Top View Contour Lines - Defines top view contour line SPL increments. IN the top view,
contour lines are negative (decreasing) increments starting with the highest SPL value on
the venue surface. Selectable in 1, 2 and 3 dB increments.
Design Factor - Selects the design factor as it relates to the working load limits of a design.
Resolution uses this selection to alert the user when stresses on loudspeaker rigging
components have exceeded the selected design factor.
Note: ALWAYS READ AND ABIDE BY ALL RIGGING-RELATED WARNINGS AND
INDICATIONS, INCLUDING USER MANUAL(S) AND PRODUCT-RELATED
INSTRUCTIONS AND LABELS. FAILURE TO DO SO MAY RESULT IN INJURY OR DEATH.
SI Units - All measurements are shown using the metric system
US Units - All measurements are shown using the US system.
Max SPL - SPL is measured as a maximum output per passband of a loudspeaker. In
practice this may result in an unusual tonal response since each passband is driven to its
maximum output independently (i.e. if low-frequency components in a bi-amp system are
capable of 6 dB more output than high-frequency components, the LF passband will display
as 6 dB higher). Max SPL is used as the default setting as it correctly demonstrates the
maximum output capabilities of the system.
Flat SPL - SPL is measured as the greatest output of a loudspeaker while maintaining a
consistent broadband tonal response. Processing is included in this calculation, but
Resolution does not permit equalization or gain to boost modeled output above a
loudspeaker’s actual output capabilities (i.e. a loudspeaker capable of 130 dB SPL at 1
meter cannot be ‘turned up’ to 135 dB SPL with a +5 dB gain adjustment).
ADAPTive Venue Detection Method – Toggles between adjusting vertical coverage to
extend to the sides of a venue (Wide) or to keep coverage focused to surfaces directly
in front of array (Narrow).
Tools Menu
Recalculate - Recalculates the SPL map on the defined audience plane.
Set Global Ear Height – Changes the ear height of every surface in the model (floor, seated,
standing).
Find Me (Trilateration) - Trilateration provides users with the ability to “map” a venue in
3D utilizing only two Anya arrays, a computer running both Resolution and Smaart, and a
measurement microphone.
Inventory Manager - Defines which EAW products are included in available loudspeaker
models under the Array Assistant. This is particularly useful for rental firms, as it allows the
product list to be narrowed to match their inventory.
