IQ-PIP-  
USP3/CN  
he Crown® IQ-PIP-USP3/CN is a 3rd  
generationDSP-based PIP™ (Program-  
Features  
Input compressors and output limiters for each  
channel  
T
mable Input Processor) input module for  
PIP2™ compatible amplifiers.* It connects the  
amplifier to a 100 Mb Ethernet network allow-  
ing it to be remotely controlled and monitored  
via System Architect or IQwic™ software. In  
addition, the USP3/CN allows the transport of  
real-time digital audio via CobraNet over the  
same Ethernet network.  
100Mb Ethernet single-plug solution for  
CobraNet audio, and HiQnet or TCP/IQ control  
and monitoring  
Dual, uncorrelated noise generators for noise  
masking  
Analog audio inputs allow CobraNet network  
audio input, CobraNet audio backup, or a hard-  
wire emergency override of CobraNet audio  
Sine generator  
Load supervision  
“Listen Bus” amplifier output monitor via  
CobraNet  
Full error reporting  
The USP3/CN is a HiQnet and TCP/IQ series  
component and connects to the audio con-  
trol/monitor network using a standard 100Mb  
Ethernet hardware (switches, Network Interface  
Cards, and cables). CobraNet™ audio is avail-  
able over the same 100Mb Ethernet network,  
providing a simple to install, single plug  
solution for audio distribution, control, and  
monitoring.  
Firmware upgrades via the network  
10 user selectable presets  
24 bit digital to analog conversion with 32 bit,  
floating point DSP processing  
Reliable FLASH memory backup of all param-  
eters  
64 assignable filters with 9 different filter types  
including all-pass filters  
Three Year, No-Fault, Fully Transferable War-  
ranty completely protects your investment and  
guarantees its specifications  
Over 2 seconds of delay available per  
channel  
The USP3/CN’s SHARC DSP processor gives  
the user an enormous amount of digital signal  
processing. Audio routing, faders, meters,  
polarity & mute, input compressors, filters,  
delays, multimode output limiters, error report-  
ing, and load monitoring are all available. A  
built in noise generator and sine-wave genera-  
tor provide noise masking and test capabilities.  
The enhanced AUX port capability allows the  
user to interface with the amplifier to provide  
external manual control and monitoring.  
Connectors:  
Balanced Audio Input Connector  
Single 5-pin removable barrier-strip connector  
for both channels.  
Switches:  
Reset/Preset Switch  
Used to change presets, restore settings to fac-  
tory default or restore all the presets to the fac-  
tory defaults. During operations of the switch,  
the Data indicator flashes as an aid to the user.  
AUX Connector  
Configurable for AUX input or AUX output.  
Listen Bus is available through CobraNet.  
Memory Backup: 512 kbyte non-volatile FLASH  
memory for backup of run-time parameters,  
presets, and program storage. Capable of  
greater than 10 year data retention and esti-  
mated 20+ year life-cycle.  
Network Connector  
Offering crisp, clear sound and the wide  
dynamic range possible with CobraNet, the IQ-  
PIP-USP3/CN provides unprecedented power  
and flexibility in one compact—and very afford-  
able—module.  
The dual RJ45 CobraNet connectors allow a  
Primary & Secondary connection to the 100Mb  
Ethernet network. Should the Primary con-  
nection lose link activity with the network,  
the USP3/CN will automatically switch to the  
Secondary connection to ensure uninterrupted  
audio and control. The indicators on the RJ45  
connectors display network information con-  
cerning the Ethernet and CobraNet connections.  
Communications: 100Mb Fast Ethernet con-  
forming to IEEE 802.3.  
Power Requirements (provided by the ampli-  
fier): +24VDC @ 350mA, –24VDC @ 30mA.  
< 8.7 Watts.  
The IQ-PIP-USP3/CN requires Harman Pro  
System Architect software or IQwic software

Indicators:  
DSP Processing: 32 bit, Floating Point,  
665 µs latency.  
Preset Indicator  
DAC Conversion: 24 bit, 135 µs latency.  
Signals the number of the current preset, if  
active, by flashing a series of flashes equal to  
the current preset number.  
Dynamic Range: 103 dB typical  
(A-weighted, 20Hz–20kHz, audio sourced  
from muted CobraNet channel).  
* You must have a PIP2-compatible amplifier to use the IQ-  
PIP-USP3/CN. To determine if your amplifier is PIP2-compat-  
ible, look for the  
logo on the back of the amplifier.  
IQ Data Indicator  
The IQ-PIP-USP3/CN is NOT compatible with older Crown  
PIP amplifiers, and cannot be used with CT210 or MA3600  
amplifiers  
Distortion: < 0.05% THD+N, 20Hz–20kHz.  
Flashes when the IQ-PIP-USP3/CN receives a  
valid command that is addressed to the IQ-PIP-  
USP3/CN.  
Frequency Response: 0.5 dB,  
20Hz–20kHz.  
Specifications  
General  
Internal Controls: A Reset/Preset switch,  
accessible with a straightened paper clip  
through the PIP panel, selects the next user  
preset if pressed for less than 2 seconds,  
resets the PIP to preset “0” if pressed for more  
than 2 seconds.  
Input/Output Monitor Accuracy: Typically  
1dB.
