UP-4XP UltraCompact Loudspeaker

The UP-4XP boasts a wide operating frequency range of

66 Hz to 18 kHz and a maximum peak SPL of 121 dB, with very low distortion. The unit's high-frequency section includes a 1-inch metal dome tweeter on a constant-directivity, high-frequency horn with a 100-degree beamwidth.

The low/mid-frequency section includes two 4-inch cone transducers that work in parallel at low frequencies — delivering a combined acoustic output — with one of the drivers rolling off at higher frequencies to prevent interference (due to comb filtering effects) in the crossover region. The proprietary UP-4XP drivers, which are manufactured at Meyer

Sound's factory in Berkeley, California, are powered by three channels of onboard power amplification that include an active crossover, driver protection, and frequency and phase correction circuitry.

7

CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION

The UP-4XP is available with either a Phoenix™ 5-pin male or sealed SwitchCraft ® EN3™ male connector for receiving balanced audio and DC power. Powering the unit from an external source eliminates the need for wiring conduits while still preserving the advantages of self-powered systems.

The UP-4XP's amplifier and signal-processing circuits are designed to store DC power and tolerate voltage drops, thereby accommodating light-gauge cables and lengthy cable runs.

UP-4XP loudspeaker systems require a 48 V DC external power supply, such as Meyer Sound’s MPS-488HP. The single-space 19-inch rack unit receives eight channels of balanced audio from its XLR female Channel Inputs and routes the audio, along with 48 V of DC power, to its eight Channel

Outputs. The Channel Outputs, which are available as either

Phoenix 5-pin male connectors or SwitchCraft EN3 5-pin female connectors, can deliver DC power to up to eight

UP-4XP loudspeakers.

Cable lengths up to 150 feet for DC power are possible when using 18-AWG wire, with just 1 dB of loss in peak SPL.

Longer cable runs are possible for moderate applications that don't drive the loudspeakers to maximum output, or for installations with heavier wire gauges. The use of composite multiconductor cables (such as Belden ® 1502 or equivalent) allows a single cable to carry both DC power and balanced audio to the UP-4XPs.

TIP: For complete information on using the

MPS-488HP external power supply, refer to the

MPS-488HP Operating Instructions.

NOTE: The MPS-488HP external power supply replaces the MPS-488 model, which was originally designed for use with MM-4XP loudspeakers.

The MPS-488 is also compatible with UP-4XP loudspeakers and can drive up to four units (using every other Channel Output).

The UP-4XP's durable cabinet is coated with a black textured finish and includes top and bottom mounting plates with 3/8-16 or metric M10 threads. QuickFly mounting options include the MUB–UP4 U-bracket, MYA–UP4 cradlestyle yoke, and 1 3/8-inch (35 mm) diameter pole-mount adaptor. Other UP-4XP options include weather protection

(with the sealed EN3 connector) and custom color finishes for installations and applications with specific cosmetic

CHAPTER 2: UP-4XP LOUDSPEAKER

The UP-4XP is powered by an external 48 V DC power supply, eliminating the need for wiring conduits while still preserving the advantages of self-powered loudspeaker systems. The unit's onboard amplifier and signal-processing circuits were designed to store DC power and tolerate voltage drops, thereby accommodating light-gauge cables and lengthy cable runs.

UP-4XP INPUT CONNECTOR

The UP-4XP loudspeaker is available with either a Phoenix

5-pin male or SwitchCraft EN3 5-pin male connector for receiving DC power and balanced audio. The EN3 connector is ideal for outdoor, all-weather use. The input connector’s five pins include two for DC power (negative and positive) and three for balanced audio (shield, negative, and positive). These pins are clearly labeled on the UP-4XP rear panel. To function properly, the UP-4XP requires 48 V of DC power.

UP-4XP Rear Panel

UP-4XP with EN3 5-Pin Male Connector

Depending on the loudspeaker’s connector, the UP-4XP ships with either a single Phoenix cable mount connector or a 10-foot (3 meter) EN3-to-pigtail cable for constructing loudspeaker cables. For information on UP-4XP cable

requirements, see “UP-4XP Current Draw and Cable

Requirements” on page 13. For information on cables and

cable accessories available from Meyer Sound, see

Appendix A, “UP-4XP Accessories.” For information on

cable assembly, see Appendix B, “Phoenix and EN3 Cable

Assembly.”

CHAPTER 2: UP-4XP LOUDSPEAKER

!

CAUTION: When wiring UP-4XP loudspeaker cables, it is extremely important that each pin be wired correctly. Make sure the 48 V DC from the external power supply is wired directly (and only) to the 48 V DC pins on the UP-4XP loudspeaker connector, and that the polarity is observed (negative to negative, positive to positive) to avoid damage to the loudspeaker. In addition, make sure that audio pins are wired correctly; polarity reversals for audio signals affect system performance.

UP-4XP LED

The UP-4XP has a three-color LED on its rear panel that changes color to indicate the loudspeaker’s status.

Powering On (Green)

When powering up the UP-4XP loudspeaker, the following startup events occur and are indicated by the LED:

1. The LED flashes multiple colors during power-up sequence.

2. After a pause, the LED turns solid green, indicating the power-up sequence has completed and the loudspeaker is ready to reproduce audio.

!

CAUTION: If after the power-up sequence the

LED does not turn solid green (instead flashes multiple colors or stays solid red) and the UP-4XP does not output audio, the loudspeaker has encountered an error and may need to be serviced. Contact

Meyer Sound Technical Support.

Limiting (Yellow)

The UP-4XP LED turns yellow to indicate limiting. When the

LED is solid yellow, limiting is engaged for the high-frequency channel. When the LED flashes yellow (on and off), limiting is engaged for the low-frequency channels. When limiting is engaged for a channel, its gain is reduced. When engaged, the limiter protects the loudspeaker’s drivers and prevents signal peaks from causing excessive distortion in the loudspeaker’s amplifier, thereby preserving headroom and maintaining smooth frequency responses at high levels.

When source levels return to normal, below the limiter’s threshold, the LED turns green and limiting ceases.

The UP-4XP performs within its acoustical specifications at normal temperatures when the UP-4XP LED is green, or when limiting is not continuous. If limiting activity is continuous, the loudspeaker is nearing the limits of its operating capabilities where:

Increases to the input level have no effect.

Distortion increases due to clipping and nonlinear driver operation.

■ The drivers are subjected to excessive heat and excursion, which will compromise their life span and may eventually lead to damage over time.

!

CAUTION: The UP-4XP LED turns yellow when the loudspeaker’s signal rises 2 dB above the limiting threshold, and indicates a safe, optimum level has been exceeded. If the UP-4XP loudspeakers in a system begin to limit before reaching the desired

SPL, consider adding more loudspeakers to the system to achieve the desired SPL without exposing the loudspeakers to excessive levels and possible overheating.

!

CAUTION: If after the power-up sequence (or during operating) the LED turns solid red and the loudspeaker continues to output audio, the loudspeaker’s voltage may have dropped below 25 V DC.

When encountering these conditions, operation of the loudspeaker should cease and its power supply and cabling should be verified.

UP-4XP Temperature and Limiting

The UP-4XP LED turns solid yellow when its heat sink temperature reaches 65° C (145° F), indicating the unit is reaching its maximum heat dissipation and a reduction in SPL is recommended. While the UP-4XP will continue to operate while the LED is yellow, the limiter threshold is lowered to a safe level (causing the output level to be lowered by 3 dB) to prevent the loudspeaker from overheating. When the temperature of the heat sink cools to 50°C (122°F), the LED changes from yellow to green and the limiter threshold returns to normal.

12

UP-4XP OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Clipping (Red)

The UP-4XP turns red when the loudspeaker’s input stage clips, causing the amplifier to overload. When the LED is red, the source level should be reduced.

!

CAUTION: If the UP-4XP LED turns solid red and the loudspeaker continues to output audio, though at reduced levels, the loudspeaker’s voltage may have dropped below 25 V DC. When these conditions are encountered, operation of the loudspeaker should cease and its power supply and cabling should be verified.

Cable Lengths and Cable Gauges for UP-4XP

Loudspeakers

Cable lengths up to 150 feet between the UP-4XP and its external power supply are supported with only 1 dB of peak

SPL loss using 18 AWG wire. Longer cable lengths are possible with heavier wire gauges (see Table 1 and Table 2).

UP-4XP CURRENT DRAW AND CABLE

REQUIREMENTS

Each UP-4XP loudspeaker draws a maximum current of

4.05 A continuous and 4.50 A peak from its external 48 V

DC power supply. The current draw for the UP-4XP is dynamic and fluctuates as operating levels change. The cabling between the UP-4XP and its external power supply adds resistance and hence causes a voltage drop at the loudspeaker. Because lower DC voltages compromise amplifier performance (peak SPL), and in some cases frequency response, cable resistance should be kept to a minimum.

NOTE: For long cable runs, you can use a large cable gauge for DC power and a separate balanced audio cable for audio. For more information,

see “Long Cable Runs with Separate Cable for DC

Power and Audio” on page 14.

NOTE: The total cable resistance between the

UP-4XP and its external power supply should not exceed 2 ohms.

Calculating the Maximum Cable Length

The maximum cable length for a UP-4XP can be calculated with the following formula: maximum length = 2 ohms / 2 * cable resistance

For example, the maximum length of an 18 AWG cable with a resistance of 0.00636 is 157.2 feet (2 / 2 * 0.00636).

13

CHAPTER 2: UP-4XP LOUDSPEAKER

WIRING UP-4XP LOUDSPEAKER CABLES

WITH BELDEN 1502 CABLE (OR EQUIVALENT)

The most convenient method of wiring UP-4XP loudspeaker cables is with a multiconductor cable such as Belden 1502, which has dedicated conductors for DC power and balanced audio in a single jacket. When wiring UP-4XP loudspeaker cables with Belden 1502, use the conventions in

Table 3. The red and black wires are 18 AWG, thicker than the other three wires, and should be used for DC power

(cable lengths up to 150 feet are possible with just 1 dB of peak SPL loss). The blue, white, and shield drain wires are shielded together and should be used for audio.

with the MPS-488HPp). The pigtail can also be spliced to a longer loudspeaker cable or to a junction box. The included

EN3-to-pigtail cable uses Belden 1502 cable (or equivalent), which can be wired for both DC power and balanced audio.

The EN3-to-pigtail cable is available in plenum or regular

(non-plenum) versions.

NOTE: For a complete list of cables and cable connectors available from Meyer Sound that can be used with the UP-4XP loudspeaker, see

Appendix A, “UP-4XP Accessories.”

LONG CABLE RUNS WITH SEPARATE CABLE

FOR DC POWER AND AUDIO

For installations where Belden 1502 is not feasible, or for installations that require cable runs longer than 150 feet, you can use separate cables for DC power and balanced audio: a large-gauge cable for DC and a high-quality, balanced audio cable for audio. The separate cables attach to the

Phoenix connecter at the loudspeaker as shown in the

Figure 4. Cable runs longer than 150 feet for DC power require cable gauges larger than 18 AWG; for more informa-

CAUTION: When wiring UP-4XP loudspeaker cables, it is extremely important that each pin be wired correctly. Make sure the 48 V DC from the external power supply is wired directly (and only) to the 48 V DC pins on the UP-4XP loudspeaker connector, and that the polarity is observed (negative to negative, positive to positive) to avoid damage to the loudspeaker. In addition, make sure that audio pins are wired correctly; polarity reversals for audio signals affect system performance.

NOTE: For more information about cable

assembly and pin-outs, see Appendix B,

“Phoenix and EN3 Cable Assembly.”

Wiring EN3-to-Pigtail Cables

UP-4XP loudspeakers equipped with EN3 connectors are shipped with one EN3 5-pin female-to-pigtail cable. The

EN3 end of the cable connects directly to the UP-4XP input connector. The pigtail end of the cable, which connects to the loudspeaker’s external power supply, can be terminated with either an EN3 5-pin male connector (included with the

MPS-488HPe) or Phoenix 5-pin female connector (included

CHAPTER 3: POWERING UP-4XP LOUDSPEAKERS

CONNECTING UP-4XP LOUDSPEAKERS TO

THE MPS-488HP EXTERNAL POWER SUPPLY

UP-4XP loudspeakers require a Meyer Sound 48 V DC external power supply, such the MPS-488HP. The singlespace 19-inch rack unit receives eight channels of balanced audio from its XLR female Channel Inputs and routes the audio, along with 48 V of DC power, to its eight Channel

Outputs. The Channel Outputs, which are available as either

Phoenix 5-pin male connectors or SwitchCraft EN3 5-pin female connectors, can deliver DC power to up to eight

UP-4XP loudspeakers. Cable lengths up to 150 feet for DC power are possible when using 18-AWG wire, with just 1 dB of loss in peak SPL. Longer cable runs are possible for moderate applications that don't drive the loudspeakers to maximum output, or for installations with heavier wire gauges.

The use of composite multiconductor cables (such as

Belden 1502 or equivalent) allows a single cable to carry both DC power and balanced audio to the UP-4XPs.

■ When connecting UP-4XP loudspeakers equipped with

Phoenix connectors to the MPS-488HPp power supply, use Phoenix 5-pin male to Phoenix 5-pin female cables.

TIP: For complete information on using the

MPS-488HP external power supply, refer to the

MPS-488HP Operating Instructions.

MPS-488HPp

To connect UP-4XP loudspeakers to the MPS-488HP:

1. Power off the MPS-488HP.

2. Connect audio sources (from a mixer or processor) to the

MPS-488HP Channel Inputs. Use balanced XLR cables.

3. Use the MPS-488HP Link switches to route Channel

Inputs to the desired Channel Outputs. For information on the MPS-488HP Link switches, refer to the

MPS-488HP Operating Instructions.

4. Connect the UP-4XP loudspeakers to the MPS-488HP

Channel Outputs. Use composite cables (such as

Belden 1502 or equivalent) wired for both DC power and balanced audio and outfitted with the appropriate connectors.

MPS-488HPp with Eight UP-4XP Loudspeakers

TIP: You can use two separate cables for

UP-4XP loudspeaker connections: a 2-conductor cable for DC power and a 3-conductor cable for balanced audio, both attached to a single Phoenix connector on each cable end. This allows you to use a larger gauge for the DC cable so you can achieve

longer cable runs (see “Cable Lengths and Cable

Gauges for UP-4XP Loudspeakers” on page 13).

15

CHAPTER 3: POWERING UP-4XP LOUDSPEAKERS

■ When connecting UP-4XP loudspeakers equipped with

EN3 connectors to the MPS-488HPe power supply, use

EN3 5-pin male to EN3 5-pin female cables.

■ To join two EN3 cables, one with an EN3 5-pin male cable mount connector to one with an EN3 5-pin female cable mount connector, use an EN3 5-pin female-tomale cable coupler (PN 28.163.033.01).

UP-4XP OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

CONNECTING UP-4XP LOUDSPEAKERS TO

THE MPS-488 EXTERNAL POWER SUPPLY

The original MPS-488 was designed for use with the

MM-4XP miniature loudspeaker. While the MPS-488 can power up to eight MM-4XP loudspeakers, it can only power up to four UP-4XP loudspeakers (due to the UP-4XP’s higher power requirements and current draw).

Because the MPS-488 can power a maximum of four

UP-4XP loudspeakers, the loudspeakers should only be connected to Channel Outputs 1, 3, 5, and 7. Do not use the even-numbered channel outputs.

NOTE: These guidelines do not apply to the

MPS-488HP external power supply, which can drive up to eight UP-4XP loudspeakers.

NOTE: The MPS-488HP external power supply replaces the MPS-488 model, which was originally designed for use with MM-4XP loudspeakers.

The MPS-488 is also compatible with UP-4XP loudspeakers and can drive up to four units (using every other Channel Output).

The UP-4XP includes top and bottom mounting plates with

3/8-16 or metric M10 threaded nuts. QuickFly mounting options include the MUB-UP4 U-bracket, MYA-UP4 cradlestyle yoke, and MSA-UPM pole-mount adaptor.

IMPORTANT SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS

When installing Meyer Sound loudspeakers, the following precautions should always be observed:

■ All Meyer Sound products must be used in accordance with local, state, federal, and industry regulations. It is the owner’s and user’s responsibility to evaluate the reliability of any rigging or mounting method for their application. Rigging should only be carried out by experienced professionals.

■ Use mounting and rigging hardware that has been rated to meet or exceed the weight being hung.

■ Make sure to attach mounting hardware to the building's structural components (studs or joists), and not just to the wall surface. Verify that the building's structure and the anchors used for the installation will safely support the total weight of the mounted loudspeakers.

■ Use mounting hardware appropriate for the surface where the loudspeaker will be installed.

■ Make sure bolts are tightened securely. Meyer Sound recommends using Loctite ® on bolt threads and safety cables.

■ Inspect mounting and rigging hardware regularly. Immediately replace any worn or damaged components.

POLE-MOUNTING UP-4XP LOUDSPEAKERS

You can mount the UP-4XP on a third-party loudspeaker stand with the optional MSA-UPM stand adapter

(PN 40.086.013.01). The MSA-UPM kit includes both 3/8-16 and M10 hardware. To install the adapter, attach the adhesive-backed cork washer to the stand (not to the loudspeaker), and secure the stand to the loudspeaker with the bolt and washer.

NOTE: Bulk cables use Belden 1502R (regular) or Belden 1502P (plenum) cable. Belden 1502 is a composite cable comprised of two 18 AWG wires for DC power, two 22 AWG wires for balanced audio, and one 24 AWG wire for audio shield. This single cable can deliver both DC power and balanced audio to loudspeakers at cable runs of up to 150 feet with only 1 dB of loss in peak SPL. Longer cable runs are possible with heavier gauges for DC

power and separate cables for balanced audio. For more information, see “UP-4XP Current Draw and Cable

Requirements” on page 13.

APPENDIX B: PHOENIX AND EN3 CABLE ASSEMBLY

!

CAUTION: When wiring UP-4XP loudspeaker cables, it is extremely important that each pin be wired correctly.

Make sure the 48 V DC from the external power supply is wired directly (and only) to the 48 V DC pins on the

UP-4XP loudspeaker connector, and that the polarity is observed (negative to negative, positive to positive) to avoid damage to the loudspeaker. In addition, make sure that audio pins are wired correctly; polarity reversals for audio signals affect system performance.

ASSEMBLING EN3-TO-EN3 LOUDSPEAKER CABLES

When connecting UP-4XP loudspeakers equipped with EN3 connectors to the MPS-488HPe power supply, you need an

EN3 5-pin female to EN3 5-pin male cable. The following procedure documents how to assemble this cable. If you are starting with an EN3-to-pigtail cable, you can skip step 5 in this procedure.

NOTE: Cable mount connectors cannot connect to other cable mount connectors. Cable mount connectors can only connect to panel mount connectors (like those on the UP-4XP and MPS-488HPe) or inline connectors. To extend cables with EN3 connectors on both ends you can use an EN3 5-pin female-to-male cable coupler.

Assembled EN3-to-EN3 Cable

To assemble an EN3-to-EN3 loudspeaker cable:

1. Disassemble the EN3 5-pin male connector and feed one end of the cable through the boot, cable clamp housing, and coupling ring.
