Using the Biamp Cambridge Qt X 805 is quite straightforward. First, connect it to your paging controllers or background music players through the two auxiliary audio inputs. Then, set up the sound masking speakers according to your installation type - direct - field, indirect (in - plenum), or a mix. You can independently adjust each of the eight amplified output speakers for masking and auxiliary audio levels and spectra. When multiple Qt X controllers are in a system, make sure to configure the AVB or Dante settings to share audio inputs. For safety, note that it integrates with fire alarm systems, so don't tamper with this connection. To keep it in good condition, regularly check the front panel LCD for any error messages. Clean the device with a soft, dry cloth. If you need to lock the panel, use the software control. And don't forget to keep it updated with the latest system management software for optimal performance. It's covered by a five - year warranty, so if you encounter any major issues, reach out to Biamp Systems.
