INTRODUCTION
The AX2010P Vercal Line Array element is designed for a wide range of sound reinforcement applicaons where a exible and
easy to use vercal array systems is needed. The AX2010P has been designed both for rental live sound applicaons and for
xed installaons and has been engineered for the simplest use possible but without sacricing anything in sound quality and
performance.
The high frequency range is reproduced by two low-distoron compression drivers, equipped with very light-weight diaphragms.
Two transmission line waveforming waveguides have been used to load the HF drivers, in order to provide a detailed and natural
sound and to achieve a long-distance HF projecng capacity.
The two 10” woofers employed in the reproducon of the mid-bass range are equipped with very light-weight cones. The lightness
of the diaphragm is furthermore improved by the use of aluminium voice coil instead of convenonal copper. This ensure a fast
reproducon of the mid range and of mid-bass musical passages, improving also the thermal capacity of the voice coil and,
consequently, controlling the overall power compression. The two 10” woofers are back loaded by a short hybrid transmission
line that minimizes the eect of the box resonances and eliminates the “boxy” mid-bass sound commonly obtained from regular
bassreex enclosures.
The crossover lter approach is based on a “Constant Power” technique. Thanks to a parcular phase combinaon between the
two ways around the crossover frequency, this approach is able to provide a very stable horizontal coverage and a very stable o-
axys sound image, also minimizing unwanted eects around the crossover frequency. The further applicaon of phase linearizaon
techniques, combined to constant power crossover, yield a linear phase response and a coherent me response. This allows for a
natural percepon of acousc instruments and voices and for an improved depth of the sound image.

Useful tools to set up properly a vercal array system
This is a list of tools that can be very useful to set properly a vercal array system.
CABLE TESTER
It is a good pracce to check all cables before each installaon,
because even one faulty cable can compromise heavily the
system performance.
INCLINOMETER WITH LEVER
This tool can be used to verify the vercal array angle. It can
be used at the top or at the boom of the array In this case
you have to sum all splay angles, so the maximum precision is
needed for aiming the vercal array, parcularly for long throw
applicaons.
LASER DISTANCE METER
This instrument can be useful to measure the height of the
vercal array and to know the distance between FOH-Subs and
FOH-Array for seng the delay me.
SMAART or similar acousc measurement system
These are useful to measure delays, phase and response of the
system.

PREDICTION SOFTWARE: EASE FOCUS 3
To aim correctly a complete system we suggests to use always the Aiming Soware - EASE Focus 3:
The EASE Focus 3 Aiming Soware is a 3D Acousc Modelling Soware that serves for the conguraon and modelling of Line
Arrays and convenonal speakers close to reality. It only considers the direct eld, created by the complex addion of the sound
contribuons of the individual loudspeakers or array components.
The design of EASE Focus is targeted at the end user. It allows the easy and quick predicon of the array performance in a given
venue. The scienc base of EASE Focus stems from EASE, the professional electro- and room acousc simulaon soware developed
by AFMG Technologies GmbH. It is based on the EASE GLL loudspeaker data le required for its use. The GLL le contains the data
that denes the Line Array with regard to its possible conguraons as well as to its geometrical and acouscal properes.
Download the EASE Focus 3 app from the AXIOM website at hps://www.axiomproaudio.com/ clicking on downloads
secon of the product.
Use the menu opon Edit / Import System Denion File to import the GLL le, the detailed instrucons to use the program are
located in the menu opon Help / User’s Guide.
Note: Some windows system can require the .NET Framework 4 that can be download from website at hps://focus.afmg.eu/.
BASIC INSTALLING OPERATION
The EASE FOCUS predicon soware is the tool that allows you to evaluate your installaon both to meet the acousc requirements
of the project and also to suspend or stack AX2010 systems, the program allows you to simulate the rigging pinpoint on the y bar
to obtain the calculated splay angle of the enre line array system and of the individual angles between each loudspeaker element.
The following examples shows how to operate correctly to link the loudspeaker box and to suspend or stack the whole system safely
and surely, read these instrucons with extreme aenon:
WARNING! CAREFULLY READ THE FOLLOWING INSTRUCTIONS AND CONDITION OF USE:
• This loudspeaker is designed exclusively for Professional audio applicaons. The product must be installed by qualied personal
only.
• Proel strongly recommends that this loudspeaker cabinet be suspended taking into consideraon all current Naonal, Federal,
State and Local regulaons. Please contact the manufacturer for further informaon.
• Proel do not accept any liability for damage caused to third pares due to improper installaon, lack of maintenance, tampering
or improper use of this product, including disregard of acceptable and applicable safety standards.
• During assembly pay aenon to the possible risk of crushing. Wear suitable protecve clothing. Observe all instrucons given
on the rigging components and the loudspeaker cabinets. When chain hoists are in operaon ensure that there is nobody directly
underneath or in the vicinity of the load. Do not under any circumstances climb on the array.
• Wind loads
When planning an open-air event it is essenal to obtain current weather and wind informaon. When loudspeaker arrays are own
in an open-air environment, possible wind eects must be taken into account. Wind load produces addional dynamic forces acng
on the rigging components and the suspension, which may lead to a dangerous situaon. If according to the forecast wind forces
higher than 5 b (29-38 Km/h) are possible, the following acons have to be taken:
- The actual on-site wind speed has to be monitored permanently. Be aware that wind speed typically increases with height above
ground.
- Suspension and securing points of the array should be designed to support double the stac load in order to withstand any
addional dynamic forces.
WARNING!
Flying loudspeakers overhead at wind forces higher than 6 b (39-49 Km/h) is not recommended. If the wind force exceeds
7 b (50-61 Km/h) there is a risk of mechanical damage to the components which may lead to a dangerous situaon for
persons in the vicinity of the own array.
- Stop the event and make sure that no person remains in the vicinity of the array.
- Lower and secure the array.

Fly bar suspension and angle setup (centre of gravity)
The gure shows where the normal centre of gravity is with one box or several boxes arranged in a line. Usually the boxes are
arranged to make an arc for the best coverage of the audience, so the center of gravity moves backward. The aiming soware
suggests the ideal suspension pinpoint taking into account this behaviour: x the straight shackle in this posion.
Note that the ideal aiming angle oen doesn’t correspond to the pinpoint: there is oen a lile dierence between ideal aiming
and real aiming and its value is the Delta angle: posive delta angle can be adjusted a lile using two ropes, negave delta angle are
self adjusted a lile because the cables weight on the back of the array. With some experience it’s possible to consider prevenvely
these required lile adjustments.
During the own set up you can connect the elements of the array to their cables. We suggest to discharge the weight of the cables
from the ying pinpoint by tying them with a texle bre rope, instead of leng them hang freely: in this way the posion of the
array will be much more similar to the simulaon produced by the soware.
Pin locking and splay angles set up
The gures below shows how to insert correctly the locking pin, always carefully check that each pin is fully inserted and locked in
the correct posion. Set up the splay angle between loudspeakers inserng the pin in the correct hole, please note that the inner
hole in the hinge top is for whole angles (1, 2, 3 etc.) while the outer hole is for the half angles (0.5, 1.5, 2.5 etc.).

FLY BAR AND ACCESSORIES
The AX2010 Systems are built to allow the suspension of array with variable shape and dimensions. Thanks to a suspension
mechanism designed to be funconal, exible and safe, each system must be suspended or stacked using the KPTAX2012P y bar.
The loudspeakers are linked together in a column using a series of couplers integrated in the frame of each enclosure. Each system
is set up properly both acouscally and mechanically only using the aiming soware.
Coupling system in the front does not require any adjustment: using two locking pins, each loudspeaker box is xed to the previous.
The sloed bar in the back is inserted in a U-shaped frame which features a series of numbered holes. Sliding the sloed bar in
the U-shaped frame of the next loudspeaker and inserng a locking pin in one of the numbered holes, it is possible to adjust the
relave splay angle between two adjacent loudspeakers in the array column.
KPTAX2012P y bar maximum capacity is 700 Kg (1540 lbs) with the 0° angle. It can support up to 12 AX2010 loudspeakers
with a safety factor of 10:1.

Follow the sequence in the gure for xing the y bar at the rst box. Usually this is the rst step before liing up the system. Be
careful to insert properly all the locking pins (2)(3) and the shackle (5) in the right holes as specied by the aiming soware.
When liing the system always proceed gradually step by step, paying aenon to secure the y bar to the box (and the box to the
other boxes) before pulling up the system: this makes easier to insert properly the locking pins. Also when the system is released
down, unlock gradually the pins.
During the liing be very careful to not let the cables enter the space between one enclosure and the other, as their compression
could cut them.

SYSTEM PROCESSING BASIC INSTRUCTIONS
The AX2012P system do not feature passive lters and, to work, it needs an external processor to take care of crossover ltering,
temporal alignment and protecon of all devices. Proel provides PC260 digital processor which comes with the basic preset for the
AX2010. The opmizaon of vercal array systems through digital processing is based on data obtained through measurements
of the polar response throughout space and on their elaboraon through purpose-designed mathemacal models. For detailed
instrucons about PC260 refer to its proper manual.
The preset provided for the AX2012P allow the correct operaon of the system, provide the best starng point for setup of temporal
alignment, gain adjustment and, eventually, system equalizaon.
The preset is made considering several AX2010P boxes and most commonly used types of subwoofers in various conguraon, the
following gure shows a conguraon example of a typical applicaon of AX2010P vercal array:
Follows a list of currently available preset downloadable from the Axiomproaudio website, all these must be considered a good
start point for your system and applicaon in site.
AX2010P/SW3XFP - Presets for PC260 Release 2.2 (PC260 and HPX8000 power ampliers).
All the presets are intended for the use of SW36XFP subwoofer own ontop of the array.
• STANDARD PRESET (name: AX2010P+SW36XFP_STANDARD v2_2.pcf): This PRESET is suitable for vercal own arrays that may
range from 4 to 8 boxes or for the centre region of a bigger own array. It can be used also for stacked arrays.
• LONG THROW PRESET (name: AX2010P+SW36XFP_LONGTHROW v2_2.pcf): This PRESET can be used in arrays bigger than 6 or 8
boxes and loaded in the top 1 or 2 boxes in order to obtain a more even distribuon of the sound pressure, especially if they
point very far away or to the upper deck of a large theatre.
• SINGLE/DOWN-FILL PRESET (name: AX2010P+SW36XFP_DOWNFILL v2_2.pcf): This PRESET, which features a much smoother
high frequency response, can be loaded in the boom boxes (usually 1 or 2 boxes) of a large own array, in order to reach
conveniently the audience close to the stage. This preset could be very useful also when the box is used just on its own as a
Front Fill element in the front of very large stages.
AX2010P/SW121HLP - Presets for PC260 Release 1.2 (PC260 and HPX8000 power ampliers).

AX2010P/SW218P - Presets for PC260 Release 4.2 (PC260 and HPX6000 power ampliers).
All the presets are intended for the use of SW218P subwoofer placed on the ground underneath the own array.
• STANDARD PRESET (name: AX2010P+SW218P_STANDARD v4_2.pcf): This PRESET is suitable for vercal own arrays that may
range from 4 to 8 boxes or for the centre region of a bigger own array. It can be used also for stacked arrays.
• LONG THROW PRESET (name: AX2010P+SW218P_LONGTHROW v4_2.pcf): This PRESET can be used in arrays bigger than 6 or 8
boxes and loaded in the top 1 or 2 boxes in order to obtain a more even distribuon of the sound pressure, especially if they
point very far away or to the upper deck of a large theatre.
• SINGLE/DOWN-FILL PRESET (name: AX2010P+SW218P_DOWNFILL v4_2.pcf): This PRESET, which features a much smoother
high frequency response, can be loaded in the boom boxes (usually 1 or 2 boxes) of a large own array, in order to reach
conveniently the audience close to the stage. This preset could be very useful also when the box is used just on its own as a
Front Fill element in the front of very large stages.
AX2010P/SW218XP - Presets for PC260 Release 2.2 (PC260 and HPX8000 power ampliers).
All the presets are intended for the use of SW218XP subwoofer placed on the ground underneath the own array.
• STANDARD PRESET (name: AX2010P+SW218XP_STANDARD v2_2.pcf): This PRESET is suitable for vercal own arrays that may
range from 4 to 8 boxes or for the centre region of a bigger own array. It can be used also for stacked arrays.
• LONG THROW PRESET (name: AX2010P+SW218XP_LONGTHROW v2_2.pcf): This PRESET can be used in arrays bigger than 6 or 8
boxes and loaded in the top 1 or 2 boxes in order to obtain a more even distribuon of the sound pressure, especially if they
point very far away or to the upper deck of a large theatre.
• SINGLE/DOWN-FILL PRESET (name: AX2010P+SW218XP_DOWNFILL v2_2.pcf): This PRESET, which features a much smoother
high frequency response, can be loaded in the boom boxes (usually 1 or 2 boxes) of a large own array, in order to reach
conveniently the audience close to the stage. This preset could be very useful also when the box is used just on its own as a
Front Fill element in the front of very large stages.
In the PC260 preset some parameters can be customized and some other are protected, this ensure a safe operaon of the system.
In the next page follows a brief descripon of customizable parameters:
IN: In this screen you can adjust the input levels and the input compressors.
The input range can be opmized in the -30 ÷ +6 dB range. The level is set aer the
AD conversion, so if you have problems with an excessive input signal use the analog
PAD buon on the PC260 back panel.
The compressors are set in order to aenuate very high input signals (the threshold
is +11 dB), ensuring a more transparent musical behaviour of the system liming. If
needed, the compressor threshold can be freely adjusted.
OUT: in this page you can see the level of the output signals and the gain reducon
if the limiters are acvated. You can also trim (±6 dB) the output signals in order to
adjust the balance of LF, MF and HF ranges.
WARNING!
The limiter seng of PC260 and most preset is set for the use of 32 dB xed
gain power ampliers: contact PROEL if you need a dierent seng.
The delays are set for the optimal alignment of a standard flown
conguraon with the vercal array on top of the subwoofers.
If needed, the delay of the subwoofers (LOW-L and LOW) can be adjusted in
relaon to the MID-HIGH outputs for the opmal alignment when the system
is installed in a dierent posion.
WARNING!
The DELAY dierence between MID and HIGH outputs must always be 14.3
mm (HIGH before MID). If you modify the MID delay to align the tops with
the subs, remember always to set the HIGH delay accordingly (-14.3 mm).
GEQ: this is the graphic equalizer on the processor inputs to be used for equalizing
the whole system. It can be used for adjusng the system’s response or for xing
parcular frequency problems in the environment where the system is installed. The
AX2010P preset has been prepared in order to obtain the best performance from the
system, so we suggest to avoid extreme use of the GEQ.

15
PEQ: this is a full parametric 5-band equalizer on the processor’s inputs. Each lters
can be set also as shelving, notch, allpass, high-pass and lo-pass, so this equalizer
can be used to optimize the system response according to the environment
characteriscs, including temperature, humidity and absorpon due to the audience.
DEQ: this is 3-band dynamic equalizer useful to opmize the system’s response for
dierent kind of applicaons and dierent music genres, or to obtain an opmal
behaviour of the system at dierent levels.
PRESET USING EXAMPLE: INSTALLATION IN A THEATRE WITH BALCONY
In the following gure you can see an example of the use of dierent PRESETS in an AX2010P own array installed in a big theatre
with balcony:
• The TOP BOXES of the array are aiming at the balcony
while the DOWN FILL box is aiming at the audience close
to the stage.
• TOP BOXES: the power level at the end of the balcony
is lower, as well as the high frequency level.
• DOWN FILL BOXES: the power level in the proximity of
the stage is higher, as well as the high frequency level.
In order to opmize the array performances for the
specic applicaon, the PRESETS should be used in the
following way.
• Load the STANDARD preset in the central boxes.
• Load the LONG THROW preset in the TOP 1 or 2 boxes,
in order to compensate the loss of power level and
high frequencies of the program sent the upper deck
of the theatre.
• Load the DOWN FILL / SINGLE BOX preset in the
BOTTOM box in order to smooth the high frequency
content of the program sent to the audience close to
the stage.
