networked systems, or access monitoringand control features via the Lake Controller software application, then you may need to refer to the followingcomplementary documents.
